One of the most powerful retirement planning tools available to retirees is the new Pueblo, Colorado Reverse Mortgage. You will no longer have a mortgage payment for the rest of your life with a reverse mortgage, and studies show that retirees with a CO Reverse Mortgage end up with a higher net worth upon their death.The benefits of today’s reverse mortgage on the financial well-being of retirees have been analyzed in recent years through extensive studies. In fact, in one study by Barry and Stephen Sacks shows that while 45% of retirees without a reverse mortgage outlive their money in retirement, only 15% who have a reverse home loan outlive their money. What would it mean for you if you outlive your retirement nest egg in your 80’s or 90’s? Used as a financial planning tool, the CO R...

Hi my name is RJ Baxter and I'm a VA Mortgage expert here in Colorado. A friend of mine told me years ago that if I wasn't focusing on Pueblo County Colorado VA Mortgages that I was missing a big opportunity to help those who have served our Country.   I took his advice to heart and now my focus is to help those who have their VA eligibility to buy a home or refinance. It's hard to believe, but only 9% of those eligible to use their VA Home Loan benefits to purchase a house do so.   There's many reasons. Many loan officers don't know how to do VA loans, and some banks don't offer them. The VA Loan is such an Great Program for those in Colorado. A few reason why it's so great:   1. 100% financing up to a purchase price of $417,000.   2. Only need a 620 credit score to qualify   3. No mon...

This weekend Chile Lovers in Colorado may very well be flocking to Pueblo for the 19th annual Chile & Frijolie Festival.  For Chile Pepper lovers the date on the calendar is marked well in advance for the opportunity to not only sample different types of chilies but also get roasted bags of peppers to bring home. In 2012, there were over 130,000 attendees to the festival and more seem to come every year.   The weekend is full of music, food, entertainment and fun.  If you did not know until now no worries, the Festival runs Friday - Sunday up and down Union Avenue in Pueblo.
