Ten Ways To Make Moving Less Stressful

June 6, 2013 / Sam / Community

familyPacking

Even though taking possession of a new home is fun, people often dread the moving process itself. Moving can be a stressful experience.

Here are 10 ways that careful planning can make your move a little easier:

1. Packing Central. Create a spot for your packing list, labels, markers, tape, etc.

2. Make a List. Write everything down! Before you pack anything, create a system. Number EVERY box you pack and write the contents on your list.

3. Supplies. You’ll need lots of boxes and packing materials – more than you think. Set aside about 10 boxes for last minute moving day items. Tall wardrobe boxes are perfect for bulky, lightweight items like comforters, pillows, and clothes that need to remain hanging.

4. Color Code. Designate a color for each room in your new home and put colored stickers on each box. In your new home, put a matching sticker on the door to each room so movers know where to put things.

5. Keep Things Together. Keep light bulbs with lamps, picture hooks with pictures, etc.

6. Pack Early. Save time by packing everything you can ahead of time. If it’s not essential to daily living, pack it!

7. Cleaning Kit. Put together a kit of basic cleaning supplies for moving day clean up jobs.

8. Use Luggage. Save boxes by packing items in luggage and duffle bags.

9. Keep Valuables Safe. Keep valuable possessions like jewelry and family heirlooms with you. Check your homeowner’s insurance to see how they’re covered during the move. Keep important papers and phone numbers with you.

10. Get rid of it. Donate, give away or throw away 20%. De-clutter. Simplify.

Energy-Efficient Mortgages

May 7, 2013 / Sam / Mortgages & Interest Rates

Mortgage Lending Programs

ENERGY STAR offers information on mortgage lending programs that include the cost of energy efficiency investments in the loans themselves so that borrowers can pay for those investments over the life of their loans, as well as possibly deduct the interest from their federal and state income taxes. These programs include:

Energy-Efficient Mortgages

Energy-Efficient Mortgages (EEMs) give borrowers the opportunity to finance cost-effective, energy-saving measures as part of a single mortgage and stretch debt-to-income qualifying ratios on loans thereby allowing borrowers to qualify for a larger loan amount and a better, more energy-efficient home. To get an EEM a borrower typically has to have a home energy rater conduct a home energy rating before financing is approved. This rating verifies for the lender that the home is energy-efficient.

EEMs are typically used to purchase a new home that is already energy efficient such as an ENERGY STAR certified home. There are various types of EEMs, including Conventional, FHA and VA programs.
