  • Navigating Finances and Home Buying: Expert Insights from Carl Holman
    Carl advises that “creating a budget together encourages teamwork,” but its structure should fit the couple's lifestyle. He notes separate finances can cause distance if communication falters. On home buying, Carl suggests it depends on financial goals: single buyers have control, married couples ease financing, and partners should consider co-ownership agreements.
  • Key Factors for Removing FHA Mortgage Insurance Revealed
    Carl highlights that the origination date is crucial. For loans post-June 3, 2013, insurance removal is tough unless a 10% down payment was made. Pre-2013 loans may cancel insurance when the balance hits 78% of the property value after five years of payments.
  • Understanding Mortgage Payment Increases: Insights from A&D Mortgage
    Carl explains that payment increases often stem from "reassessed property taxes, insurance hikes, escrow shortfalls, and interest rate changes." He advises monitoring escrow statements and understanding loan terms, especially for adjustable-rate and interest-only loans. Late fees can also contribute to higher payments. Awareness of these factors can help homeowners manage unexpected costs.
