Once loan documents are received by the title company, we will make an appointment for all us to go to the title company and sign your loan documents. (7 comments)
This is a common question asked by almost all first time homebuyers these days, as there are so many foreclosure and short sale homes on the market.
Short Sale A home that is being sold as a short sale is a home that the sellers still own. The home becomes a short sale when the sellers cannot sell the home for the amount of money that they owe on the home. This means that the sale of the home will not pay off (5 comments)

This law was put into place for environmental protection, and for the most part includes woodstoves or inserts that are over 25 years old, or those that you have installed yourself. How can you tell if your woodstove or fireplace (0 comments)
