Ken is one of the best mortgage guys in the area... We have worked together with several clients, and he makes the right things happen... the way they are supposed to happen. Having the ability to use a down payment gift from a friend or family member is wonderful. In today's real estate an

If you are suffering financial hardship, PLEASE make sure that you have your money in a different institution than ANY loans you might be behind on. While I would say that the best policy is to pay all of the bills, if you are having a hardship, having a few hundred or thousand slip out of your

Image by TeeMack Productions via Flickr I’m surprised I didn’t get to this one sooner… I have been a fan of surf music since I was a kid… I love the guitar riff and the drums. And, as a car guy, there are a LOT of great car songs from surf bands. So, if only for the cool music, it is time to
