georgia: FHA loan limits in Acworth, Georgia
- 06/07/10 05:09 AM
Selling or buying a home in Acworth, Georgia probably means you are within the FHA loan limits for the area. I know Acworth well, I grew up there from 1962 to 1977. The good news is Acworth home prices in the 30101 zip code have recovered much of their loss over the last few months. With the median price of homes in Acworth being within the limits of FHA lending for the area you gain a great advantage. If the home buyer has 3.5% down or can get a gift from a qualifying party and the home price is within FHA home … (0 comments)

For anyone who has been paying attention over the last five or so years you have witnessed one of the most volatile times in the economic history of not only the United States but the world. Many very well educated and experienced experts say the worst could be yet to come unless .... They all have different statements after the "unless" part but they all agree consumer confidence is very important to turning the corner on this nasty global economy. While I probably do not have the answers for the global economy I do have the answers for people looking for … (1 comments)

He first called me in August when Novation Mortgage was still around. He found my name on the internet by search Google for "fha home loans" and called me for one reason: I was the first link on the list. After reviewing the story I understood why he was searching.

He had been pre-approved for an FHA loan as non-occupant co-borrower on a home for his daughter who is on an H4 Visa which has been amended and she now has her … (19 comments)
georgia: Dream solution for Georgia flood areas - special Down Payment Assistance
- 02/19/10 03:32 AM
September of 2009 brought devastating flooding to many areas of metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. During this time flood waters from the Chattahoochee River, the Yellow River, Peachtree Creek and hundreds of other small tributaries and reservoirs crested to record levels. During a 24 to 48 hour period as much as 15 inches of rain deluged the already water soaked landscape and created a new line of demarcation between flood zone and safe zone. At least eight people lost their lives, hundreds were injured and thousands left homeless as the Georgia flood receded. What it left behind, as does any flood or other disaster, is wounded lives … (4 comments)

- 10/12/09 11:47 AM
Fifty years ago this past August I was born in the same hospital where decades later my children would be born and I would say good-bye to both of my parents. I remember when there was no Interstate highway, only six government high schools and the fire department was all volunteer. That was before my fellow Cobb County residents Ty Pennington, Travis Tritt or Julie (Julia) Roberts were born. The seat of Cobb County is Marietta. I was, in fact born in Marietta and that is where I currently live. As a side note I live in the home my parents … (18 comments)

Folks, call your Novation loan officer today and get pre-approved. Then pick up the phone and call one of the Georgia or Florida agents listed below and go shopping. Deals abound and as you can see money for mortgages is just as cheap as it can possibly be and I will treat you better than those national advertisers. Remember, advertisements for lower rates generally require discount points - DiTech likes to use 2% of the loan amount - and unrealistic credit scores such as 731 and above. These are real rates, no discount points, 80% LTV, full doc, FNMA, 680 … (2 comments)

You may not feel aggressive or competitive but if you even read this much you are! Business, like life, requires at least one basic desire: To live and thrive! It's never over - but it is constantly changing. Making the mistake of thinking you finally have it all figured out is usually a fatal act. At the very least it is incredibly crippling and most often results in a setback that, at the very least, makes you feel like you have to start over. A body that never changes is in a state of stasis - or death. What we want is … (6 comments)
