The mortgage industry is fascinating.  I've enjoyed over 20 years helping 1,000's of homeowners finance or refinance their home.  Even amongst the turmoils that the industry has experienced over the last several years this continues to be one of the most rewarding aspects of my career.

elgin: Can it Be True?!?! Is the $8,000 Tax Credit REALLY Coming to an End? - 03/15/10 03:35 PM
Yes, it's true!  As a matter of fact it's coming to an end very soon!  If you hope to take advantage of this special tax credit incentive you have until April 30, 2010 to have a contract accepted and until July 01, 2010 to close.
