  I'm so excited that Ann Arbor Restaurant Week is here again. It only happens twice a year, January and June, and I use it as an excuse to try out 1 or 2 restaurants that I haven't been to yet. I'm supporting my local business and getting a great meal, right? This year is no exception and the list of restaurants is astounding. Each Chef creates a special, fixed price menu, with choices for each course. Lunches are $12 and Dinners are $25, with some restaurants even offering 2 for 1 deals.

Why do some Ann Arbor Area home sellers bury the statue of Saint Joseph? Patron Saints are protectors and guardians of special aspects of our lives. Why not just bury any statue? There are hundreds of Patron Saints, for example: St. Christopher, for Safe Travel; St. Raphael, for Nurses; Saint Michael the Archangel, for Paratroopers. Why Saint Joseph? Because he is the patron saint of homes and the family. Saint Joseph was a carpenter. Look at the photo of Sarah here in this post. I see a happy young girl getting ready to bury Saint Joseph in her front yard. Can’t you just feel her excitement, as she holds a shovel and the statue and is ready to go? Remember when you were a child and asked to do an activity that would include tools?  Imagine if your parents bought a statue of Saint Josep...

Take action and turn it around in 2012 Recent economic upheaval has taken a hefty toll. Looking forward to 2012, it’s impossible to know what’s next and the kind of an impact that an upturn or a downturn at the national level stands to have on your family’s finances. Regardless of what happens in Washington or on Wall Street, two things are very clear: you are not alone and now is the time to prepare for a new normal.   With a national epidemic of unemployment or underemployment, and 25 percent of the homeowners in the country owing more on their home than they could net for it in today’s market, homeownership for many has become a financial liability. Not being able to make payments on a home that you can’t afford to sell feels like an awful trap, but the fact is, there are solutions—a...

As rental rates continue to climb nationally, why Rent when you can Buy?  While rental rates keep climbing across the country it is also thought that interest rates are sure to follow.  First off, we know that yearly Rental increases will hurt your pocketbooks.  And, secondly, with the great rates being offered on fixed-rate mortgages, why not lock in a terrific rate today knowing the forecast is indicating a possible rate increase.  When we review the charts of the Past and Future Inflation Scenarios given to us by Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist, National Association of REALTORS in his post - Rents Rising, Dec. 16, 2011. I have one point to make -  look at the Mortgage payment – No increase in percent over time based on a 30 year fixed-rate mortgage. In other words why not get in while ...

Talk with a lender (ideally in the market that you intend to purchase*) before starting the search for your new home. A good lender will help guide you through the ever- changing mortgage application/approval process, let you know how much you can afford and check your credit. Obtaining a pre-approval upfront will set you on a positive course in the home-buying process and give you and your realtor confidence that financing will be available once you’ve found your dream home!  Tip:*Talking directly with a local lender who lives and works in the community has advantages over trying to obtain financing via phone/internet. A lender whom you have the ability to meet with face-to-face and who’ll attend the closing is more likely to be accountable throughout the process (and give you the best...
