Lower interest rates = LOWER payments or MORE home!

On August 13, 2010, In Market Conditions, By The Gardner Team

Lower interest rates = LOWER payments or MORE home!

With 30 year mortgage rates at the lowest point since 1971, this means big news for home buyers.  In fact, for those who were looking for a home when interest rates were at 5.5%, they can now buy 10% more home should they qualify and lock in at 4.5% and potentially maintain the same monthly payment – contingent upon taxes and insurance.  Now is a great opportunity on so many levels – there’s truly no better time to buy or sell.

Contact your local home selling professionals, The Gardner Team and we’ll put you in touch with our preferred Mortgage Partner.  Together we’ll help you get a loan, find a home and start living!

The Gardner Team – on YOUR team!

Sherwood Relay For Life 2010

On August 6, 2010, In From The Gardner Team, Sherwood Events & News, By The Gardner Team

On your mark, get set, GO! 

This year will mark the 6th annual Relay for Life Event in Sherwood, Oregon.  A fun filled overnight event that will be held this weekend - Saturday, August 7th starting at 10:00 AM and running through Sunday, August 8th at 10:00 AM  at the Sherwood High School Track and Field. 

Team Top Gun: Robin Hood Parade 2010

Relay for Life is the signature community event for the American Cancer Society, and a life changing event that through fundraising, sponsorship, participation and volunteerism we all come together and for one mission: To celebrate, remember, fight back and raise money to support research and programs that make a difference in the fight against cancer. 

As proud community members, The Gardner Team is honored to be Gold Sponsors of this years Relay for Life event in our hometown.  We are also very excited to be a part of “Team Top Gun” who we can’t thank enough for all their committed efforts – our friends and generous team sponsors who are all so amazing and have truly made a difference and this years experience so memorable.

We also want to thank all the people and business who have contributed their time, resources, raised money, and supported ALL the teams out there for this great cause.  And our friend, a cancer survivor who introduced us to Relay for Life in Sherwood in 2005 which we also proudly sponsored as a participant. 

Here’s a quote my team Captain shared, “Cancer is a word, not a sentence” – I believe that.  I also understand first hand it’s something that can happen to anyone at any time.  This is one more reason our family will be out there day and night this weekend and year after year, Relaying for the people we know, the people we love, because we care and because we can.

Here’s to celebrating life, hope and more birthdays across the world.  Here’s to our family and friends of “all” ages who we Relay for.  You know who you are and how much we care,  believe in you and love you!

Rural Housing Gets The Green Light from Congress

Rural Housing Gets The Green Light from Congress

The House of Representatives late Tuesday passed an emergency supplemental appropriations bill that includes a provision to reform and restart the Rural Housing Service single-family guarantee program.

President Obama is expected to sign the measure (H.R. 4899), which includes funding for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as other international and domestic government programs.

The RHS provision authorizes the Agriculture Secretary to increase the upfront premium on RHS backed loans to as much as 3.5% to cover the cost of new loan guarantees and make the program self-funding. The current upfront premium is 2%.

The USDA secretary also has the option of charging a 0.5% annual premium. RHA secretary Tammye Trevino could not reached for comment at press time.

Rep. Paul Kanjorski, D-Pa., was the original sponsor of a bill to increase the premium and free the RHS program from the congressional appropriations process.

In fiscal year 2010, congressional appropriators provided RHS with $12 billion in loan commitment authority and a ‘carry over’ of $1.1 billion in unused authority from the prior year. But RHS exhausted the commitment authority in May, forcing many lenders to stop making government-backed rural housing loans. The new fees should provide RHS with the necessary credit subsidy to guarantee $24 billion worth of loans annually.
