I strongly recommend that you call them and get pre-approved for there loan programs before you start your property search!   In today’s lending environment it’s critical to apply for and get pre-approved for a loan before shopping around for property. Many sellers will not even consider an offer you submit unless it has your loan pre-approval letter with it. Also the sellers will be more likely to immediately accept your offer, even if that offer is for less than list price.   There are more advantages to gaining pre-approval than you would initially surmise. When the lender hands a borrower a pre-approval letter, it means the borrower can: Save Time by Looking at the Right Homes in the right price range, Spend More Time Examining the Right Homes knowing what the loan costs – down paym... 12/27/2011

  It's no secret that fewer people are playing golf. More golf courses are closing than opening. Opinions for the downturn vary from "it's the economy" to a simple change in demographics.  But some are wondering if the rules of the game are part of the problem.  Enter Flogton (not golf spelled backwards). Flogtonites argue that the game needs an overhaul to increase its appeal to younger players used to fast-paced video games, those with less than stellar athletic abilities, and an aging population of golfers who can't quite hit the ball as hard as they used to. They argue that alternative golf formats will bring more players onto the courses. You can hear the purists grinding their teeth. Have no fear. There would still be rules. Different rules. The goal is not to replace PGA golf bu... 02/20/2011

The Dodd-Frank law has legally mandated a makeover for mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Fannie and Freddie, along the FHA (another government- backed agency), are behind nearly 90% of US mortgages. The goal of reform is to make sure we do not ever see another financial meltdown requiring a $150 billion dollars taxpayer bailout. The question: how much should the U.S. government be involved in mortgage availability?  The challenge: making sure home buyers can get affordable mortgages. Will Fannie and Freddie disappear completely?  No one knows yet but what is become clear is that the government's role in mortgage markets is likely to become a lot smaller.  At stake is a 10.6 trillion dollar mortgage market. There is no consensus on how to best meet the challenge and no single ... 02/13/2011

More good news for boomers! It seems we may be smarter than we were in our 20s.  You already suspected that, didn't you?  For years, we have been told that our brains peak in early adulthood and then slowly go downhill from there. Now, science has discovered that our brains continue to produce neurons for brainpower and that some brain processes actually improve into mid-life.   It's not all good news.  Aging brains do slow down and process information more slowly in middle age (40-69 these days).  Retrieving information - especially names - can become a challenge.  And middle aged brains tend to lose focus sometimes. Ever stepped into another room and then could'nt remember why you went in there?  In exchange for a few inconveniences, middle aged brains are generally happier, more cre... 02/12/2011
