3 factors to consider Reputation/recommendation
Just like other businesses, lenders have reputations, and oftentimes those reputations can be determined via some simple online research. Peruse online reviews to determine what past buyers felt about a given lender. If possible, ask friends, family or colleagues who they worked with to secure a mortgage.
Fees
(METRO CREATIVE)
Page 3
Fees vary from lender to lender. Fees should not be mistaken for interest rates, which change
Personal interaction
Buyers, especially those who have never before purchased a home, will likely have lots of questions. This is where personal interaction with a prospective lender should be noted. Securing financing for a home purchase can sometimes seem like an impersonal process, but it doesn’t have to be, and many lenders are happy to answer buyers’ questions.
HOME BUYER, OWNER & RENTER
A home is the most significant purchase many people will ever make. Perhaps because of that, many buyers, particularly those purchasing a home for the first time, are understandably nervous about the home-buying process. The decision regarding which home to buy warrants ample consideration, but so, too, does the buyers’ choice of lender. Mortgage lenders can be found all over the internet, and the sheer volume of lender options can make it hard for home buyers to find the right fit for them. Couple that with lendingrelated terminology that many first-time buyers may be unfamiliar with, and it’s easy to see why prospective homeowners can feel overwhelmed about the process of borrowing money to buy
daily and are typically dictated by the financial industry and prospective buyers’ credit history and financial standing. When speaking with potential lenders, ask for a rundown of their fees, and the services those fees include, and closing cost estimates in writing, then compare and contrast fees and costs of various lenders before making a final decision. Some lenders may charge considerably more in fees than others, so buyers should put in the effort necessary to comparison shop.

their homes. When looking for a mortgage lender, prospective homeowners should never forget that the choice of lender is, in most cases, entirely theirs to make. When making that decision, a host of variables should be considered. The following are three such factors that, upon ample consideration, may help buyers rest easy knowing they did their due diligence when looking for lenders.

Whether you want to make the most of your home now, or you’re thinking of selling soon, smart upgrades can boost your enjoyment of your home and increase its resale value. Some upgrades improve the aesthetics of your house, while others help save on energy costs or improve the functionality of the home. Still others can add a touch of luxury. Why not consider smart upgrades for right now, instead of waiting until you’re ready to sell? You can certainly appreciate the upgrades now, while confident that they will pay off later. Here are some ideas.
Timeless hardwood floors Designers and real estate agents agree that installing or refinishing a hardwood floor can boost not only the look of a room, but will make the room easier to design around - and to sell. Most homebuyers look at replacing aging carpeting in a new home, to refresh and put their own stamp on rooms. Hardwood floors have long been coveted by real estate agents and luxury homeowners alike, as they provide a blank canvas to work with, allowing new homebuyers to choose area rugs and accents to create their own design aesthetic.

Smart home upgrades that will pay off later
This is one of the smartest upgrades you can make, as it improves the aesthetic from the outside (that allimportant “curb appeal”), enhances your enjoyment of rooms from the inside and reduces energy costs. Advances in technology behind high-performance window glass have made a huge difference in terms of the amount of insulation and energy-efficiency they provide. Low-emissivity coatings on glass help control heat transfer through windows that have insulated glazing. In addition, the latest window frames - from metal or fiberglass to vinyl - offer superior insulation and longlasting performance over standard wooden frames. Installing the best new windows for any room, or the entire house, offers an outstanding return on investment.
New doors Like windows, doors also present a face to potential buyers from the curb, and can help decrease energy costs.

How to refresh your home and your attitude with a deep clean
Do the deep clean Once you’ve tackled a couple of the biggest trouble spots, you’ll start to feel lighter and less stressed every time you enter that room or area of the house. You can now accomplish the cleaning and dusting under and around the
Refresh your rooms Typical cleaning products may leave your room looking good, but do they keep it smelling and feeling good every time you enter? Take the time to clear, refresh and revive your space and your mind with aromatherapy. Using essential oils from Aura Cacia refreshes the environment of your home, invigorating and energizing your spirit. The Summer Citrus Diffusion Blend, which uses 9 drops Aura Cacia’s Grapefruit Essential Oil and 9 drops of Aura Cacia’s Lemongrass Essential Oil, infuses your rooms with fresh, natural aromas.

Whether mentally or literally, tour your home and make note of the areas causing you the most tension or stress when you look at them. Is it the laundry pile that never seems to go away in the bedroom? The kitchen cabinet that’s so overstuffed that something falls out every time you open it? Prioritize the ones that bother you the most. Take a good look at each problem and prepare for a radical declutter. Maybe the laundry pile exists because your closets and dresser drawers are overfull. When
problem area that you couldn’t manage before. For each area you declutter, clean thoroughly before putting back the items you’re keeping. If it’s a drawer, wipe out the dust and grime and make sure it’s dry before replacing items. For a closet or room in the house, dust and wipe down from top to bottom, removing dirt from ceiling to floor.

Take a tour of your home
was the last time you assessed your pajamas or jeans collection? As recommended by the Kondo technique, take out the entire contents of the pajama drawer, hold and look at each item. Which ones do you really love to wear? You’ll be able to fit them back in your drawer more neatly when you have fewer items. For the others, if you don’t love them, it’s time to let them go. If you would love them “if only” they didn’t have a button missing, but you haven’t had the interest in replacing the button in over a year, it’s time to move on. Same thing with your kitchen cabinet – take out all the pots and pans and examine which ones are taking up space, but you never use. For items you only use once a year, like a roasting pan big enough for a turkey, store them elsewhere.
AUG./SEPT. 2019
The latest trend in home cleaning popularized by Marie Kondo reveals what many of us yearn for – not just decluttering, but a fresh start, a clean slate. We dream of an open, airy, bright home where everyone can thrive and be their best selves. But how do we get there, when our houses are filled with stuff – not to mention the accumulated dust? Here are three ways you can re-energize your home and yourself:
• Smart home (Continued from page 4)
The front door is an obvious place to start. You’ll want to consider your local climate and its needs, such as good weather-stripping to keep out the cold or sturdy screen doors to keep out bugs. Garage doors are also a great choice for updating, especially if they are large and highly visible. An upscale garage door is built from highly durable materials and looks as good as it functions. For any door facing the curb, including the garage door, choose a color and style that matches the overall look of your home, and that will last many years, through a variety of weather conditions.

Beautiful outdoor living space Everyone today is looking for ways to spend time outdoors comfortably - whether this means a deck, patio or gazebo. If you have a functional area outdoors, consider improvements – is
the space big enough? Could you add privacy fencing or shade? Do you want a better cooking area or fire pit for entertaining? If you don’t currently have a usable outdoor space, look at your property as a whole and consider what makes sense for the space and your lifestyle. You could consult a professional to help you design a more beautiful and comfortable outdoor space. (BPT)

7 smart steps to improve

INDOOR AIR QUALITY AT HOME
Always remember to turn on the hood fan while you’re cooking and open nearby windows and skylights. Try cooking oils with higher smoke points, so you produce fewer fumes. Palm, peanut, grapeseed, avocado and sunflower oils are good choices.
Install a skylight
You can take advantage of this natural air exchange in your home by opening a skylight or window higher in your home while also opening one below it or on a lower level. As fresh, cool air is pulled in, the warmer, polluted air will escape at the top.
Avoid burning candles Candles provide ambiance and often a pretty
Clean regularly Create a home and pet cleaning schedule, and stick to it as much as possible. Vacuuming can help eliminate dust and dander.
Dry clothes outside When the weather is nice outside, take a cue from your grandparents, and dry clothes outside naturally with the sunshine and breeze.
