MY ADVICE To The Lead Generation Companies... - 12/06/11 07:13 PM
 
Via Greg Nino Houston Texas (RE/MAX West Houston Professionals):
Right now if you scroll through my phone and click on the contact "evil advertisers" you'll find over 80 contacts, all from real estate solicitors. When they call me my phone doesn't ring, it goes straight to voicemail.
Why do I do this?
 
Is it because I'm simply annoyed by real estate lead generation companies? No, it's much more involved than that. I actually enjoy talking to anyone who can help grow my business. If they are uneducated about their product or sound like a dummy on the phone then I quickly lose … (1 comments)

Skipping 2 house payments - 12/03/11 12:35 PM
If the refinance is closed by the 15th of January, for example, a homeowner can roll their January payment into the loan by just letting the accumulated interest due for December be added to the payoff.  Since the first payment on the new note is due in March, they skip the February payment.  Voila!  2 payments skipped.
