Leisure World of Maryland includes among the many one bedroom one bath CO-OP units a model called the Raleigh.  This mid-size home (990 sq ft) comes all on one level, and can be found on either the ground or second floor of garden apartment buildings.  One feature of this model is the two distinct exposures for sunlight, one from its patio/balcony and the other in the bedroom at the other end of the home.  The large bedroom (16 x12) comes with ample closet space. These homes come with a full size washer and dryer in the bathroom off the hallway. In all cases, like the other co-ops in Leisure World; your utilities and basic cable are included in your monthly co-op fee.

Leisure World of Maryland boasts, along with other models, a large one bedroom co-op apartment, the Essex model.  These units are located on either the ground or second floor of garden apartments. This apartment has just over a thousand (1014) square feet of living space, including a separate dining room, living room, and galley kitchen and a large bedroom and bath.  Unlike smaller one bedroom co-ops, this unit comes with a full size washer and dryer in the unit.

Leisure World of Maryland boasts, along with other models, two very similar small one bedroom condo/co-op apartments:  the Blair and Burgess models.  These two apartments have 800 square feet of living space, including a separate dining room, living room, and galley kitchen; along with a  large  bedroom and bath.  The sliding glass door in the living room opens onto either a balcony or patio.  Some of the previous owners have enclosed this area to give additional living space.

Considering refinancing or buying a condo and obtaining a mortgage to finance that condo purchase?  You better act fast.  Effective April 1, 2009 Fannie Mae is introducing a new fee for condo buyers that put down less than 25% to buy a condo. Because of the risks associated with defaults in condo loans, Fannie Mae has come up with this fee. Their rationale is to get up front fees to offset the long term losses they are incurring in defaults on condo mortgages. Fannie Mae will start charging .75 percent of the loan amount starting April 1, 2009.  Fannie Mae is announcing updates to the standard pricing requirements for mortgage loans with certain risk characteristics. This will apply to financing, HELOCS, refinancing with cash out. The new Fannie Mae LTV credit changes everything. It wil...

For the last week or so, I've been drinking a lot of chicken soup.  And I've found the best in the area in Silver Spring. Behind a plain, almost ugly, facade in a strip mall on Grubb Road, you'll find Comfort Food Central.  Just kidding!  The name of the place is really the Parkway Deli. Their chicken matza ball soup has broth like I haven't tasted ever - even when I lived on New York's Upper West Side.  Lately, I've gotten used to the fat free stuff in a box a Whole Foods.  And Parkway's broth is not fat free - not even close!  They use a wonderful combination of herbs, the matza balls are just perfect, and you don't need to feel crappy to crave the stuff - it's not just for medicinal use. You can get anything on their huge menu to take out, or you can eat in the roomy restaurant - whi...

A friend of mine started an annual new years ritual of creating vision board to start the New Year.  I hear now that vision boards are linked to the Law of Attraction, and I can see that.  But I realize that my parents used to do them way back when (like in the 70's) before the Law of Attraction was as well known as it is today. But the concept is the same - a vision board is a collection of images and words taken from magazines to illustrate or visualize your goals and outcomes for the upcoming year.  This year, I assembled the pieces of my vision full of intent of a propserous, fun and uniquely amazing year.   While many people agree that that creating the vision is important, I have heard two schools of thought on what to do once the board is completed. One school says to hang it whe...

One of the Most Popular Older Silver Spring Neighborhoods, Close-in Woodside Park has an interesting history.  This Mature, Densely Wooded Neighborhood is accessible to Downtown Silver Spring and the Silver Spring Metro Station.  Located inside the Beltway and just over the Washington DC line in Maryland, this gorgeous old subdivsion of charming homes has larger than average lot sizes. With sweeping lawns, the lot sizes are some of the largest you will find in the 20910 zip (close-in) area of Silver Spring.

Mortgage foreclosure simply means the deed can only be foreclosed through court action. Mortgage foreclosure is usually referred to as a judicial foreclosure. A mortgage is a security document that allows the borrower to keep title of the property while using the property as security or collateral for a loan. The lender then places a lien on the property in the event the owner does not pay the agreed payment. When the borrower pays off the loan, the lender gives the borrower a satisfaction of mortgage that removes the lien from the property. About half the states in the U.S. use mortgage foreclosure as the means of satisfying the loan balance. As with most mortgage foreclosure lawsuits, it starts with a summons and a complaint is issued to the borrower and any other parties with inferio...
