Today’s meeting with Yvonne Schinzel has been rescheduled to Tuesday, August 8th, due to severe storms by Yvonne at 2 pm CDT. Important meeting. We will go over TBD Underwriting Pre-Approvals and Down Payment Assistance programs. TBD underwriting is when the borrower’s file is submitted without a property and is fully underwritten by a mortgage underwriter and a conditional loan approval is issued. It is like a loan commitment without the property. Once the borrower gets the property, the real estate purchase contract is submitted to the same underwriter. The property is then underwritten, the appraisal is ordered and reviewed, and the clear to close is issued. I used to do this all the time, and it is a game changer. Almost like a cash offer, and sellers love it. We have our preferred wholesale lending partner Christian Sorenson at EPM with a forgivable down payment assistance program, which is our best DPA loan program. Still, the maximum DTI is 48.99/48.99, and only borrower paid. Cameron LeClair from the Lender is our second preferred lender of choice, but the down payment is a non-forgivable, full 46.9%/56.9% DTI with approve/eligible but the borrower needs 680 FICO, which is weeding out a lot of people. On the other hand, Yvonne has a DPA non-forgivable program with a minimum 600 FICO, and a debt-to-income ratio can go up to 46.9%/56.9%. Lender paid compensation.

Inflation has been skyrocketing like never before in history. Home prices are at historic highs. Mortgage rates are almost at 8.0% with no signs of increasing. Rents are increasing every year but wages has not gone up. If anything, wages are decreasing and by no means keeping up with Inflation. What’s in the horizon? I feel bankruptcy rates will increase like never before.

A house in South Carolina follows a series of steps similar to buying real estate in many other states. Here’s a general outline of the process:
-
Assess Your Finances: Before you begin searching for a house, it’s essential to evaluate your financial situation. Review your credit score, calculate how much you can afford for a down payment and monthly mortgage payments, and consider additional costs like closing expenses, property taxes, and insurance.
-
Get Pre-approved for a Mortgage: This step involves approaching a mortgage lender to get pre-approved for a loan. Pre-approval will give you an idea of the loan amount you qualify for, which can help in your house search and make your offer more credible to sellers.
-
Find a Real Estate Agent: Engage a reputable real estate agent experienced in the South Carolina housing market. A skilled agent can assist you in finding properties that meet your criteria, negotiate with sellers, and guide you through the entire process.
-
House Hunting: Work with your real estate agent to search for homes that match your requirements and budget. Visit potential properties to assess their condition and consider location, neighborhood, schools, and amenities.
-
Make an Offer: Once you find a house you like, work with your real estate agent to draft a written offer to purchase the property. This offer will include the price you’re willing to pay, the proposed terms and conditions, and any contingencies you may have (e.g., home inspection, financing).
-
Negotiation and Acceptance: The seller may accept your offer outright, or they may negotiate the terms until both parties reach an agreement. Once you and the seller sign the purchase agreement, you’ll proceed with the home-buying process.
-
Home Inspection: After accepting your offer, conducting a home inspection is crucial. Hire a licensed home inspector to examine the property thoroughly for any issues or potential problems.
-
Appraisal and Financing: Your lender will likely require a home appraisal to ensure the property’s value matches the loan amount. Simultaneously, you’ll work with your lender to finalize your mortgage and complete all necessary paperwork for financing.
-
Title Search and Insurance: A title company will perform a title search to ensure no outstanding liens or claims on the property. Additionally, you’ll want to secure title insurance to protect yourself from any unforeseen title issues.
-
Closing: During the closing, you’ll sign all the necessary paperwork, including the mortgage documents and the deed. You’ll also pay the closing costs, typically including fees for various services, taxes, and insurance.
-
Possession: After the closing, you’ll receive the keys to your new home and officially become the owner.
It’s important to note that real estate processes can vary slightly depending on the specific area and local regulations. Working with a knowledgeable real estate agent and other professionals will ensure a smoother, more informed experience throughout the home-buying journey.

I grew up in a concrete jungle, with buildings everywhere and playgrounds of cement. There are always rules regarding playgrounds: no jumping from slides or see-saws, etc. Beyond those rules, there are street, unspoken rules that must be followed. The inner city game is basketball. I’ve played on many teams and coached my son through elementary school and into high school. We had park rules and home court rules. I was never that good a basketball player; I had white man’s disease; and I can’t jump. On a good day, I could touch the rim. The first rule was that whoever was on the court first had to play in every game until they lost. I’d get there early to call “home court,” hoping the guys that should be up were good and I could continue my possession of the court. Even if you played in the South Bronx or Harlem, these rules were adhered to.
Greenwich Village has a main subway stop: West 4th Street. The cross street is 6th Avenue.
One block south is West 3rd Street, where there is a basketball court. Guys, professional players would travel downtown to play ball. I remember Dick Barnet of the Knicks, and Kareem Abdul Jabar was a local boy named Lew Alcindor. He went to Power Memorial Academy High School.
I tried my strategy early one Saturday morning on the West 3rd Street courts. Everything went fine the first few games; our team won the first two games, and that was it. When the big boys arrived, we were wiped off the court. To this day, the Saturday basketball games are a tourist attraction. They have also formed a league, “West 3rd Street Basketball League.” Teams have sponsors: Nike and Pepsi. I would have to wake up pretty early to play in that league.

There is no doubt that Joe Biden is the worst President of the United States and one of the dumbest, if not the dumbest, human being ever to head the Oval Office. I can give you an overview of some of the economic policies and initiatives that were in place during the Biden administration up to my last update.
When Joe Biden took office as the 46th President of the United States in January 2021, he faced significant economic challenges, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s ongoing impact on the economy. His administration’s economic agenda aimed to address the public health crisis and support economic recovery.
Some key points of the Biden administration’s economic policies up to September 2021 included:
-
COVID-19 Response: Biden prioritized a comprehensive approach to combat the pandemic, including mass vaccination campaigns, expanded testing, and providing financial aid to individuals and businesses affected by the pandemic.
-
American Rescue Plan Act: In March 2021, the administration passed the American Rescue Plan Act, a $1.9 trillion economic relief package. This legislation included direct payments to individuals, extended unemployment benefits, aid to state and local governments, funds for COVID-19 vaccine distribution, and support for small businesses.
-
Infrastructure and Jobs Plan: Biden proposed an infrastructure plan that aimed to invest heavily in infrastructure projects, such as transportation, broadband, and clean energy. The proposed plan also sought to create jobs and boost economic growth.
-
Tax Policy: The Biden administration proposed raising taxes on corporations and high-income individuals to fund various social programs and infrastructure investments. The goal was to address income inequality and generate revenue to support government initiatives.
It’s essential to remember that the economy’s performance is influenced by various factors, including global economic conditions, geopolitical events, and other policy changes. Therefore, I recommend checking more recent sources to obtain an up-to-date and comprehensive assessment of the Biden economy as of August 2023.

Buying a House in Alabama, how are the property tax and homeowners insurance
When buying a house in Alabama, you will benefit from relatively low property taxes and moderate homeowners insurance rates compared to many other states in the U.S.
Property Taxes:
Alabama has some of the lowest property tax rates in the country. The average effective property tax rate is approximately 0.33% of a home’s market value, placing it among the states with the lowest property tax rates. For example, if you own a home valued at $200,000, your annual property tax bill would be around $660. However, property tax rates can vary by county within Alabama, so it’s important to check the specific rates in the county where you plan to buy (Tax-Rates.org) (Tax-Rates.org).
Homeowners Insurance:
Homeowners insurance in Alabama can vary widely depending on factors such as the location of the property, the age and condition of the home, and the level of coverage you choose. On average, homeowners insurance in Alabama tends to be higher than the national average due to the risk of natural disasters like hurricanes and tornadoes. The average annual premium for homeowners insurance in Alabama is around $1,300, but this can be higher for homes in coastal areas prone to hurricanes (Tax-Rates.org).
Overall, while property taxes are relatively low, it’s wise to budget for potentially higher homeowners insurance costs, especially if your property is located in an area susceptible to severe weather. For the most accurate and personalized information, consider contacting local tax authorities and insurance providers in Alabama.

Alabama Property Taxes By County - 2024
The Median Alabama property tax is $398.00, with exact property tax rates varying by location and county.

What do you think will happen if Kamala Harris picks Michelle Obama as her vice presidential runner mate? Old Joe will be 81 come November, do you really think he will run again. It ain’t gonna happen! Liberals control the west coast from San Diego to Seattle. Why place liberals in charge to continue control in these area plagued by homelessness and crime? They believe that housing is a “God given right and the government should furnish these homes. This is called “West Coast Liberaism.” California and Oregon lead the way with homelessness. Is their answer to supply homes to these people? Drug overdose is on the rise.
I love the west coast, I spent 24 years there, some areas are absolutely breathtaking. I watched as liberals gave everything away. When Arnie, the governator was in office, life was bearable. Gun violence is down due to stringent gun laws, the few people arrested for gun issues are moved through the courts and released through the liberal system. Oregon leads in mental health unawareness.
This is a possibility, I believe liberalism will hurt people more then help them. If the “West Coast Liberalism,” is allowed to spread, it will spread across the country like wild fire. Some states will never accept this form of government. Mostly Northen states and Southern states wont comply with the mandates, don’t mess with Texas! I read a story about a kindergarten school in Oregon installing condoms in both and boy’s and girl’s restrooms. Do we really want this?

Former Rio Arriba County Sheriff James Lujan, aged 60, was sentenced to three years in prison followed by one and a half years of probation after being convicted of two felony charges: aiding a felon and intimidating a witness. Lujan was found guilty of helping a former Española City Councilor evade police after a high-speed chase in 2017 and directing a deputy to conceal his actions. This conviction followed a retrial after an initial jury failed to reach a verdict. Lujan resigned from his position shortly after the conviction.

“Extending professional courtesy” on a traffic stop typically refers to law enforcement officers giving leniency to other officers or individuals in related professions when stopped for traffic violations. This practice is somewhat controversial and varies widely depending on jurisdiction and individual officer discretion. Here are some key points regarding this practice:
What It Involves
- Identification: The stopped individual might identify themselves as a law enforcement officer or related professional, sometimes showing a badge or other form of identification.
- Leniency: The officer conducting the stop might choose to issue a warning instead of a ticket or fine, or let the individual go without any formal action.
Reasons for Extending Courtesy
- Professional Respect: Officers may feel a sense of camaraderie or mutual respect towards fellow officers.
- Understanding of Job Challenges: An appreciation of the stresses and risks associated with law enforcement might lead to more lenient treatment.
- Internal Policies: Some departments might have unwritten policies or cultural norms encouraging such leniency.
Ethical and Legal Considerations
- Fairness: Critics argue that this practice can undermine public trust in law enforcement by creating a perception of bias or unequal treatment under the law.
- Department Policies: Some departments explicitly prohibit extending professional courtesy to ensure all individuals are treated equally.
- Legal Implications: There can be legal risks if leniency leads to subsequent incidents or if it’s viewed as official misconduct.
Examples of Guidelines
- New York City Police Department (NYPD): NYPD has specific guidelines prohibiting officers from extending or accepting professional courtesy to ensure fairness and equality.
- Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD): LAPD policies also emphasize the importance of impartial enforcement of laws, discouraging leniency based on professional connections.
Public Perception and Trust
- Transparency: To maintain public trust, many departments stress the importance of transparency and equal treatment in all enforcement actions.
- Accountability: Ensuring that all officers are held to the same standards as the public can help build community trust and accountability.
While extending professional courtesy is a practice rooted in respect among officers, it faces significant scrutiny due to concerns about fairness and public trust. Law enforcement agencies often strive to balance professional camaraderie with the need to uphold the law impartially. For more detailed information on this topic, you can refer to the guidelines and policies of specific police departments or legal analyses from reputable sources like legal journals and law enforcement ethics publications.

Financing a new or used car typically involves securing a loan to cover the cost of the vehicle, which you then repay over a set period of time. Here’s a general process you can follow:
1. **Assess your budget**: The first step to financing a car is understanding what you can afford. This includes considering the monthly payments you can manage, as well as the down payment you can afford to make. You’ll also want to consider other costs, like fuel, insurance, maintenance, and registration fees.
2. **Check your credit score**: Your credit score will impact the interest rates you’re offered on a loan. The better your credit, the lower the interest rate will likely be.
3. **Compare pre-approval offers**: Before you start shopping, get pre-approved for a loan from various lenders. This will give you a good idea of what kind of interest rates and terms you can expect. Banks, credit unions, and online lenders can all be good sources for pre-approval.
4. **Choose your car**: Once you know your budget, you can start shopping for a car. When selecting a car, be sure to consider both the initial cost and the long-term costs of owning that particular make and model.
5. **Negotiate price**: Don’t accept the first price you’re given. Do some research on the car you want, negotiate the price, and be prepared to walk away if you can’t get a deal you’re comfortable with.
6. **Choose your loan**: After you’ve chosen a car and negotiated the price, you can finalize your loan. You can choose to go with one of the pre-approval offers you received, or you can see what kind of financing the dealership offers. Be sure to compare the interest rates, loan terms, and fees of all your options.
7. **Close the deal**: Once you’ve chosen your loan, you’ll close the deal with the lender and the dealership. This usually involves signing a lot of paperwork, so make sure you read everything carefully before signing. Ask questions if there’s anything you don’t understand.
8. **Make your payments**: Once the deal is done, you’ll start making payments on your loan. It’s very important to make these payments on time each month to maintain your credit score and avoid late fees.
Remember, when financing a car, you don’t want to stretch yourself too thin. Make sure you can comfortably afford the payments and that you’re getting a good deal on both the car and the loan.

Here’s how you can remember the number of days in each month:
– January: 31 days
– February: 28 days in a common year and 29 days in a leap year
– March: 31 days
– April: 30 days
– May: 31 days
– June: 30 days
– July: 31 days
– August: 31 days
– September: 30 days
– October: 31 days
– November: 30 days
– December: 31 days
Here’s a traditional rhyme to help remember this:
“Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November;
All the rest have thirty-one,
Save February, with twenty-eight days clear,
And twenty-nine each leap year.”

What are my best mortgage options in Wisconsin for first-time homebuyers
Dome general information on mortgage options for first-time homebuyers in Wisconsin. Remember that mortgage options and interest rates can vary, so it’s always best to research and consult with lenders to get the most current and personalized information for your situation.
-
FHA Loans: The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) offers loans with lower down payment requirements and more lenient credit score criteria, making them popular among first-time buyers. With an FHA loan, you may be able to qualify for a down payment as low as 3.5% of the home’s purchase price.
-
VA Loans: If you are a current or former military member, you might be eligible for a VA loan, which the Department of Veterans Affairs backs. VA loans often have competitive interest rates and require no down payment.
-
USDA Loans: If you are buying a home in a rural or suburban area, you might be eligible for a USDA loan, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture backs. These loans offer low or no down payment options and come with competitive interest rates.
-
Conventional Loans: Conventional mortgages are not backed by government agencies like FHA, VA, or USDA. Private lenders offer them and typically require a higher credit score and a larger down payment, but they may have more flexible terms and competitive interest rates.
-
First-Time Homebuyer Programs: Wisconsin may have state or local programs specifically designed to assist first-time homebuyers with down payment assistance, closing cost assistance, or lower interest rates. These programs can vary based on where you are buying your home.
To find the best mortgage options for your situation, consider the following steps:
-
Check Your Credit: Review your credit report and score. A higher credit score can lead to better mortgage offers and interest rates.
-

Shop Around: Contact multiple lenders to compare their mortgage products, interest rates, fees, and terms. This way, you can find the most suitable offer for you.
