We do not see a real credit score minimum published anywhere. However, most lenders are not accepting low credit scores for a USDA loan. What is the truth here? What is the lowest score possible for an FHA loan?

Please make sure all LOs have this
How to find active builders and spec builders.
one way is to
go to realtor.com, choose a large city
go to filters, click home, age no min, and less than one year. This should list the new construction homes.
get the addresses, the agent usually doesn’t want you speaking with their client, however, call the agent anyway and let them know that you can help their builder to build more homes, and sometimes they will introduce you. if not, then
do a Google search for parcel search using the city, county and state
. Usually, they have a gis map, and you can use it to locate the owner and the owner’s address, where you can further search and get a cell phone.
realtor.com is a great source to see who is building where and at what price.

Creating your own garden can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:
Step 1: Choose the Location
- Select a suitable area for your garden. Look for a spot that receives sufficient sunlight, ideally 6-8 hours per day, and has good drainage.
Step 2: Decide on the Garden Type
- Determine the type of garden you want to create: vegetable garden, flower garden, herb garden, or a mix of all three. Your choice will influence the layout and plant selection.
Step 3: Plan the Layout
- Draw a rough sketch of your garden on paper, indicating where you want to place different plants, paths, and features. Consider the mature size of plants when spacing them out.
Step 4: Prepare the Soil
- Test the soil to understand its pH level and nutrient content. Amend the soil if necessary by adding compost, organic matter, or other soil conditioners. Dig the soil to a depth of about 12 inches to loosen it up.
Step 5: Install Hardscape Elements (Optional)
- If you want to include hardscape elements like pathways, garden beds, trellises, or seating areas, now is the time to install them.
Step 6: Select Plants
- Choose plants that are suitable for your climate, soil type, and the amount of sunlight your garden receives. Consider factors like plant height, color, and blooming periods for an aesthetically pleasing arrangement.
Step 7: Planting
- Follow the planting instructions for each plant. Dig holes according to the size of the root ball, and place the plants gently in the ground. Water them well after planting.
Step 8: Mulch
- Apply a layer of mulch around your plants to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil health.
Step 9: Watering
- Set up a regular watering schedule based on the needs of your plants. Be mindful of not overwatering or underwatering.
Step 10: Maintenance
- Regularly weed your garden to prevent unwanted plants from taking over. Prune and deadhead plants as needed. Fertilize your plants as per their requirements.
Step 11: Pest and Disease Management
- Keep an eye out for pests and diseases. If you notice any issues, try to use organic or environmentally-friendly methods to address them.
Step 12: Enjoy Your Garden
- Take time to relax and appreciate the beauty of your garden. Gardening is a continuous learning experience, so don’t be afraid to experiment and make adjustments as you go.
Remember, gardening is a labor of love, and it may take time for your garden to fully flourish. Be patient, observe your plants, and adjust your care routine as needed. Happy gardening!

Missed by one question the Utah PLM exam. Going to set up a appointment for next available time at Pearson Vue.
Here is another question I do not understand
Edna is purchasing a four-unit investment property and is getting an ARM; the terms of the loan will be 3/6mo ARM with 1/1/5 CAP with a start interest rate of 4.25% and a margin of 2.25%. At the first adjustment, the index is 2.50%, at the second adjustment the index is 3.25%, and at the third, the index is 4.125%. What will the interest rate be at 18 months after the initial interest rate adjustment?

Bruno, MissyMu, and Gunner going to feed fish in pond. Feeding fish time. The pond did not have any fish after the big freeze in 2019 after the pond did not thaw until late May. All the fish we had died. I bought about 500 feeder Gold fish and the blue Gills reproduced from the birds dropping Blue Gill eggs. The blue Gills multipled thousands of them. Look at when we feed fish flakes. The pond looks like its hot water boiling. You can not see too many feeder goldfish but the ones you do have tripled in size. The little baby blue Gills know when it’s feeding time. Fish are smart creatures. When the pond was stocked we had a a large big mouth bass named Gilligan. Gilligan let us pet him and hand feed him. The coolest fish 🐟 who knew feeding time. Was like a dog. Liked to be hand fed. Ate hot dogs, bread, by hand. Food Gilligan didn’t like, he spit out. Gilligan died during the artic freeze when the pond did not melt until May that one year. We have lots of wildlife in this half acre pond. Bull frogs, ducks, cranes, and snapper turtles. Those snappers can be dangerous. I used to go swimming 🏊♀️ in the pond until I stepped on a snapper turtles 🐢. Then I stopped. Always careful dogs don’t get too close to pond due to snapper turtles. Sometimes I invite hillbillies down the street to catch snapper turtles for Thanksgiving and the love it. The hillbillies love snappers. Its a delicacy for them. I watched Bizzare Foods with that bald heavy set guy that eats everything from cockaroches to squirrels and saw him skin a snapper turtles 🐢 and eat it like a steak. Some people eat racoons, skunks, deers,wild turkeys, goats, cranes, parrots, and pigeons too. Not for me. No zoo animals. Cannot eat live animals I see. Only packaged frozen foods from the grocery stores only.

Commercial lending is such a broad field. Most commercial lenders are specialists on certain types of commercial loans. For example, some loan officers only specialize in SBA loans. Other commercial loan officers only do hard money loans. Yet, other commercial loan officers only limit to factoring or accounts receivables. One of the main benefit http://www.lendingnetwork.org differs from the competition is that lending network is a one-stop-commercial lending shop.

Many people like to purchase homes with acreage so they are not close to neighbors. Some homeowners have over 20 acres and are having difficulty getting financing on first or second-mortgage loans. Working on a case now where my client has a home on 81 acres, and there is not a single non-QM wholesale lender that will touch this property due to the large acreage the home sits on. The Veterans Affairs Administration will allow VA loans on large acreage if the property is not a working farm. In this thread, I like to go over financing a home that sits on acreage, what a working farm is, what the definition of a hobby farm is, and the loan options homeowners who want to buy or refinance on a home with acreage have. Luckily, I have a super cool client who is working with me on getting these obstacles answered. I have not yet encountered a single wholesale lender who will finance a first or second mortgage on homes larger than 10 acres.

Should You Cancel Credit Cards Before Applying for a Mortgage? Is this a good idea? OR, is it better to just pay them down?

Gunner is a very smart dog. He’s been humanlike since I got him. When he was a baby, he gets off the bed and goes to the hardwood floor and lays there spread eagle since it is cooler there. Now, he squeezes next to my side of the bed to get face first in my fan I have next to my pillow. Here’s a picture and a small video clip
