In the News

I'm taking a break from the busyness of loans to update our blog. It's been a whirlwind month with mortgage bailouts, Fannie, Freddie, the list goes on.

So, I'm taking a moment to let you know that in the midst of all the craziness, there's good stuff happening. From first time homebuyers to the experienced investor, many are finding a silver lining in what is going on in the housing market. How exciting to step back from the bigger picture and realize that right now, someone is becoming a homeowner for the first time, putting the keys in their own front door, picking out paint colors and furniture!

For those who already have a home and have equity (yes, it still exists!), we're helping people gain control of their finances by consolidating debt or helping with home improvement projects.

I could go on, but I simply wanted to step back for a moment and reflect on the good that's happening.

For those in a challenging season, please remember that there is always Hope. There's a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter what CNN or your 401k statement says :)

Holding Steady

Rates continue to hold steady - so don't miss out before they start to go up later this year. There has been some good news about the housing market recently - with certain areas seeing a spike in home sales and other areas beginning to stabilize.

The 15 year mortgage rates continue to be the best deal in town if you can handle the higher payment of a 15 year mortgage.
