I really dislike the new Vista program...it sends my posts before I ask it
to...ARGHHH!!! Anyway...I can answer any question you might have about
lending by either emailing me at _bking@envoymtg.com_
(mailto:
bking@envoymtg.com) or calling toll-free at 877-368-6966 X110. The government has stopped
(as of yesterday) buying mortgage backed securities and this is what has
brought our interest rates so low in the recent year. However, interest
rates might (and most likely will) pop back up to the 6% range from the
current 5% soon. So, it truly is a buyer's market in financing as well. Also,
the government is still giving away money to first time home-buyers as well
as current homebuyers who are buying a new home and have owned a home in
the recent years. You can find out more info on this "free money" at
_www.irs.gov_ (
http://www.irs.gov) and look under Tax Benefits of the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Hope this helps!
For those of you on Facebook, I also have a site there under Barbara King
and Envoy Mortgage.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Karen, we relocated once when buying a home, but it was in the same state,
3 hrs. away. Honestly, it's probably all about the same.
We got a realtor in the city we decided on, she showed us lots of homes,
and did all the legwork to get us our financing locally. She took care of
everything, and all we had to do was drive there for the closing. In these
days of faxing documents, it has become everyday practice to relocate people
easily. Would have been easy if we hadn't had a flat on the way, costing
time, and hub got his suit dirty. Memories!
If you go to an area because of the area itself and not a property, you
can choose any good realtor. When going for a particular property, *I* would
not use the realtor who has the listing. It's bound to be a conflict of
interest for that person. They can only represent the buyer or seller 100%, so
you can assume they'll represent the seller better. Get someone not
associated with that property, IMHO.
You can always ask about a lease/option. In this buyer's market, anything
is possible - esp. if the property has sat vacant for a while.
