Georgia Real Estate Buyer's Guide

8 Ways To Better Personal Finance

1. Develop a family budget. Instead of budgeting what you’d like to spend, use receipts to create a budget for what you actually spent over the last six months. One advantage of this approach is that it factors in unexpected expenses, such as car repairs, illnesses, etc., as well as predictable costs such as rent.

2. Reduce your debt. Generally speaking, lenders look for a total debt load of no more than 36 percent of income. Since this figure includes your mortgage, which typically ranges between 25 percent and 28 percent of income, you need to get the rest of installment debt—car loans, student loans, revolving balances on credit cards—down to between 8 percent and 10 percent of your total income.

3. Get a handle on expenses. You probably know how much you spend on rent and utilities, but little expenses add up. Try writing down everything you spend for one month. You’ll probably see some great ways to save.

4. Increase your income. It may be necessary to take on a second, part-time job to get your income at a high-enough level to qualify for the home you want.

5. Save for a downpayment. Although it’s possible to get a mortgage with only 5 percent down—or even less in some cases—you can usually get a better rate and a lower overall cost if you put down more. Shoot for saving a 20 percent downpayment.

6. Create a house fund. Don’t just plan on saving whatever’s left toward a downpayment. Instead decide on a certain amount a month you want to save, then put it away as you pay your monthly bills.

7. Keep your job. While you don’t need to be in the same job forever to qualify, having a job for less than two years may mean you have to pay a higher interest rate.

8. Establish a good credit history. Get a credit card and make payments by the due date. Do the same for all your other bills. Pay off the entire balance promptly.

FSBO Facts...And Some Great Resources from REALTOR®.org

I spend a lot of time surfing the web, and when I come across items that I think may be useful to other members to AR...the first thing I think of is creating a post and sharing it with the network. Today was no different, and I stumbled across some great tools on the Realtor.org and Realtor Magazine Online sites that some of you may or may not know about.

More specifically, while thinking about what new, fresh content to add to GA-agent.com the thought came back to me...I remember reading Jim Lee's Post about his approach to helping Mr. & Mrs. FSBO. One of Jim's passages read this:

I offer a FSBO listing service on my website which is designed to make me Mr. Nice Guy to Mr. & Mrs. FSBO and give me 'top of mind' awareness when they come to the realization the odds are against them selling on their own and decide it's time to call in a professional.
http://www.knoxvillemls.com/fsbo.htm

Such a good idea...

A service like this to provide Joe and Jane FSBO some help would be a great way to add content and build traffic by targeting the "fsbo" aspect of keywords. Tie in the FSBO listing service with some facts re-inforcing the benefits of using a REALTOR® to sell your property and your good to go!

Some great content points may include:
