  To The New Year by Kirsten Uhler   We welcome in a brand new year; it’s time to change our ways. “Out with the old; in with the new” spurs goals for coming days. We hear the vows and pledges made, like “I’ll commit to be More productive, end bad habits, be a better me. I’ll be more patient, thinner, fitter, be a better friend. I’ll have drive and discipline,” at least to the month’s end. Striving to be better, seeking changes and solutions Should be constant—not reserved for “new year’s resolutions.” Cheers to our resiliency, to conquering our fear, To challenges we faced and overcame throughout the year. To living life with passion, I would like to make a toast. Invest in the relationships with those who matter most. Seek out rich experiences, and open up your mind. Don’t count the d...

Are "Green" Home Improvements Worth It? They Might Be...Now Home improvements, when done right, can add value to a home during resale or appraisals. One improvement that has been falling by the wayside, however, is energy efficiency.  There have been many posts on Active Rain that have got me thinking, not just about going green in my diet, but also about homeowners who go green in their homes, only to be disappointed by lower-than-expected appraisals when they're selling or applying for loans. In an article published by Inman.com, "Industry push to raise visibility of home energy efficiency improvements," Ken Harney discussed the launch of a new campaign, “Blueprint to make Energy Efficiency Improvements Visible in the Real Estate Market,” by two research and advocacy groups,  the Nati...

What's a Baby Boomer to Do? With More Debt During Retirement... It's troubling to see that the debt that continues to trouble baby boomers as they enter their retirement is showing no signs of slowing down. In fact, according to an article published in the New York Times, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau estimates that "30% of all homeowners 70 and older have mortgages to pay off. In 2001, just 8% carried mortgage debt into retirement. This is an increase of 22% in just over a decade.  Most of this debt can be attributed to the Recession of 2007-2009. As home values plummeted, homeowners owed more than the value of their home, leaving them exposed to extravagant mortgage payment on a property that wasn't even worth half what they were paying. Presently, even as home values conti...

Financial Planners Embrace Reverse Mortgages After Changes Reverse Mortgages have been often seen as a "last resort." They were, essentially, used by cash poor, house rich retirees, looking for an extra boost of cash flow in order to pay off outstanding debts. With this reputation in mind, I'm sure there were many retirees who never considered a reverse mortgage. They were prepared for their retirement, had planned every stage of it, and the idea of an extra loan was not enticing to them.  The recent changes to the program, however, will be just as important to future consumers as to the reverse mortgage industry. In a nut shell, future borrowers of the reverse mortgage will be financially savvy retirees who want to secure an extra "rainy day" fund or want to have a growing line of cred...

I imagine some of you may have already seen this but it's just so funny (and not to mention, too real!) not to share.      YOUR HOUSE AS SEEN BY :                 I know of some agents who hire another agent to sell their homes. Why? Because though we are realtors for a living, we love our homes. We build memories in them. As cliche as it is, we won't sell it for the world! Bottomline, you are emotionally involved and you need to be professionally represented. Just admit it, even doctors seek second opinion.

Where is the best place to pick a pumpkin in Broward County, is a very common question.   While I feel I need to clarify "pumpkin picking" in South Florida, as it should be interpreted as "picking out a pumpkin placed in piles on grassy fields". Picking pumpkins has nothing to do with picking something that is still growing. South Florida pumpkin patches are made by bring pumpkins grown someplace else to our semi-tropical unfriendly pumpkin growing climate and laying them out in piles with hay for families in tank tops and flip flops to search and gather the perfect carving canvas for their front step. Nonetheless, its fall, and pumpkins need to be picked (out)!   It seems like every family in Broward County heads to Flamingo Road Nursery for a pumpkin. It seems like that because it is ...

HECM to HECM Refinance With a Non-Borrowing Spouse If you are thinking about doing a HECM to HECM Refinance, it's important to know FHA's current value limits as well as your current home value. One without the other, makes it impossible to know how much money you are entitled to receive if you refinance. For instance, if the money you are poised to receive from the refinance is less than the cost of refinancing, it is not in the homeowner's best interest to do a HECM to HECM refinance.  One exception, however, is if you are refinancing to include a previous non-borrowing spouse on the reverse mortgage loan. If this is the case, the borrower must write a letter explaining the following: They acknowledge that the amount they will receive from the refinance is less than the cost of doing ...
