6 CADILLAC NEWS REAL ESTATE GUIDE AUGUST 2014
(BPT) - Moving up - vacating your current, smallish
home for a larger, roomier abode - was the American way
before the Great Recession. Now that the economy is
humming again, at least some of the people who stayed
put during those lean years will be looking to move into
larger, nicer homes this summer. High demand and low
inventory, however, may leave many with nowhere to
go. Some will rediscover a time-honored space-gaining
technique: attic conversion.
As home improvements go, converting an attic into
usable living space has a high return on investment - about
84 percent at the time of resale, according to Remodeling
Magazines Cost vs. Value Report. Thats if you use your
unnished attic to create a 15-by-15-foot bedroom and
a modest 5-by-7-foot bathroom with shower. Create a
larger, more luxurious and more elaborate space and the
ROI could be even greater. If your family is bursting
at the seams, the value of added space will be measured
in comfort, convenience and peace of mind, rather than
resale dollars.
As with any renovation project, achieving an attic
conversion requires you to balance numerous factors,
from budget and objective to space and architectural
limitations. Some of your most-desired features - such as
ample natural light or a full bathroom - may seem out of
reach. They dont have to be, though, if you rely on some
time-tested techniques to maximize the space.
Lighting the natural way
Typically, attics arent built with a lot of windows, and
adding them may be difcult if the ceiling is sloped. Yet
natural light is a highly prized feature in virtually any
room, especially if youre converting your attic into a
bedroom, family room or other public area. Traditional
solutions include adding dormers, which can be costly and
time-consuming. Whats more, windows and dormers can
eat up wall space, which is often at a premium in attics.
Skylights or roof windows can be a better option in an
attic space. They require less time and cost to install than
dormers and can easily live on slanted ceilings. Choose
Energy Star-qualied no-leak, solar-powered fresh-air
skylights like those from VELUX America utilized in
the OMore College of Design Alumni House, add solar-
powered blinds, and you can achieve a light-lled attic
room that is both beautiful and energy efcient. The
cost of the products, including installation, are eligible
for a 30-percent federal tax credit. And from now until
August 15, theres also a $200 cash rebate from VELUX
on solar powered skylights. To learn more, visit www.
whyskylights.com.
Roof windows, which are less expensive than dormers,
are another cost-effective attic conversion option. VELUX
offers both a top-hinged model and a double-sash balcony
model that open at the top and bottom to create a roof
balcony that admits much more light than a dormer while
offering access to the outdoors. Roof windows offer
maximum ventilation plus the added advantage of meeting
building code requirements as points of emergency escape
and egress.
Three success tips for
Converting An Attic
Into Living Space
Balcony roof windows are less expensive than dormers and offer
access to the outdoors while admitting abundant natural light
and fresh air. They meet building code requirements as points
of emergency egress while bringing functionality and decorating
air to an attic space.
7 CADILLAC NEWS REAL ESTATE GUIDE AUGUST 2014
Heating and cooling
Attics are often the hottest or coldest room in the house,
depending on the time of year and the quality of your
homes insulation. Creating a comfortable atmosphere in
a converted attic requires expert planning.
You may need to increase insulation. Because insulation
has such a signicant impact on a homes overall comfort
and energy efciency, it makes sense to invest in the best
you can afford. Spray foam is often a good option for
converted attics because it can go easily between existing
joists and create a tight air barrier without losing the inches
of space required for thick berglass batt insulation.
Youll also need to consider how you will heat and cool
the space. A heating, ventilation and air-conditioning
system expert can help you determine the best approach.
Skylights and roof windows can also play an important
role in your heating and cooling conversion plan due to
the chimney effect they utilize to exhaust rising hot air
from an attic space while providing abundant daylight and
fresh air.
Plumbing made easier
Adding a bathroom anywhere in a home is usually a
good investment. Bathroom additions return about 60
percent of your investment at the time of resale, according
to the Cost vs. Value Report. Creating an attic bathroom
can be simple - if pipes are already present - or challenging
if no plumbing exists in the space.
One alternative to traditional plumbing is up-ush,
which allows you to install sinks, toilets, showers and
even bath tubs without engaging in major construction
to accommodate traditional plumbing pipes. Up-ush
plumbing cost less than traditional plumbing methods and
is easier to t into tight spaces - like the odd nooks that
often occur in attics.
With planning and the right materials, its possible to
convert an attic into a living space that makes your home
even more livable for your family while youre staying in
place. Plus, it will enhance your homes value down the
road when youre ready to move up.
BPT
Skylights with decor-enhancing designer blinds bring much more natural light and fresh air to an attic conversion,
at less expense and with more style, than traditional dormers or windows. Solar powered fresh air skylights and
blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit.

13 CADILLAC NEWS REAL ESTATE GUIDE AUGUST 2014
The housing market is thriving in many parts of the
country, and the driving force is an estimated 92 million Gen
Now consumers between the ages of 19 and 37 (aka Gen
Y or Millennials) that will enter the market to become new
homebuyers by the year 2020. These consumers have grown
up during the introduction of the Internet, social networking,
mobile devices and a huge recession. Not surprising, this
massive group is demanding far different features in their
homes from what their parents and grandparents have
desired in the past, and it may forever change the way homes
are designed and built in the future.
Gen Now is taking a fresh approach to homeownership
by seeking simpler living with smart upgrades, says Carl
Hill, director of marketing at Clayton Homes. They want
modern styles and technologies without feeling like they are
living beyond their means.
Top housing trends among this generation include:
Socialization
Open oor plans are a must. They want spaces to work
together and encourage interaction, not separation. The
kitchen is still viewed as the heart of the home, and it must
be a place where socialization can thrive. Other spaces must
work with the ow of the home, with thoughtful design
used for bedrooms, bathrooms and laundry spaces. Built-in
storage is a must to maximize the utility of space.
Energy effcient design
This generation sees their homes as a reection of their
own values, and because so many of them value green
living, they want a home that complements this lifestyle.
Energy-efcient upgrades are considered a worthwhile
investment, such as upgraded appliances and ENERGY
STAR certication.
Tech-friendly features
The modern homebuyer wants a home that is connected
seamlessly with their smart devices, and that means
incorporating plenty of tech-friendly gadgets and wireless
features into the home design. Electronic drop zones next to
entranceways, device recharging stations in work areas and
family rooms, and plenty of home-automation upgrades in
the kitchen and entertainment spaces are what Gen Y wants
in a home today.
Adaptable spaces
Modern homebuyers have a keen eye for use of space and
how they will need to use these areas, which is why they
want homes that ex to meet their changing needs. Rooms
created for transitional use might include a exible game/
entertainment room, or an ofce that can easily be morphed
into a nursery in the future.
Modern design
A savvy group when it comes to their design preferences,
this generation may take a simpler approach to living, but
they want their spaces to be full of style and functionality.
They love integrating bright color, thoughtful design and
rich texture throughout interiors. They want a home that is
a reection of their own personal style - something more
unique than the cookie-cutter home designs they associate
with their parents generation. They want a mindful and
organized approach to customization to craft a house they
can call a home for many years to come.
BPT
Modern home-design trends are set
to revolutionize the housing market

GREAT DOWNTOWN LOCATION
15 CADILLAC NEWS REAL ESTATE GUIDE AUGUST 2014
If this years summer vacation
plans involve more hardware than
beachwear, dont fret. Just apply
tried-and-true trip-planning
principles to your staycation
renovation plans and you can
ensure both your time and money
are well spent.
Set a budget
You would rarely take a
vacation without setting a limit
on the amount of money you can
spend. That budget affects your
destination and hotel choices,
length of stay and more.
The same principle goes
for your home improvement
vacation. Set a budget for tools,
supplies and new purchases
as you decide whether youre
investing in big renovations, like installing new cabinets,
or small touches, like a new area rug. Be sure to consider
small, added perks as youre building your budget. For
instance, you likely wont want to cook in the midst of
a kitchen remodel, so dont forget to include money in
your budget for restaurant meals or take-out.
Splurge a little
Every vacation needs a guilt-free splurge item. If your
time off will be spent working on your home, youll
thank yourself later for selecting a high quality paint.
Choose a premium paint, like Accolade Interior Paint +
Primer from Pratt & Lambert. Not only will your home
look beautiful, but because higher quality paint goes on
smoother and often in fewer coats, youll save yourself
time and avoid frustration during the application process.
Plus, a superior paint will last longer, look new for years
and be easier to maintain, so you can sit back and relax
when your next vacation rolls around.
Plan ahead
You would never begin preparing for a trip the day you
leave. In order to make the best
use of your time, the same level
of planning should be considered
when using time off for home
improvement projects.
Youll want to determine the
projects youd like to complete
several weeks before your
staycation begins. Start by creating
a prioritized list so you focus time
on the tasks that matter most to
you, whether that is painting the
kitchen, installing a new vanity in
the bathroom or reorganizing the
garage. Then, just as you wouldnt
shop for ip ops and bathing
suits on your way to the beach,
dont shop for brushes, rollers,
spackle and caulk on the day you
want to start your projects.
Be sure to select paint colors ahead of time. Pick up
color chips at your local hardware store or paint retailer
or bring home tinted samples to try out and come to a
color conclusion before your time off begins.
Eye your itinerary
You may not need to compile a minute-by-minute
breakdown of your days activities, but its a good idea to
develop an itinerary of to-dos and project milestones to
accomplish each day.
Scheduling a no work day mid-week can help you
maintain your sanity. Use this day to sit outside, go see
a movie or do just about anything other than work on
your home. Its a nice break and prompts you to unwind
and de-stress. Finally, end the week with a celebration to
appreciate all youve accomplished.
Even though there is much to be done on a home
improvement holiday, there are ways to be sure you
enjoy that time. Approach the time off like any other
vacation - with some planning, patience and prudent
expectations - and youre well on your way.
