8 Tips for Buying a Home for Retirement




8 Tips for Buying a Home for Retirement

 

There usually comes a time in a person's life when the hustle and bustle becomes less appealing, and one looks for a peaceful setting to live out their later years. When that time comes, a retirement home may feel like the ultimate blessing.
Related: 6 Perks of Rental Properties for Retirement Income
People living out their golden years deserve a forever home where they can spend their time the way they want. Plus, having a retirement home for oneself means you're the boss of everything. That degree of control over one's own decisions in life is important for many of us. Here are some tips for purchasing a retirement property:

1. A Location That Sustains Your Needs

As with all real estate purchases, location plays a critical role in deciding to buy a property for retirement. There are factors to consider like the climate/weather, availability of utilities and conveniences such as healthcare, shopping and entertainment venues.

2. Go for a Single-Story

If you need anything in your house, you don't need to climb any stairs to get to it. Avoiding the stairs and staying away from activities that ask you to shift up and down can prove to be quite beneficial in the long run. A 2018 NAHB survey revealed that 80 percent of baby boomers prefer one-story homes.

3. Showers vs. Bathtubs

You should consider a walk-in shower or a familiar type of bath style rather than traditional bathtubs or Jacuzzis. Having a bathtub/shower combo is much more preferable, as they allow an easy point of entry. Bathtubs can prove to be difficult to get in and out of as one gets older.

4. Bigger Hallways and Entryways

Tight hallways have never done anyone any favors. Look for a space that provides you with hallways and entryways that you can spread your arms in without butting into things or knocking items over unintentionally. According to Houzz.com, a generous measurement for hallways should have a height of more than 9 feet and width of 54 - 72 inches.

5. Space for Your Partner

Room for a significant other is what can make your house complete and transform it into a home. Regardless of age, people always seek out companionship. Space for a significant other in your retirement home should not be overlooked. Make sure there's room for two so that you and your other half can stay close to each other.

6. Remember Your Pets

Pets are the emotional sustenance we all need in our lives. Many simply cannot survive without their pets; such is the bond between them. Even with their non-spoken relationship, there is so much more they add to our existence.
A retirement home without your pet would surely feel empty. Plus, who in this world would even wish to part with a dear friend just because their new home wasn't big enough to let them stay.

7. Take Mobility Into Consideration

Retirement doesn't mean isolation from society. There are still going to be a lot of dinner parties and other events that you'll likely want to attend. Theater, music, fine art and a range of activities await you, which is why many look into retirement homes that offer an easy commute to the city you intend to visit. Whether it's private or public transport, mobility should always be considered.

8. Home Security

Even if theft isn't a concern, home security is also used to safeguard you against mishaps. There are services available that can send help within a couple of minutes by simply pressing a button.
There are many things to consider when buying a retirement home. Take your time and discuss it at length with your partner, because only you two should decide where and when to buy a retirement home.

Looking for a new Utah hike?



Looking for a new Utah hike? Try Grandstaff Canyon



Written By Cara MacDonald

 


 















MOAB — A lush oasis tucked neatly between soaring red-rock cliffs, Grandstaff Canyon trail is a timeless classic located near Moab, which is 
doable for the whole family.This trail is around 4.3 miles out-and-back, according to All Trails. The hike is rated as moderate, primarily due to some cliffy portions and technical trail toward the end of the hike. A popular hike, Grandstaff trail may be used for anything from hiking to birdwatching.


How to get there

Begin this hike at the Grandstaff Canyon Trailhead, which is located along the Colorado River.
To get there from Moab, drive along U.S. Highway 191 toward I-70 for about 2 ½ miles, where you will turn right onto UT-128. The turn is hard to miss because it is just before crossing the Colorado River. You will soon see Grandstaff Canyon Trailhead off to your right about 3 miles up UT-128. Park in the small parking lot and begin your hike from there.
 

The hike

This out-and-back hike features only 387 feet of elevation gain, making it doable for even inexperienced hikers, according to All Trails. Despite the gentle incline, though, there are many different kinds of terrain a hiker may encounter on this hike, ranging from sand to mud and loose rocks, and thus appropriate footwear and caution are encouraged.
The trail, particularly toward the base of the canyon, is indistinct in places and you might find yourself on one of several routes up. For the most part, all the trails will lead to the same place, but to ensure you stay on track try to stick to the most well-established paths.
About 1 ½ miles in, the trail will begin to curve right with the canyon and you will ascend onto a more exposed part of the trail. Follow the path until you reach Morning Glory Natural Bridge at the top.
Though the arch is not nearly as impressive as other arches in the Moab area, standing below with the cliff soaring 75 feet above is quite awe-inspiring. While there, you might encounter canyoneering groups rappelling down from the top of the large arch.
Please note that this hike is peppered with poison-ivy, so before hiking make sure you are aware of what poison ivy looks like and avoid coming into contact with the plant. Also note that in spring, fall, and winter temperatures on this hike are very pleasant, but it can be extremely hot and dry in the summer. Bring plenty of water (at least one quart) and perhaps a bathing suit so you can stop to swim in the creek as you ascend the canyon.
Despite the heat, this hike is pleasant and beautiful. This timeless Moab classic is a must-do for any visitor to the Arches and Canyonlands area.

4 Summer Home Tasks To Add to Your To-Do List



4 Summer Home Tasks You May Have Forgotten to Add to Your To-Do List



 
 

Although many associate cleaning with springtime, summer cleaning tasks deserve their time in the sun as well. With warmer temperatures and longer days ahead, there’s no better time to open the windows, throw on the rubber gloves and get to work. Deep cleaning your home and getting rid of dirt and dust is important, but don’t forget to take care of heavy-duty home maintenance tasks as well.

Seasonal home maintenance is crucial to keeping your property in good shape and avoiding things like moisture damage that may have occurred during the winter months. As you cross items off your summer maintenance checklist this year, be sure to add these key tasks that may not have crossed your mind:

Pull a Sherlock Holmes

There's more to fostering a great environment in your home than simply finding the right style of decor. Taking the time to perform annual inspections of your home can save you time and money, and avoid safety issues down the road. Put on your best detective hat and start inspecting all those little clues that may have cropped up around your home over the course of the year. While you’re already moving throughout your house to clean it, check out a few other areas that may have been neglected.
Take this as an opportunity to make sure all of your safety devices (smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, etc.) are in good working order. Check for mold or moisture buildup that may have occurred as a result of winter and spring interior humidity—pay close attention to attics and basements. Quickly examining all your appliances, plus their correlating hoses and/or electrical wires, will ensure your safety and extend the life of your appliances. Walk around the exterior of your house to check for hazards like loose railings, debris, cracks and holes in the foundation, as well as roof issues. Nothing can ruin a summer day like a hazardous situation.

Check Your Exterior

Power washing is a relatively easy and inexpensive way to give the exterior of your home a quick refresh. Blast off any residual grime that may have built up during those spring showers. However, be sure to do this before the very hot months make extraneous water use irresponsible. Keep an eye out for any chips or cracks in the exterior paint—exposed wood and siding can be subject to rot, so protect areas with a fresh coat of paint, if needed.
Rain and snow can lead to branches, leaves and other debris clogging foundation vents, gutters and downspouts. Clogs and leaks in your gutter system can lead to expensive damage to the roof or even the interior of your home. Check your gutters and downspouts for any accumulated gunk that might cause an issue—you'll want to make sure they're prepared to drain properly for those spring showers. If you do come across a clog in your gutters, try removing the debris or using a garden hose to force out any built-up material. If the debris proves to be too difficult to remove on your own, consider hiring a professional.

Spruce Up Your Outdoor Living Spaces

Spring isn't the only season known for its beautiful blooms, so tackle those annual landscaping tasks to boost your curb appeal. Summer landscaping can include planting drought-resistant plants, covering gardens with mulch to protect roots from the hot sun and picking out summer-ready flowers like sunflowers and lavender. Make sure branches and shrubs are trimmed away from your roofing and siding to prevent moisture damage and provide pest control.
Mowing and weeding your grass now will help you stay on top of any sudden growth that takes place when the weather warms up. Planting annual perennials, which love the summer heat, is a low maintenance way to give a dash of color to your yard and increase your property's curb appeal as you begin to enjoy the outdoors more and more.

Bring In the Big Guns for Your HVAC

Your home's heating and cooling system should be inspected, serviced and cleaned at least once a year, and it makes sense to do so when the temperatures will be changing drastically. While you may be tempted to, once again, don your detective hat, this is a good time to call in the professionals for an annual once over. Your heating system likely worked hard all winter, and as you switch to your cooling system, regular maintenance can extend the life of your furnace and postpone expensive replacements.
Change the air filters regularly to prevent major HVAC issues. If your home has foundation vents, be sure to clean them by hand or with a shop vacuum. Foundation vents usually have screens that become a catch-all for leaves, twigs and assorted debris.
A sense of satisfaction and accomplishment is often part of why we're driven to tend to seasonal cleaning in the first place. Taking it the extra mile by adding a few essential items to your checklist can help protect your home and prevent unnecessary damage. Sticking to routine maintenance will protect your investment and allow you to enjoy the space you've worked so hard to build. Maintenance, cleaning, servicing and landscaping guarantees that your house is in good shape and protected for years to come!
