January is National Radon Action Month! You can’t see, smell or taste radon, but it could be present at a dangerous level in your home. Exposure to radon is a preventable health risk and testing radon levels in your home can help prevent unnecessary exposure.

Radon is a radioactive gas that occurs naturally in the environment and can cause

serious adverse health effects in those who are exposed to

it. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

has declared January as National Radon Action Month. This is an effort to raise radon awareness in both home

and business owners. Radon in the leading cause of lung cancer deaths among non-smokers in America and

claims the lives of about 21,000 Americans each year. In fact, the EPA and the U.S. Surgeon General urge all

Americans to protect their health by testing their homes, schools and other buildings for radon.

Here are some things you can do to minimize or even eliminate your risk during National Radon Action Month:

1. TEST Your Home. The EPA and the U.S. Surgeon General recommend that all homes in the U.S. be tested for radon. Testing is easy and inexpensive. Contact your local home inspector/203k consultant for a radon test.

2. ATTEND a National Radon Action Month Event in your area. Look for radon events in your local communities.

3. SPREAD the Word. Talk to your family and friends about the health risk of radon and encourage them to get their homes tested.

Ask the consultant…Question: Hello and Happy New Year! We’re looking for a home to buy but at this time of year, a lot of foreclosed homes have some damage due to being abandoned during the winter months. Is there anything the 203k loan can do to help us get the house we want when there is no seller to do repairs?

~Sarah H, in Chicago, ILAnswer:

Hello Sarah! Thanks for your question! Finding a foreclosed

home with weather damage – frozen pipes, water lines on paneling and

more – doesn’t have to be the end of the journey! Weather and winter

problems in the home you want to buy can be solved with the FHA 203k

loan. This mortgage loan option can handle

a flooded basement or any desired improvements like a kitchen remodel,

but you may need to focus on the more “needed” renovations that may

happen after a winter with no one living in the home. Imagine a

foreclosed house that doesn’t get the winterizing it needs. Maybe the

electricity was turned off before the pipes could be emptied, and the

water in the pipes froze. That could split it like a banana, and thaw out once the temperatures rise…BAM!

Flooded basement. Other issues could include ice dams in the gutters, a connected hose bib
