Survive Buying First House By Doing Homework

The lowest home prices in years and
tax incentives are driving many people
to purchase their first home.
First-time home buyers easily can
be overwhelmed by the process of buy-
ing a home. In addition to the legal
hurdles associated with purchasing a
home, the stress of committing such a
substantial amount of money can lead
to some sleepless nights.
But first-time home buyers can pre-
pare themselves for the process ahead
of time. Though the following tips
might not guarantee a smooth and
stress-free home buying experience,
they can answer a few questions and
facilitate the process.
• Establish a price range. As the
housing crisis of the last several
years indicated, many homeowners
got in over their heads. Some lost
their homes to foreclosure, while oth-
ers found it extremely difficult to pay
their mortgage each month. First-time
buyers can avoid such scenarios by
honestly assessing what they can af-
ford and searching for homes within
their price range. A host of websites,
including some lender sites, provide
free mortgage calculators so buyers
can see what they can afford. Lenders
often recommend spending less than
30 percent of income on housing costs.
• Research rates and taxes. Certain
external factors beyond the price of the
home will factor into a homeowner’s
monthly financial commitment. Taxes
and homeowner’s insurance can vary
greatly depending on a home’s loca-
tion. Research property taxes in differ-
ent communities, and shop around for
homeowner’s insurance when looking
for a home.
• Expect to pay costs. Closing costs
are often a big shock to first-time home
buyers. Closing costs include lender
fees, title and settlement fees, taxes,
and homeowner’s insurance or hom-
eowner’s association fees. Bankrate.
com provides an annual closing cost
survey for buyers to get a better feel of
just what they will be spending when
the time comes to sign on the dotted
line. A lender can also give an esti-
mate of what the fees may total.
• Consult professionals. Area real
estate professionals might be able to
tell what the real estate market is
like at the moment. Prices might be
on the rise, on the decline or remain-
ing steady. If looking in a specific area,
consult with a real estate agent about
the area and what to expect.
When shopping for a home, buyers
should expect the unexpected. How-
ever, the surprise element can be re-
duced if buyers do their homework be-
fore beginning the buying process.

Nine Interior Fixes To Help Sell A Home Fast

Take steps to set house
apart from the competition
Despite low interest rates and declining sale
prices, there is still a lot of home inventory avail-
able. That means homeowners thinking about sell-
ing have to do whatever they can to set their homes
apart from the others available.
Real estate experts call it “staging,” or present-
ing the home in the best light so potential buyers
can envision themselves moving right in. Just a few
changes here and there can position a home to sell
faster than the competition.
1. The nose knows. A house can be perfect inside
and out, but if it smells bad, buyers will likely be put
off. Make sure there is no noticeable odor, such as pet
smells, garbage, or stale smoke to turn off others.
2. Clear out. Make sure the interior looks as spa-
cious as possible. This could mean taking out some
furniture and temporarily putting it in storage. Be
sure countertops in bathrooms and kitchens are free
of clutter. And pack away knick-knacks that can col-
lect dust.
3. Cater to the lazy person. Potential buyers gener-
ally want to move in and simply unpack. They don’t
want to make major repairs. Therefore, homeown-
ers should do whatever repairs are possible, within
reason. If that means tearing down dated wallpaper
or replacing carpeting with hardwood floors, it could
mean a faster sale.
4. Do a deep cleaning. Whether a cleaning service
is hired or the homeowner does it himself, tackling
necessary cleaning projects could make the home
shine. Now is the time to wash the windows, sham-
poo the carpets, regrout the bathrooms, and tackle
all of those messes that could compromise a sale.
5. Add a fresh coat of paint. If walls are bright
colors or eclectic, it could pay to paint rooms in
more neutral shades to appeal to the masses. Just
be aware that some buyers are suspicious of paint,
especially freshly painted ceilings. They may think a
homeowner is trying to hide something, usually wa-
ter stains.
6. Keep the home updated. While one doesn’t have
to follow every trend, ensuring the home is ageless
can make for a better sell. So if the cabinets scream
1985 and the bathroom is circa 1967, it could be time
to do some updating.
7. Create “happy” spaces. Buyers don’t want to
purchase a dark home that seems full of doom and
gloom. Open the windows, turn on the lights, add
lights to dark rooms and use light colors as room
accents. Generally buyers want a bright and light
home.
8. Avoid provocation. One potential buyer could be
an animal lover, another a political activist. No one
can tell who will view the home. So don’t display per-
sonal items that might offend. Take down mounted
deer heads and put away books that may seem of-
fensive. It can be a good idea to store religious items
as well.
9. Clean out closets and cabinets. Partially emp-
ty closets and cabinets give the suggestion that the
home is large and has plenty of storage space – so
much so that it doesn’t even all need to be used. Buy-
ers who see jam-packed closets could wonder what’s
up with storage.
Selling a home in a tough market can be easier
when homeowners take the steps needed to stage
homes for a faster sale.

Colorful Homes Brighten Neighborhoods

“I wanted something that
was different. If you can’t
have color in your life it’s
like not having laughter.”
by Jaime Mowers
Carol Stout loves to walk the streets
of her Webster Groves neighborhood
enjoying the sight of many beautiful
homes.
Those that are painted bold, bright
colors always catch her eye. She even
has a name for them – The Colors of
Webster.
“I love to see the houses around
here – there are a lot of colorful homes
in Webster,” said Stout, who lives on
Baker Avenue. “They represent Web-
ster. Whenever I see one, I think,
‘That’s so Webster!’”
Stout loves the multicolor home
that sits on the corner of North Rock
Hill Road and Oak Street in Webster.
“I applaud their courage to do some-
thing different,” she said.
The home, located at 403 Oak Street,
is periwinkle with red and turquoise
trim. Most passers-by have dubbed it
the purple house on the corner. Nola
This charming home on East Jefferson Avenue in Kirkwood is owned by Fred and
Chinkie Taussig. The pink house is highlighted in maroon and shades of green.
Waters, who has lived there for 24
years, just gave the house its snazzy
paint job a little more than a year ago.
“I wanted something that was dif-
photo by Diana Linsley
ferent,” Waters said. “If you can’t have
color in your life it’s like not having
laughter.”
And color she has. Waters says the
red trim on the house is like “lipstick
on a lady.” Pair that with the bright
turquoise shutters and people take
notice. “People have been out on the
street and just stopped to tell me how
much they like it,” she said.
The best part for Waters is being
able to come home to her cheerful-
looking house every day after work. “It
makes me smile when I come across
the train tracks,” she said. “It’s my
periwinkle palace.”
A half-mile away sits another col-
orful home. Situated at the corner
of South Maple and East Swon, the
century home that was built in 1886
boasts a creamy pink-peach color.
“People say it’s pink, but it’s apri-
cot,” said Carrie Rao, who moved into
the house with her husband, Kumar
Roe, five years ago.
The couple decided to paint their
home the apricot color (with gray ac-
cents) three years ago when they
wanted something different from the
norm. Carrie Rao noted there are sev-
eral blue, taupe, gray and white homes
in the neighborhood.
“I didn’t want it to be like every-
thing else,” she said.

Besides the fact that Carrie Rao is
fond of peach-like colors, she also was
inspired by a nearby salmon-colored
home.
“We started eliminating colors and
this is what was left,” she said. “It’s
bold.”
Color In Kirkwood
Kirkwood has its own collection of
colorful homes – including one that’s
been called the bubble-gum-colored
house and garnered many compli-
ments from those walking the neigh-
borhood. Passers-by even gave their
input when the owners put different
colored shutters on the house during
a trial run.
The two-and-a-half story Victorian
home that sits on the corner of North
Harrison and Washington is owned
by Gary and Terry Sibbitts. When
they bought the house 11 years ago, it
was painted three shades of gray and
white. Two years ago they transformed
it into an eye-catching combination of
periwinkle, plum and white.
The base is a light shade of periwin-
kle, the shutters are a darker shade
of periwinkle and the house is high-
lighted by a bright, rich plum or berry
color. From the side, the supports –
which are dark periwinkle and white
– look like ribbons. Gary Sibbitts said
he and his wife wanted to pull out the
details of their historic century home.
And, Terry Sibbitts added, “We want-
ed it to be fun.”
Periwinkle is Terry Sibbitts’ favorite
color, and the couple decided the plum
and white worked well with it. “Those
are just colors we like,” she said.
She gives big praise to Mark Pirozzi
of Pirozzi Painting who spent several
months on the makeover. “They did an
amazing job,” she said.
The couple gets confirmation of that
every time someone stops to admire the
home. “We get a lot of compliments,”
Terry Sibbetts said. “When they look
at the house it makes them smile.”
Not far away is another charm-
ing home owned by Fred and Chinkie
Taussig. The two-and-a-half story
house on East Jefferson Avenue is a
pink color highlighted by a maroon
and shades of green. Fred Taussig de-
scribes his home as a “charming gin-
gerbread Victorian house.”
Nola Waters owns what most people refer to as “the Purple House,” located at 403
Oak Street in Webster Groves.
It’s not pink, it’s apricot say owners Kumar and Carrie Rao. The home is located
at the corner of South Maple and East Swon in Webster Groves. At left, details of
a dormer window.
When the Taussigs moved in 32
years ago the house was a gray or yel-
low – they can’t even remember. It was
about 20 years ago when they decided
the house was just too dull.
“We thought it would be Victorian
to have a bright color rose or pink and
that’s what inspired us to do it,” Fred
Taussig said. “We’ve been happy with
it ever since.”
He said lots of people stop to admire
the house.
“People are really fascinated by it,”
he said. “We’ll be outside working and
they’ll just compliment us on the beau-
tiful colors of the house.”

A “Green” House Has Many Meanings
Architect Dan Stauder
followed strict “LEED”
standards in new
Kirkwood home
Ask any homebuilder what the pri-
mary word in residential development
is. The answer will be “green.”
But what, exactly, is a green home?
Never has a word lost its meaning so
quickly in the dense forest of market-
ing hype. It could mean the builder in-
stalled a low-flow toilet or it could be
LEED-certified, which means impar-
tial experts have determined the home
meets stringent environmental and
energy-efficiency standards.
To become LEED-certified, the ar-
chitect must incorporate environmental
factors into every aspect of the home’s
design and construction, including its
size, location, orientation on the prop-
erty, building materials and choice of
heating and cooling systems. Although
LEED homes cost slightly more to
build, the added costs are quickly re-
couped in energy savings. And because
they also reduce pollutants, green
homes are safer for the homeowner and
the community.
But is there a market for LEED
homes? St. Louis architect Daniel
Stauder of Stauder Architecture be-
lieves there is, and he has built one to
LEED standards in the middle of Kirk-
wood. The three bedroom, two-and-a-
half bath house is located at 297 Frieda
Ave. and is under contract to be sold.
“I believe there are people who un-
derstand that a home is more than four
walls, a roof and a monthly mortgage
payment,” Stauder said. “They see
their home as a reflection of who they
are, not how much they are worth. They
care about the quality of their neigh-
borhood, about their home’s effect on
the environment and on the available
resources of their community.”
LEED, which stands for Leader-
ship in Energy and Environmental De-
sign, was developed by the U.S. Green
Building Council. To achieve LEED-
certification, a home must accumulate
a certain number of points in seven rat-
ing categories. As a house accumulates
more points, it attains higher certifica-

Equal Housing opportunity
For LEED certification, the house at 297 Frieda Ave. had to meet a certain num-
ber of points in seven categories, both exterior and interior.
tion levels, ranging from silver to gold
to platinum. Stauder targeted a silver
certification in the house, one of the few
LEED-certified homes in Kirkwood.
The Stauder home illustrates how a
home garners points:
1. “Locations and Linkages” awards
points for selecting a site with environ-
mental and cost advantages. A typi-
cally new development requires more
land, roads, water and sewers, more
traffic and public transportation.
The Stauder home sits on a moder-
ate-size lot. It places minimal burden
on the city’s infrastructure and resourc-
es. Although it is more than four times
the size of the demolished structure,
the two-story design takes up only 600
more square feet of land, leaving ample
front and back yards.
2. “Sustainable Sites” dictates the
placement of the home with respect to
the sun.
The Stauder home is designed with
a long east-west axis with large south-
facing windows shielded by carefully-
sized overhangs. In winter, the low
southern sun provides free warmth.
In summer, the overhangs shield high
summer sun.
3. “Water Efficiency” seeks to limit
the use of water inside and out. Al-
though water shortages are not a prob-
lem in St. Louis, waste-water disposal,
both storm and sanitary is.
The Kirkwood home includes high-
efficiency plumbing fixtures and a
high-tech piping system incorporat-
ing a manifold that distributes water
to each fixture as needed. This system
also reduces the amount of hot water
cooling down in the pipes when no one
is at home. The home keeps all plumb-
ing fixtures close to the water heater,
which minimizes heat loss through the
building and provides hot water quick-
ly. No more running the shower for five
minutes to warm it up.
4. “Energy and Atmosphere” is all
about limiting the use of oil, coal and

gas in the construction and operation
of the home, saving the cost of heating
and air conditioning, and minimizing
pollution caused by the building and
use of the home.
The average home has a 50- to 100-
year life. In its lifetime, it consumes
tons of non-renewable and imported
energy and pours many tons of carbon
dioxide into the atmosphere. A LEED
home uses 30 to 40 percent less elec-
tricity and saves more than 100 tons of
carbon pollution over its life span.
The Stauder home features a geo-
thermal system in which the majority
of the energy needed to heat and cool
the home comes from the earth, cost
free. Three 200-foot wells circulate
water that uses the earth’s consistent
temperature to reduce the need for
heating in the winter and cooling in the
summer. The home is also constructed
with extremely large amounts of insu-
lation. All cracks and duct seams are
sealed.
5. “Materials and Resources” recog-
nizes the huge quantity of energy need-
ed to extract, process and transport
building materials and the tremendous
waste generated in building the home.
Points are awarded for the use of ma-
terials that are recycled, made locally
and low in volatile, toxic chemicals.
Stauder’s home features an “ad-
vanced framing” system, which reduces
the amount of lumber needed. It incor-
porates composite wood materials, re-
cycled insulation and hardwood floors
made from bamboo, a rapidly renew-
able resource.
6. “Indoor Air Quality” awards
points for limiting hazardous pollut-
ants in the home, including carbon
monoxide, radon, mold, mildew, dust
and formaldehyde.
The Stauder home features exterior
walls that, though highly insulated
and sealed, can nevertheless breathe,
avoiding the buildup of moisture and
mold which can remain throughout the
lifetime of the building.
7. “Awareness and Education” offers
points for training homeowners so the
full benefits of the LEED home will be
realized.

LEED house, contact Stauder at dan@

Finding The Right Real Estate Agent Professional Real

Finding an experienced real
estate agent can make buying
a house less stressful
Buying a home is often a difficult thing
to do. The stress of making such a big
financial commitment is a struggle
for many home buyers, whether
they have purchased a home in
the past or are doing so for the first
time.
One way to make the process a lot less
anxiety-ridden is for potential home buy-
ers to work with a real estate agent they
can trust. Those who have previ-
ously purchased a home might al-
ready have a strong relationship
with a real estate agent. But for
those moving out of their current
location or buying for the first time, finding the
right real estate agent requires some effort. Those in
the market for an agent to help navigate the home
buying process should consider the following tips.
• Find a buyer’s agent. Real estate agents are
often affiliated with sellers instead of buyers. This
means their primary goal is to help the seller and not
the buyer. When shopping around for a real estate
agent, ask companies about their buyer’s agents.
Buyers should always have someone with their in-
terests in mind, and not the interests of the sellers.
• Find someone with a track record. Real estate
can be an exciting and financially rewarding indus-
try in which to work. As a result, lots of people want
to be real estate agents, even though few succeed
and last a long time. When interviewing real estate
agents, inquire about their history in the business.
A more experienced agent will make things far less
stressful and easier, and a long career indicates they
are good at what they do.
• Don’t place too much
emphasis on agency
size. Real estate agen-
cies come in all shapes
and sizes. When
it comes to abil-
ity, the size of the
agency should
not factor in. A
smaller indepen-
dent agency
can be just
as quali-
fied and
reliable as
one of the major
franchise agencies. Buyers who
find someone they trust should go with that person,
regardless of how big or small their agency is.
• Get a referral. Friends and family members who
have been through the buying process before might
be great resources. Buyers looking in “Town X” who
have friends or family already living there should
consult those friends or family and ask for any agent
referrals. Those relocating because of work should
ask their company to refer an agent. Chances are
companies have relocated employees in the past and
might have a strong relationship with an agency in
town.
Estate Designations
Real estate professionals have a myriad of designa-
tions. Here’s a sampling of a few of them:
GRI – Graduate, REALTOR® Institute is a nationally-
recognized educational institute dedicated to furthering
the fundamental knowledge and skills of REALTORS®
with fewer than five years experience.  It is also available
to more experienced real estate practitioners to help
them stay current on issues and to reinforce basic skills.  
REALTOR® – holds a real estate license from the state
and is a member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF
REALTORS®, C.A.R., a local board or association, and has
pledged to abide by NAR’s Code of Ethics.
 
ABR – Accredited Buyer Representative is a desig-
nation from the Real Estate Buyer’s Agent Council that
trains experienced REALTORS® in specifically represent-
ing the real estate consumer.
CRE – Counselor of Real Estate is a member of The
Counselors of Real Estate, an international group of rec-
ognized professionals who provide seasoned, objective
advice on real property and land-related matters.
Membership is by invitation only.
 
QSC – Quality Service Certified. This designation
may be the most important credential a real estate pro-
fessional can hold. A Quality Service Certified sales pro-
fessional is held to a standard which requires account-
ability, reliability and consistency – the ongoing delivery
of quality service on each transaction.
SRES – Seniors Real Estate Specialist. These
Realtors help seniors make wise decisions about selling
the family home, buying rental property or managing the
capital gains and tax implications of owning real estate.
