*FOR SALE* Hear What The Sellers Have to Say About 2101 Madeira Dr NE

Living at 2101 Madeira has been full of wonderful memories. The home has abundant storage, security, and privacy. I have enjoyed many worry free days grilling outside and my children playing outside in the garden. The location is ideally located by several parks. The closest park is Alvarado Park which has a wonderful play set, people walking, people playing soccer or volleyball, picnics, and a Farmer’s Market each Sunday during the summer months. A little further East is Tom Bolack Urban Forest which has a dog park and bike trail up to Jerry Cline Park. This convenient location is centrally located between Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Sprouts. Not to mention it is next to Starbucks Coffee! 

A great way to get to know everyone is through the neighborhood…

Hire Movers or Go DIY?

There are a zillion and one decisions to be made when you move. Do it yourself or pay for full-service movers to come in, pack up all your belongings and ship them to your new home?

It may surprise you, though, to know that there is a broad spectrum of choices that you can mix and match. Ultimately, your decision boils down to the classic tradeoff: spend your money or spend your time.

It can be expensive to move – So go through your home room by room and get rid of unfinished projects, broken and long-unused furniture, exercise equipment, books, toys, clothes and odds and ends you can’t relinquish. Ask you self, do I really need this.

My suggestions when deciding:

• Start early
• Shop for a mover (be wary of scams)
• Avoid online bids or…

Did You Know 1 out of 4 Credit Reports Have Inaccuracies

This could mean that you could have an error on your credit report that could affect your credit score.  This may cause you to NOT get a favorable interest rate on a mortgage loan, car loan or insurance. This could also affect job opportunities. 

It is important to check your credit report for errors at least once a year and more importantly before you start shopping for a home and applying for a loan/credit.  I would suggest you check your credit report 3 months prior to applying for credit as this would give you time to correct any inaccuracies. Disputes take time so its best to have as much time as possible to correct. You do not want the stress of trying to fix these items when in the process of buying a home.

Once a year you can order a FREE…
