WHAT TO DO WITH AN UNFINISHED BASEMENT

Although currently dimly lit and a little rough on the eyes, your unfinished basement still has a lot of potentials. With just a little love and the help of the following ideas, you can spice it up in no time and get some great use out of the space. 

 Add a pop of color. 

Give your basement a whole different look without a big renovation by adding some color to space. Consider painting and sealing the floors, opening up the room by painting the rafters white or a light color, or creating a bold accent wall. 

Divide the space. 

Want to make your basement a multi-use room? Partition out the area by installing an inexpensive curtain system. This can be done either with a curtain track or a simple wire, some hooks, and curtains will suffice.

Add foam mats. 

Whether you’d like to use the basement as a home gym to get a quick workout in or a place for the kids to play and rough house, adding some foam mats into the mix is a great and easy solution. They come in various colors and can quickly be picked up and tucked away if need be. 

Use a large rug. 

As an alternative to adding mats, find a large, eye-catching rug to be used as a focal point, and furnish the area around it. 

Add lighting. 

Basements often offer very little built-in lighting and few outlets around the room. Consider stringing café lighting across space from the rafters to give a nice ambiance and glow without any difficult electrical work.

Home Warranty Vs Home Insurance

When purchasing a new home, it’s important to do in-depth research on all facets of the homebuying process. One thing you’ll need to understand is how to best protect yourself and your investment if anything were to go wrong. Check out the information on home insurance versus home warranty below to educate yourself on your options.

Home Insurance

Homeowners insurance pays for any accidental damages and loss that are caused by fire, lightning strikes, windstorms, and hail, however, damage from earthquakes and floods is typically not covered. It also covers the replacement of personal property in case of theft or damage and liability if a person were to get injured in your home or on your property. According to American Home Shield, the average annual cost of a homeowner's insurance policy ranges between $300 and $1,000, and the bank usually asks you to obtain a policy before the mortgage is issued. Make sure to keep in mind that each type of coverage in the policy is subject to a limit and, in most cases, you will have to pay a deductible.

Home Warranty

A home warranty is designed to cover the cost of repairs and replacements of larger appliances and crucial systems in your home that may fail or break due to age and wear and tear. This includes but isn’t limited to HVAC, electrical, or plumbing components, kitchen appliances, and your washer and dryer. With a home warranty, you are required to pay premiums year-round, even if you do not use it, and it won’t cover damages if appliances were not maintained properly or if the damage is from a fire or other disaster.

The bottom-line difference with regards to warranty vs. insurance is that insurance covers unexpected events that lead to damage, while warranties cover events that are somewhat expected, such as the aging and ultimate breakdown of appliances and systems.

7 Reasons To Move To Loveland Colorado

Loveland, Colorado has all you will need in a community.  It's known as the "Sweetheart City".  Yes, that's right.  Its population is about 80,000 and it's nestled between the popular college town of Fort Collins, CO, and the state capital Denver, CO.

Here are 7 reason's that you should move here:

1.  With Love From Loveland

Being known as the Sweetheart City has its traditions.   Every February the city has a Valentine Re-mailing program.  It is known worldwide for its hand-stamped Valentines from LOVELAND.  Participants send their Valentine to the Loveland Chamber of Commerce.  Volunteers stamp an official Loveland Colorado cachet and stamp on the cards and mail them to the recipient.  This tradition has been going on since 1940.

2.  Art Culture

Loveland is known for its art.  One of the more popular and recognized art shows is SCULPTURE IN THE PARK.  It is known as one of the finest outdoor juried exhibitions of three-dimensional art in the United States. Artists from around the world participate in the show that is held on the second weekend of  August each year.   Thousands of sculptures of all tastes are on exhibit.  Benson Sculpture Park is the location for the exhibit and sale and it's a must-see.

Downtown Loveland features many Art Galleries.  Some of the galleries offer classes as well as studio spaces.

Artists have transformed Loveland and have blessed the residence with beautiful pieces to enjoy in parking lots, in front of businesses, museums, and events. 

3.  Numerous Lakes

If you are someone who enjoys fishing, boating, paddleboarding, or swimming, Loveland has many lakes that are available for your enjoyment.  Lake Loveland is close to Benson Sculpture Park and is centrally located.  The lake itself is reserved for the use of surrounding homeowners, but the south shore allows guests to fish and enjoy the Rocky Mountain view.  North Lake Park is a common gathering space, with a swim beach, a park with a train, playgrounds, BBQ/picnic area, an amphitheater and a place to view the ducks, geese, and events.  Some of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Loveland are located by small mountain runoff ponds.  My favorite lake is Carter Lake.  Carter lake is about 25 minutes south of Loveland.  It's known for paddleboarding, fishing, a sailing club and boating.  It's about 3 miles long, so it's more than enough lake to "get away from it all".  

4.  Health Care At Its Finest

There is quite a range of healthcare options in Loveland CO.  UCHealth of the Rockies is highly ranked and is a teaching hospital.  McKee Hospital has been a part of the community for over 30 years and is a medical and surgical facility.  Urgent care facilities and walk-in clinics and free and income based clinics are available as well.

In the non-traditional medicine area, you can find acupuncture, massage, chiropractic care, holistic health care, healing arts, homeopathic practitioners, naturopathic medicine, and many more options.

There is something for everyone's needs and desires.

5. Endless Restaurants 

One of my favorite restaurants is a Cajun Restaurant called Betta Gumbo.  It's a Cajun eatery and features catfish, beignets, and has a New Orleans feel.  You can't go wrong with any item you decide to try.  If you sit on the patio, you can listen to local music and events going on at the Foundry.

Another one of my frequented locations is Bai Tong.  It's a Thai restaurant with the best curry dishes.  It's in a quaint old home that's been transformed into a casual, calming restaurant with an extensive menu for all tastes.

Variety abounds from the traditional Franchises to food trucks.  It doesn't matter where you are in town, you will be able to find Mexican, Italian, Sandwich shops, Bakeries, Breakfast, Asian, or just plain old American food at it's finest.

6.  Biking and Hiking Trails

As you can tell already Colorado is an outdoor haven.  According to U.S. News, Colorado is ranked 8th healthiest state in the United States.  There are avid hikers and bikers with numerous paths in the area.  Among the top trails is Devils Backbone, Pinewood Lake Trail, and Marianna Butte Trail.  There are hundreds of different places to enjoy the beautiful scenery and smell the abundant wildflowers.  More than likely on your adventure you will bask in the enjoyment of nature.  Mule deer, elk, raccoons, prairie dogs, snakes, are just a few creatures you may encounter.  Whether you want a short nature walk or a 25-mile ride, Loveland has you covered.  You won't be disappointed.

7.  Golf Anyone

Loveland has three courses to choose from.

The Cattail golf course is a 9 hole, 3 par course.  It's great for the beginner or someone who wants to improve their short game. 

The Olde Course is an 18 hole course located right in the middle of town.  This course is a 50-year-old course and is beautifully manicured with mature landscaping.  It features water holes and tree-lined fairways.  It has a fun layout and is enjoyed by all.

And the third is the Marianna Butte golf course.  It is an award-winning 18 hole golf course.  Its scenery is breathtaking and it can be challenging to say the least.  It is pricier than the other two but definitely worth it.

How Martin Luther King Day Relates to Federal Fair Housing

Today is Martin Luther King Day.  Celebrate Civil Rights and the Federal Fair Housing Act.

Five days after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr, the Federal Fair Housing Act was passed.  It essentially extended the same discrimination protections contained within the 1964 Civil Rights Act to the housing industry.

Within the Federal Fair Housing Act, those individuals (realtors, lenders, property managers, etc) who facilitate a housing transaction must adhere to the rules of this Act. 

The classes of people this act protects are:

• Color
• Disability
• Familia Status  
• Parents who have one or more children under the age of 18 living with them.
• Legal guardians who have one or more children under the age of 18 living with them.
• The designee of the parent or legal guardian of a child under the age of 18. This designation must have been made in writing by the child’s parent or legal guardian.
• A person in the process of being granted legal custody of a child under the age of 18.
• Pregnant women.
• National Origin
• Race
• Religion
• Sex

Examples of discriminatory housing allegations based on membership in a protected class may include, refusal to rent, unequal terms and conditions, discriminatory financing, failure to provide reasonable accommodation or modification for a person with a disability, refusal to sell, and retaliating against someone who has exercised his/her fair housing rights.  These are just a few examples.  

We've come a long way since Dr. King changed the world, but we still have a ways to go.  Discrimination still exists in our country, even in the housing industry.  If you feel you are a victim of Federal Fair Housing, you have one year to file a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Division

Here at Turn Key Realty, our agents have taken extensive training on Federal Fair Housing.  We pride ourselves abiding by the rules set for by National Association of Realtors and Federal Fair Housing.

The Role of a Personal Representative or Executor

One of the most important reasons to make a will is to name your executor -- commonly called a “personal representative” in Colorado.  If the person serving is a female -- an executrix. After your death, your executor's primary job is to protect your property until any debts and taxes have been paid, and then transfer what's left to those who are entitled to it.

What is Your Role as an Executor

• (1) determine if there are any probate assets;

• (2) identify, gather, and inventory the assets of the deceased;

• (3) receive payments due to the estate, including interest, dividends, and other income (e.g., unpaid salary, vacation pay, and other company benefits);

• (4) set up a checking account for the estate;

• (5) figure out who is going to get what and how much under the Will (if there is no Will, the state’s “interstate succession laws” apply);

• (6) value or appraise the estate’s assets;

• (7) give legal notice to potential creditors (the procedure and deadlines for creditors to file claims vary from state-to-state);

• (8) investigate the validity of all claims against the estate;

• (9) pay funeral bills, outstanding debts, and valid claims;

• (10) pay the expenses of administrating the estate;

• (11) handle various paperwork, such as discontinuing utilities and charge cards, and notifying Social Security, Civil Service, and Veterans Administration of the death;

• (12) file and pay income and estate taxes;

• (13) distribute the remaining property in accordance with the instructions provided in the deceased’s Will; and

• (14) close probate.

As of 2018, only gross estates with values of more than $5.6 million are subject to federal estate taxes, but some states also impose estate taxes. Colorado is not one of those states.  They do not impose an estate tax. Your gross taxable estate is the total value of all you own, both probate assets and property that pass directly to a living beneficiary.

As you can see, serving as a personal representative can be a huge responsibility and is often a time-consuming burden. If you need help finding a good estate planning attorney, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.  I have resources to help you.

Your Senior Resource

How to Help Seniors Declutter

Your senior will have accumulated a lifetime of belongings - some pieces stir deep memories while others don’t but they want to keep them.  There is a theory called the "endowment effect" that suggests we place more value on items once we claim ownership of them.  So all the things you "own" have more value to you and it is harder to get rid of.  To help Seniors, or anyone, for that matter declutter, here are a few tips.

Mobility 

Reducing clutter can create more space and reduce the probability of dangerous falls, or tripping incidents that lead to a loss of mobility. In other cases, decluttering can be helpful to you if you are experiencing limited mobility allowing for easier movement throughout the home. This is one way to let seniors know why they are "decluttering".  

Be Empathetic

Seniors are especially fond of items they have collected over time, again the "endowment effect".  It is hard for them to know that they are parting with the past and that a change is coming.  Be patient and keep the senior involved with the process.  Make sure that the care and concern for their wellbeing are being prioritized. 

Create Four Categories 

• Sale
• Donate/gift
• Discard
• Create a room/space for paperwork or items you need to go through
• Discard any worn bedding, clothing, or towels

Take One Room At A Time

By decluttering room-by-room, this can make the task less daunting, especially with a uniform process for each room.  You might consider starting with a room that is less cluttered.  You and the senior will see more progress and the next room will seem less overwhelming to them.

• Use boxes, bags, or baskets for sorting items
• Be sure to donate or sell clothing you have not worn in the past year
• Any items in a storage unit should be discarded or sold

How To Determine If An Item Is Valuable

• Check for distinctive markings
• Research items similarly made online
• Research the artist or manufacturer who created the item
• If you aren't sure, consult an expert

This is a time in seniors lives when they might possibly need some counseling.  Don't hesitate to bring in an Elder Therapist to help with the transition.  The Office On Aging in Larimer County is a great resource for help.

10 Reasons To Move To Loveland CO

I get the same response about every time I'm asked where I'm from.  Loveland, Colorado. "Oh, I'd love to live in Colorado".  So why is there such a draw to this area?  Why should you move to Loveland CO?

1. The Rocky Mountains

With views as beautiful as the Rocky Mountains, who wouldn't want to live here.  Every season is as gorgeous as the last one.  From snow-capped mountains to springtime wildflowers, the Colorado Rockies are a breathtaking sight.  The majestic pink skies and cotton candy clouds are a magnificent image. Amazing as it seems, there is a view for anyone who opens their eyes.

3. Big Thompson River & Area Lakes

The Big Thompson River provides excellent fishing opportunities.  If you are a novice fisherman or a beginner, you can catch trout, walleye, bass, or other fish from this river.  Loveland also is the backdrop for a lot of lakes.  In fact, Lake Loveland, Boyd Lake, and Carter Lake are just a few lakes that have public access.  If fishing isn't your forte, paddleboarding, boating, jet skiing, and swimming are other options.  Carter Lake is also home to sailboating enthusiasts. There are a lot more lakes but many are private lakes.  

4. The Public Arts Program

Loveland, CO has 475 pieces of art in its public arts collection.  The arts collection consists primarily of sculptures; however, the collection also includes murals and other flatwork.  Over 150 pieces of the city's sculptures can be found in Loveland's Benson Sculpture Garden.  This "public treasure" draws tens of thousands of visits each year.

5. Hiking/Biking

Loveland is host to 26 miles of bike and hiking trails.   The Recreation Trail System consists of paved trail nearly encircling Loveland and connecting to other regional trails, including Long View Trail and Colorado Front Range Trail.  Take a ride and enjoy the view!!

Loveland on tap consists of various brews from Sours to IPA's to Porters and Stouts.  Strawberry beer, chocolate beer, lemon etc.  Different tastes for different folks with 388 breweries in the state of Colorado and 50 new pending licenses as of January 2019.  Entertainment, greenhouses, warehouses, and eclectic decor enhance the experience of the local brews.   A new delicious brew to try each day of the week.  

Living in Loveland is home to all of the above but it's also home to (7.) wonderful schools, (8.)robust higher education opportunities, (9.)a variety of restaurants, and (10.)community events on a regular basis.

Basement Remodel - What's Your Return

Basement Conversion to Living Area

I have sellers ask me all the time what they should improve.  Recently, I had a gentleman in Greeley, Colorado ask if he should finish his basement and will it be worth the expense.  According to the National Association of Realtor® Research Department, this is what they found.

Consumers’ Viewpoint After Completing the Project: 

• The top reason for doing the project: to add features/improve livability - 57 percent.
• Second most common reason: moved into the home and want to customize - 16 percent.
• Most important result: better functionality and livability - 52 percent.
• Eighty-one percent said they have a greater desire to be home since completing the project, 65 percent have an increased sense of enjoyment when they are at home, and 77 percent have a major sense of accomplishment when they think of the project.
• Joy Score: 9.5 B

Seven percent of REALTORS® have suggested sellers convert a basement to a living area before attempting to sell, but only two percent said the project most recently helped cinch a deal for them, resulting in a closed sale.

Cost Recovery:

• NARI Remodelers’ cost estimate: $40,000.
• REALTORS®’ estimated cost recovered: $25,000.
• Percent of value recovered from the project: 63 percent.

So, as you can see it is more than likely not going to make the home sell faster but will give more enjoyment to the new buyer.  While you recover some of the costs it's not 100%

If you are interested in remodeling, I have contractors who are capable of finishing a basement.  Call me at 970-672-6069  Margaret Herdt Turn Key Realty 

5 Things You Need To Know To Sell Your Probate Acquired Property!

Selling a Probate Acquired property has many challenges that are different from your normal real estate sale. here are 5 things you need to know to sell a home you have acquired in a probate/estate

1. vacant homes

Homes that are vacant for more than 30 days are not covered by standard homeowner policies.  This is a major issue and one that most Personal Representative or real estate agents are not aware of.  Since most families have 80% of their assets in their home, an uninsured tragedy could be devastating emotionally and financially.  Although a Vacant Home Policy is more expensive than a traditional home policy, isn't it worth it to have the asset covered?  We are able to help you find an insurance agent that can solve this problem with a Vacant House policy – month to month.  

2. CLEAN OUT

Many Heirs and Personal Representatives live out of the area. When there is real estate in the estate, the family usually come and take the family heirlooms but are left with an entire home full of contents that they have no idea what to do with. We call this “Probate Quicksand”.  this is one of the biggest challenges when selling a probate home.  Our clean out crews will dispose of the rest – if that is the families wishes. If necessary we have contractors and handyman services to fix up any needed items, pressure wash and clean the home up in order to get the maximum dollars in the sale. Since we are a Probate Resource we can handle most necessary home challenges. It could take weeks/months to find a responsible crew to do this work.  With an out of town Personal Representative, this could take even longer. Many of the people we help never even leave their home and we never meet them. they can stay home and tend to their family and jobs while we do the work.

3. KEEP PROPERTY MAINTAINED

Now you have two homes or three homes or ???  Homes deteriorate when not occupied, so the sooner you decide what to do with this asset the better.  How will you get the yard work done and keep up with maintenance?  We have people who can assist you in maintaining the home.  We are just a call away.

4. OPTIONS FOR THE SALE

You have three options for selling the property.  A. You can sell to a flipper/wholesaler for 70 cents on the dollar. The advantages to this are they buy it "as is".  We have investors who are interested in these type homes.   B. Place it on the open market for market value.  This is usually done by a licensed realtor.  In our current Colorado market, this process usually takes 30-45 days. If repairs are needed, we have a vast group of individuals who can make these necessary repairs.  We have had over 20 yrs selling real estate assets and can help you with this process. or  C. Sell it yourself.  Typically this takes a lot of time that most Personal Representatives don't have.  D.  What if the remaining spouse needs to be removed from the home to a safer environment.  We have a team of people that we can refer you to for help with this matter too.  

5. OPTIONS FOR THE PROCEEDS

After the sale of the assets, the proceeds need to be divided amongst the heirs.  If there are positive proceeds left then it's time to decide what to do with that money.  Will you invest in an investment property to generate further income?  Will you invest the money in stocks, bonds, etc?  A financial planner might be an option.  We have a list of financial planners we work with that can help with this.  Or, if you plan on buying real estate then we can assist you in what type of property to purchase.  It might be a residential property, commercial entity, luxury home, second home, vacation home, townhome, etc.  We have been involved in all of these type transactions and have been selling real estate for 20 years.  

FREE SERVICE So as you can see we have a lot of people on our team that can help you.  Why go it alone?  With so many options at our fingertips and our service is FREE, why do it yourself.

The Time Burden of a Probate Executor

The Executor of an estate has 75% of the work to do in a probate situation.  It's a huge time burden for those individuals who have this responsibility.  In addition to a job and your own family, the first thing an executor/attorney will do is file a petition to probate.  That's the easy part.  Here is a timeline on the process.

Step in Process Duration

Prepare and File Petition Probate	1-2 months
A court hearing on the petition for probate	2-3 months
The following are issued. letter of administration, order for probate, duties, and liabilities, issue bond (if ordered)&** letters testamentary **	2-4 months(if not contested)
Notice to Creditors	2-4 months
Notice to Department of Health Services Inventory & Appraisement	4-8 months
Pay state and Federal Taxes ( if necessary)	6-12 months
Allow or Reject Creditor Claims
Possible Preliminary Distributions
Notice to Department of Health Services (if deceased received medical)
Notice to Franchise Tax Board (if the heir is out of state)
A claim of Exemption (if assets transfer to a minor)	6-15 months
Receive Final Tax Letter from state and Federal (if appropriate)	6-18 months
File Petition for Final Distribution and Accounting	8-16 months
Hearing on Petition for Final Distribution and Accounting
Order Approving Final Distribution and Accounting
Distribution  of Assets to Heirs	9-17 months
Final Discharge Order (indicates close of probate case)	9-18 months
Final Distribution of Funds	9-18 months

In addition to the process above, if there are assets (property) to sell, then the home needs
* cleaned out
* personal property needs to be sold, auctioned or donated
* repairs need to be made
* the lawn needs to be kept up
* locksmith to rekey the property
* different insurance needs to be purchased if the home is vacant
* interview realtors
* review offers
* make any repairs the buyer may want to be done, if applicable

* transfer the deed to the new buyer

* figure out what to do with the proceeds

All these things and more can be expected of an Executor.  Other than an Attorney, your most valued resource will be a real estate team that is trained and experienced in probate and inherited property sales.  Your time is valuable and do you have the resources that my team does?  You need a probate resource!
