A country preacher decided to skip services one Sunday to spend the day hiking in the wilderness. Rounding a sharp bend in the trail, he collided with a bear and was sent tumbling down a steep grade. He landed on a rock and broke both legs.
With the ferocious bear charging at him from a distance, the preacher prayed, "O Lord, I'm so sorry for skipping services today. Please forgive me and grant me just one wish—make a Christian out of that bear that's coming at me!"
At that very instant, the bear skidded to a halt, fell to his knees, clasped his paws together, and began to pray aloud at the preacher's feet: "Dear God, please bless this food I am about to receive."

Very good! Can't really say it created a win-win situation though! Enjoy your day!

I give consultations on Government Home Loan Programs. I advise on how to use these loans to Buy and Sell more homes.
Many of todays home buyers are first time home buyers; will have limited funds to put down and will have no money for needed repairs or desired up-grades. Many will be younger and will have marginal incomes.
The USDA Loan and the FHA Loan are designed to address these issues.
The USDA loan offer 100% Financing while the FHA 203k loan program is attracting a lot of attention from the more sophisticated buyers of aging and bank owned properties.
