Professionally SpeakingDear Community,

Owning a home has had long-standing government sup-port in the U.S. because homeownership benefits individualsand families, strengthens communities, and is integral to thenation’s economy, the National Association of Realtors® saidin testimony today.

NAR President-Elect Moe Veissi outlined the association’srecommendations for housing finance reform before theHouse Financial Services Subcommittee on InternationalMonetary Policy and Trade.

“We must be better stewards of the U.S. housing financesystem if it is to thrive and effectively serve American homebuyers and mortgage investors into the future,” said Veissi,broker-owner of Veissi & Associates Inc., in Miami. “Repairsto our current housing finance structure must be made, butwe must be careful that changes to the system do not comeat the expense of homeownership opportunities for middle-and lower income Americans.”

Toward that end, NAR supports H.R. 2413, the “SecondaryMarket Facility for Residential Mortgage Act of 2011,” intro-duced by Reps. Gary Miller, R-Calif., and Carolyn McCarthy,D-N.Y.

“H.R. 2413 offers a comprehensive strategy for reformingthe secondary mortgage market and gives the federal gov-ernment a continued role to ensure a consistent flow of mort-gage credit in all markets and all economic conditions,” saidVeissi. “Moreover, it supports the use of long-term fixed-ratemortgage products.”

Veissi testified that full privatization of the secondary mort-gage market would all but eliminate products like the 30-yearfixed-rate mortgage and that mortgage interest rates wouldbe unnecessarily higher and unaffordable for many Ameri-cans, shutting otherwise qualified buyers out of the market.

“The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is the bedrock of the U.Shousing finance system, and without government support,there’s no evidence that this type of mortgage would con-tinue to exist,” said Veissi. “Private firms’ business strategieswould focus on optimizing their profits, creating mortgage

products that are more aligned with the goals of their busi-ness than in the best interests of the nation’s housing policyor consumers.”

Veissi said that while the size of the government’s partici-pation in housing finance should decrease if private capital isto return to the market and function properly, the federal gov-ernment must have a continued role in the secondary mort-gage market to avoid losing long-term, fixed-rate mortgageproducts and keep borrowing costs affordable for con-sumers.

“Continuing government participation in the secondarymortgage market is critical to ensuring that qualified homebuyers can obtain safe and sound mortgage financing prod-ucts even during market downturns, when private entitieshave historically pulled back,” Veissi said.

Recent reductions to the conforming loan limits by the fed-eral government are already having an impact on mortgageliquidity according to early data from an NAR survey, whichfound that consumers who are now above the new lowerconventional conforming loan limit are experiencing signifi-cantly higher interest rates and the need for substantiallylarger down payments.

Veissi said that the housing and economic recoveries havebeen slow and that activities that force economic activity tobe constricted further should be resisted.

“For hundreds of years, this country has understood thevalue of homeownership because it helps families buildwealth, supports community stability and contributes to oureconomy. We need to make sure that future housing policiescontinue to reinforce our long-standing value of homeowner-ship, for the future of our families and our country,” saidVeissi.

The National Association of Realtors®, “The Voice for RealEstate,” is America’s largest trade association, representing1.1 million members involved in all aspects of the residentialand commercial real estate industries.

Trying to sell ahouse during the win-ter months in a downmarket can be diffi-cult, but there areseveral things youcan do to improve itsmarketability. By ex-pending a bit of effortbefore it goes on themarket, you can en-sure that your homepresents well, standsout from the crowdand doesn’t turn offpotential buyers so

that you can sellquickly…and at thebest price.

Tone Down Personality

Your bookshelvesmay be filled withPulitzer-Prize winnersand your collection ofAmericana figurinesmay reflect your per-sonal interests, but tohome buyers it looksbusy and cluttered,and may distractthem from truly see-

ing your home’sunique architecturalfeatures and spa-cious rooms. Alsoconsider whetherfamily pictures helpor hinder a sale; fu-ture home ownersmay not be able tolook past your kids’smiling faces plas-tered all over thewalls and see them-selves building theirown future in yourhome.Since you hope to

move soon anyway,go ahead and boxthem up and putthem in storage in ad-vance of the openhouse or showing.While that red ac-

cent wall opposite thelime green fireplaceperfectly ties in withyour ultra modern fur-niture, a potentialbuyer at your openhouse may be turnedoff immediately anddecide that the entirehouse doesn’t reflect

their style.Considerpaintingwalls aneutralcolorsuch asbeige ortaupe.

Don’t Burden theBuyer with RepairsIf there are problem

areas in your home,get them fixed beforethe showing. Whenprospective buyerstour the house andsee leak stains on theceiling or peelingpaint, they will alsosee future work andassume that biggermaintenance and re-pair issues are lurkingbehind those smallproblems. This is particularly

true in kitchens andbathrooms, which areoften the two roomsthat make or break asale. The expensesyou incur on the frontend sprucing up your

home will becheaperthan theprofitsyoucould

lose byhaving to

lower the price tomeet buyer demand.Maximize ExposureLastly, take advan-

tage of new technol-ogy to find uniqueways to market yourhouse. UseYouTube.com, avideo sharing web-site, to introduceyourself and yourhouse for free. Takehome shoppers on avirtual tour and tellthem about itsuniqueness andstrengths from a first-person point of view. Use Internet social

networking sites suchas Facebook to cre-ate a Web link with aprofile of your home.Include pictures anda description of your

home’s features. E-mail the link to yourfriends and ask themto forward it on totheir network of con-tacts. Be sure that you are

using traditional mar-keting techniques toyour best advantage.When photographingyour home for promo-tional purposes, in-vest in a wide-anglelens for your cameraso that rooms appearbigger and in propor-tion when they aredisplayed on Internethome listing sites or inmarketing flyers. Ifyou decide to create avirtual tour, look forprofessionals who willbe able to film and up-load your video usingthe best techniquesand technology. For more helpful

hints, contact yourcontact the MooreCounty HomeBuilders Associationat (910)944-2992.

(ARA) - Just aboutevery child wishesfor a dream bed-room, but it takes in-spiration totransform four whitewalls into a fairytaleprincess room ortree house hide-away. Fortunately,you don't have to bean interior designeror skilled craftsmanto become a hero. Alittle family compro-mising, combinedwith some simplepainting techniques,can go a long way increating a fun, per-sonalized designthat kids love - andparents can live withover time.Choose kid-friendly

colorsPaint is one of the

easiest and mostdramatic ways totransform a room.Start by choosing acolor scheme thatappeals to yourchild's interests.There's a wide arrayof colors and cre-ative design ideasthat appeal to kids.One option is the

Kids' Colors collec-tions at Sherwin-Williams stores,which offer fourcolor-coordinatedpalettes, paired with

easy instructionguides, for creatingdelightful, age-ap-propriate designs. Inall, the 120 profes-sionally selectedcolors fall into fourage groups, from in-fants to teenagers,with color schemesthat can be adaptedas the child grows. The techniques are

as endless as yourimagination. Tryadding whimsicalpolka dots to a girl'sroom, create acheckerboard effectfor an avid chessplayer, or paint afaux racecar trackthat zooms aroundthe bedroom wall,across the floor andback up the wallagain, for a youngsports enthusiast.More design inspira-tion is available atwww.fisher-price.com.Using instructions

and a few simpletools such aspainters' tape, mini-rollers and a tapemeasure, you canconfidently add vi-sual interest andmake even a simpleroom look incrediblyspecial. Visitwww.sherwin-williams.com/do_it_y

ourself. Create storage to

complement the de-sign Keep your child's

bedroom beautifulby incorporatingstorage elementsthat will blend withyour design andhelp keep the spaceclutter-free. For ex-ample, try adding abed skirt to hide acouple of slide-outstorage containersfor organizing any-thing from smalltoys to multiple pairsof tennis shoes.Place woven bas-kets around theroom to create at-tractive storage inplain sight. Theseorganizational ele-ments can work wellin rooms for kids ofany age. Coordinate colors

with patternsThe nursery is an-

other room thatlends itself to thedreams of both littleones and their par-ents. One way tocreate a cohesivedesign is to matchpaint colors with thepatterns in babybedding fashions.For example, a col-

lection of Sherwin-Williams colors is

available to coordi-nate with popularpatterns from theFisher-Price BabyGear line ofbassinettes, babyseats, play yardsand other nurseryitems. The palette,available at morethan 3,300 Sherwin-Williams stores na-tionwide, includeshues that have beenhand-selected bycolor experts to helptie a nursery designtogether.

To round out thebaby's room, tryadding rugs, acces-sories or draperiesthat pick up the col-ors used on thewalls and in the bed-ding patterns.Choose bedroom

furniture that will en-dureSelect furniture that

can transition to anew bedroom de-sign as your childgrows older. For ex-ample, with just achange of pillows, a

nursery rocker canbecome part of acozy reading nooklater for a grade-schooler who lovesto curl up and readalone. Bunk bedsthat serve as a pre-tend fort now canbecome traditionaltwin beds later. Evena frilly canopy bedcan become agrown-up four-poster later by sim-ply removing thecanopy frameworkand fabric cover.

(ARA) - Every fall,the wind picks up, theleaves fall to theground and the grassgets a little browner.It's the time of yearwhen the weather isunpredictable andstorms can makeeven the neatestyards a mess.Remington, a lead-

ing manufacturer ofbattery and electricpower tools, hassome tips to helpmake your fallcleanup greener andeasier:Clearing leaves from

your yard can be adaunting task, but it'san important one tokeep your yard aliveand green comespring. Using an elec-tric leaf blower orblower vacuum versususing a rake or aheavy gas blower canhelp reduce the effort.While electric leafblowers are limited inmobility, they requireless hassle.If you find more than

just leaves in youryard after a storm, youmay consider doingmost of the cleanupyourself using achainsaw, such as theRM1415A Limb NTrim, a 14-inch chain-saw that's ideal forcleanup of fallen

branches and logsless than 13 inches indiameter. Keep inmind there are manysafety concerns totake into accountwhen using a chain-saw to clean up themess. Here are a fewtips on how to use achainsaw to help keepyou safe this season:* First, read the op-

erator's manual andfollow suggestedguidelines to removefallen trees.* Ensure the saw's

chain is properly ten-sioned before eachuse and all fasteners,controls and safetyfeatures are function-ing properly.* Make sure the bar

and chain are alwayslubricated to preventthe saw from wearingout or cutting poorly.Check the bar andchain oil reservoir fre-quently to make sureit's full or it will ruinyour chain.* Start the saw while

standing on theground and alwayshold the handle se-curely.* Clear debris and

small tree limbs fromthe chainsaw's path,and beware of nailsand other metal be-fore cutting.* Avoid saw "kick-

back" to prevent a se-rious chainsaw injury.Never let the tip of thebar come in contactwith anything. Alwaysreference the opera-tor's manual forproper chain saw op-eration.Here are a few other

tips to prepare youryard for fall:* Cut your grass

short right before theseason ends.* Don't forget to

water. Early in themorning is the besttime in order to avoidevaporation and dis-ease development.* Fertilize in order to

maintain root healthand replenish the nu-trients that were lostduring the hot sum-mer.* Once the watering

season is over, makesure to drain andstore your gardenhose and turn off thewater supply to keepyour pipes from freez-ing.* If you use a bat-

tery-powered mower,make sure to removethe battery before put-ting it away. Also,store the battery onthe charger to keep itfrom slowly drainingover the winter, whichcan damage the bat-tery over time.
