Buyers and Sellers!  You have 12 months to beat the clock! Buyers! If the Dodd-Frank Act goes into full effect next April, you will have to put 20% down in order to make a home purchase, unless you finance through FHA, or you can find a lender who will hold your mortgage in-house.  Starting next April, you will hear the term "QRM"-Qualified Residential Mortgage.  No loan will make the QRM standards unless the buyer puts 20% down and has a minimum credit rating of 740! Sellers! Imagine if the only buyers who can purchase your home are those with 20% to put down and have perfect credit? Pretty major impact on the number of qualified buyers, wouldn't you agree?  If you are sitting on the fence trying to decide if this is the right time to sell, the Dodd-Frank limitations on home mortgages ... 04/13/2011

Here are 5 benefits to owning your own home: 1.  Investment - often the largest purchase a person will make and historically real estate increasesin value. 2.  Keeps your cost of living under control - while economic conditions can drive up the cost of rent, a fixed mortgage freezes your monthly ownership expense. 3.  Reduces your tax burden - mortgage interest, real estate taxes, and loan points are all deductible expenses. 4.  Provides a source of credit - equity loans can help with college tuition, remodeling, or other necessary expenses. 5.  Allows debt consolidation - refinancing at today's low interest rates can be a good way to pay off other debts, or you might use the payment savings after refinancing to pay down existing debts. 02/22/2011

"Wait til you see that sunshine day...you ain't seen nothing yet!"

This allows us a couple of opportunities. First and foremost for those of us with families near and far, we can afford to spend more time with them, talking to them or planning to see them. The winter season also provides us time to catch up on what we've missed out on this past year in real estate, time to reflect and improve upon our mistakes and time to start planning for the heavy year ahead. Tis the season to start planting your seeds for the Summer Harvest. The first thing I do when I wake up on a typical winter morning is check my pending ... 12/20/2010
