Chess Lofts SAVINGS won’t last forever!

Filed under: SPECIAL OFFER ALERT!, SPECIAL SAVINGS ALERT!, South Loop News — jkarlik @ 6:43 am

Chess Lofts, located in the south loop, began specials last month and many are cashing in on the huge savings! Over a dozen homes sold quickly when the developer, of these heavily upgraded loft units, were ALL given ONE PRICE for each unit type. Living on the 3rd or 7th floor, with or without a lake and city view, was up to the buyer at incredible pricing. If you are looking for a great deal, it would be wise to visit the sales center, before you miss out! You can call the sales center at 312.225.1300, for more information or to schedule your showing.

Current Mortgage Rates Increasing Affordability

Filed under: SPECIAL OFFER ALERT!, SPECIAL SAVINGS ALERT!, Website News — admin @ 9:25 am

Everyday I get a new e-blast or hear an advertisement promoting how low interest rates currently are and how they will not remain that way forever.  While you can conjecture all day long about how long these low rates will last the fact that these rates are at historic lows can NOT be argued.  These low rates make owning a home much more affordable.

Take a $250,000 condo where you put 20% ($50K) down.  Assuming you secure a 4.5% 30 year fixed rate your monthly payment will be approximately $1,023 per month.  Now assume your interest rate jumps to 6% suddenly your payment becomes $1,210 per month – an increase of nearly 20%!!!  If you put less money down the increase in the monthly mortgage payment will be even more substantial.

Point being – if you are in the market for a new home, strike while the iron is hot and take advantage of these historically low interest rates.  The advertisements in this are not misleading.

Tax Credit Extended until Sept 30 2010

Filed under: SPECIAL OFFER ALERT!, SPECIAL SAVINGS ALERT! — admin @ 2:30 pm

The Senate has amended a bill to give homebuyers who were under contract on a home purchase by April 30 an additional three months to close the deal and claim the federal homebuyer tax credit.

Extending the deadline for closing from June 30 to Sept. 30 would allow lenders more time to clear a backlog of 180,000 homebuyers nationwide, said amendment sponsor Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.

The amendment to HR 4213, the “American Jobs and Closing Tax Loopholes Act of 2010″ — which primarily extends unemployment insurance benefits — was approved in a vote on Wednesday.
