arcadia lakes: Household Debt Drops By Record Amount - 12/10/09 01:54 PM
The U.S. Federal Reserve Board announced that household debt had its biggest ever decline in the third quarter, down 2.5% with mortgage debt falling 3.5% and credit card debt falling 3.25%.

 
 
It was the fifth consecutive quarterly decline in U.S. household debt, the Fed notes. At the same time, the difference between assets and liabilities, households' net worth, rose 5% to $53.4 trillion, the second consecutive quarter of expansion.
It looks like some stabilization is finally taking hold.  The economic picture for 2010 is looking better all the time.

arcadia lakes: DOW 10,000 We Barely Knew Ye - 10/16/09 07:36 PM
DOW 10,000 We Barely Knew Ye
That didn't last long.  Bank of America posted a $1 billion third-quarter loss due to delinquent credit card and mortgage payments.
GE reported weaker-than-expected quarterly revenue which was disappointing after such strong reports by some other companies earlier in the week.
Closing at 9,996 is not a bad way to end the week, though.  More earnings reports are on tap for next week and any good data should move us back higher.  This has been a tremendous rebound from the first week of March when the DOW slipped below 7,000.  Hopefully everyone's IRA and 401K holdings are looking much better than … (7 comments)

arcadia lakes: Homes For Sale In Arcadia Lakes, SC - 09/04/09 11:12 PM
Columbia SC  Until the early 1900s the area now known as Arcadia Lakes was farmland and towering pines.  It was called the Douglas Mill land back then and several multi-acre lots were sold to Columbia families that wanted to move to the country.  An election in 1959 marked the official beginnings of the town of Arcadia Lakes.  The Federal Census count of 1960 had climbed to over 300 residents.
The Arcadia Lakes time capsule was buried behind the Tree of Life Congregation in 1991.  For some reason it was dug up and is now being held in a safety deposit box at a First … (2 comments)

arcadia lakes: Adding Appeal To Your Home - 10/13/08 11:54 AM
As older homeowners look to downsize and younger buyers eye their spacious homes, here are a few tips for appealing to today's buyer:
Remove your older-generation items.   Remember visiting your grandparents home as a kid?  Can you recall how dated their furnishings seemed?  That is how younger buyers might perceive your home where you've lived for a long while.  Before listing your home for sale empty it of all furniture you don't absolutely need. Put the rest in a storage unit.
Let the light shine in.   Unlike many older homeowners who have spent hundreds of dollars on draperies the younger home buyers prefer … (0 comments)
