TIPS TO KEEP THE HOME'S PLUMBING IN GOOD SHAPE!!

-Pre 1980 homes normally will have an older style drainage piping, for instance "Cast Iron piping" for the home.  A sewer video camera to inspect the condition of the drainage piping is highly recommended to ensure the house you are buying will not require any major work.

-Things to inspect in the Bathroom(s)/Kitchen when checking for leak(s), the first sign is "is there a humid smell?" The cabinets, Is there swelling at the base of the cabinets? Is the base of the cabinet sagging? If you answered yes to any of these questions there is a leak going on!!

-The Most neglected area in the bathroom is the Stand-Up shower and Bathtub- The base of the Shower/Bathtub will develop signs of mold or tiles getting loose and the normal thing to do is the clean it and/or reattach the tiles, but if that sign of mold comes back!  That is a sign of a water leak or water intrusion of some kind and that should be checked by a Professional!!

-Want to save up 30% on your utility bill with plumbing!?!?!   Convert you conventional tank style heater to a tankless hot water heater, Both natural/propane gas and electric have tankless style heaters for any size house.  The tankless heater works "only" when you turn on a hot water fixture and the tank style heater works all day to keep that water hot, even when you are at work or sleeping!!

-"You get what you pay for" -we have all heard this term used before and it is a fact when it comes to buying plumbing fixtures!! Buying a inexpensive store brand fixture will look nice at the store and on day one, but the parts are more than likely to fail within the first year or the finish of the faucet will tarnish.  Unfortunately, you will probably end up not finding the repair parts for that faucet and you will end up buying a new faucet.  Buying a quality fixture will have the following; longevity, easy maintenance and lifetime warranty on parts and finish.

Roof Inspections

A roof inspection should be done by a licensed roofing contractor and it should include not only the roof, but also the parapets, flashings and drainage system. A knowledgeable professional will present you with a detailed report of conditions they found, including photographs and a sketch of the roof indicating the problem areas.

The cost of a roof inspection is minor when compared to the cost of repairing or replacing your roof, and should be considered as a wise investment and preventive measure. It is a lot better and cost effective to find potential leaks and related damages before they become real problems and turn into major repair bills.

Power of Attorney? Revocable Living Trust?  Pre-need Guardian Designation?

 Everyone should have a durable power of attorney for finances assuming that they have a spouse, domestic partner, friend, or relative on whom they can depend to manage their finances in the event that they should become unable to do so.  That being said, the durable power of attorney can be voided by court order if you have motivated blood relatives who think they are more qualified than your chosen care giver to handle your finances if you become incapacitated.  Many states have statutes on the books that deem any person “related to you by blood or marriage” to be preferred as your legal guardian over an “unrelated individual,” even if he or she has been your domestic partner for years.  In your state it may be possible for you to name your partner as your pre-need guardian or conservator and in that manner make it more likely that in the event of an incapacity proceeding your partner will be named as your legal guardian.  That being said, if you have significant assets, or relatives you fear would interfere, by far the safest way to avoid trouble is to place your assets in a revocable living trust.  It is very difficult to “bust a trust,” and as a rule, pesky relatives are after your money, and really not all that concerned about who is doing the care giving.

 What about the house?

  While upon the disability of one partner jointly held financial and investment assets often pose an  immediate concern, a jointly held homestead residence will be treated differently in most states.  The healthy partner will likely be allowed to reside in the jointly owned home undisturbed, however, upon sale, or the death of the second partner, the state may seek to re-coup the financial assistance provided from the proceeds or estate of the second owner.
