Log Home Financing?
May 26, 2010
We spent the better part of the day on the phone w/ lenders. We were approved the amount wanted, it was 100 % financing @ 6.850%. Then it came down to the home: Log home, 15 acres, rural area and the lenders pulled out. Reason being: "Not enough surrounding homes" (too rural) and "LOG house". Question: Is there special lenders for log homes? Was this guy just tired of working with us for the day? Would they have continued with us w/ 20% down? Home is in Colo., subdivisions are close by, growth rate for area has BIG potential, we don’t plan on farming/ranching the land. Any educated/professional opinion/advise would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Most lenders won’t do Log Homes. You should have told them up front and not wasted their time and your time. They may have been able to recommend another lender but if you wasted his day and ticked him off I wouldn’t help either.

Home Refinancing
May 21, 2010
Home refinancing is one way to save you money over interest costs. According to the interest rate on your home financial package, you may find that refinancing your home actually lowers your monthly payment, and the total cost of your home. Interest rates vary through the years, and if you purchased your home during a period of high interest, you may find that refinancing your mortgage can save you a ton of money.
You’ll have to go talk to your bank, and don’t forget online shopping for refinancing packages. There are different financial institutions that may be willing to refinance your home besides your lender. It’s important that you comparison shop on home refinancing packages including interest rates, contract terms, length of contract, as well as foreclosure and variable interest rate plans. Shopping for the best financial package for your home refinancing just makes common sense.
You’ll find a variety of online institutions that may be willing to refinance your home for less. Not only may they be able to offer you a better interest-rate, but they also may be able to offer you lower closing costs, lower loan fees, resulting in a total lower cost for your home. These online companies do not have the overhead of your downtown financial institutions and you might just be surprised how easy it may be to refinance your home online.
Make sure you read all the fine print in any refinancing package you’re considering and make sure if it’s online that it’s with a reputable company. Refinancing online is easy, you’ll fill out the same type of applications you will for your bank, but you’ll do it all online and even submit it online. You’ll then wait for an answer as to whether you’ve been approved and the occurring interest-rate or term contracts. It’s as easy as that to refinance your home online, a great way to shop for the best refinance rates.
People need to refinance their home for a variety of reasons besides just lowering their interest rate. They may be in financial difficulty; they may need to pay off a bunch of other debts, or perhaps are taking advantage of home equity and lower interest rates. Either way you look at it; make sure that you thoroughly understand your refinancing contract, home refinancing interest rates, balloon payments, foreclosure clauses and a variety of other terms in the home refinancing contract. If you don’t understand your contract, seek out professional help until you do.
Refinancing your home and your home mortgage refinancing plans can vary greatly according to your credit history, how long you had your mortgage, and what your home is worth. Be sure to shop around for the best home refinancing package you can find, and don’t forget your online resources.

Do You Have A Good Garden Plan
May 21, 2010
An attractive garden is a dream which requires proper planning and careful nurturing. To create a beautiful landscape around your dream home you need basic garden plans to begin with. These garden plans are generally provided by a professional garden planner or landscape designer.
The garden plans can be of many types. You can plan for more than just beautifying your garden, your Garden plans can also be made to decide the theme of the garden. Some of the popular garden plans are:
* Garden for full sun
* Garden for shade
* Corner of grasses
* Corner of shrubs
* Corner of perennials
* Island bed
* Privacy garden
* Butterfly garden
* Fragrant garden
* Vegetable garden
* Bird-friendly garden
* Clay soil garden
Garden plans give an aesthetic dimension to the garden along with its basic theme. Color schemes, quality and variety of plants, height of the plants, border, flooring etc are done to give the garden its uniqueness. The color scheme of the garden is created blending the different colored and textured plants. The plants are also selected according to their height which creates the contour of the garden and the skyline of the garden. Garden plans also include the kind of plants to be used according to the theme chosen. For example a fragrant garden will contain flower plants or the bird-friendly gardens will have the high trees for the birds to reside. The butterfly garden may have the plants that caterpillars feed on.
It is very important that the garden plans are both beautiful and emotionally restorative. A garden can provide a visual, perfumed, sound and tactile, sensory experience. The garden design needs to compliment the home and connect the interiors with the external environment, making the most of the available usable areas. Master planners know that the selection of plants is of equal importance along with their strategic placement on the landscape. Garden plans also include the planning of the garden gates, arbors, gazebo as well as garden furniture.
Modular design and a unique frame layout can make a simple garden gazebo. The garden gazebo is the perfect place to relax or to hold family dinners, weddings, and other special events. A gazebo in the garden plan ensures a favorite spot to unwind. Another important criterion for the garden is its gate. An attractive gate makes a warm welcome for guests. The gate combined with a proper floor or patio definitely draws one outdoors. The proper garden furniture also comes under the garden plans. The furniture is decided according to the theme of the garden. For example an arbor is inevitable for a bird-friendly garden. With a canopy one can relax in the shade of an arbor garden even during the sunniest days. A greenhouse can be created to protect the outdoor plants from damage by frost and cold weather.
