Professionally SpeakingDear Community,

As you look through the RealEstate guide and check the inter-net sometimes we wonder if theperfect house really is out there. Itis! What it takes is clarification ofyour wants and needs, prepara-tion and a good REALTOR® toput it all together. Recent NARstudies show that over 90% of allreal estate searches begin online.The Internet is a wonderful ad-vantage especially for those mov-ing to a new area. Technology has certainlyimproved our access to photos, virtual tours,goggle earth and more. There seems to be alarge inventory of homes on the market, sowhy can’t I find what I am looking for? Viewing hundreds of homes can be con-fusing at best. The photos may be great andin some cases not so great. The best thingwe can do is really look at how we live.Where do we spend our time in our currenthome? What activities take extra space? Howmuch storage space do you require? Thinkabout the monthly expenses you will incur inaddition to the mortgage. Clarify what style of

home you prefer; single story ormulti level, Brick or wood, Tradi-tional or Contemporary. Do youprefer a neighborhood, in town orthe country? How many bed-rooms, do you need a formal din-ing room or an office?

Versatile, Beautiful& Natural – Stonehas everything youneed to create aunique and memo-rable interior andexterior design.From the kitchen tothe patio, from theentranceway to thegreat room, to theexterior face of yourhome, Stone hasthe color and tex-ture to match any

setting for a naturalfit. Here is a samplingof some of the mostpopular stones:

• CobblefieldThe distinctivestyle of Cobblefieldevokes the ruggedarchitecture of rural19th-century Amer-ica. It's an "un-coursed" stone,meaning that it isn'tdesigned to line up

into uniform rows.Rough-hewn andinformal, yet trimand organized—it'sequally at home inboth traditional andcontemporary ar-chitectural environ-ments.

• Country Ledgestone

Country Ledge-stone is a popularstone because of itswarm Arts & Craftsflavor. Its extensivepalette allows forvirtually endless op-portunities to mixand match the tex-ture with today'swide variety ofhome buildingproducts. The ex-tensive color palettealso offers subtlevariations fromother ledgestones.

• Dressed Fieldstone

Dressed Field-stone has a time-less look. Itsrugged character

evokesage-oldbuild-ingmateri-als, yetit alsolooks athome in a morecontemporary ar-chitectural setting.Thanks to its richtexture and rangeof colors it's suitedto any number ofdesign interpreta-tions.

• Drystack Ledgestone

The texture andvariation of Drys-tack Ledgestonecapture both lightand shadow. Eachstone comes incarefully selectedand shapes andsizes to accommo-date tight spaces.Its rustic colorpalette blends wellwith contemporaryroofing and wall fin-

ishes. • Euro-pean CastleStoneReminis-

cent of ma-jestic

European castles,this favorite offersageless appeal. Itsinterlocking mortargrooves create aprecise, groutlessappearance —much like the cas-tles of old. Availablein a selection ofheights andlengths, these geo-metric lookingstones are excep-tionally compatiblewith a broad rangeof architecturalstyles.

• FieldstoneThroughout thehistory of home-building, fieldstonehas remained thehandiest and mostcommonly used ofall building materi-

als because it hasnatural appeal.Wherever this sur-face appears—in-doors, outdoors, intailored architectureor on a log home inthe woods—it pro-vides a powerful,rugged characterno other materialcan match.

• Old CountryFieldstone

Inspired by greatEuropean countryarchitecture, thistexture allows for awide variety oflooks depending onhow it's applied.With a wide over-grout joint it givesthe appearance ofrural stoneworkdone in a past cen-tury. At the otherend of the spec-trum, set horizon-tally and fitted tight,it can offer a farmore formal, urbanpresence.

As recently as the1980s, it was oftenchallenging for an un-married woman to geta credit card—letalone a mortgage. Buttoday, nearly twice asmany single womenare buying homesthan single men. Thereason? Because theyhave the means aswell the desire to max-imize their financial fit-ness.Recent research bythe National Centerfor Education Statis-tics shows thatwomen earn 58 per-cent of all college de-grees, and nowcomprise over 50 per-cent of the U.S. work-force. And accordingto the National Asso-ciation of Realtors,most single womenus those smarts whenshopping for a home.• The vast majoritywork with an experi-

enced real estate pro-fessional to help themresearch important is-sues such as neigh-borhood trends, thequality of schools, orlocal covenants.• They plan for theancillary costs of own-ing a home, such aslandscaping and re-pairs.• They prioritize theircurrent and futureneeds — such asproximity to the work-place — before pin-pointing potentialproperties. They’realso willing to com-promise on size andprice to gain more de-sirable amenities.• Their frugal habits

pay off in the longrun. More than one-third cut spending onnonessential items tosave for the downpay-ment.For a free consulta-tion to discuss whichtype of mortgage loanwill work best for you,call Victoria Spannausat Wells Fargo HomeMortgage at (800)741-7813 or 910-692-6225.

(ARA) - As the weatherwarms, are you thinkingabout spring cleaning?Or, maybe you're plan-ning to spruce up yourhome with some im-provements and up-grades. This year, whynot add "spring green-ing" to your home-fresh-ening routine?Making your home a"greener" place to livecan improve its energyefficiency, reduce wasteand make you feel morein harmony with the nat-ural world springing tolife around you. Greenefforts can be as simpleas switching out old in-candescent light bulbsfor more energy-efficientones, or as energetic asadding skylights in thehouse or a vegetablegarden in the backyard.If you're looking forways to make yourhome environment moreearth-friendly thisspring, here are someideas to consider:

Powering downNo matter how eageryou are for warmweather, you're proba-bly not too excitedabout the electric billsthat come with summerheat. Heating and cool-ing account for thelargest portion of ahome's energy bill. For-tunately, you can do alot to reduce electric use- and waste - to trimcosts and still keep yourhome comfortable.If you're up for someminor improvementwork that can pay offbig in terms of energysavings, make yourhome feel more con-nected to nature, andadd decorating flair,consider adding a sky-light. The abundant nat-ural light admitted toyour home by skylightscan help reduce theneed to power artificiallight sources. Plus, thenatural chimney effect ofventing skylights is agreat way to passivelyvent moisture, fumesand potentially harmfulvolatile organic com-pounds (VOCs). Inspring and fall, when it'stoo warm for comfort,but not hot enough tojustify turning on the airconditioning, ventingskylights can let in coolbreezes and lower cool-ing costs. And they canclose automatically incase of rain. You canlearn more about NoLeak Skylights and theirenergy-efficient benefitsat www.veluxusa.com.You can also reduceenergy costs in warmermonths with some sim-ple maintenance. Duringsummer, when yourcooling system worksharder, be sure tochange the air filter onyour home's HVAC sys-tem every month. Ener-gyStar.gov alsorecommends a yearlytune-up of your system.

Greening upSome of the most pop-ular home improve-

ments can be accom-plished in ways that areenvironmentally friendly.For example, painting isa common springspruce-up. Many paints,however, contain VOCsand give off fumes thatcan irritate allergies andasthma. You can makeyour redecorating moreeco-conscious by opt-ing for low-VOC paints.And always be sure toopen plenty of windowsbefore painting, even ifyou're using a low-VOCselection. The fresh airwill help the paint dryfaster and ensure thatany unpleasant odorsvent quickly.Another commonspring activity is lawncare. As warm weatherapproaches, manyhomeowners begin ap-plying weed killer andfertilizer to their lawns inthe hopes of having alush, green carpet ofgrass come summer.Many lawn care prod-

ucts, however, can ad-versely affect the envi-ronment. If it's a priorityfor you to green yourlawn - and not just tohave green grass - it'spossible to find plenty ofeco-friendly lawn careproducts. Websites likewww.OMRI.org, thehome page of the Or-ganic Materials ReviewInstitute, can provide in-formation on productsthat are environmentallyfriendly.Finally, as you're un-dertaking your springcleaning, keep in mindthe need to reducewaste. When you cleanout your garage or atticand purge closets, eval-uate items before youtoss them in the trash.You may find that manyof the things you weregoing to throw away canbe donated, sold or re-cycled - anything to getthem out of your housewithout adding to thewaste stream.

Spring greening tips for your home

Venting skylights in high humidity areas like laundry rooms,kitchens and baths draw heat and moisture up and out.

Venting skylights and accessories, including blinds and shades, canoperate by remote control and close automatically in case of rain.
