What Can You Do To
Protect Your Credit Score?
Your CREDIT
is a big part of your financial health. It is identified by your CREDIT SCORE. Your
credit score indicates how you use money over time. How much of a risk it is to
loan you money? Are you responsible or irresponsible with money? If your credit
is good it can help you to borrow money at a lower interest rate for long and
short term loans. If not it can hurt your future ability to borrow money. So
you have to maintain a good credit score before you want to make a big purchase
like a home or a car.
A low credit
score can also negatively affect you in other areas of life. When renting a
home or an apartment; landlords or property management companies routinely check
the credit score to see if the prospect is a responsible tenant and is willing
and able to pay the rent on time.
What can
you do to protect your credit score?
1) Your Payment
History
How good are
you about making payments on all your current bills and balances? Always consistently
pay your bills on time as accounts in collection are a big negative for credit
score. If you cannot pay your credit card balance in full, be sure to make the
minimum payment on time. Late and missed payments cost more in the long run, as
you can be charged a higher interest rate for credit, later on. Setting up automatic
payments for fixed expenses is an easy way to avoid missed or late payments.
2) Balance You Owe
How much
credit do you have available? One of the factors that determines your credit
score is the amount of credit you have available. The debt to credit ratio should
be as low as possible so it is a good idea to keep the overall debt lower than the
total credit available. Try to reduce your balances by paying a little more
each time than just the minimum payment. Be careful about closing unused credit
card accounts. This can also be viewed negatively in determining your credit
score as the less credit you have available the lower the credit score.
3) Your Credit
History
How long
have you been borrowing and managing money? The account age is also important. It
is not a good idea to close old credit card accounts which show you have been
making payments on time as those accounts are a part of your credit history.
4) Newly
Opened Accounts
What have you
been up to lately? Be careful about opening up a bunch of credit cards in a
short period of time. The credit reporting agencies view you as a high risk
when you apply for too much credit in a short period of time. Think about that
every time a department clerk asks if you want to apply for a department store credit
card.
5)
Annualcreditreport.com
Have you checked
your credit report recently? Check your credit report at Annualcreditreport.com.
At this site, once every year you can get a free credit report from each of the
three credit bureaus, Experian, Transunion and Equifax. Check the report for accuracy
and also make sure you are aware of all existing open accounts.
Don’t risk
your financial health. Having a good credit score should be an ongoing
priority. Now doesn’t that just make good sense?

Will Home Mortgages Become
More Expensive, Soon?
Did you know
new lending guidelines will be in place beginning this March?
Home prices
have been on the rise and along with that the mortgage interest rates too, have
gone up. Lending rules are getting tougher. Even though Fannie Mae and Freddie
Mac do not originate new mortgages they do buy about 66% of the loans underwritten
by the banks. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have announced new tougher guidelines
which go in effect starting March 2014. This is expected to easily add about
half a point to the interest rate that a fixed rate borrower will pay.
Next month
in February 2014 federal rules known as “ability to re-pay” and “qualified
mortgage” are also set to kick in. These rules impose tough penalties for banks
that write unconventional mortgages that go into default later on. With the
fear of penalties, banks will not have much leeway when considering loans to
borrowers who are self-employed, who are commissioned or have a new job.
The
governments’ bond buying program called Quantitative easing has helped keep the
interest rates low till now. However the Fed is winding down on quantitative
easing, what this means is that we should expect to see a rise in the mortgage
interest rates.
What should
those buyers do, those who are considering buying and will also need
financing? Buyers who are on the fence about buying
should not wait much longer because higher interest rates erode buying power.
If for example a buyer is qualified for $200,000 home mortgage at 4.75% for a
term of 30 yrs. The monthly installment will be $1043.29. If the interest rate
goes up to 5.5%, to keep the monthly
installment at $1043.29 the mortgage amount has to be $183,746. So the buyer
gets a smaller home for the same installment or the monthly installment has to
go up approximately $92.29 up to $1135.58 for a mortgage amount of $200,000 and
a loan term of 30yrs.

How Many Lagoons Make
Up The Indian River Lagoon?
Did you know that the Indian River lagoon on The Atlantic
coast of Florida is really a group of three lagoons? Yes that’s true. Together
the Mosquito Lagoon, Banana River and Indian River make up the Indian River
Lagoon. The Indian River Lagoon or estuary is separated from the Atlantic coast
by the barrier islands. The Indian River Lagoon is 156 miles long, it extends
from Ponce De Leon Inlet in Volusia County, to the southern border of Martin
county. The Indian River Lagoon is connected to the ocean by a few ocean inlets
and this allows the saltwater to mix with the fresh water which comes from
runoff from the surrounding land as well as from the rainfall. Any changes in
the amount of freshwater, or pollutants or sudden changes in temperatures
affects the marine life and vegetation of the lagoon.

The Lagoon is home to over 2000 species of marine life and
over 2000 species of vegetation. The inlets are really picturesque. One such
beautiful view is on A1A near Sebastian Inlet. As you drive on A1A over the
Sebastian National Park, you see the ocean waves on one side of A1A and the
quiet waters of the lagoon on the other side of A1A. It is quite a sight!
Here in Brevard County, Florida the view on the lagoon is
never the same! You may see a dolphin jumping out of the water one minute and
ducks swimming by another and then maybe a pelican diving in to catch a fish.
Next maybe a water skier behind a boat and next a sail boat perhaps. In the
spring time it is exciting to see schools of newborn fish swimming in a zigzag
fashion on the lagoon floor. I have had the opportunity to see more than one
sting ray on the lagoon floor. Some areas of the lagoon have been identified as
Manatee zones and boat have to run on idle speed in these areas to protect the
manatees. The Indian River Lagoon is also known to have a diverse variety of
bird population as its inhabitants.

Many of the waterfront homes in Merritt Island, Satellite
Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Indialantic and Melbourne Beach are on the Indian
River or the Banana River. Many of the homes on exclusive Lansing Island are on
the Banana River and the lovely and exclusive Tortoise Island subdivision has
homes on both the Banana River and Indian River. Residents with waterfront
homes on the lagoon have a responsibility to avoid unnecessary and over
fertilization of their lawns as fertilizer that is washed into the lagoon is
harmful to its health. Wetlands should be preserved as they help cleanse the
lagoon.

Question: Is
Housing Affordable in the Melbourne and surrounding area?
Answer: The
area ranks as one of the most affordable for housing. The median cost of homes
sold in Jul 2013 is $130,000. Also homeowners who are florida residents can
apply for and receive a $25,000 homestead exemption on the assessed value of
their primary home. They can also receive an additional $25,000 homestead exemption
if the assessed value of the home is at least $75000. Another great benefit for
Florida homeowners, is the cap on the assessed value of a home, referred to as
“Save our homes” cap. This cap limits the annual increase on the assessed value
of the property receiving homestead exemption to 3% or consumer price index
whichever is lower. Contact Rekha Vyas at 321 759 4409 for information on

The housing market is finally in recovery
mode. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports existing home prices
have been rising for 20 straight months and existing-home sales are at the
highest pace since November 2009.
Home prices are seeing their strongest gains
since 2006. The combination of inventory shortages and increasing
demand for new and existing homes has helped home values to rise
up to the highest level in five years. Keep in mind that foreclosure
sales, which sell at a discount are down. This has also helped boost
home prices.
Many of the underwater homes are not
underwater anymore. Sellers are in a more favorable position and calling
the shots. Buyers are making full price offers to get the home they want. Multiple
offers are also becoming common now. Even though mortgage rates have risen
they are still attractive. This is in part due to the Feds Bond purchase
program known as Quantitative Easing. It is predicted that the housing
recovery is here to stay at least for the next five or so years.
Bottom line: Interest rates remain
attractive and now is a great time to purchase a home.

Sea Turtle Walks in Melbourne Beach and Satellite Beach – What an education! This June my family had the pleasure of watching a loggerhead sea turtle nest in Satellite Beach, Florida. What an amazing site! One we’ll never forget. My niece who lives in Chicago was planning to visit me in June this summer and in conversation enthusiastically described one of her elementary school research projects on sea turtles. That’s when it struck me that she could get a fascinating education if we took her on a Sea turtle Walk. The Sea Turtle Preservation Society is a nonprofit organization whose purpose is to increase public awareness about the marine turtles through lectures, exhibits and its turtle watches during the summer sea turtle nesting season. We called their office right away in May for a Turtle Walk reservation in June. We arrived at the Pelican Beach Park in Satellite Beach and met with the volunteers who would be our tour guides. After some time we were seated by the volunteers and shown a short interesting video. This was followed by a lecture with amazing slides of the various sea turtles. About 30 mins into this our guide got word from other volunteers who were scouting the beach that a sea turtle had come out of the Atlantic Ocean. We were escorted to the site and had the opportunity to watch a sea turtle laying eggs. After about 20 mins the turtle started covering up the hole with sand and the eggs were well covered. Then she turned around slowly and in about another five to seven mins went back in the ocean! It was an awesome experience for all of us and a great education for my niece! Reservations for turtle walks to view nesting loggerhead turtles begin May 1 and continue as long as there are openings. I’ve heard the walks get filled up pretty soon. Walks are offered four or five nights a week during the months of June and July. They take place either on Melbourne Beach or Satellite Beach.
