I've started watching Korean dramas.

Since I couldn't sleep yesterday, I was watching anime on my iPad on the crunchyroll app.  Then I realized that there was a ton of Korean dramas on there that I should probably started watching, so now I'm halfway through Coffee Prince.  I've been meaning to get into them for a while now.  I just never got around to downloading them.  Knowing me, I'll probably be spending the next week of my life in my room watching this shit.

FHA refinance of Borrowers in Negative Equity Positions

If you have an FHA loan this might help, certain guidelines exist read below to get the gist.

 

In an effort to help homeowners who owe more on their homes than they’re currently worth, the government will initiate its “short refinance” program on Tuesday, September 7, 2010.

According to an August 6 Mortgagee Letter released by HUD (click here to download the entire letter), the program will allow “borrowers who are current on their mortgage to qualify for an FHA refinance loan provided that the lender or investor writes off the unpaid principal balance of the original first lien mortgage by at least 10 percent.”

While lender consent is required and program participation voluntary, the FHA has stated the program could modify between 500,000 and 1.5 million upside-down mortgages.

Following are a few of the eligibility requirements detailed in the Mortgagee Letter:

  1. Homeowner must have negative equity, be current on the existing mortgage, and have a FICO score greater than or equal to 500
  2. It must be for the homeowner’s primary residence
  3. Existing loan can’t be FHA-insured
  4. First lien holder must write off at least 10 percent of the unpaid principal balance
  5. Refinanced mortgage must have a loan-to-value ratio (LTV) no greater than 97.75 percent
  6. Second liens must be re-subordinated so the new loan does not exceed a combined LTV of 115 percent

Because of this last requirement, this program may have difficulty when confronted with situations involving second lien holders.

PSA Security Network® Announces Project Financing Program

 

WESTMINSTER, CO – September 7, 2010 –Today PSA Security Network® announced a project financing program in conjunction with Integrator Support® and Susquehanna Commercial Finance®.  This program provides systems integrators new options to gain additional business.  By enabling end-users to acquire the latest technology with flexible payment structures, no down payment and the ability to preserve their credit lines, this project financing program benefits all parties.

Susquehanna Project Financing can include equipment, labor, warranties, maintenance and even monitoring. End-users simply pay one monthly payment for all related services. Integrators collect upon invoicing, and progressive payments can be arranged. This program is not a lease, but is a true finance that allows customers to pre-pay with no penalty after one year, clearly communicates the interest rate, and the end-user owns the equipment at the end of the finance term.

“This is a new way to think about our industry,” said Bill Bozeman, president and CEO of PSA.  “Security integrators have always struggled with cash flow and project sticker shock, this program not only gives the end-user flexibility but provides the integrator the ability to continue the business relationship.”

The sought-after managed-services business model that generates recurring monthly revenue (RMR) is another key component of this program.  Until now, the burglar alarm model that offers end-users a low upfront cost and generates a predictable recurring revenue stream has been unattainable for the systems integration community.  The higher costs of video surveillance and access control systems have prohibited integrators from self-financing installation and equipment charges.

This program, along with Integrator Support’s dealer program, simplifies the implementation of RMR generation for integrators. The combination of project financing with remote video surveillance monitoring, hosted access control, and/or other managed services allows systems integrators to competitively market RMR-generating services through monthly payments and ensures they get paid on time.

“We are honored to have been chosen as the preferred finance company for PSA Security Network and Integrator Support.   Our role is to work with PSA’s system integrators and customers to find the best solution for them,” said Donna Wesemann, CLP, Vice President of Sales, Susquehanna Commercial Finance.  “We look forward to working with the company’s integrators and customers to find the right finance products that will best help them to maintain or increase cash flow so they can run the most efficient business possible.”

Kim – Day 248; 117 to Go

The official end of the summer season was marked today, with perfect weather, great barbeque food and lots of friends and family.  It was a different kind of summer for me. I didn’t make it to the beach very often and my children are getting a little older and a lot more independent so I was much less of an activity director and more of a check-up-on-them to see what they are up to while I’m working kind of mom.  All in all though there were maybe not as many family activities, but the ones we had were good ones.   We are now all starting new adventures and setting new goals for the coming school year.  We all have a feeling of hope and anticipation for something good in our near future.  We’re not able to pinpoint it exactly but we know it is coming.  Knowing is the beginning of all good things that come our way.  My daily inspired thoughts.

The Core phases of the TRX Golf Conditioning Circuit consists of three components which include flexibility, strength, and conditioning. Flexibility is phase one, followed by phase two of strength, and thirdly conditioning which incorporates all phases during the final training weeks. Jessie states “Training through the three phases, flexibility, strength and conditioning each golfer or player will increase their club swing and accuracy, decreasing fatigue and keeping strength to the last tee.”There are two programs used effectively with the TRX Golf Conditioning Circuit, either in group sessions (varying from 4-10) or individual sessions. Individual sessions meet twice a week for fifteen weeks. Group sessions are 6 weeks long and meet once a week. Group sessions are going on now, at True Fitness Studio on Wednesday nights at 6 pm. The owner and founder of True Personal Fitness, Jessie Yodice is offering a free demonstration of the TRX Golf Conditioning System at the studio or your club, if interested please call Jessie at 843-602-3330.
