The festivities kicked off with a parade starting at the riverfront and leading onlookers towards the Ap- pleshed. Santa Claus even made an ap- pearance for the parade and visited the Clarksville Antique Center which now displays the hundreds of Christmas decorations that made up Santa Land formerly located next to Clarksville City Hall. For anyone in- terested in owningsome of the holi- day décor, everything displayed is currently priced and available for sale. As in previous years, the Ap- pleshed housed various vendors along with the Raintree Arts Coun- cil’s 46th annual Art Exhibit & Judged Competition. Artists from grade school to Professional levels exhibited their skills and amazing artwork. This year local artist and educa- tor, Cindy Logan took Best of Show with her collection of portraits titled, “Some Faces I’ve Taught”. 2020 Applefest Queen, Malia Harrison of Louisiana and Junior Queen, Alannah Tapley of Elsberry helped MC and judge the baby show alongside organizer, Alyx Catan- zaro. Visitors were able to tour the Clarksville Library and browse the book sale or brush up on their chess skills with David Henderson. Others took the opportunity to grab some fried chicken or fish meals served by the American Legion Post 349 or barbequeby the riverfront from the VFW post 4610. Spirits were high inside the newly floored Appleshed as family and old friends greeted each other, but some vendors noted the crowds were un- surprisingly smaller this year. The 2020 Applefest was one of the few fall festivals being held in the area afterconcerns with the pandemic forced many others to postpone or cancel. Festivals such as the Applefest are a much needed breath of air for both Clarksville trying to recover from the economic strain brought on by COVID-19 and residents looking for a fun, family event.

Trib photo by Brice Chandler To Be Continued Next Week Changes To Louisiana PD Drawing Concern The City of Louisiana is facing backlash after a decision to demote recent sheriff’s candidate officer Corey Anderson. After the scheduled Sept. 28 reg- ular meeting, the council went into closed session. The next day, Louisiana officer Josh Langley an- nounced his resignation to take em- ployment elsewhere. Only a day after learning the city would lose one officer, residents dis- covered that Sergeant Anderson had been demoted. The move caused an uproar amongst Anderson’s supporters, friends, and family, many question- ing the reasoning behind the move. That question has yet to be an- swered. According to social media posts made by Anderson and family, they don’t know the reasoning behind the demotion. Anderson’s social media post along with his family’s created a buzz drawing hundreds of reac- tions and comments. When asked for comments, Louisiana Mayor Marvin Brown would not discuss specifics about personnel issues. “I recommended a change in the Department's second in command that I felt was in the best interest of the city and the ma- jority of Council members agreed- with me.” A group of residents has organ- ized a protest to show support for the Louisiana officer. The protest takes place after the press deadline on Monday, and so far, 53 people have said they plan to attend the rally out- side of Louisiana’s City Hall with more possible. “I appreciate the support, but I wish they would show it in a more productive way,” Anderson told the Tribune. “I was proud to have those stripes but when people have a per- sonal agenda, it shows.” After taking the news of his de- motion to Facebook, several people commented that they had called their representatives and the mayor’s of- fice to voice their concerns. But not everyone was eager to protest the decision. Other com- menters wanted more information and the reasoning behind it. “You should never protest blindly,” One commenter posted on the event’s Facebook page. “I'm all for Corey but would like to know the facts first…” “What's going on?” Another stated. “Maybe he needs his badge stripped? I can’t back a cause I know nothing about.” Those questions will remain unanswered for the time being. Although the department has been short-handed for several years and facing budget woes, it will still have the same amount of officers working. One of the department's part-time officers is expected to fill Officer Langley’s spot. NECAC To Use Results Of Survey In Developing Programs Adequate housing, a lack of liv- ing wage jobs and the need for better nutritional opportunities. Those were the top three findings from a survey by the North East Community Action Corporation. The Community Needs Assess- ment is a tri-annual study of social service, community health and pub- lic housing needs in Lewis, Lincoln, Macon,Marion, Monroe, Mont- gomery, Pike, Ralls, Randolph, St. Charles, Shelby and Warren coun- ties. It provides NECAC with a compass in determining the devel- opment of new programs and serv- ices, and is a requirement of the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) administeredby the Mis- souri Department of Social Services. Earlier this year, questionnaires were sent to NECAC clients, com- munity groups, faith-based organi- zations, private businesses, schools, health care agencies, political office- holdersand others. There were 52 questions covering a variety of top- ics, such as housing, health, trans- portation, employment and education. The results reflect a wide range of opinions and suggestions. The 814-page report was completed after months of preparation. “The Community Needs Assess- ment is a valuable tool for us to use in assisting people in our 12 coun- ties,” said NECAC County Services Programs Director Linda Fritz. “The datawill greatly aid NECAC in for- mulating programs to help address community needs.” NECAC continues to address housing needs with programs such as the Aspire Partnership. The agency and its partners, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department and the Carpenters Union District Coun- cil of Greater St. Louis, will build one-bedroom homes that will sell for around $37,000 in Missouri, Illi- nois and Iowa.

the City of O’Fallon for receiv-ing a donation of 54 acres totheir parks and recreation de-partment. You may wonderwhy I even mention such butit’s because situations like theseare few and far between butdoes show that such situationsdo occur. There are so manyneeds of cities in rural Americaespecially, but finances simplydon’t allow for the “extras” thatmake communities family-friendly and special. For in-stance, beautiful “Welcome toBowling Green” lighted signson Highway 61 from both di-rections would add so much toour city’s image but the hun-dred’s on dollars simply aren’tthere for such. As the state’smandates for water, sewer,roads, lighting, safety, utilizes,etc. increase, so does the smalltown expenses in rural areas es-calate. I would like to remind you
that my office door is alwaysopen for you to come and shareyour concerns, observations,ideas, and even complaints.Also, we have lost many dearfriends and family members ofBowling Green these past cou-ple of months; people that con-tributed in small and great waysto our community over theyears. Please keep these fami-lies and friends in your goodthoughts and prayers.

MDC Reports Hemorrhagic Disease In MO DeerThe Missouri Department of
Conservation (MDC) reports lowlevels of hemorrhagic disease (HD)in deer around the state. HD is a nat-urally occurring virus that infectsdeer through the bite of a nativemidge fly. It is common in Missouribetween July and October when theinsect that spreads it is most active.Hemorrhagic disease in deer has
been recently confirmed through di-agnostic testing in Boone, Camden,Cole, Jackson, Linn, and Osagecounties. MDC has received at least100 reports of additional suspectedcases from locations throughout thestate. “Hemorrhagic disease has been
recognized in Missouri for manydecades,” explained MDC WildlifeHealth Program Supervisor JasmineBatten. “We get reports of suspectedcases every year and ask the publicto report suspected cases of HD totheir local MDC office or to emailinformation [email protected].”Batten added that hemorrhagic
disease can have severe impacts onlocalized deer numbers during someyears with high infection rates, but
transmission of the disease ends inthe fall when heavy frost kills themidge flies. Deer populations areable to recover between outbreaks.Hemorrhagic disease can be fatal
to infected deer, but some deer sur-vive and develop immunity.“Clinical signs of hemorrhagic
disease in deer vary but may includean unwillingness to move; difficultybreathing; and swelling of the head,neck, or tongue,” Batten explained.“Hemorrhagic disease can cause ahigh fever, prompting infected deerto seek out water sources. Deer thatare sick may appear dazed, lethargic,and nonresponsive to the approachof people. Deer that die from hem-orrhagic disease usually do so in amatter of days and are often founddead in or near water with no out-ward signs of illness.”She added that HD is not directly
contagious between infected deerand it is not known to infect people.Learn more about hemorrhagic
disease athuntfish.mdc.mo.gov/hunting-trap-ping/wildlife-diseases/hemorrhagic-disease. Report suspected cases ofhemorrhagic disease to local MDC
offices or email information [email protected].
HD verses CWDBatten noted that chronic wasting
disease (CWD) is another diseasefound in Missouri deer that canshow signs and symptoms similar tohemorrhagic disease (HD). MDCnoted the following comparisons: • HD symptoms include fever, re-
duced activity, and swollen neck,tongue, eyelids. Because sick deerare feverish, they are often foundnear or in water. Sick deer may ap-pear dazed, lethargic, and nonre-sponsive to the approach of people.CWD symptoms include exces-
sive salivation, drooping head/ears,tremors, emaciation, and change inbehavior such as lack of fear of hu-mans and lack of coordination.•HD-infected deer typically show
symptoms within days of being in-fected and those that die do sowithin weeks of being infected.CWD can take more than 18
months for an infected deer to showsymptoms.•HD does not kill all infected
deer. Deer that survive develop an-tibodies for future immunity.CWD kills all infected deer.•HD is caused by a naturally oc-
curring virus spread by midge fliesduring the summer and fall and endswhen cold weather kills the flies.CWD is caused by misshapen
proteins called “prions” and isspread through body fluids.Learn more about CWD at
mdc.mo.gov/cwd. Report suspectedcases of CWD to local MDC officesor email information to [email protected].

CT Calcium ScoringCan Save A Life
Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) isthe leading cause of death in theUnited States, taking lives of morethan 350,000 people each year. Survival from SCA depends on
the quick actions of people nearbywho call 911, start CPR and use anAED to restart the heart. The first sign of coronary artery
disease is calcification — calciumdeposits in plaque on the insidewalls of your arteries.Using a spe-cial imaging technique called high-speed CT, plaque and calcificationlevels are measured, yielding what’scalled a cardiac calcium score. Thehigher the score, the greater the riskof having a cardiac event such as aheart attack.Calcium scoring can be a key tool
to prevent a heart attack. When con-sidered along with other risk factors,it provides valuable guidance abouthow aggressively you should applypreventive measures such as takingcholesterol or blood pressure med-
ication, weight loss or quittingsmoking, for example.Since coronary artery disease
often doesn’t have symptoms until acardiac episode occurs, a cardiaccalcium score can help identifythose individuals who could benefitfrom preventive evaluation andtreatment. A physician’s order is notrequired for this appointment.During a scoring procedure, you
will lie on your back on a CT table,and EKG electrodes will be placedon your chest to monitor your heartrate. The CT table will move in verysmall increments every few secondsand take pictures.

Community NewsFirearms Turkey Hunting To Be Similiar To Recent Seasons
With fall firearms turkey season runningOct. 1-31 and archery turkey season under-way, the Missouri Department of Conserva-tion (MDC) advises turkey hunters it couldbe another challenging season.
According to MDC, turkey production inMissouri steadily increased during the1990s before declining during the 2000s.While production began to increasethroughout much of the state from about2009 to 2014, Missouri has had poor pro-duction over the last several years.
MDC preliminary data from this year’sannual wild turkey brood survey indicateturkey production will likely be on-par withproduction during the last several years. Ac-cording to MDC, the statewide poult-to-henratio (PHR) for this year is projected to beabout 0.9, which is the same as the PHR’sfrom 2018 and 2019.
“Based on the preliminary data, hunterscan expect some regional variation in pro-ductivity this year with the slightly betterhatches occurring in counties along the Mis-souri River in central and east Missouri andthe slightly poorer hatches occurring insouthwest Missouri,” said MDC Turkey Bi-ologist Reina Tyl. “Because overallstatewide turkey production is expected tobe below-average compared to the last 10years, there will likely be fewer young birdson the landscape this year, and hunters aregoing to have to put in more time to be suc-cessful. This will be especially true in areaswhere we have good acorn production,which tends to shift turkeys out of openfields and into the timber and reduces theirmovements.”
Tyl added that weather conditions duringthe nesting season and through much of thebrood-rearing period were favorable acrossmost of the state. Yet, despite favorableweather, this year’s expected low produc-tion isn’t surprising considering the PHRtrend from previous years.
Tyl added that the overall effect ofweather on production is less clear.
“Because weather often varies consid-erably from one year to the next, if weatherwas the primary driver of turkey production,
we would expect productivity to vary con-siderably as well,” she said. “In 2018, favor-able weather conditions during the nestingand brood-rearing seasons suggested thatproduction would improve. In 2019, unfa-vorable conditions during the nesting sea-son suggested that production would bepoor. Despite this great variability in weatherconditions from year to year, production hasbeen consistently low.”
Tyl acknowledges there is still much tobe learned about the factors that affectturkey production, something she and hercolleagues are working on.
“We recently started work on a new proj-ect aimed at determining which factors —weather, habitat, food availability, and pred-ators — have the greatest effect on turkeyproduction. This research will help explainsome of the trends we’re seeing and helpus identify the best way to mitigate negativeeffects on production,” she said.
Fewer Fall HuntersTyl noted that relatively few people hunt
turkeys during the fall season, which resultsin low hunting pressure and little competitionamong hunters. Unlike the spring season,when about 100,000 turkey hunting permitsare purchased in Missouri, typically onlyabout 10,000 hunters purchase fall firearmsturkey permits.
“Although the woods tend to get a bitbusier towards the end of October with thedeer rut approaching, hunting pressure isrelatively light during early-to-mid-October,even on public lands,” said Tyl.
Get details about fall turkey hunting fromMDC’s 2020 Fall Deer and Turkey HuntingRegulations and Information booklet, avail-able where hunting permits are sold or on-line at huntfish.mdc.mo.gov/all-deer-and-turkey-hunting-regulations-and-information.
Buy hunting permits from vendorsaround the state, online atmdc.mo.gov/buypermits or through MDC’sfree MO Hunting mobile app, available fordownload through Google Play for Androiddevices or the App Store for Apple devices.
Poult-to-Hen RatioAs part of the state’s wild turkey brood
survey, MDC staff and volunteers record thenumber of hens and recently hatchedturkeys (poults) they see each summer.These observations are then tallied to de-termine the success of the hatch, which ismost often reported as a poult-to-hen ratio,or simply the average number of poults perhen observed during the survey.
“During the three-month survey, partici-pants typically report sightings of 60,000-80,000 turkeys, which is a testament to thelarge number of dedicated volunteers thattake time to participate in the survey eachyear,” Tyl said. “And we really appreciate thework of the many volunteers!”
To participate in the MDC annual wildturkey brood survey, email MDC’s WildTurkey Management Program at [email protected] with “WildTurkey Brood Survey” as the subject of theemail. Include complete name and mailingaddress.
Submit Turkey FeathersMDC is asking Missouri turkey hunters
to save and share feathers from birds theyharvest this fall as part of a new researchproject to help improve wild turkey manage-ment in Missouri.
MDC will send participating hunters thematerials needed to submit feathers, includ-ing a postage-paid envelope. The materialswill contain instructions about which feath-ers to submit. Participating hunters will alsoneed to include the Telecheck identificationnumber for the harvested bird to help MDCdetermine from which Missouri county itwas taken.
Turkey hunters who want to participatein the MDC research project can get moreinformation and provide their mailing ad-dress at mdc.mo.gov/turkeyfeathers. Theycan also email MDC’s Wild Turkey Manage-ment Program at [email protected]. MDC asks participatinghunters to either retain their turkey carcass,or to remove a wing from the turkey andseveral feathers from the lower portion ofthe breast, until feather submission materi-als arrive.

4-H Goes Online Now ThroughMU Extension 4-H
This fall, Missouri youths ages 5-18and the volunteers and faculty who servethem will have access to projects in 4-HGoes Online through Canvas, an easy-to-use online learning platform. Projects willbe available in these areas: Clover Kids,Shooting Sports, Engineering and Tech-nology, Environmental Science and Natu-ral Resources, Plant and Animal Science,Healthy Living, Leadership and PersonalDevelopment, and Communication andExpressive Art.
The online Canvas option also givesyouths a chance to match with an instruc-tor and other youths throughout the statewho share their interests and passion forprojects, as not all in-person clubs canoffer every project, Corkins said.
“We not only hope to reach new audi-ences but also to improve the experiencefor the families we already serve, makingit a win-win for Missouri 4-H,” said SarahMorefield, field specialist in 4-H youth de-velopment and statewide Canvas man-ager.
The research-based Canvas curricu-lum helps youths learn through onlinevideos, lesson plans for use at home, dis-cussion boards with peers and videocon-ferencing with lead instructors. Newopportunities spanning multiple project
areas will offer new experiences and en-gage a variety of communities. A partner-ship with MU Serves, in whichundergraduate students participate inservice-learning programs, opens new of-ferings, including a Spanish culture andlanguage project.
Families with limited broadband capac-ity won’t be left out, Morefield said. “Weplan to put together project kits and USBdrives that can be mailed to families with-out stable internet so that the time and ef-fort being put into this online course willtruly benefit all of our Missouri 4-H com-munity,” she said.
All registrations go through the 4-H On-line system, but with the option to registeras a member or participant, the course isopen to all.
“The excitement around innovation andthe efforts nationwide to continue our 4-Hprograms during COVID-19 haveprompted many other states to reach outto Missouri 4-H about our 4-H Canvascourse – how they can participate or evencreate their own,” Morefield said.
The new Missouri 4-H program yearruns Oct. 1, 2020, to Sept. 30, 2021. Moreinformation about Canvas project modulesand other 4-H online and in-person pro-gramming and registration are available.

Mike cherished the time that he
spent with his grandchildren, teach-ing them the importance of caringfor animals and taking pride in theirwork. Mike loved being on the farmwith his children and grandchildren,but ultimately spending time as afamily is what gave him the greatestjoy. His friends and family will al-ways celebrate Mike’s joyful out-look on life and his compassion forhelping others. Mike will truly bemissed by all that knew him!Memorials may be made to the

If boots, a warm hat and atuned-up snow blower are theonly items on your winterpreparation list, your homemaintenance plan may need amakeover. These simplehome maintenance projectscan help lower your energybills, prevent more costly re-pairs and/or increase the lifes-pan of your home.
1. Heating & Ventilation -Examine your fireplace andchimney system to ensurethat no soot or creosote hascollected. Any cracks orvoids could potentially causea fire. Before you turn thefurnace or boiler on, replacethe air filter and hire a profes-sional to inspect the unit morethoroughly. These steps willimprove the efficiency andlife of your furnace and willensure stable indoor air qual-ity.
2. Seal Windows andDoors - If not properlysealed, windows and doorscan be a major culprit for heatloss. To keep the warm air in-side, inspect the weather-stripping around your home's
windows and doors for leaks,rot or decay. Repair or re-place structural framing, andcaulk inside and out, if neces-sary.
3. Insulate well - One ofthe easiest and most effectivedefenses against heat loss isproper insulation. Preventcold drafts from entering andthe loss of heated air throughbasement headers, which,when left exposed, can makeyour furnace work harder.Look for a moisture-resistantproduct offering high thermalperformance, such as RoxulComfortbatt insulation. Thistype of mineral wool insula-tion makes installation sim-ple. All that's needed is aserrated blade or bread knife.Cut the batt to fit the cavityand press into place. The in-sulation will help improveenergy efficiency as soon asit's in place and provide sav-ings over the lifetime of yourhome. Comfortbatt can alsobe used to top or replace oldattic insulation. Aim for an R-50 or a depth of 16 inches.
4. Backyard Care - Saveyour property from potential
damage by trimming over-grown trees and shrubs toprevent ice-laden branchesfrom thrashing against elec-trical wires and your home'sexterior. Drain/shut off anyexterior faucets and sprinklersystems to prevent freezing.Ensure rain or snow drainsaway from the house to avoidfoundation problems.
5. Roof and Gutters - In-spect your roof for shinglesthat are warped, damaged oreven missing to prevent a fu-ture leak. Use roofing cementand a caulking gun to sealjoints where water could pen-etrate, such as around thechimney, skylights or ventpipes. Make sure that yourgutters and downspouts aresecurely fastened. Down-spouts should extend at leastfive feet away from the hometo prevent flooding.
When it comes to preven-tative maintenance, a littletime and effort can save thou-sands in energy costs and re-pair bills over the lifetime ofyour home.
Home improvements canadd value and aesthetic ap-peal to a home. However, toreap the rewards of a remod-eled room, home addition orany home improvement proj-ect, homeowners will have toinvest both their money andtheir time. Establishing aproject budget can be helpfuland prevent overspending.According to Visually, a mar-keting information service,nearly half of the homeown-ers surveyed said the cost oftheir renovation projects did
not exceed their budgets.However, more than one-third of those surveyed re-ported going over budget ontheir projects. To keep costsdown, consider hiring a con-tractor. He or she will haveindustry contacts and may beable to get materials at alower cost. While you willpay for labor, working with acontractor greatly reducesboth the time spent on theproject and the risk of costlymistakes being made.
In addition, think about the
way you finance the renova-tions. Industry experts havefound that homeowners whofinance their home improve-ment projects with lines ofcredit end up spending moremoney on average than thosewho use their savings to fundprojects.
While it may be temptingto take out a line of credit fora home improvement project,spending only money you al-ready have may be the moreresponsible route to take.

Home improvement projects range from small scaleundertakings that can be tackled in a single weekendto large remodels that can take several months to com-plete. While no two projects are the same, every homeimprovement project demands that homeowners dipinto their pockets and spend some money.
Much like the scale of projects varies greatly, so, too,do the financial commitments required of homeownersto make those projects a reality. But no matter the sizeof the project, homeowners can find ways to stretchtheir budgets without sacrificing the quality of their im-provements.
* Do your homework. Before you decide to makechanges to your home, it's best to first do some re-search into any potential projects you're considering.Many homeowners have decided to dive into a projectbefore they fully realize its scope and cost, and goingin blind can bust a budget, turning what might haveseemed like a relatively simple project into a money pit.
Understanding just what a project entails and howmuch it's likely to cost can give homeowners an ideaof what they can afford and where they might be ableto stretch their budgets. For example, if you want to re-place your kitchen countertops but can't afford engi-neered quartz countertops, you might be able to find aless expensive alternative, such as tile, that you like justas much. But it's best to research such alternatives be-fore you decide to replace your existing countertops. Ifyou can't find a less expensive alternative, you mightwant to postpone the project until you can grow yourbudget. But starting the project without first grasping itstrue cost is a recipe for disaster, so do your homeworkbefore you find your toolbox and start working.
* Build unforeseen expenses into your budget. An-other way to stay within your budget is to includebudget-busting unforeseen expenses into the budgetfrom the get-go. Whether you're doing the project your-self or paying a contractor, nearly every home improve-ment project will present some unforeseen, and costly,
hurdles. For example, you might find mold inside thewalls when you're converting a basement, and it cancost a pretty penny to make that mold go away. If yougo into the project expecting such hurdles, then the fi-nancial sting of addressing them won't prove too greata burden. But if the mold catches you and your budgetcompletely off guard, you might be forced to overextendthat budget or make sacrifices elsewhere in order tocomplete the project. Build some contingency money,including permit and permit fees, into your home im-provement project to safeguard against such unfore-seen issues.
* Get to work. If you're hiring a contractor, speak tohim or her before signing a contract to see if there isanywhere you can pitch in to keep the labor costs low.You might be able to pitch in during the demolitionphase, saving the cost of paying your contractor's work-ers to tear down walls or remove debris you can just aseasily remove yourself. Another way to pitch in is to dothe end-of-day cleanup yourself. Any role you play withregard to labor will likely need to be negotiated upfront,but you can save yourself a substantial amount ofmoney on labor if you're willing to get your hands dirty.
* Determine if piecemeal is the most affordable op-tion. Sometimes it makes sense to tackle one projectat a time, while other times you might want to combineprojects to save on the cost of materials. For instance,if your ultimate goal is to install wood flooring throughoutyour home, determine if it makes more financial senseto install the flooring all at once rather than doing oneor two rooms at a time. You might save by buying all ofyour materials at once rather than buying a smallamount of materials several times over the next severalyears.
Home improvement projects often go a long way to-ward making a home more enjoyable for its owners andinhabitants. And while such projects can be costly,homeowners who stay disciplined can still get theirdream homes without busting their budgets.
How to stay within your home improvement budget
Homeowners who want to give theirkitchens a brand-new look without the ex-pense or the hassle of a full-scale renovationoften gravitate toward kitchen cabinet refac-ing.
Cabinet refacing is less expensive and moreeco-friendly than a full replacement of exist-ing cabinets, and experts estimate refacingcosts roughly two-thirds less than a completecabinet renovation. Refacing involves replac-ing the doors and drawer fronts of existingcabinets during which the cabinet boxes areveneered to match the wood color chosen forthe refacing, while the structure and layout ofthe cabinets remains unchanged. Essentiallythe kitchen footprint will remain the same asit was before the refinishing took place.
Kitchens are popular rooms in the homeand much of the renovation investment madein the kitchen can be recuperated at resale.Homeowners looking to put their homes upfor sale soon may find cabinet refacing is ben-eficial, as it is a relatively quick renovationthat can reap big rewards.
Homeowners have options when refacingtheir cabinets. While some projects, such asstripping off old paint and repainting, can bea do-it-yourself project, refacing cabinets maybe best left to the professionals. Veneer work,which is often part of cabinet refacing, is nota skill one can learn overnight, and it often re-quires the hand of a professional carpenter.
Many cabinets can be resurfaced success-fully. Older cabinets are prime candidates, asthey often are more sturdy than newer cabi-nets. In general, cabinets can be refaced aslong as their substructures are sound.
In addition to providing a new look for thekitchen, cabinet refacing is an eco-friendlyproject. By not demolishing existing cabi-netry, homeowners are preventing old materi-als from ending up in landfills while saving
trees from being cut down to construct newcabinets. Refacing also reduces the amount ofchemical products used in the building of newcabinets, including stains, adhesives andchemically treated wood.
Homeowners can choose among wood, ve-neer, metal, and even glass doors as replace-ments in the kitchen. Coupling cabinetrefacing with replacement of old appliancescan completely transform the appearance ofthe kitchen in relatively little time. Manyrefacing projects go as follows.
* Measurements are taken and technicaldrawings are made so that new cabinet mate-rials can be manufacturered to the kitchen'sexact specifications.
* Homeowners choose the type of finishthey prefer for the new cabinetry.
* Manufacturing takes place, and home-owners will schedule a time when the workwill commence.
* Existing doors and drawer fronts will beremoved and recycled or disposed of.
* If cabinet frames and boxes need to be re-paired in any way, some refacing companieswill take care of this.
* Cabinet boxes and frames are covered ina matching veneer or plastic laminate.
* The new doors and drawer fronts are in-stalled, as are new handles, pulls and mold-ings to complete the look.
Many companies specialize in cabinetrefacing. Homeowners should request esti-mates from potential candidates and reviewworkmanship prior to hiring a particular com-pany.
Cabinet refacing is often a fast, relativelyinexpensive renovation project. It can im-prove the appearance and functionality of akitchen in a small amount of time, while alsoimproving the value of a home.
The Basics Of Kitchen Cabinet Refacing Painting a home's interior can give it a completelynew look and feel. A fresh coat of paint can make aroom feel more vibrant and up-to-date, creating awhole new attitude within the room without breakingthe bank.
Whether creating an accent wall or painting eachwall within a room, painting is a relatively easy andinexpensive home improvement project. But thatdoesn't mean painting does not require a little prepwork before the project can begin.
* Address any holes or bumps on the wall. Holesor cracks in the wall will need to be patched withspackle, which then must dry before the wall can begiven a new coat of paint. In addition, sand down anybumps until the walls are smooth and free of any un-
sightly abnormalities.* Wash the walls. Walls can get dirty, and that dirt
may or may not be masked by paint. Before adding anew coat of paint, wash the walls and inspect themfor dust. Dust can collect on molding, especially inrooms that get little natural air. When dust has col-lected on the molding and around doorways and trim,use a damp cloth to wipe it away before adding anynew paint.
* Apply primer. Primer can serve many functions,not the least of which is its role as a bonding agentbetween the wall and the top coat of paint. Primer canalso help conceal dark colors, prevent stains and in-crease the life expectancy of the paint job you areabout to undertake.

When should you consider selling “As Is” Are you feeling overwhelmed by a home ren-
ovation or house flipping endeavor? Are youready to just wipe your hands of the project andwalk away? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Manypeople dive into a renovation for various reasonsonly to find themselves unable to finish. So, whenshould you decide to list the house “as is”? Whatdoes “as is” mean anyway? Do you need anagent? Keep reading for some tips and info thatwill help you out.
What does “As Is” mean? If you look around any online marketplace,
you’re bound to see items listed “as is”. In thesecases, the seller is offering the item in its currentcondition with all its flaws. Just as you see it.
This is the same when selling a home “as is”.The buyer is getting exactly what they see; how-ever, there are some important differences in theselling process.
First, you must be honest when answeringquestions about the house’s current condition.
A homeowner who intentionally hides informa-tion or misleads a buyer with false informationcould find themselves in legal trouble.
Second, “as is” must be stated in your contract.This is for your protection as well as the buyer’s.The contract must clearly state in a contract thatthe house is being sold “as is” and the buyer un-derstands.
This sounds complicated, but an attorney canhelp this process move forward. We’ll discuss thisfurther on.
Now that we’ve establish what as is means,let’s explore the reasons why and when youshould consider it.
A financial burden Renovation projects or house flipping ventures
are expensive, and unexpected problems can de-rail the planned budget. In these situations, youmay find yourself paying two mortgages and with-out thefunding to continue. At this point, sellingthe home “as is” becomes a valid option.
“As is” allows you to step away from the projectno matter what point you’re at and list it.
While it might improve chances of selling, youdon’t need to spend more money fixing issues orcleaning up a house that’s dragging you under.
But as mentioned earlier, be prepared to listthings you know are wrong with the house thatstill need addressed. The “as is” tag alreadywarns potential buyers there are issues with theproperty,and they’re going to ask for more infor-mation.
The amount of work still left on the housedoesn’t meant you can’t sell but unfortunately, itwill affect the offers you receive.
Be prepared for low offers. “As is” draws the
attention of flippers, contractors, fixer uppers, andsome first-time buyers looking for a bargain.They’re hoping you’re ready to settle for their first-lowball offer.
Plan how you’ll respond to them by knowingthe lowest amount you’re willing to accept.
What is your bottom line to get out of the proj-ect with your head above water?
You don’t have time to renovate Whether you’ve inherited the house, it’s the
outcome of divorce, or you’ve relocated, a reno-vation project becomes a source of frustrationwhen you don’t have time for it. Building time intoyour schedulebetween work and family life turnsan already difficult task into a major hassle for apotential DIY’er.
Unforeseen problems can also turn up duringthe renovation process and cause more delay foryour timeline. These problems are often com-pounded by the budget, especially if you’re payinga second mortgageon the house. The longer theproject stretches past your original deadline, themore expenses out of pocket.
In some situations, you might need to list thehouse and sell it quickly. Depending on the mar-ket in your area, selling the house “as is” mayprove the quickest route.
Some repairs are beyond your means This reason goes along with budgeting prob-
lems and time constraints, but it’s worth repeating.As stated above, unforeseen problems are some-times discovered while renovating. These issuesmight bewell outside of your budget or skillset.Major cracks in the foundation, mold, or otherstructural problems add thousands to expenses.
When the renovation has become either a fi-nancial burden, difficult to schedule, or beyondyour means selling “as is” becomes a viable op-tion.
If you’ve decided on this option, how do youstart?
Consider finding a local real estate agent Alwaysconsider finding a local real estate
agent when preparing to list your property for sale.It helps if they’re experienced with selling proper-ties “as is” because they’ll know how to properlymarket your house for the flipper or fixer-upperaudience. An agentalso knows the steps to prop-erly sell the house “as is” in your state and all thechannels to get those tasks completed.
For sale by owner If you decide to sell “as is” on your own, the
process is nearly the same as selling any otherhouse except for one vital detail. You must ensureyour contract clearly states the buyers is purchas-ing “as is”.
Consider hiring an attorney Have an attorney with real estate experience
look over your documents and contracts. This isa good idea and helps avoid any legal trouble youmight run into. Many states already require an at-torneycomplete all transactions as an agent be-tween the two parties.
Get a pre-inspection Having a pre-inspection allows you to know
everything wrong with the property and be honestwith potential buyers up front. This will also helpidentify your potential market since some prob-lems willdisqualify certain buyers due to their loanprovider’s requirements.
Once you have the results, be honest with po-tential buyers. This not only helps you avoid anylegal trouble from knowingly hiding discrepancies,but it also builds trust and confidence.
Good Luck Selling a home with an agent is already a chal-
lenging task, especially if you’re attempting to sell“as is”. Despite this challenge, if you remain hon-est, utilize proper marketing, list at a fair price,andstay flexible, your efforts could result in an “as is”sale.
