  LSU football fans cheered the Tigers on to a win Friday afternoon in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, against the Arkansas Razorbacks. But I wasn't there to just watch the game - I was there to cheer for my daughter, April Giddens, as she was honored during the second quarter as the Louisiana 2012 Teacher of the Year - Here's her picture on the big screen at the game: And as an added treat, April's husband, Mike, and her three children, Hannah, Timothy and Emma, get to pose with the LSU Tiger! Well, it was a good day for LSU fans - but it was also a good day for our family!   11/27/2011

  Are you wondering about that word ....."Lagniappe"? It entered English from Louisiana French, which in turn is derived from the American Spanish phrase la ñapa (something that is added) or throwing in a little something extra.  Although a old custom, it is still practiced in Louisiana!      It was that "little something extra" that made the "Louisiana Leadership Lagniappe", a gathering of branch owners, managers, and members of corporate staff of Fairway Independent Mortgage in Natchitoches, Louisiana, from around the country so very special.  Instead of meeting in a standard, stuffy convention hall at a local hotel, we chose to gather at the elegant, century old Victorian home, Sweet Cane Inn, located in the heart of the Natchitoches Landmark Historic District historic district of Na... 10/13/2011

    These are some tips to consider when buying land for building a home or placing a mobile home on it. Follow the tips below to purchase your land.  Picking out a Lot: Size- Make sure the size is big and deep enough to put your home on.  Remember to take in consideration the restrictions for that area or subdivision such as minimum to build, how far from road to build, and fences, etc.  Slope - Is the land flat or is it bumpy and raised in places?  For building homes in Louisiana, it probably better to get a flat lot, that makes it easier for drainage, which means no flooding.  It also makes it easier for the builder to get it ready for a slab. In other areas this might be the perfect type of lot to build a basement on. Utilities - Check to see if the developer has gas, electric, sew... 07/25/2010

    I've been trying to FIND A HOME for a client who has been approved for a RURAL DEVLOPMENT LOAN.  I have shown my client at least a dozen homes and we've spent time searching the internet also, looking for their  DREAM HOME.   My client could not find a home they liked.  The homes were either, too old or did not have the main features she wanted, a second bathroom with at least a shower in it and a updated kitchen. So, my client started thinking about building a  NEW HOME, in a NATCHITOCHES community.  These are some things you need to do, if you are approved through Rural Development (RD) and you can't find a home to buy and want to build.   Get in touch with your RURAL DEVELOPMENT (RD)  contact and let them know that you intend to build.

Real Estate- Down Market Means Buyers Market Real estate can be a great investment strategy, but it's not without risks. Knowing when to buy and sell, and making wise purchasing choices, will greatly increase your ability to make money and protect your investments in the real estate market. Currently America is experiencing one of the worst down markets in recent history, and the world is feeling the effects of the down market as well. For most Americans, this trend has had a negative effect on their portfolio, as their stocks and retirement funds have seen a steep decline in value. For anyone considering a real estate purchase for personal or investment purposes, however, there is a silver lining to these dark economic times. A down market translates into a buyers market in real estate... 06/27/2010

    Yesterday, I helped my cousin her with her LOAN MODIFICATION  paperwork she had received from BofA.  She told me, she had not paid her mortgage loan in about 4 years, and was told not to make payments by different people she encountered during her 4 year hardship. The lender filed foreclosure paperwork to sieze her home about a year ago, however, they have not actually set the sale date.  I was amazed at her story.  HOW CAN YOU LIVE IN A HOME FOR 4 YEARS AND DON'T PAY YOUR MORTGAGE, AND STILL BE ABLE TO KEEP YOUR HOME? I hope that after she sends in this paperwork for her loan modification that she is approved and given an affordable loan modification.  I so want her to keep her home.  DO YOU WONDER HOW SHE GOT THE HOUSE FROM THE GET GO? Well, it seems that she applied for a loan wi... 06/10/2010
