Get ‘em while their hot!The FHA 203(k) loan is one of the best loans available for purchase or refinance. Either the streamline (up to $35000) or the regular program (only the loan max applies) are great ways to make a home updated with new flooring, cabinets, paint, bath and kitchen fixtures, energy efficient. You can even make the home green or add energy efficient features to the home. If you have not done one of these transactions, then the question is WHY NOT? The average age of a US home…See More

Porter’s Pointer: Block and Tackle
We all have too much to do. I have a blessing and a curse for you. Starting right now you can no longer say “I don’t have the time.”We make time for what’s important. If you are late to a meeting but have 3 ounces of gas in your car’s tank – you stop – you find the time.Time is the great equalizer. Rich or poor, sick or healthy, educated or not – we all have the same amount of time. If it’s really important to you, you’ll find a way to make the time. It’s that simple.
