Estate
By DAVID SYKES
m
REALTOR
WHEN PARENTS HELP
Some first-time buyers (ac
tually 20 percent) are fortunate
enough to buy their first homes
with help from their parents. In
these cases, parents typically
provide half the down payment
for would-be homeowners who
otherwise would not have sav
ings and incomes large enough
to qualify for a mortgage.
Parents tend to m ake a
gift rather than a loan in such
cases because too much debt
can count against prospective
borrowers when qualifying for
a loan. As long as the buyers
ante up a fourth of the down
payment, lenders don’t care
if family generosity makes up
the difference. However, they
WILL ask for a gift letter, a
simple document acknowledg
ing that parents do not expect
repayment.
On the other hand, if there
is an actual LOAN being made
from parent to child, it should
be secured with the same sort
of paperwork that a bank would
use. That way, the interest re
paid will be fully deductible as
a home acquisition loan.

OWC Public Rules hearing to be held at OSU Mor
row County Extension Office via PolyCom
On May 6, 2008,
the Oregon Wheat Industry
Task Force (TF) presented
their long awaited findings
to a jo in t m eeting o f the
OWGL and OWC. The driv
ing force for the creation of
the Task Force was the need
for our industry to respond
to the scheduled sunset of
our enabling legislation.
The Task Force rec
ommended these changes
for co nsideration by the
wheat growers o f Oregon:
-Coordination o f In
dustry Entities - common
management, common loca
tion and joint meetings when
appropriate and beneficial.
-Governance - Two
additional commissioners be
appointed from industries
related to wheat produc
tion.
-Inclusion of Oregon
Grains Commission - Invite
OGC to be a partner with
OWGL and OWC.
-Funding - Base the
grower assessment on the
value o f gross sales rather
than the number o f bush
els.
-Proposed Legisla
tive Language - Provide leg
islature with language that
incorporates the strengths
from current and previous
statutory language, allowing
appropriate oversight while
giving the grain industry the
authorities it needs to direct
and support the industry.
The most time sen
sitive issue am ong these
recommendations was the
need for a better funding
mechanism to support the
paramount needs recognized
long ago by the leaders
within our industry, namely;
m arketing d ev elo p m en t,
production research, and
grower and public educa
tion. Lack o f funding has
forced the OWC to consider
the elimination o f core pro
grams and prevented con
sideration o f new innovative
proposals.
Over the years infla
tion has forced the OWC
to seek authority from the
wheat producers to increase
the original $.005/bu. as
sessment three times; $.01/
bu. thru 1980, $.02/bu. thru
1991, and $.03/bu. to pres
ent. The current period rep
resents an eighteen year pe
riod in which producers have
placed many wheat acres in
CRP or have switched to
more financially productive
crops.
P r o d u c ti o n a n d
assessm ent receipts have
plummeted as production
costs have risen during this
eighteen year period, as
every wheat grower knows.
If your wheat organizations
are to be effective, we need
to increase our investment
in the core areas o f our in
dustry, market development,
production research, and
grower and public educa
tion.
These factors drove
the Task Force recommen
dation for an assessm ent
change to a percent o f net
receipts. The OWC in con
sultation with the OWGL,
voted to proceed with a 3A of
1% of final settlement levy.
The OWC also voted to al
low full grower assessment
refunds to demonstrate ac
countability and to encour
age grower input on OWC
programs.
The Oregon Wheat
Commission members want
grower input on these pro
posed changes. This is your
opportunity to be heard.
The Public R ules
H earing w ill be held at
the Gilliam County Grain
Quality Lab on June 30 at 9
a.m. Video conferencing via
Polycom will be available at
Morrow County Extension
Service, 54173 Hwy 74 in
Heppner. Watch for future
announcements or contact
the OWGL or OWC offices
for details. Copies o f the
Task Force recom m enda
tions, proposed adm inis
trative rules and proposed
leg islativ e language are
available at both the OWGL
and OWC offices.
