2 HOMEFINDER WEEKLY Reference Guide Inc. Cornwall/S.D. & G. 613.935.7503 www.homefinderweekly.com May 31st to June 7th, 2012

By Jason GadboisState Farm® agent

Lightning brightens the sky

and provides a spectacular

display of Mother Nature’s

power. This awesome phenome-

non also causes more deaths and

property destruction in a typical

year than floods, hurricanes and

tornadoes combined.

Don’t underestimate the dangers

of lightning

The threat of lightning danger

can occur anytime, but the most

likely time for damaging thunder-

storms is June through August.

The early spring is also a vulnera-

ble period.

Scientifically speaking, light-

ning is the visible discharge of

electrical energy. It is often accom-

panied by thunder, which is a sonic

boom created by the same electri-

cal discharge.

This electrical energy seeks a

path to ground and that path can be

your home, a tree in your yard, or

even you! The key to your protec-

tion is diverting that discharge to a

grounding path away from people

and property.

A lightning protection system

has two objectives: Provide a

direct path for the lightning to fol-

low to the ground and prevent

destruction, damage, injury or

death as it travels that path.

Many of you are likely aware

of lightning rods. Contrary to typi-

cal references to these devices,

lightning rods do not attract light-

ning. They also cannot prevent

lightning from striking your home.

What they are designed to do is

provide that safe path to the

ground for the electrical current.

Rods are just one part of an effec-

tive lightning protection system. If

you’re serious about lightning pro-

tection, State Farm recommends

you have a qualified contractor

evaluate your home, explain the

many parts of a total system and

perform the installation.

While lightning’s first target

may be your house, there’s also a

need to protect the property inside

your home from the electrical

surges that accompany a lightning

strike. Surge protection devices

installed at the main electrical

panel or meter and at outlets serv-

ing electronics can often prevent

these sudden spikes in electrical

current from damaging TVs,

VCRs, computers and other expen-

sive electronic devices.

Personal safety first

Most importantly, protect

yourself. If lightning is present,

seek shelter inside an enclosed

building or vehicle, stay away

from electrical appliances and

avoid using the telephone. If you

cannot find shelter, stay close to

the ground in a low-lying area,

avoiding isolated trees, high

ground, bodies of water or large

open areas. If someone is injured,

administer first aid if you are qual-

ified to do so and call for emer-

gency help. You cannot be

“shocked” by someone who has

been hit by lighting.

For more information on this

and other safety issues related to

your home and family, please stop

by my office or visit

statefarm.com.

Garage Sale SeasonIt’s time to prepare for summer!

Wash the grime off the patio chairs; sweep off the deck and make room for the BBQ.

That may be easy but don’t forget that it’s time to de-clutter and organize your home!

Liz’ Tips

Liz’ TipsBy: Liz Quinn of Design’in-MindMaximum Impact with Minimal InvestmentBrockville, Ontario

You’ll need to empty out the basement of unnecessaryfurniture and stuff; clean the boxes out of the garage. Will youneed to make room in your closet for the latest colours andtrends? Remember to donate items you no longer need.

The YARD SALE ads are starting to show up in the newspa-pers. Maybe it’s time to prepare for your big garage sale orfor a big donation to your favourite charity..? It’s a great wayto get rid of items you don’t need..

Where is the best area to begin a home-decluttering project?

Unless you’re tackling just one cluttered room, it’s always best to start

in the master bedroom in order to create a sanctuary at the end of your

hectic day & to get energized in order to tackle the remainder of the

project. Next are the other bedrooms, then to the bathrooms, to the

family room and dining room, and finally…the kitchen.

Ensure you have boxes or containers ready to start the de-cluttering

process. Take the full boxes to the garage…on their way to your

favourite charity, i.e. SalvationArmy, May Court, Re-Store (Habitat for

Humanity), Goodwill, etc.. Or maybe you’ll have a garage sale? Ask

your neighbours; they may have items they want to get rid of as well. If

that’s the case, advertise a multi-family yard sale in the local papers to

generate interest.

What small steps can someone take “to be & to remain”organized?

• Store stuff in clear containers or bags so you can actually see the

content at a glance. It takes away the stress of trying to find an item in

closed-up boxes and in dark bags.

• If you purchase an accessory item for the room then take one item away

from it.

• Display accessories in clusters of 3’s for balanced look.

• Keep flow of traffic areas open for unnecessary stress.

• Look at another option for that unused ceramic bowl which is hidden

in the cupboard.

• If you don’t have a use for Aunt Jane’s colourful vase, then donate it,

sell it, or transform it into something else (see below). Don’t give it

away as a gift; give it away to someone who actually wants it. Leave

the guilt behind.

What are a few tips for everyday purchases or for specialoccasions?

• Don’t buy stuff just because it’s on sale; buy it because you love it and

you absolutely will use it or wear it.

• Don’t attend a garage sale unless you NEED a specific item.

• Don’t buy gifts for others unless they specifically told you what they

want and the colour they want it in.

• It’s best to buy products that will not take space nor gather dust: choco-

lates, nuts, specialty cheeses, candles to match their colour scheme,

tickets to an Art Centre performance, theatre tickets, coupons for

dinner at their favourite restaurant, their preferred wine or liqueur,

coupons offering your babysitting services, etc..

• Let go of the guilt; don’t keep an item just because someone gave it

to you; it’s best to donate it so others can make use of it.

HOMEFINDER WEEKLY 3

ON THE MARKET TIPS

TIP 1- Buying A home Is One Of The

Best Investments You Can Make! Home

equity remains the largest single savings

vehicle for most Canadians. In addition

to the tax incentives of home ownership,

and the ability to tap into your home

equity if the need arises, buying a home

is a wise and prudent investment for

most people.

TIP 2- It Is Very Important To Buy A

Home That Will Go Up In Value. Slow,

steady home appreciation has been the

rule over most of the nation’s history, and

many real estate investors became quite

wealthy in that environment. They did

so by very carefully analyzing the appre-

ciation potential of their investment, and

they invested for the long term. You

should too. Even if you plan on living in

your home just a few years, you will

want it to have gone up in value when

you put it back on the market.

TIP 3- Use A Buyers Agent. If you're

going to work with a real estate agent,

contract with a buyers agent. A buyers

agent has a duty to represent your inter-

ests, while the subagent represents the

seller's interests. The subagent, which has

been the traditional relationship between a

buyer and an agent, is ethically required

to disclose all relevant information (such

as the fact that you’ll be willing to raise

your offer if necessary) to the seller.

TIP 4- Choose Your Agent Wisely. If

you are using a real estate agent look for

one with experience in working with

buyers, with knowledge of the neighbor-

hood(s) you are considering, and who

Top 10 Home Buyers Tipsdoes not have a reputation for being

‘pushy’. The purchase of a home is a

serious long term commitment on your

part and a good agent will recognize that

buyers need time and patience so they

can satisfactorily sort out the myriad’s of

factors involved

in a purchase

decision.

TIP 5- Current

Home Prices Are

A Less Important

Con s i d e r a t i o n

Than Interest

Rates. Try to buy

and/or sell when

interest rates are

low. The amount

of mortgage you

can afford (and

thus the price of the home you will

cosider) will change as the interest rates

rise or fall. A certain asking price may

sound expensive to you, but at a lower

interest rate you might be able to afford

it. You may own several homes over your

lifetime, and the factors that will limit or

increase the value of the home you will

be selling will similarly affect the price

of its replacement. Since those factors

largely wash each other out, interest rates

remain the most important factor.

TIP 6- Always HaveAHome Inspection

Contingency In Your Offer and always

hire a professio-nal home inspector to

provide you a written report, along with

“ball park” estimates or ranges of repair

costs. If the inspection turns up prob-

lems that weren’t readily noticeable, you

can use it and the ball park estimates for

negotiating leverage to get the seller

to make the repairs or provide you a

commensurate price reduction.

TIP 7- Learn As Much As Possible

About The

Seller’s Circum-

stances. There

may be mutually

beneficial oppor-

tunities. For ex-

ample if you

might face diffi-

culty qualifying

for a big enough

mortgage, and the

seller is worried

about college

costs for his or her

sixth grader, then

maybe the seller might be interested in

accepting a second trust for part of the

purchase price if the interest rate is above

what they could otherwise earn and the

loan is paid off the summer before the

child’s freshman college year. From

your perspective the rate will likely be

less than you could get from a

traditional lender.

TIP 8- Research Your Mortgage Options

Well Before You Make An Offer. You

won’t have enough time in the five days

sellers normally allow to get all of your

paperwork together, determine the best

kind of mortgage, who is offering the

best rates etc. Consider getting a contin-

gent letter of approval for a loan, or an

actual loan commitment prior to making

an offer. The former is not actually a loan

commitment, but rather a contingent

approval for a loan up to a certain

amount. While it has relatively little

enforceable value, it nevertheless can

impress a seller, who might be more will-

ing to accept a lower offer because of the

perceived financial capabilities of the

seller. Its also possible to get approved

by a lender with a longer term “lock” on

the interest rate in order to protect you

from subsequent rate increa-ses. While

this should substantially increase your

negotiating leverage, keep in mind that

you pay more directly or indirectly for

the longer commitment, either in terms

of the rate and/or points.

TIP 9- Learn How To Negotiate Like A

Pro. There’s more money involved in this

negotiation than just about any other area

you’ll encounter. Even if you’re using a

buyer’s agent, you’re part of the team,

and you’ll have to make the ultimate

decisions about how much to offer and

how much to compromise on a counter

offer.

TIP 10- STUDY! The tips in this article

are only the beginning. You’ll need to

learn a lot more if you want to get the

best possible deal. Read as much as you

can on home buying, on negotiating, on

neighborhoods in your area that might fit

your needs, and on factors that impact

long term appreciation like schools,

infrastructure, major new business

expansions or closing etc. Keep copies of

everything you send the lender and

everything the lender sends you.
