$75 Million Dollar Handyman’s Special

Check out this article – a 90,000 square foot home is up for sale in Windermere Florida. It has a 20 car garage, 3 pools, and indoor roller rink and 23 bathrooms. It looks kind of ugly to me, but what do I know?

Sounds like too much work for me! :)

Why Americans Get Ripped off on Mortgage Loans

An interesting article I found on the Wall Street Journal. Your loan will be around for a good long while after you purchase or refinance your existing home loan. It’s always a good idea to really do your homework when considering mortgage options. I have a number of lenders I work with who I trust to thoroughly explain your loan options and make sure they are looking out for your best interests. Contact me if you would like to speak with any of them.
