Today is "Own Your Home Day". It really has a great ring to it, but don't assume that owning a home is the right thing for you right now. The idea that renting is 'throwing away money' is not accurate in every situation. There are closing costs when buying a home, maintenance costs, and the amortization schedule of a mortgage that can make the first several years substantially more expensive than renting.

I can help walk you through the decision making process to ensure that whichever decision you make is the one that is best for you!

Deciding whether to rent or purchase a home is a major life decision.

"There is no such thing as a free lunch." One of the greatest financial statements of all time. This article from Morningstar is a good reminder to always look for where the incentives lay for anyone offering something for apparently nothing. It is my belief and business practice that, you as a client should be informed before any transaction is completed as to the compensation and financial incentives are for the product or service being provided. It is through clear and transparent compensation disclosure that we can best manage potential conflicts of interest.

Most people recognize that free offers aren't. If you receive 60,000 airline miles for obtaining a credit card, the award doesn't come from the goodness of the company's heart. An auto dealer's finance department doesn't offer zero-interest loans without getting something in return. And Publishers C...
