Wishing all of you a happy and safe 4th of July.

Mortgage rates have hit an all time low – a 30 year fixed rate mortgage is 4.69% With historically low interest rates and home affordability at an all- time high, it’s an amazing time to buy a home. Don’t wait for interest rates and values to go up before you buy. Just a 1% increase in interest rates can reduce your buying power by 10%.

Now is the time to make your new home a reality. Call Scott Breuer today for more information at 763-441-6044.

If building isn’t an option for you right now but you want to take advantage of these low rates call Ann Marie Breuer at 612-685-8811 and she can help you find an existing home of your dreams.

Everyone has heard that old adage you get what you pay for – well here is an example. Recently one of our past customers called to have us help them repair their screen porch after it had been done by the “other guys”. Seems some repair people were going door to door and this customer needed screens replaced after a hail storm. Well when they left it all looked “pretty” but after a bit of time the sub standard material began to show. They used cheap fiberglass screen vs. strong galvanized screen and did not secure it correctly.

So you see you do get what you pay for. You can either pay a little more and get it done the “right way” or pay less and get it done the “easy way” and end up having to have it done a second time – which costs you more!

Call Scott Breuer today at 612-328-8348 so we can help you get your projects done right the 1st time!

Interest rates are at an all time low, but they won’t stay that way for long. If you act fast you can save yourself alot of money in interest over the term of your loan or you can get more home for your dollar.

The monthly payment on a $200,000 30 year mortgage loan at 4.5% interest is $1,013.37. At 6% it is $1,199.10. That is an increase of $185.73 per month payment if you wait and rates go up. Over the 30 year life of your mortgage you would pay a staggering $66,862.80 more – that is just the difference of a 1.5% increase.

Now is the time to make your new home a reality. Call Scott Breuer today for more information at 763-441-6044.

National Association of Home Builders has declared May remodeling month. Here are some Do’s and Dont’s when it comes to remodeling.

• Don’t neglect your home. Do maintain and enhance the value of your home with maintenance and remodeling projects.
• Don’t try complex remodels on your own. Do call a professional remodeler to get the job done right the first time and save yourself time and money.
• Don’t necessarily hire the cheapest remodeler. Do a through check on the remodeler’s experience, references, and qualifications, such as membership with NAHB (National Association of Home Builders).
• Don’t lose patience during the remodel. Do prepare yourself for challenges and realistically understand the time and money your remodel may require.
• Don’t try to remove or deal with lead paint on your own. Do call a professional remodeler or remediator to minimize exposure to lead paint.
