Fargo Moorhead Housing Market
As the sandbagging begins and continues, we look to have a challenge ahead of us. Thanks to all those helping in the efforts of fighting the flood and the continued support of the community. It will all be over soon. With the flood issues present there is a slow down of home buyers shopping and awaiting to see whats happening. In 2009 we noticed a similar pattern to this daily trend. April looks to be a very strong month for houses selling. Rates continue to stay just around the 5% mark. This is great news, and we hope to see the continuation of rates throughout the summer. If you are looking to make a move soon, or know of someone who is interested in entertaining selling there home please have them contact me and I will certainly make sure they are well taken care of! Thanks once again!
MANAGING YOUR DEBT
Wouldn't it be nice if you knew that the debt bills were always taken care of. A debt investment account is an effective way to keep your debtworking plan on track. There are four simple steps you will need to follow to make this happen.
• Start up a FREE checking account at a bank that is different from the one you currently use.
• Refuse the ATM/Debit card and Checkbook for that account.
• Set up a direct deposit from your employer into this account. The amount that you want going into this account every month is enough to cover the minimum monthly payments that you started with plus whatever you decide your Debt Investment is going to be. (Remember the goal for the Debt Investment is 10% of your gross monthly income)
• Set up online banking for this account to be able to pay your debt bills from your computer If you really want to put your whole Debtworking plan on automatic pilot, contact your creditors to set up automatic withdrawal.
Restaurant of the Month
Altony's - Located in Dilworth - Dine in or Take out! The best homemade Italian food in the FM Area. If you haven't been there yet, your surely missing out!!! Just had lunch there today with a good friend, and the service was top shelf as well as the food was incredible as well as portions are huge for what you pay for! I cant' say enough good stuff about this place.
"It's SO worth the trip from Fargo, but don't make said trip on weekends, Altony's is open from 11-2 and 4-8 on Monday-Friday. I've heard a rumor that the proprietor shuts down once in a while on short notice, so it may behoove you to call before you make the trip over" - Check out more reviews - http://www.yelp.com/biz/altonys-italian-restaurant-dilworth

Looking at a house and want to know how much it is for sale for? Visit: www.KvammeRealEstate.com
All houses listed on the MLS are available to search through our site. City Tax and Assesor websites are not an accurate source for Market Value of what a home will bring in when it sells. Tax values are only a basis used by the County and City assesors to assess taxes per household and is no reflection of the daily market value or listing price. If you cannot find a house, contact me and I can send you information on it as it may be pended, or sold, and once it does either or it will no longer be available to the general viewing public, so you must contact myself to find the information out for you.
FACEBOOK
Are you on Facebook yet? If so, contact me and send me a request to be connected. Facebook is taking the world by storm, and we are starting to see a number of sights trying to piggy back off Facebook. If you are looking for additional networking channels, visit: ActiveRain.com
REMIND ME
Its time to regroup and get ahead. Tax season is coming to an end, and its time to regroup your " personal stuff". Go out and purchase a flash drive and back up your computer asap. Start files with your information, such as bank accounts, balances, credit card bills and information, loan balances, IRA information, Pictures, reciepts for purchases (scan and save), Passwords, Email accounts, and put them all on your flash drive. Store your flash drive in a safe place. If your computer were to crash, or something were to happen to files and personal information you need, you can look it up and find everything in one spot! Each year, we need to be reminded of the things that are the most important to us, but neglect the most!
