Real Estate Licensing Bill

Welcome To North Carolina Real Estate Commission News Update Effective April 1, 2006 Gov. Easley Signs Historic Real Estate Licensing Bill On September 14, Governor Easley signed legislation making the most significant changes ever in the Real Estate License Law. Soon, salesperson licenses will be converted to (provisional) broker licenses, license applicants will be required to complete more real estate education, and persons wishing to become brokers-in-charge of real estate offices must have additional training and real estate experience. At its September meeting, the Real Estate Commission recognized the following persons and organizations who were instrumental in the passage of the legislation: • Representative Julia Howard who, with Representatives William Culpepper and Harold Brubaker, sponsored the legislation and who advocated for it on the House Floor and in committee; • Senate Majority Leader Tony Rand who sponsored a companion bill and spoke for the legislation on the Senate Floor; • North Carolina Association of REALTORS® which used its considerable resources to promote the legislation; and the Commission’s 2004 Broker-in-Charge Advisory Committee which conceived and recommended the legislation to the Commission. Commission Chairman Rick Watts concluded the proceedings by remarking that, as a result of this important legislation, “Real estate consumers will soon be served by more knowledgeable agents, and North Carolina’s real estate licensing program will be restructured to meet the needs and demands of the 21st century marketplace.” For more information about the changes in the North Carolina Real Estate License Law, please click on the following links: Summary of Changes to Real Estate License Law and Frequently Asked Questions Proposed Commission rules effective April 1, 2006 New Publications Two new publications from the Real Estate Commission are now available.

Preserving Texas's Cultural Heritage Turning Brownfields Green Private Landowners Wildlife/Agricultural Tax Exemption Nov. 24, 2003 Texas Land Trusts Top 1-Million Mark in Acres Conserved AUSTIN, Texas -- Private landowners working with Texas land trusts have now conserved more than 1,307,681 acres of land, according to new statistics from the Texas Land Trust Council. The new acreage total sets another record, an increase from last year’s record total of 995,122 acres, a figure roughly comparable to the size of the entire Texas State Parks system. There are 39 land trusts in Texas. Some are national organizations with active Texas chapters, such as The Nature Conservancy and the Trust for Public Land. But most are regional groups unique to Texas, such as the Katy Prairie Conservancy and the Valley Land Fund. “Land trusts have sometimes been behind-the-scenes players, working quietly but effectively to protect open space and wildlife habitat,” said Robert L. Cook, TPWD executive director. “But today the visibility and conservation role of land trusts in our state is growing. These organizations are increasingly important to private landowners who are looking for help to address our biggest threat to wildlife, which is loss of habitat.” According to the Natural Resource Conservation Service’s 1997 National Resources Inventory, Texas led the nation during the 1990s in converting rural prairies, forests and coastline into shopping centers and houses, farms and factories. Texas loses about 283 square miles of rural open space to development each year. Land trusts join ranchers and other landowners together to combat these threats, and they represent the fastest growing conservation movement today, according to Carolyn Vogel, who works with the Texas Land Trust Council at the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. “With Texans searching for ways to address conservation at the local level, the number of land trusts has multiplied with 22 new land trusts established in Texas in the past 12 years,” she said. The Protected Lands Inventory Survey asked Texas land trust members about acres conserved in their operating area, conservation methods used, and conservation purposes such as providing wildlife habitat or protecting water quality. Lands conserved include cactus-studded deserts, mile-high mountains, sunny coasts and dense forests. “Today Texas has close to 21 million people,” said John Hamilton, Texas Land Trust Council board president. “In 25 years, the population is expected to grow by 50 percent to more than 30 million people. Our open spaces are under tremendous stress that is only going to multiply.” For a directory of Texas land trusts, plus information about tools such as conservation easements and links to other resources, see the Texas Land Trust Council Web pages ( http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/landwater/land/private/tltc/ ).

Sell House

Boston.com / Real estate Buying Renting Recent sales Place an ad Luxury Living Community data Financing Commercial Moving Guides SELLING YOUR HOUSE CLEAR THE CLUTTER • Recognize that many buyers resist purchasing a jam-packed home. CLUTTER EPIDEMIC Are you another victim of the "national clutter epidemic?" These six suggestions could help you slim down. Crowded rooms seem smaller than they are. Home buyers rarely determine the size of rooms with a measuring tape. Most do it mentally. • Purge your place of personal elements. House hunters are almost universally put off by any home so crowded with personal belongings that they can't picture themselves having enough space to live there. • Visualize yourself about to move out. You are about to sell your home, so start packing those things. Don't just put them in a drawer. • Eliminate bad odors. Buyers want fresh aromas. Bad smells can ruin the best-laid sale strategies. • Realize that any sort of large collection can crowd your home. • Don't seek to conceal anything weird. Remove it. THE POWER OF FIRST IMPRESSIONS • Gather intelligence before you put your house up for sale. Step back and play stranger. Take a trip along your street to see whether other properties look more fetching and why. • Recognize the increasing importance of an attractive frontal view. Many real estate specialist now urge sellers to concentrate more of their potential presale spending on outdoor improvements, including painting and landscaping. Part of this has to do with the ever-more-common practice among buyers of sizing up a home on the outside before going in. • Don't hide the merchandise. Remove any overgrown greenery that may shroud your house from view. • Remember that a color picture is worth more than 1,000 words. Your home may seem stately and grand without the benefit of any colorful floral touches. Yet for a modest sum, you can add flower beds that will beckon prospects to your property whether they see it on the Internet or while driving by. SPENDING A LITTLE CAN PAY OFF BIG • Small improvements can help you to sell your home faster. They can even command a higher selling price, and also help reduce the tax you'll have to pay on the profit from the sale of your home. • Disabuse yourself of the view that most buyers have cash to spare. Most buyers don't have the money to move in and do upgrades right away. "If people can go into a property and think that they don't have to do anything to it to move in, they are willing to spend more money," said Maio. "But where they go in and think they will have to paint, or sand the floors, or do any kind of major cleanup, that means extra money they have to spend." • Remember that condition can be nearly as important as location.
