Here are the most common mortgage options with an explanation of how each works.
Fixed Rate Mortgages:
Fixed rate mortgages are loans where the interest rate for your mortgage stays the same for the entire term of the loan. Fixed rate mortgages are available in terms of 10 to 30 years with 15 and 30 year terms being the most common. Generally, the longer the term of the loan the higher the interest rate. With a fixed rate mortgage your interest rate and principal and interest payment will never change.
Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM):
Adjustable rate mortgages are loans where the interest rate on your mortgage is subject to change at some point during your loan term. Adjustable rate loans are available with repayment terms of up to 30 years in most cases. However, the interest rate on your loan may only be fixed for a period of 1,3,5, 7 or 10 years depending on the option you choose. NOTE: With an adjustable rate loan your interest rate and monthly payments can increase.
First Time Buyer Programs:
First Time Buyers have numerous options available to them. We will help you to determine the options that will best fit your needs. In addition we are pleased to participate with the Michigan State Housing Development Authorities Home Loan Programs as well as FHA, VA and the USDA Rural Housing (RD) home loan programs.
Executive (Jumbo) Mortgages:
Executive loans are mortgage loans in excess of $424,100. These products can vary significantly from lender to lender. We offer executive mortgages under our fixed and adjustable rate products at very competitive rates and terms.
Lot – Vacant Land Mortgages:
We offer financing of vacant land for clients who have the intention to eventually build on the land. Please call for details on our current product offerings.
Investment Property Mortgages:
We offer financing on 1-4 unit properties under both our fixed and adjustable rate programs. Down payment and options can vary depending on a number of factors. Call us for complete program details.
Renovation Mortgages:
So you found the perfect home but it needs some improvements. Our renovation loan programs allow you to purchase your dream home and financed improvements as part of your home purchase. Please call for complete details on this program.
FHA/VA Home Loans:
FHA loans have flexible down payment options and most VA home loans require no down payment at all. These programs tend to be more flexible in qualifying then some traditional mortgage programs. To find out if these options are right for you, give us a call.
NO Monthly PMI Options:
We are pleased to offer mortgage options that allow for NO Monthly PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance). These options are available on our fixed & adjustable rate mortgages. Please call us for all of the details on this program. NOTE: All loans with a down payment of less then 20% require some form of mortgage insurance. Some loan structures allow for the elimination of monthly PMI insurance when a premium is paid in a lump sum at the time of closing or is paid by the lender. Depending on your individual circumstances some options may be more favorable then others.
Special Portfolio Loan Programs:
If you have a special or unique situation contact our office to discover the many options that may be available to you as part of our portfolio loan programs. These programs are meant to help qualified buyers puchase a home even if they don't fit the box for a standard loan approval.

Motor racing-Mercedes now the underdogs, says Wolff
MONACO, May 29 Once-dominant Mercedes are now the underdogs in the Formula One title race, team boss Toto Wolff said after rivals Ferrari took a resounding one-two in Monaco on Sunday.
* Briatore steps down, remains shareholder
* Quits to focus energy on other areas
* Steel tycoon Mittal increases stake in club (adds details, quotes, byline)
By Tom Pilcher
LONDON, Feb 19 Flavio Briatore stepped down as chairman of Championship (second division) team Queens Park Rangers on Friday, the club said in a statement.
"I'm proud to have helped save this historical club and to have contributed in paving the way to its future success," the 59-year-old Italian told QPR's website (www.qpr.co.uk).
Flamboyant former Renault team boss Briatore has spent almost 2-1/2 years at the club, having joined forces with Formula One supremo Ecclestone and steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal to take it over in 2007 and help bring financial stability.
However, results on the pitch have been disappointing with QPR 19th in the standings, just one point above the relegation zone having lost their last five league games.
"Although my commitment to the club remains unchanged, I now feel the need to focus my energies into other fields," added Briatore, who will remain a QPR shareholder.
Briatore, who was banned for life from Formula One after his involvement in a plot to rig the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix but got the decision overturned, is likely to face an appeal by the International Automobile Federation (FIA).
Ishan Saksena, previously the west London club's managing director, is taking over as chairman of QPR Holdings Limited while former club chairman Gianni Paladini, who became sporting director when Briatore arrived, will resume his former duties.
Mittal's family has taken the opportunity to increase its shareholding in the club.

Beer & golf
Arbor Parks & Recreation. "More people are hanging out here after they play." Compared to last year, food and beverage sales were up 157 percent in July and climbed 256 percent in August. Golf rounds are up, too, Saam says: by 40 percent in July and 85 percent in August, compared to 2007.
A beverage cart now tours the course, and on weekends a new outdoor grilling station serves burgers, brats, and hot dogs. The clubhouse's eating space, though small, boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and a wraparound patio overlooking manicured greens framed by wooded parkland where red-tailed hawks have recently taken up residence. Saam says that over the winter the city will replace the carpet and move the registration counter, giving diners an unobstructed view of the course.

Knee injuries are among the top five reasons people visit an orthopedic surgeon for treatments, which include 719,000 total knee replacements performed annually in the United States. Now, new research reveals underlying biomechanics that may be involved in meniscus fibrocartilage function as well as dysfunction and could guide novel treatments for some of the most debilitating and costly orthopedic problems in the U.S., including meniscus tears and age-related joint degeneration.
The knee meniscus is a piece of cartilage between the leg bones that cushions and stabilizes the joint, protecting the bones from wear and tear. In studies of samples from cows and humans, bioengineers funded by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering identified small patches of non-fibrous "islands" known as microdomains in the knee fibrocartilage that makes up the meniscus. Samples from older animals and humans consistently had larger microdomains. The discovery opens the way for a more detailed examination of fibrocartilage microstructure and how changes at the cellular and molecular levels contribute to orthopedic health and disease.
"This is impressive and important work," says Rosemarie Hunziker, Ph.D., Director of the NIBIB Program in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, "both in the fundamental discovery and the fact that they rapidly built a model to study it." The discovery by researchers at the University of Delaware and the University of Pennsylvania and subsequent development of a bioengineered model of the tissue are reported in the January 4 issue of Nature Materials.
Non-fibrous patches of microdomains grow with age and mechanical stress
The group examined cow knee tissue samples spanning from fetal development through adulthood. The microdomains, interspersed within the fibrocartilage of the meniscus, were present at the fetal stage in cow samples and grew larger in size, but not number, as the age of the animal increased. Studies of human samples revealed the same correlation between advanced age and increased size of microdomains.
In addition to the increase in microdomains with age, human donors with higher body mass index also had increases in the size of the microdomains. "Taken together these observations suggested that increased microdomain size might be an adaptive response to handle increased mechanical load accumulating over time or increased pressure on the meniscus in heavier individuals," explains Dawn Elliott, Ph.D. chair of the University of Delaware's Department of Biomedical Engineering and co-senior author of the study. "An important question we immediately had was whether such an adaptation could be pushed to the point where it could also lead to impaired function of knee fibrocartilage."
Investigating structure and function at the micro-level
Studies of cells in the fiber-rich regions of the tissue and in the microdomains revealed the type of information the team looks for: a critical mechano-responsive difference between the flexible fibers and the inflexible microdomains. "There was a distinct change in calcium signaling in response to stretching and increased mechanical loading in cells within the fibrous part of the tissue," explains Robert L. Mauck, Ph.D., Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania and co-senior author of the study, "but in cells in the non-fibrous microdomains, calcium levels remained static -- these cells were not responsive to stretching or increased mechanical loading."
Mauck explains that calcium movement in and out of the cells in response to tissue stretching is a signal for the cells to activate genes and processes that cause regeneration and remodeling of tissue. Conversely, the lack of such a response in the microdomains added evidence to the theory that microdomains could contribute to impaired function, as a knee meniscus with larger microdomains might fall short in its attempt to repair itself in response to stress.
Building tissue-engineered constructs for in-depth study and experimentation
For more detailed studies of the characteristics observed in meniscus samples, the research team engineered knee fibrocartilage in the laboratory. They called their laboratory-made knee fibrocartilage heterogeneous tissue engineered constructs or (hetTECs). "Heterogeneous" refers to the fact that the laboratory-made tissue contained the two elements observed in the native tissue: the fibrous domains interspersed with islands of the non-fibrous microdomains.
Mauck stresses how the different expertise and perspectives of the research team made constructing hetTECs possible. "Dr. Elliott's work in tissue mechanics, essentially drilling down to reveal the micro-level structure of the tissue provides me with the details I need as a biomaterials and tissue engineering scientist to build an accurate tissue engineered model from the ground up."
Extensive testing of the hetTECs demonstrated that they faithfully mimicked the characteristics of the native tissue, including the calcium response to stress in the fibrous areas and the lack of a response by cells in the microdomains. The team is enthusiastic about using the bioengineered hetTECs to answer questions about how the microstructural details relate to the function of knee fibrocartilage.
Mauck explains the utility of the hetTECs. "We now have an in vitro platform to study the mechanobiology of knee tissue in a controlled fashion in the lab. For example, we may find that microdomains are necessary for the proper development of fibrocartilage in the embryo but then become detrimental in aging animals. We are now performing tests that will help us unravel the mechanical details of how the structure relates to function"
But getting back to sore knees, while they are cautious about blaming microdomains for fibrocartilage degeneration without more extensive testing, the team acknowledges the powerful potential of their hetTEC constructs for identifying disease processes at the micro-level and then testing potential treatments that reverse or halt the disease process. Concludes Mauck, "ultimately, we are working to use this type of engineered model to develop new treatments for ailing knees as well as other types of connective tissues."

Who else has noticed that the decline in America and the American way of life is accelerating? Day after day more and more families struggle to put food on the table, to keep a roof over their heads. We are in this situation because we have had successive governments that have totally and utterly failed to invest in the future of this great country. The economy is collapsing because the government supports the profits of a few while the rest of us have to hope for the scraps that fall from their tables. After the Great Depression came World War ll, both took a great toll on our nation but by the latter half of the 40's things had changed. The United States, the American Dream was within the reach of everyone. Kids were encouraged to work hard and achieve the best they could, adults knew there were jobs and that those jobs would enable them to better themselves. Investment in our country was high, infrastructure improvements and investment in industrial and technological industries secured our place as the most forward thinking and advanced nation on the planet. Foreign money flooded in as any company that wanted to be considered a serious player on the world stage set up offices in the Unites States, to have a head office address in New York or Washington or almost any other well-known American city was the way to go. Our manufacturing industries plied their trade around the world keeping unemployment levels low and stability on a personal, corporate, and national level high. What the heck happened? The phrase 'The middle classes are being squeezed' doesn't even start to cover what has happened or what continues to happen to our country. We have infrastructure that hasn't been updated in decades and investment in new projects is non-existent. Our children are dumbed down as the education system becomes more politicised and agenda-ridden and less about the skills that will help them in the future. Companies, including home-grown American ones, have left the United States to set up elsewhere – they have taken with them the jobs that kept families in their homes and able to eat. Whole districts in some of our cities have become wastelands of dereliction and decay as companies stop investing in 'failed' neighborhoods. Why has it all gone bad? Why are we seeing so-called developing nations investing in their countries at a rate we could only dream of? War. That's why. Successive governments have waded into wars and conflicts around the globe, spending trillions of dollars over the years that could have been invested at home. Our leaders have given themselves the job of policing the planet and that's an expensive role to take on and it's a role that has cost us dear. In 'the old days' a government dealt with threats made against it, its citizens or its land. We didn't send in the bombers because you didn't like a foreign leader. We didn't actually go and fight on one side or the other in a civil conflict in another nation. We didn't invade a foreign country unless you had declared war against that nation. We went into foreign countries by invitation of the government of that country or we went in as an invading force. These rules of engagement no longer apply. It seems now if a situation or someone offends the government (or if they have something our government wants), the leaders immediately deploy troops to force them to comply with whatever agenda is the chosen one, all in the name of "spreading freedom". This isn't policing. This isn't spreading freedom or democracy. It's bullying. But when we go to war, there are some people that profit immensely while the rest of us suffer. That's the real reason we are constantly involved in conflicts. (If you haven't yet read Major General Smedley Butler's book, War Is a Racket, it's an absolute must.) This article outlines the few that literally make billions of dollars (the Military Industrial Complex that President Eisenhower warned of in his farewell address) while the rest of us send loved ones off to die, lose primary breadwinners, and watch our economy decline as we're urged to "support America." Screw those people. Are you really interested in dying or sending a loved one off to die so they can get rich? Are you really going to allow yourself to get sucked into their rhetoric? Hillary Clinton clearly said at the last debate she'll cause a war with Russia if she is elected. Read this breakdown of how it will happen. We all know Hillary sold her soul quite some time ago and has made millions of dollars brokering favors when she was Secretary of State. (To learn more about that, either read this or watch this.) Imagine how much she stands to profit from her Military Industrial Complex buddies when she leads us into war again, this time as the President. And at home, our freedoms are rapidly disintegrating At the same time as deciding what other nations can and can't do on their own land we, the citizens of the United States are receiving similar treatment, often within our own homes and on our own rightfully owned land. We are told what we can and cannot do in our homes. We are told what we can and can't grow in our gardens. We […]

After going through 8 large halls and two suitcases of brochures, leaflets and websites as a result, I'm finally ready to post my review of one of the biggest interiors exhibition in Europe Maison & Object in Paris.
There is so much to write about – new trends, styles, colours, designs and everything else related to interiors and design. because there is so much to discuss I decided to split my observations into several categories which I will be posting shortly. Today I will focus on trend number one, which is oversizing. Oversized lamps, chairs, plant pots, furniture. Lighting was especially presenting this trend. Have a look at the photos below.
This large pendant is made by a Dutch company AangenaamXL. They also have large vases and mirrors.
Aren't these stunning for a children's room?
Fatboy stand. Can any lamp get larger than this?
How cool is this vase? Made by AangenaamXL.
