Market Activity Report June 12th – 18th, 2017

Hey everybody,
Gosh it is hot! As I was going through my Facebook today I saw that people in Arizona were posting pictures of things melting in the heat! I am very thankful that it does not get so hot here at least, however it is still very hot.
During the week of the 12th through the 18th we saw 25 new listings, 26 pending properties, and 27 sold homes. One of the more interesting houses for me to see reach the market is the property on 4660 Upper Dr. This house was on my running route as I grew up here in LO. I remember seeing that house, but do not really remember anything about it other than it was yellow. It never really stood out to me, and then it gets a complete remodel and it is stunning! Way to turn an old home into a beautiful masterpiece.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

Take Asbestos Seriously

Asbestos Crystal
This post is prompted by an article I read this morning in this week’s Lake Oswego Review. A woman on Weatherstone in Mountain Park started a home renovation project last June. She removed 1300 square feet of asbestos ceilings without taking proper care for its containment. The DEQ inspected the sight on July 8, 2016 and found asbestos debris inside of the house, on clothing, personal belongings, the heat register, and outside of the house on the porch, walkway, and mulched perimeter. This woman has now been fined $31,200.

That’s a lot of money. And all because she was likely trying to save money on the project by either doing it herself of by hiring an unlicensed contractor. Some savings.

Pipe wrapped in asbestos
Asbestos is nasty stuff. It is a naturally occurring silicate mineral that is made up of fibrous crystals. It is strong, insulates well, and is fire resistant. Because of the nature of the material it was wildly popular in home construction for years.

Where it is a hazard is if it is torn or worn to allow the fibrous crystals to become dust in the air that you can then breathe in. Those little crystals get into your lungs and get stuck. You can not cough them out. They stay in your lungs for years and years continually irritating the area until they can become cancer.

Think about what this lady did. She had the particles all over her house, inside and out, on heat registers where they would be additionally blown about and circulated. There is no way that she hasn’t exposed herself to breathing that stuff in, along with everyone else in the house hold. It’s just plain stupid, stupid, stupid.

About 3 years ago I sold a house that had asbestos popcorn ceilings. I had the home owner have them professionally removed prior to putting the house up for sale because the ceilings were visibly damaged. It was about 1000 square feet, and as I recall it cost $4000. This was removing the old ceiling and then texturing and painting a new ceiling. There is not so much money involved here that could possibly make improper removal even a tempting option. Just. Don’t. Do. It.

Stay safe and be smart,
Dianne

Market Activity Report for May 1st – 7th, 2017

Hey everybody!
Hope everybody has had a good week. In the start of May we saw a lot of activity. Many high end houses being sold in this beautiful city of Lake Oswego.
As I was doing the report I noticed that there were some familiar houses. I have now been in real estate long enough to see houses be sold, go active, then be sold again! And the improvements are just gorgeous.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

Earth Advantage Designation

I am pleased to let you know that I have become an Earth Advantage Designated Broker. What does this mean? It means that I have attended and passed a course that gives me this accreditation. I have a very strong personal interest in living my life sustain-ably and making choices based upon being environmentally aware (yes, I used cloth diapers on my children and adore re-usable grocery bags). So this felt like an easy and natural thing to take on. I want to share with you a bit of what I have learned.

Earth Advantage is a third-party organization that is very active here in Oregon. These organizations tend to be regional with about 70 of them around the United States. What they do is set standards that are regionally acknowledged to allow home owners, builders, and Realtors to have a basis of understanding a criteria of environmental sustainability.

Earth Advantage is commonly seen in new construction. Builders long ago learned that building to these standards is popular with home buyers. An Earth Advantage designation on a new home makes that home more competitive as a commodity to be sold. So it not only helps the environment, but it helps the profitability of the home for the builder. An Earth Advantage home must have met sustainability standards that are 15% more stringent than building just to local code requirements. This means the house is built to be energy efficient, it takes into consideration where materials come from, and how materials are disposed of. Did you know that it takes an average of 13 years for the world to recover the resources that go into building a new home?

Earth Advantage designations can also be given to homes that are already built. In fact, the most sustainable home you can buy is one that is already built. You can do improvements to an already built home, think new windows, insulation, water conservation, that will make the existing home come up to modern standards for sustainability. A good place to start is by contacting Energy Trust of Oregon (energytrust.org) and obtaining one of their free energy saver kits. To go straight to the website, click here.

This is going to come into play in a big way, particularly in the City of Portland. Beginning January 1, 2018, selling a house in Portland will require providing a home energy score to prospective purchasers. While this is not going to be required in Lake Oswego, I do believe it is going to raise awareness of houses energy efficiency for consumers, and that we will see buyers of homes in Lake Oswego asking for similar accommodations from sellers.

I think we pretty easily understand the benefits of energy efficiency and sustainability for houses. It saves money, particularly over time. It can be better for our health. And it is environmentally responsible. I think some of the most exciting things you can do when you start to prioritize energy efficiency and sustainability are also just super easy. Did you know that putting in a $10 low-flow shower head can save you about $150 a year? Wrapping your water heater with a $25 insulated blanket can save you $200 a year? Things like light bulbs, programmable thermostats, and smart power strips are inexpensive and give you big pay back.

OK. I’ll get down off of my soap box. I hope you can tell that this is a subject that I really like. Feel free to reach out with questions on this subject. All three of us, Linda, Whitney, and myself, love to hear from you.
