local: It's Open Mic Night at the Mill Iron Grill !
- 03/26/16 11:18 AM
I'm starting this blog sitting in a booth listening to LIVE music and nibbling on delicious mushroom poppers on a Saturday night. The waitress, Crystal, just brought me a steak salad and it is a plate FULL. The steak is so tender, you can cut it with a butter knife. Does it sound like I am having FUN ? My husband is tapping his foot and rockin' to the music. His basket of chicken fingers and fries just came and he's having FUN too. Excuse me, . . . . . . . . . . . . . … (1 comments)

- 03/21/16 06:49 PM
It's Friday, mid afternoon and I call my client. I'm trying to reach her because we have her loan package all but done. The time has come for her to make a decision. Should she lock in her interest rate or let her loan sit over the weekend in hopes the rate might drop by Monday morning. Does she want the rate I have today or does she want to wait ? I can't reach her so I leave her a message. If I'm going to lock this rate, I need her to tell me to go … (1 comments)

No; he doesn't need your sympathy or a get well soon card but this man is really ill ! He has an acute case of CABIN FEVER !

local: What's the difference - Pre-Approved vs Pre-Qualified
- 03/15/16 12:51 PM
Once again, my friend, Joseph Metzler has written an excellent blog posting on a critical mortgage point. He has a habit of creating valuable posts and I am proud to repost it here in my blog. Buyers and Realtors both can benefit from a better understanding of why "pre-APPROVED" is so important ! Everyone knows it is smart to get lender Pre-Approved before starting to look for a home, yet many people are actively looking at homes thinking they are Pre-Approved, when in reality, they are only Pre-Qualified. Pre-Approved or Pre-Qualified? So what is the difference?
As a Loan Officer … (4 comments)

Yes folks; it's that time again. When the time changes, it is also when the fire service recommends you change the batteries in your smoke detectors. It is suggested that you change them twice a year because you never know how long the batteries sat on the store shelf before you bought them. I posted the following message last fall when we changed our clocks the last time. In the interest of saving lives, I am reposting it tonight as we are within hours of the change. I hope you will take this seriously and remind other loved … (5 comments)
