How To Become A Millionaire

To become a millionaire first set the goal. Eliminate all credit card debt. Start a systematic savings plan buying index mutual funds, and fixed income funds. Take advantage of your employers 401k plan and maximize it. Invest in a ROTH or traditional IRA every year. This year the limits are $5000 per person for a married couple. In other words $10,000 can grow tax deferred. Send extra money toward your mortgage principal each month. Track you expenses. Make a budget. Find a book on how other millionaires became millionaires. If all this fails marry a rich person.

Jobs

We are talking to a lot of working couples lately who have one spouse laid off. Nearly 1 of 10 in the state is laid off or unemployed. Naturally for many people if they normally qualified for a mortgage with two incomes it may be more difficult or impossible to qualify with one income. In some cases we can actually use unemployment compensation to qualify an applicant for a purchase or refinance. Naturally, in a time of rising unemployment cutting expenses is a top priority. Since 30 year fixed rate mortgages are at 5% or below now is the time to lower your expenses while you still can. Sound advice we think.

Five Reasons To Buy Today

This an unprecedented time in our nation's history. The government is paying you $8000 to buy a house as long as you close by November 30, 2009. The selection of homes has never been higher meaning you won't have to get into a bidding war once you find the home you like. Sellers are more willing than ever to pay your closing costs. Rates are as low as they have been since 1971. There is less competition among buyers and fewer Realtors and Loan officers so chances are the professionals who will work with you are seasoned veterans and can help make the process easy for you.

If you need any more reasons and there are plenty please let us know. We would be happy to point out the benefits of home ownership anytime.
