Do You Know Your Number?

Spring is here! (Did it ever leave us in San Diego?)

Your credit score can mean the difference between securing a historic low interest rate on a loan and being stuck in a higher tier. Great credit scores are the result of one thing—a stellar credit history.

More than 18% of consumers have near perfect FICO scores (800-850).* While it may seem difficult to reach this level, especially for the 15% of consumers in the lowest FICO range (300-549), it’s not impossible. The information I’m sending this month details the steps to take to begin improving your credit now. Page one gives the facts about credit, including the information that comprises your credit score. Page two offers three tips that will help you to improve your credit.

You can access that information in a pdf by clicking this link:

What Will 2013 Hold for the Housing Market?

Many people are curious about what the housing market will look like in 2013. Since housing is seen as a leading indicator of economic recovery, even people who aren’t looking to enter the market are anxious to see if this will be the year that the market fully recovers.

This month, I’m including information to help you understand the status of both the national and local housing markets. The first page offers predictions and projections for the national housing market this year. Page two provides three reasons why it’s important to pay attention to what’s going on in your local market. Although the national market can give you an idea of the overall state of housing, only the local market directly impacts you and your home.

Well it seems to be getting worse before it gets better. There is a large barrier at the location where the bi-fold door is going so it looks strange. But the kitchen is in and this week we get Bathrooms installed, Stucco color coated, light fixtures installed granite in flooring installed and so by next week we should be almost ready to move. Watch this space!
