Who needs a home appraisal when we have Zillow? You do

Published Fri, 07 Feb 2025 13:00:12 GMT

Like many homeowners, my husband and I often play the “what do you think our home is worth?” game. The question is moot since we’re not selling our house, but we still play. We occasionally check Zillow. He believes in Zillow. I believe it’s wrong.“Zillow doesn’t know what improvements we’ve made,” I tell him. “The landscaping we put in, the new roof, the new air-conditioning system, the hardwood floors, the remodeled kitchen and bathroom.”“No,” he said, “but Zillow assumes we’re maintaining and updating.”This past week we tested our assumptions. We were doing some financial planning. I suggested we get a home appraisal, so we could stop guessing.The day the appraiser came, I was out of town and had to leave the whole matter to DC and the two dogs. (Deduct 10 percent.) Had I been home, I would have had the dogs in play care and the place sparkling. I would have served warm banana bread and hot tea. I would have waxed glowingly about all the home’s amenities. DC pointed o...

Joe Lacob reiterates interest in A’s, but no indication Fisher would sell

Warriors owner Joe Lacob has helped bring the WNBA to the Bay Area, as the league announced Thursday that it has accepted the Warriors’ bid for an expansion team.He would welcome more additions to his sports ownership portfolio, too.If the Oakland A’s were to go up for sale, the Warriors’ owner says he would still be interested in buying the team to keep them in the Bay Area, though A’s owner John Fisher has been firm that he’s not selling in the face of fan discontent.“You have to have someone who wants to sell something to be interested in buying it,” Lacob said at Thursday’s press conference announcing the Golden State expansion franchise, “and John is very interested in being successful. He’s dogged about it, and he’s going to Vegas as far as I understand it, so I don’t want to comment on that because, as a person, I hope he’s successful. I don’t want to get in his way and say anything.”Related ArticlesOakland Ath...

Why Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas can’t ‘meaningfully’ share custody of their kids

Published Fri, 07 Feb 2025 13:00:12 GMT

Joe Jonas may be more amenable these days to forging a civil relationship with Sophie Turner as the estranged couple continue mediation this week, reportedly to decide on a joint custody agreement for their two young daughters.But there is one reason that a 50/50 arrangement isn’t practical for Turner and Jonas, according to a family law expert. The “Game of Thrones” star has made it clear she wants to settle down in her native U.K. and raise their daughters there. Meanwhile, the American singer has proclaimed that the girls, 3 and 1, were born in the United States and thus should be raised here.“There’s no 50/50 custody sharing on different continents,” said Los Angeles-based family law attorney Christopher Melcher, who has handled divorces involving well-off parents who hail from distant time zones.“It’s a sad thought, but if Sophie really sees her roots in England and wants to live there, and Joe is going to live in the U.S., they c...

Big Ten COO talks football scheduling strategy, Friday games, 7:30 p.m. kickoffs, placement of non-conference games and more

Published Fri, 07 Feb 2025 13:00:12 GMT

The Big Ten is open to playing non-conference games in November as it moves into the expansion era, with the conference growing to 18 schools next year and the College Football Playoff to 12 teams.“It’s a conversation we’re open to,” chief operating officer Kerry Kenny told the Hotline on Thursday following the release of the Big Ten’s conference schedule rotation for a five-year period.“We haven’t had any in-depth discussions, but we want to be thoughtful.”Reconfiguring the Big Ten schedule to accommodate a non-conference game in November would be a deeply complicated process that could take years to implement because of non-conference matchups under contract for the opening weeks of future seasons.Before the conference office begins modeling scenarios, the Big Ten schools and media partners would need to show enough interest to justify the process.To this point, Kenny said, the focus has been on determining the multi-year schedule rotation once the four West Coast schools join the...
