Tackle Home Buying .. 

Deflate Your Monthly Payment .. 

During the Super Bowl

     What are you doing this Sunday?

     If you're like millions of other Americans, you've got Super

Bowl plans.  The projected number of viewers for this year's Bowl is 184 MILLION, to be exact. 

    Many are hosting get-togethers and entertaining prior to the Bowl, during the game itself, and after. There are also office pools, pools held at restaurants and taverns, pools sponsored by charities, organizations, and websites, and pools held between friends too.  

     "Squares" get purchased.  Even by those that aren't football fans any other day of the year.  All the great food, camaraderie, and entertainment builds anticipation and guarantees that the Super Bowl will be exciting and fun. 

     But I've got a suggestion that can make your day even better ...  

     If presently a homeowner or hoping to buy a home soon ... add 1 more activity to your Super Bowl celebration.  It'll make you a winner.  It delivers you better odds than any "squares" purchased.  It'll put money back into your pocket.  

     That activity?

     Email or Text me at 708.921.6331   

     Simply email or text me the following info:

• Your Name(s)
• Your preferred Contact info (phone, email, etc.)
• Your preferred time for a return call
• The words:  Mortgage Financing 

   
     ... and that's it.  I handle the rest.  I contact you at your convenience.

     One email or text gets the ball rolling.  Simple actions that gain you the answers needed to accomplish your real estate goals.  

     A quick email or text gets you started on becoming a home buyer, a move-up buyer, or saving money via a Refinance. And easily accomplished in less time than one commercial!

     Enjoy the Super Bowl and accomplish good things for yourself all at the same time ...

Mortgage, Real Estate, & Credit News for the Pros! - Gene Mundt, Mortgage Lender, 1/17/2015

     Pros!

     There are a number of changes occurring as of today's date, January 26th, 2015. Fannie Mae's AppraisalReview changes take place on this date ... as well as FHA's reduction in mortgage insurance costs . (Click on the highlights for more detailed information.) 

     The latter will hopefully prove beneficial in kickstarting our Chicagoland real estate market and helpful in aiding potential homebuyers in their home purchases immediately and into Spring. Time will tell if the additional layer of scrutiny given to appraisals proves to be an issue. 

     Interest Rates have remained low after suffering a few hiccups earlier this month. Who could have ever predicted we'd still be seeing these present lows? Home buyers that take action to buy now will definitely benefit via the cost savings realized over the life of their loan. A great sales point!

     If you have clients sitting on the fence, have them contact me. Many times hearing and seeing actual numbers convinces them it's time to buy like nothing else can. 

     Let's make the week successful and prosperous. Give me a shout if you have questions or have clients in need of mortgage service. I'll be glad to hear from you ...

5 Mistakes to Avoid When Picking Your Social­ Media Profile ...  

     Profile avatars grace the profiles and pages of countless social media networks and are constantly interpreted by others ­ whether we want it or not. According to Psychology Today, minimalistic changes in headshots of the same person, such as the direction of the eyes, alters the first impression as much as the looking at photos of different people. 

     Being aware of what is perceived positively on social media is key to a successful personal brand. Here are five ways your social media profile avatars might be holding you back and what to do about it. (MORE ...)
