A couple of weeks back, the ultimate authority on Stockbridge mortgage rates hadn’t minced words. That was Freddie Mac, whose opinion about mortgage rates constitutes the final say in the matter. Freddie isn’t modest about its preeminence (Freddie’s trademarked corporate slogan is “We make home possible”). Together with sibling Fannie Mae, the quasi-governmental entities stand behind 60% of U.S. mortgages.Each week their PMMS survey collects data snapshots from thrifts, credit unions, banks, and mortgage lenders to gauge of the direction of the home loan market. Future Stockbridge home hunters and the homeowners whose properties are found in the current listings (or soon will be) are constantly affected by those ups and downs. For one thing, they dictate the “monthly payment” calculatio...

Short sales in Stockbridge GA open the doors of opportunity for many home sellers and home buyers. The abundance of short sales in Stockbridge GA is just one reason why the city real estate market has been able to weather the current storm. Stockbridge GA is one of the most sought-after locations for Henry County home buyers. What attracts new residents to relocate to Stockbridge? It’s the wealth of new real estate development, particularly around the Eagles Landing area, anchored by a prosperous new business district, Henry Medical Center/Piedmont Henry Hospital, and the Behind-the-gates air of luxury that comes with living at or near the Eagles Landing Golf and Country Club.

  Do you own a home in the Carriage Lake Subdivision in Stockbridge, Georgia that you want to sell?  Have you experienced a drastic decline in your property value and currently owe more than your home is worth?  If the answer is yes, I can help you right now.  I recently sold two homes in Carriage Lake Subdivision and I can sell your home even if you owe more than it’s worth.  I sold 309 Carriage Lake Lane in Stockbridge and 319 Carriage Lake Lane in Stockbridge.  Both of these homes were sold for less than the payoff and the mortgage companies for both of these properties accepted a settlement with no further payments needed from the homeowner.  That’s right; no deficiency balance was owed at all!  Your mortgage company wants to work with you, but you need a licensed professional to p...

How Can You Help Your Georgia Neighbors… Are you aware that there are options for people whose mortgages are no longer affordable? Would it surprise you to know that many of your Ellenwood and Stockbridge, GA neighbors might be facing foreclosure and NOT be aware of the choices they have to avoid it? It’s sad but true: 27% of Americans with mortgages now owe more than their home’s current value.  A recent study in Nevada (the state with the nation’s highest foreclosure rate), found that only 5% of distressed homeowners knew they had alternatives to foreclosure, AND only 3% took advantage of them. It was also found that 1 in 4 homeowners chose to “strategically default,” or allow their homes to be foreclosed upon on purpose! …and Save Your Neighborhood? How do you imagine your community ...

My buyer client and I have been working together for about a month and a half, and we have looked at a lot of homes.  My client has a pretty specific set of preferences - more so than most other buyer clients.  After looking at so many properties and not finding what she liked, she had a couple of temptations to call it quits.  Each time I would offer her the advice that we just keep looking and something is bound to come along. Her close friends have also been helping to keep my client encouraged.  It's good when a client has a positive support network of encouragement.  Too often you have the person or persons that you just know are in your corner, and they turn out to be the most negative about the whole home buying plan. Well we looked at some nice homes yesterday, and I think we go...
