There are five main factors that are considered when your score is calculated. Payment History Do you pay your credit card obligation on time?

  Heber City Real Estate, For Sale by Owner or Realtor Some people are very successful at selling their home “by owner”. They have knowledge of key marketing strategies, how to best show their home, and they possess a good understanding of contracts. They are versed in negotiation tactics, but most of all, they are aware of the current market in their area and have priced their home appropriately. They realize the majority of homes on the market today are sold through an agency and they are aware that potential buyers might expect them to sell for less that market value because they will not be paying an agency commission. On the other hand, listing your home with a Realtor means that upon the sale, you pay a commission to the agencies involved out of your proceeds. This commission is n...

Great Restaurant in Heber, Utah There was a time not too long ago that there weren't any fine dining restaurants in the Heber area.  But there truly is a Great Restaurant in Heber, Utah, and it's actually been here for a while, so if you haven't checked it out, you really need to do so!  The Snake Creek Grill is tucked away in quaint Heber Old Town which is also the location of the Heber Creeper, a scenic old railroad ride.  The building echoes turn-of-the-century (last century) western architecture complete with wainscoting, gold walls, funky antiques and squeaky wide board floors.  The ambiance is much like sitting in the living room of an old, charming house. That's all great, but if I was the chef, you probably would only come once.  However, Dean Hottle is the Chef and owner.  He h...

Are you purchasing a short sale, vacant or foreclosed home, condo or townhome in Timberlakes, Utah? Industry experts and the federal government all agree and recommend using thermal infrared cameras on all home inspections. Hi resolution infrared thermal imaging is the only tool to uncover hidden water and sewer drain leaks that most often occur when a vacant home sits unattended over the winter. We are finding an ever increasing number of vacant homes with small plumbing leaks that only high-rez infrared cameras can find. These leaks, if left unrepaired will only cause a mold problem to manifest itself in the months to come. Alamo Infrared is the original infrared home inspection and energy auditing company in the Rocky Mountain West. For more information visit our website:  www.utahen...

As a Loan Officer here in Utah County, I have found that many consumers don't fully understand the term Annual Percentage Rate.  Probably no other disclosure is as baffling to the average consumer as APR is.  Few understand how the APR can be higher than the interest rate.  The APR is the finance charge expressed as a numerical percentage, which is an expression of the annualized finance charge.  The APR includes the interest rate plus all of those items that are included in the finance charge. Although few mortgage lenders actually do it, lenders are required to disclose the APR when inquiries are made orally.  The APR also has to be fully disclosed on any advertising materials.  Search Utah MLS Utah County Homes AMP Mortgage Xpress Orem Real Estate Provo Orem Homes Provo Real Estate U...
