You have applied for your mortgage; your lender has verified your employment history, income, bank funds and credit report, and has now issued you your mortgage pre-approval letter.  Now that you have your mortgage pre-approval letter, please don’t: go out and buy new furniture buy or lease a new car apply for any other loans open a credit card account change employers co-sign on a loan or do anything else that can change your income to debt ratio, savings account balance or your credit score.  Any change can make it harder for you to obtain the loan you had been pre-approved for.

Should I sell now or wait it out?  That is the question so many homeowners are asking themselves today.  I do not have a crystal ball but I tell my Pinecrest Florida homeowners that if they want to sell, they need to get their home on the market ASAP!  You will most likely get more money for your home today than you will 6 months from now. Here is a current example of what the Pinecrest Florida real estate market is doing.  Eight months ago, in April, I was asked to do a market analysis on a Pinecrest Florida home.  At that time I told the homeowners they could expect to sell their home for $825,000.  I met with these same folks yesterday to go over an updated market analysis.  I showed them that today they could expect to sell their home for $785,000.  The expected sales price of their... 12/12/2010

Pinecrest Farmer's Market at the Pinecrest Gardens What an absolutely gorgeous day for the opening of the Pinecrest Farmer's Market at the Pinecrest Gardens! I woke up and it was a breezy 52 degrees, and when I arrived at the Farmer's Market, it was 62 degrees. And the location has changed this year. The market is at the back of the parking lot, in the shade! And it's much larger. The Market Company has done a phenomenal job of creating a true farmer's market! You could be anywhere USA!
