In this age of stimulus bills and bail outs you would expect a really cool mortgage loan program to help home buyers. Well, there is one, but it’s actually been around for years. There is a little known FHA loan program called the 203(k) that allows you to purchase a home and fix it up with the same loan. It’s not very well known because most lenders either can’t do them or just don’t want to do them. They are more work than the average loan officer wants to do and most companies don’t have underwriters that are familiar enough with them to confidently issue an approval that FHA will accept. At Republic Mortgage we feel the benefit to the client is so big that we have made the commitment to offer this program. We have loan officers who have been certified on this program (of course, that includes me) and the staff to get them done.
Here is an overview of the program: Read more…

With the return of leggings, Ray Bans, and blue eyeshadow, I feel a sense of comfort knowing that the 80’s have made another appearance in fashion. (Yes, I once wore peg-legged jeans.) It’s amazing to see the way that trends swing back and forth in so many areas of our lives! Car bodies are looking boxy again. Yes, that All American Rejects song is probably a remake. And even wedding styles have a way of making the old seem new again. Keep an eye on the runways this fall and you’ll notice that shiny-satin jewel-toned bridesmaids are back, asymmetrical styles and single-strapped gowns get a nod, and a wave of mermaids have come ashore!
Flowers too have a way of riding that pendulum of style, swinging back and forth from small and simple to Read more…

A second (third, fourth, or fifth) marriage differs from a first-time marriage in many ways. The good news? Both partners are often wiser and know themselves even better having gone through the refining process of divorce. The bad news? Each subsequent marriage is harder to hold together due to the additional complications of blending children and households, finances, lifestyle, and expectations, as well as managing the ghosts of relationships past. There are few things we can do AFTER marriage to compensate for choosing poorly. Here are a few suggestions: Read more…

Use Him Up and Wear Him Out
by Bonnnie Humphrey
Photography by Digital Izatt Photography
My mom must really have been ahead of her time. As a kid, the phrase: “Use it up and wear it out” was commonplace. No need to buy something new, if we already have something that works. Despite feeling like I was the only kid on the block with recycled goods, I have a feeling though that I wasn’t alone.
And now the “green” trend is upon us. I suppose someone finally took their mother’s counsel to heart Read more…

A wedding cake professional should help a bride find an option that will work with the bride’s budget and make the cake beautiful. The best way to do this is a personal consultation. Cakes can be made in so many different sizes that almost any price range can be met Read more…
