Café 976 - Review of one of the best coffee shops in Pacific Beach, CA Café 976 is the best coffee shop in San Diego to unwind before and after work. The calm ambiance and the smell of freshly brewed coffee would surely melt your stress away. Asides from their wide variety of food and drink selections, they offer “Night Time Specials” from 5 to 7 PM.     While I was at Café 976  I actually visited their official website and I was surprised about the history of the place. The 1920′s beach house located in one of Pacific Beach’s oldest areas was used as a residence, then a school, then an antique shop before it became one of the best coffee shops in Pacific Beach, CA.   Read More: Awesome Dining Experience at Table 926   In closing, if you are looking for the best coffee shop in Pacific B...

It will not be the first time that a buyer accidentally disqualifies their loan before closing! Often we hear of buyers going out and buying furniture or something else on credit, or a new car before closing, or they change jobs or change positions, which unfortunately will now disqualify their loan before closing.

The Bi-Weekly Payment Plan is a convenient mortgage budgeting plan that can help you save thousands of dollars in interest and pay off your mortgage sooner. The biweekly mortgage payment plan is pretty easy to set up, as there are 3 different ways to make payments that will accomplish the same result. Typical Mortgage : 12 Payments Per Year The typical mortgage asks for one payment per month, which equals 12 payments per year. With a 30-year fixed rate mortgage, therefore, 360 payments are required to pay the loan in full. Each mortgage payment is split into two parts — a principal portion and an interest portion. The principal portion is applied to the amount that you owe the bank. This diminishes your remaining loan balance. The interest portion is your cost for borrowing from the ba...

You may have heard the recent FHA press release on November 16th whereby the FHA announced they are increasing their monthly Mortgage Insurance Payments “MIP” again on all new buyers come this spring, but what you may not have heard, is that the FHA is eliminating MIP removal on loans taken out after this spring. What this means is that new buyers will pay FHA “MIP” for the life of the loan now rather than under current rules, whereby if the FHA borrower reaches 22% equity and a minimum of 5 years in the loan, they can remove the MIP. FHA Buyers to Pay MIP for Life of Loan Starting 2013 The FHA just released their 2012 Annual Report to Congress and it was not good, as the FHA suffered a $16.3 billion deficit in 2012. The FHA has never had to request a bailout during its 78 year existenc...

On the heals of a great day for rates yesterday, we've seen tremendous turbulence early in today's trading. Speculation over today's unemployment numbers is the likely culprit. If you're closing a loan in the next few weeks and are still floating, today will likely be pivotal for you.
