Whether you are buying a home or refinancing the one you already own, there are steps you can take to avoid unnecessary problems as the transaction gets to closing.  While it is important your chosen loan officer (read->Me;) helps to educate you on these, doing your due diligence before hand is rarely a bad idea.  Here's some food for thought:

guilford connecticut real estate: Welcome to Guilford Connecticut 06437 - 07/09/08 09:33 AM
                GUILFORD - "This town, the seventh oldest, was founded in 1639 by an oppressed but optimistic band of English Puritans.  Henry Whitfield, a minister in Ockley, near London, was the moving spirit behind their emigrations. About forty of his friends and sympathizers formed a joint stock company to sail across the Atlantic. They were mostly young and energetic men, farmers, well-educated, and all of them persons of high standing in their community.  In a deed of sale dated September 29, 1639, the Whitfield Company purchased the lands between Stony Creek and East River from the Squaw Shaumpishuh, Sachem of the … (9 comments)

Breakfast in Guilford...

guilford connecticut real estate: Guilford, Connecticut - Median Sale Price of Single Family Homes - 01/30/07 06:27 PM
The median sales price of single family homes in Guilford continues to shift lower and the number of homes sold is off about 9% from recent years.  Prices of individual homes are retaining their value and have not fallen as drastically as the chart may seem to indicate.  I am noticing an adjustment in what the consumer is buying,   lower priced homes are selling while potential buyers of the massive McMansions play a waiting game to see if price drops forecast by the media materialize.
