BOOST your Credit Score
Theoretically, You have More control over the amount and terms of debt than you do over how the markets impact the value of your investments. Do you have as much control as you would like? Are the low interest rates you've been reading about out of reach because your credit score isn't high enough? It's NEVER too late to get your debt under control and take steps to increase your credit score.
WHY CREDIT SCORES MATTER
The so called FICO score is the most widely accepted measure of credit worthiness; it is a quick gauge of your ability to repay debt. A high credit score can not only help you secure a lower interest rate when you need to borrow; it can even reduce your insurance premiums and some employers consider it when deciding whether or not to hire you for a job.
In general companies using the FICO score believe people with higher scores tend to act more responsibly in other ares of their lives as well. Conversely, a lower score makes it harder to get a loan, land a job or qulify for the best terms on a wide variety of consumer contracts.
FICO scores range from 300 to 850. Only a small percentage of consumers have scores over 800. The median score is roughly 725 and a score of 760 or higher usually gets you the best deals in interest rates etc. Income and assets (which are NOT included in the credit score formula) can also affect the amount and terms of a loan. However depending on the lender's standards a good job, high net worth may NOT be Enough to OVERCOME a POOR credit score.
A higher credit score will give you leverage in negotiating the best terms. MyFICO.com estimates that someone with a FICO score of at least 720 who takes out a 36 month $20,000 car loan will pay a 6.47% annual percentage rate (APR). In contrast with someone with a score between 500 and 589 will pay 18.403%.
(Source: MYFICO data as of July 14,2009. Interest rates are natioanl averages).
IMPROVING YOUR CREDIT SCORE
Five factors have an impact on your FICO score: payment history,leght of credit history, credit use, frequency of new credit requests and typres of credit. see previous article explaining what you can do to increase your credit score.
CHECK YOUR CREDIT HISTORY
The three main credit reporting agencies - Experian, Equifax and Transunion - are each required to provide consumers with a FREE copy of their credit report every 12 months.
It's a good idea to request a copy from one of the three agencies every four months on a rotating basis.
To do so go to http://www.annualcreditreport.com/
As you check out your credit reports, look for errors (such as accounts you never heard of or closed long ago, or late payments that were actually paid on time) and follow instructions for correcting mistakes.
THE BOTTOM LINE - BORROW SMART
For most people, some level of debt is a necessity. When you need to borrow, take appropriate steps so YOU are the one who is In Charge of the terms and conditions - not the lender.

Remember either every 4 months with a different agency or 1 time a year on ALL 3 agencies.
P.S. I just did it myself I got my credit report but NOT my credit FICO score you have to pay for that. OR get pre-qualified by a mortgage company and they will have to give you a copy of your report and the FICO score.

For most people, some level of debt is a necessity. When you need to borrow, take appropriate steps so YOU are the one who is In Charge of the terms and conditions - not the lender.
The material here is provided for general inforamtion purposes only.
Five Ways to Improve Your Credit
PAY YOUR BILLS ON TIME! - Payment history accounts for roughly 35% of your score. Paying your bills on time is the MOST important thing to do. If you are behind, get caught up and then stay current. If you are struggling, CONTACT your creditors to work out a payment schedule.
INCREASE THE LENGTH OF YOUR CREDIT HISTORY - It accounts for 15% of your score. Cancelling an OLD card or getting alot of NEW credit within a short time span can hurt your score because it lowers the AVERAGE AGE of your accounts.
KEEP CREDIT BALANCES LOW - Credit use makes up 30% of your CREDIT SCORE. Try to keep the amoutn you borrow below 25% of your AVAILABLE CREDIT. Even if you pay off your credit cards every month, the average balance will still impact your score.
MINIMIZE NEW CREDIT REQUESTS - They account for 10% of your credit score. Every time a potential lender asks for a copy of your credit report, an inquiry is recorded. If you will be applying for a loan in the near future, DON'T apply for ANY NEW credit cards beforehand. You can also ask the three main reporting agencies to stop unsolicited credit offers.
MAINTAIN DIFFERENT TYPES OF INSTALLMENT AND REVOLVING DEBT - About 10% of your score depends on the type of credit used. How you handle revolvng credit (ie: credit cards) carries more weight than how you deal with installment debt (such as car loans and mortgages).

IRS Warns Taxpayers to Beware of First-Time Homebuyer Credit Fraud
WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today announced its first successful prosecution related to fraud involving the first-time homebuyer credit and warned taxpayers to beware of this type of scheme.
On Thursday July 23, 2009, a Jacksonville, Fla.-tax preparer, James Otto Price III, pled guilty to falsely claiming the first-time homebuyer credit on a client’s federal tax return. Price faces the possibility of up to three years in jail, a fine of as much as $250,000, or both.

New Truth In Lending Rules can cause a 3 day delay for closing
New Truth In Lending Rules for Mortgages
Here are the new rules for TIL (truth in lending) forms for all mortgages applied for after July 30th, 2009.
• The “early” TIL disclosures must be delivered or placed in the mail not later than 3 business days after the creditor receives the consumer's written application, and at least 7 business days before consummation of the transaction. This is a new “waiting period.”
“business days” do not include Saturday or Sunday. Similar to attorney review.
• If the annual percentage rate (“APR”) on the disclosure becomes inaccurate, by increasing or decreasing changes by more than 1/8 (.125%), the creditor must now make corrected disclosures to the consumer with a revised APR. The consumer must receive the corrected disclosures no later than 3 business days before consummation.
What does this mean?
If any of the fees change on the final settlement statement to a great extent compared to the GFE (good faith estimate) that was signed by the borrower at time of application (increase OR decrease in fees), a new TIL(truth in lending) disclosure will have to be generated and you have to wait 3 more days before you can close.
So a lender can’t have a higher or lower rate by more than .125% at closing AND the lender fees can’t go up or down by more than a couple of hundred bucks or you will have to wait another 3 days. Lender credits of any significant amount will cause a 3-day delay, even if it benefits the buyer.

Are We There Yet? Have we reached bottom?
"How's the market"? Are we there yet? That is the question that I get asked the most. In Rumson, the price ranges that are currently selling the most are $500,000 - $600,000 and over $2M Homes and under $3million and anything over $3 million is still taking longer. The luxury market always takes longer in any market.
The Average sold price in Monmouth County is $471,501 with 105 days on the market.
for more statistical information you can go to my website www.monmouthmarketwatch.com
Rates remain low, inventory is still high, so plenty of choices, and with some very motivated sellers It is a GREAT time to buy.
For first time buyers or if you have not owned a home for the past three years the $8000 credit is good until December 1st, 2009. Use it.
The second most asked questions - "Have we hit bottom"? “When will we hit bottom?”
"I don't know', and guess what neither does anyone else!!.
I do sense the buyer confidence is on the rise and that we appear to be leveling off. This does not mean that prices will suddenly go back up, as with any cycle it takes a long time for the cycle to complete.
Therefore, my advice to the seller who is thinking of waiting- you might have to wait for several years just to get back to where we were 2 years ago.
For the buyer, I advise moving ahead at this time before mortgage rates move upward and change the affordability factor. Smart sellers have been moving with the market, pricing correctly the first time and selling quickly, freeing up equity to invest in other real estate.
Selecting a realtor is not like choosing a flavor of ice cream. Please consider the size of the transaction before deciding to place the responsibility upon a friend or acquaintance to represent you. In additon to intelligence and knowledge, look for integrity and ethics. Some agents do less transactions but with better results.
Even a good agent is only as good as their client allows them to be. In some cases the client ignores good advice and ends up selling for less later on. In some instances it may not be what the client wants to hear, but it is only when one has factual honest information the client can make informed decisions.

Speak Out Against Taxes on Real Estate: Demand Full Restoration of Property Tax Deduction
Earlier this spring, the New Jersey Association of REALTORS (NJAR) notified you of Governor Jon Corzine's budget plan calling for a one-year suspension for all non-senior households earning more than $150,000 to deduct property taxes from their state tax filings. In a high-cost state like ours, imposing this income threshold could mean that a husband and wife working as a police officer and school teacher may not qualify for the deduction. Recognizing the harmful impact this plan would have on working class homeowners, NJAR is, once again, asking that you take action against this proposal.
As budget negotiations are drawing to a close, it’s crucial to send Trenton one last message that you oppose even the partial elimination of the property tax deduction. Given current economic conditions, this is the worst possible time to propose any legislation that undermines the basic foundation of homeownership. The partial elimination of the property tax deduction is just a third of the triple whammy for homeowners under this budget plan. All non-senior taxpayers are slated to lose their property tax rebates. Additionally, educational and municipal aid, which is used to offset property taxes, is either being frozen or cut. These proposed policies will certainly lead to higher property taxes.
As you know, the state budget process can be extremely turbulent. In the past, lawmakers have proposed tax increases at the last minute to avoid public scrutiny. Speak out against any eleventh hour attempt by lawmakers to raise or impose new taxes on the real estate industry or property owners. Let legislators know that we will be opposed to any effort by them to hike taxes on real estate. Encourage REALTORS, clients, family and friends to send a letter to their lawmakers through the NJAR Action Center.

DoD Publishes Help for Military Families Selling Due to Transfer
DoD Publishes Help for Military Families Selling Due to Transfer
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) expanded the Department of Defense's (DoD) authority to help active duty families who are having to sell their homes at a loss due to a permanent change of station (PCS). Last week, DoD published the guidance on this new program. Families with homes purchased prior to July 1, 2006 located where the market area is experiencing a decline of at least 10 percent can receive up to 90 percent reimbursement on the loss of the sale of their home based on the previous fair market value. This is increased to 95 percent for Wounded Warriors and Surviving Spouses. For full guidance on the Housing Assistance Program, visit the program website.

Yes there has been a lot of discussion about this topic but it is NOT an option currently. Those statements were made by the SECRETARY of HUD yesterday and a HUD/FHA letter was published on the website Monday night.
BUT……..the new DIRECTOR of HUD pulled that Mortgagee letter this morning and is no longer even available on the HUD website.

Making Home Affordable Allows Modification of Second Mortgages
Making Home Affordable Allows Modification of Second Mortgages
On April 28, 2009, the Treasury Department announced expansion of the Making Home Affordable Program to help reduce payments on second mortgages. The Obama Administration took this action because as many as 50 percent of all at-risk borrowers have second mortgages and without modifying them the borrowers remain at a higher risk of default. Under the Second Lien Program, if the servicer initiates a Home Affordable Modification on the first mortgage, participating servicers will automatically reduce payment on the second lien in accordance with complex, but uniform, program criteria. As an alternative, servicers may extinguish the second lien in exchange for receiving a lump sum payment. For more details, read the Treasury Department's press release.

Asbury Park Considering New Parking Plan
On April 22, 2009, the Asbury Park City Council will consider a parking plan prepared by the Asbury Park Parking Advisory Committee similar to a proposal considered but not enacted in 2008 in the Borough of Point Pleasant Beach.

Great News for Homeowners and Realtors Selling Houses in Oceanport...
Oceanport Approves New Sign Ordinance
After hearing concerns that the Borough of Oceanport did not allow the placement of open-house directional signs, REALTORS® from the Monmouth County Association of REALTORS® (MCAR) and NJAR® began working with the Mayor and Council in Oceanport to request a change in their sign ordinance.
On April 16, 2009, the Oceanport Borough Council approved an ordinance permitting the placement of two temporary, directional signs in the public right-of-way advertising an open house. In addition, as was the case under the previous ordinance, one temporary sign is allowed on the property being sold. Under the new ordinance, no sign can block a site triangle or have any attachments such as balloons that can obstruct a driver's view.
This is great new for homeowners and Realtors where the houses were more inland and not of the main road this way people driving by can find the house even if they did not see the ads
