  6 Tips to Selling Your Home During the Winter Months   If your home will be for sale over the winter months, it's important to address those issues that occur more often during this time of year than any other. Shine on:  This should be happening regardless what time of year it is, but with the shorter and often cloudy days during the winter months, it's even more important.  Turn on every single light in the house, including closets, pantries, and hallways.  Don't forget the outdoor porch and patio lights as well.

The New Trend in Fixed Rate Mortgages...the 15 Year Loan   How would you like an extra $125,000?Last week, interest rates dropped to their lowest point in 2011.  We saw fixed rates as low as 4.375% for 30 years, 4.25% for 20 years, and 3.75% for 15 years.  We also saw adjustable rates as low as 2.875%!  The current trend in fixed rate mortgages is to pay a little extra and get a 15 year loan instead of a 30 year.  What's the advantage?  Let's take a look:If you have a 30 year mortgage of $200,000 at 5% interest, your payment would be $1,074 /mo (Principal & Interest only).  If you refinanced that to (or start off with) a 15 year mortgage at 3.75%, your payment would be $1,454 /mo (P&I).  For a difference of $380 /mo, you could pay your mortgage off in 15 years instead of 30 and build eq... 07/07/2011
