Now open for dinner and coffee, the Rustic Goat is receiving some rave reviews! After the closing of a historic, 100 year old cannery building, Kaladi Brother's Coffee decided to expand. They reused the wood of the old cannery to help construct it's new venture, the Rustic Goat restaurant. <br />

In the
modern laundry room, anything goes! From color selections to wall
décor, go bold to show off individuality and personality. Cover the
basics in terms of appliances, organization and functionality, and then
let creativity rule to help build a workable space that's also enjoyable
to be in.<br />
<h2>
Cover the Basics</h2>
There are a few obvious features that should be included in every
laundry room. A washer and dryer, ironing board and utility sink are
obvious "musts." Consider functional placement of these items to ensure
ease of work. Washer and dryer units can be stacked or placed on
pedestals for added under-unit storage when space is limited. Ironing
boards can be built into or attached to the wall (only being lowered
when in use) to again preserve valuable space. If possible, cabinetry
and shelving should be included for storage of laundry soaps or
additional cleaning supplies. Adequate counter space should also be
considered to allow for folding clothes or sorting laundry, and closet
space is handy for additional storage or air-drying delicates.<br />
<h2>
Building Off of Bold, Beautiful Color</h2>
Think of this room as your blank canvas to do with what you'd like.
Classic laundry room color selections typically include clean, crisp
whites or shades of pale blue. This color palette pairs perfectly with
the feel and smell of warm, clean sheets and freshly folded towels.<br />
Don't be afraid to choose bold wall colors such as red, green, yellow
and even pink to liven up your space and make it more playful and fun.
Add throw rugs and accessorize with complimentary colors. Have a utility
sink skirt designed with a color or pattern that pairs well to add more
flair and conceal added storage space underneath. Consider covering an
accent wall with a patterned wallpaper and add a jeweled chandelier to
create a shabby chic look. If your home has an overall established theme
such as Tuscan, rustic or maybe even Southwest, consider maintaining
this consistency in your laundry room.<br />
<h2>
Miscellaneous Décor</h2>
In addition to the fun décor items already mentioned above, this is
where you can add personality to your laundry room. Consider a
custom-made patterned valence for a window to enhance the room's theme
while inviting an abundance of natural sunlight into your working space.<br />
To create a rustic feel, consider adding vintage laundry accessories
into your space, such as old washboards and irons or weathered metal
buckets. Add vintage wall signage in wood or metal, and consider an old
accordion wooden peg rack, which can be functional in addition to
rustic.<br />
Create a more contemporary feel with an appropriate light fixture and
minimal wall décor. Keep your space tidy, clean and simple, adding only
a classic vase with fresh flowers for a splash of color. Decorative
wall tile such as subway tiles establish a more refined, modern
environment.<br />
A modern-day laundry room can include anything from classic framed
prints that coincide with your chosen theme to wooden laundry signs or
even wall decals and stencils. Block letters spelling "laundry" can also
be fun and, depending upon space, can be either hung on a wall or sit
on a shelf.<br />
<h2>
A Functional Space With Style</h2>
Bearing in mind that the laundry room serves a very specific purpose,
there are still countless ways to maintain a very functional, organized
workspace "with style." It can be fun and easy to accessorize while
being practical.<br />
Instead of leaving exposed laundry soaps or fabric softeners on your
counters or shelves, use decorative wire or wicker baskets to conceal
them while adding some charm. Decorative jars, including apothecary or
mason jars, make great storage for anything from laundry soaps and loose
dryer sheets to clothespins. Creative labeling can be a neat way to add
additional detail and personality.<br />
Think creatively. Let your personality be your inspiration. Use the
decorative tips mentioned above to design your own unique laundry room.<br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Kitchens are the number one place a home buyer will
spend thousands of dollars on if it’s renovated. In fact, many buyers fall in

2013 says the cost to renovate a 200-square-foot kitchen with wood cabinets, an

That price also includes new appliances, lighting and flooring. Just imagine
what it would cost for a truly gourmet kitchen! As Alaskans we also have to
take into account costs of materials and labor is more expensive than it is in
the Lower 48 states.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

what important documents or ideas property owners should be aware of come tax
time. Mark felt property owners should be more aware of what “basis” means
and what impact it can have on property owners’ taxes. He was gracious enough to take some
time to explain more about basis to our readers. We hope you learn something
as you continue to read. If at the end of the article you would like more

subject to depreciation deductions, put a copy of the depreciation schedule
from your tax documents for each year in the file.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When the property is sold, computing and

for 3 years from the due date of the tax return on which the documented items
are included.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This means you must keep
documentation of basis for 3 years after the due date for the last year that
the property you are documenting appears on your tax return.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For real estate, this could be many
years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For instance, let’s say you
purchased a house in 2012.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you live
in this house until 2020, at which time you sell the house, you will have to
keep the file containing basis documentation for 3 years after filing your tax
return for 2020.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since the return is due
on April 15, 2021, the documentation must be kept until at least April 15,
2024!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Anchorage FSBO Market</span></div>
<w:wrap type="topAndBottom"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> The For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) Market often presents a
tempting picture to buyers. They may choose to search these homes believing it
will save them the commission fee or will garner them a great deal. Others may
simply be searching to see what inventory is available. Whatever your reason
for searching through these listings may be, we urge you to educate yourself as
much as possible on the home buying process. Learn where an agent’s commission
comes from, and understand the time commitment and risks involved in going through
the process unrepresented. While we believe choosing an agent to represent you
is a wise move, we are more concerned with providing buyers with resources so
they can make the best decision for their family and particular needs. Below is
a short discussion on a few common reasons buyers choose to search the FSBO
market alone.<o:p></o:p></span></w:wrap><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">One of the most common
reasons unrepresented buyers scour the FSBO market is because many are confused
over where the commission for their agent’s services comes from. Buyers, your
agent’s commission comes from the seller. Please don’t think you will have to
pay their commission on top of your closing costs. The seller will be paying
their commission. An agent can help you find the right home, negotiate the
price for you, and handle all the paperwork in addition to showing you
information on comparable homes and helping you determine how much you really
can afford. So the question remains: why would you not want to take advantage
of an agent’s services when you get this wealth of knowledge at no additional
expense to you? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Secondly, buyers may
search the FSBO market hoping to negotiate with the seller for a better deal on
a home. Usually these buyers have bought and sold homes previously with or
without the assistance of an agent. Occasionally, this might work in a buyer’s
favor. However, it is likely unintentional on the seller’s part. I have to ask:
why would a seller who doesn’t know the buyer want to give them a great deal on
their house? Most sellers would instead be happy to pocket the additional
savings rather than sharing those savings with the buyer. Sellers on the FSBO
market are most likely hoping to recognize a substantial savings. This being
the case, a buyer may find himself or herself struggling to negotiate a “fair”
price for a home. If you do find your dream home on the FSBO market, consider
the time and effort involved in purchasing that home. Are you prepared to
present an offer, negotiate the price, work through the home inspection and
appraisal process, and keep in contact with your lender? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The Anchorage FSBO
market has only a handful of houses currently listed. If you are a buyer only
looking at FSBOs, you are limiting yourself. The traditional market is picking
up and more people are beginning to list their homes with an agent’s help.
These homes are listed on the Alaska MLS and can be viewed through our<a href="http://www.findhomesinanchorage.com/search/" target="_blank"> website</a>.
We want you to know you can visit our website to find homes in Anchorage today with
no pressure attached.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And buyers, whether or not you choose to
enlist the services of an agent, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">please,
please, please</i> go get yourself prequalified through a lender before you
begin searching for your next house. You will have greater bargaining power if
you are prequalified before you ever step foot into that dream home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Happy House Hunting!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Market is a popular
option for sellers looking to save money on the sale of their home. The common
thought is that without the agent’s fee, a seller could save thousands of
dollars. Given data from the National Association of Realtors, the following
discussion sets out to debunk this belief. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Selling a home is a lot of work- even if you have
chosen to use an agent’s services. Getting your house in tip top condition (and
keeping it that way) can sometimes be next to impossible. Sellers will have an
edge up on the competition if they fix all those “little” things around the
house. However, more goes into selling a house than simply its condition. A
competitive market price must be set, marketing must be conducted (again and
again and again), lenders’ requirements must be met, home inspections, repairs,
and appraisals each must occur, and title must be researched. In fact, there
are potentially many more steps depending upon the complexity of the sale. As a
seller in the FSBO market, you must be able to maintain your day job, keep your
house in showroom condition, show your house, and if you get a buyer, you must
be able to handle all those steps.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sounds
daunting, right? A REALTOR© is familiar with each and every step as well as the
timeline for getting each step completed. He or she is able to effectively
market your home and balance all the various parties involved in the
transaction, allowing you to focus on living life and maybe spending time
keeping your house in showroom condition. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

their home search online? Most use sites such as Realtor.com, Zillow, or
Trulia, not to mention the many agent websites linking buyers to a local MLS.
Homes listed FSBO often have no access to these websites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although several sites do exist for FSBO
listings (forsalebyowner.com, etc.), you will not receive the exposure you
would on traditional sites. Research shows that of the nearly <strong>90%</strong> of buyers
searching online, only <strong>14%</strong> ever search on for sale by owner sites. Compare this
to the <strong>45%</strong> of these buyers who use realtor.com to search for homes. Listing
your home with an agent ensures you get the exposure you need to sell your home
with the best possible outcomes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

home on the FSBO market is <strong>$140,300</strong>. Compare this to the national average
selling price of a home sold with the assistance of an agent which is <strong>$215,000</strong>. These
numbers indicate FBSO sellers do not save money by selling on their own. Even
with the cost of commission, sellers listing with an agent saw a higher sales
price than those who chose the FSBO route. One of the primary reasons for this
is that agents are experts at pricing houses and understanding the market. Many
FSBO listings are either significantly overvalued or undervalued. Both scenarios
result in the same thing: the seller did not receive the market price for their
home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -0.25in;">

conducted a study in which they asked sellers who listed their home in the FSBO
market what their biggest problems were while trying to sell their home on
their own. Attracting potential buyers was the most difficult task for 14% of
these sellers. Other problems included getting the price right (12%),
understanding and completing all paperwork (11%), having enough time to give to
this home selling process (6%), getting the house in showroom condition (5%),
and selling within the desired timeframe (5%). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">So what does all this
mean for the Anchorage FSBO market? Sellers can and do list their homes without
the aid of a REALTOR©. However, the national statistics hold true in our city
as well. Buyers are online searching for homes. They land on websites that
offer a large selection of homes. Paperwork is confusing, and the process that
must be followed can be even more so. Choosing to list your home with a
REALTOR© will afford you many advantages. First, you’ll give buyers instant 24
hour access to view your home online. Second, an agent will prescreen buyers
before showing your home. You can feel secure knowing that all buyers who visit
your home have qualified through their lender. Third, REALTORs© are experts at
negotiating. They will work to get you the best deal on your home. Finally,
agents understand the complexities of the escrow process and understand the
time table in which various steps must be completed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">People are moving to Alaska in droves.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">According to results of a </span><a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/atlas-vans-moving-map-2013-1" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri;">recent study</span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;">
on the migration habits of Americans, Alaska is considered an inbound state;
one which is friendly to business. This very simply means people are moving to
Alaska. If you’re an Alaskan, this is probably confirmation that indeed there
do seem to be more vehicles on the roads now than there were ten years ago.
Alaska’s economy, while hit, was not hit to the extent in which many other
states were. Laws and regulations are business-friendly, encouraging companies
to remain in Alaska or relocate to Alaska. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">With more and more people moving to Alaska, and more
specifically the largest city, Anchorage, we are seeing an increased demand in
housing. More people are looking to buy homes in Alaska, and this means greater
competition for the homes on the market. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If you are one of the many people moving to Alaska, we want
to welcome you to our beautiful state! There is a wide array of activities to
do both outside of the city as well as within the city. Our </span><a href="http://www.findhomesinanchorage.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri;">main website</span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> is full of
information about the different communities in and around Anchorage as well as </span><a href="http://www.findhomesinanchorage.com/mimarket/zip/99502/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri;">market insider</span></a><span style="font-family: Calibri;">
information at your fingertips.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If you are looking to sell your home, this is a prime opportunity
to do so. Homes are moving fast and garnering excellent purchase prices. If you

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">We recently came across a great article and wanted
to share the main points. New data shows the real estate market is in recovery
compared with the past few years. The numbers are based on national data;
however, we are already seeing the 5 signs the market is recovering in
Anchorage, Alaska.</span></div>

Price and Rent increased by 5% over this time last year. For sellers, this
means you’ll be getting more for your house than you would have last year. For
buyers, this indicates an urgency to purchase a home as rent is increasing and
it won’t be long until it is more cost effective to buy versus renting.
Already, in the Anchorage market, we are seeing instances where renting is more
expensive than buying a home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau released new mortgage rules this month.
For buyers, especially those who have been hesitant to trust lenders, these
rules require all the information you need to be provided up front. The rules
are designed to protect you as you purchase a home. For sellers, this is good
news because there are a great number of people wanting to buy but hesitating
for this very reason. Given these new rules, we expect to see an increased
number of buyers enter the market searching for homes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

and foreclosures are both decreasing. In fact, the foreclosure rate is at its
lowest in 4 years. For the economy as a whole, this is good news. It means
people are able to pay their mortgages rather than losing their homes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For buyers who have been watching this number
and lacking the confidence to take on a mortgage, you can be confident with the
new rules previously mentioned and the data indicating more people are able to
afford home ownership. Sellers, with fewer foreclosures on the market, you will
most likely see an increase in purchase price.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

of millennial renters are now planning to buy a home. For sellers, this is good
news as once again, this group of buyers will enter the market searching for a
home. Competition will increase for each home listed on the market.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

are beginning to buy up real estate again before the prices really jump. For
buyers, this means you will be facing competition for the homes you find on the
market. Be ready to make an offer. Get pre-qualified from a credible lender
before starting your home search. For sellers, this means more potential buyers
coming through your door to view your home. And the more showings you have the
quicker you’ll likely have a great offer to work with.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

indicates a sellers’ market. You will likely face stiff competition when making
an offer on a property. Conversely, longer market times are supremely
beneficial for the buyer as sellers are often more than willing to negotiate
when their property has been on the market for quite some time. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Our
market is currently a seller’s market, with properties only spending a short
time on the market before going under contract. This being said, buyers can and
do benefit from this as well. The available homes are desirable, and sellers
are motivated to sell. A word to the wise: Have your ducks in a row. Get
pre-qualified before looking at houses. And when you find your perfect home,
jump in with your best offer before other buyers have that chance. If you would like more information on current market conditions please visit <a href="http://www.findhomesinanchorage.com/mimarket/zip/99567/" target="_blank">our website</a> today!</span></div>
