Twin Cities Real Estate News Let's talk about the Twin Cities Real Estate Market. I will post helpful links and answer questions about real estate or mortgages. I live and work in Minnesota, so some of my ideas may focus specifically on Minnesota real estate or mortgage regulations applicable to our state.
One of the things we do in the Twin Cities is produce a mortgage and real estate show called Dollars & Sense. We've been producing the show for the past 5 years. While it doesn't bring in that much new business, it is a great way to stay in front of past customers-which of course are your best referral sources. Here are our two most recent recorded shows where we discuss the current lending environment and various mortgage loan programs. We cover 100% financing, combo loans, the new first time buyer tax credit, the 700 billion bail out bill, the best type of investment property to purchase today in our opinion, and we offer the viewer a way to get a copy of the book I wrote on investing in real estate entitled "Reality Based" Real Estate Investing. This book is delivered in PDF format as a series of chapters over a series of weeks.

Detractors have been accusing payday loan lenders of being predatory lending institutions, but not many who have had to use their services feel the same way. Many people are thrown off by the mention of the annual percentage rate, or APR that gets frequent circulation. Now, the APR figure that gets mentioned may be true in a very limited context, but how it exactly works doesn't get reported. The rate that gets mentioned is 361% APR, which is enough to scare anyone away. However, to actually get to 361% APR, an individual would have let their loan lapse for an entire year to accrue that much interest. Just like any other service, a payday loan lender will add interest fees to late payments. Look at it this way: If you get a payday loan for $100 on a two week term, you pay $15 to $30 in fees or $115 to $130 in the end for the loan, which works out to 15 – 30% interest. That may seem like a lot, but when compared to a $75 late fee that you would get from making a late mortgage payment that you could avoid by getting a payday loan if you were a hundred dollars or so short on, that $15 - $30 isn't so bad. Also, applying is quick, easy, and approval can be incredibly fast. You can even get your payday loan deposited straight into your bank account through direct deposit within a few hours, and then you can move on with your life. Great convenience for a small price.

Marketing on the TV is one of the best ways to reach millions, but not every realtor can afford this, I think the best way or the best tactic to market is the one you all are doing I mean blogging.
