On August 20, the first phase of the credit card bill that was approved in May took effect.

Key changes in the way credit cards work include:

1.Customers will now receive 45 days notice,
up from 15 days, before interest rates increase. 2.The minimum balance due can increase by no more
than two times the percentage that it previously has been. 3.Bills must be mailed 21 days, up from 14 days,
before the payment is due.

The balance of the bill's provisions will become effective in February. Until then, consumer advocates' concerns center around credit card issuers continuing to increase rates, lower credit limits, decrease rewards programs, and close inactive accounts. Credit card companies reaffirm these actions are not due to legislation but decreasing credit scores.

This bill intends to help consumers control credit and unknown expenses. As consumers consider buying or selling a home, knowing monthly expenses becomes increasingly important in understanding how much they can afford and are comfortable spending on housing.

Sometimes life throws eggs at you and you have to decide whether you let them rot on you.....

or make scrambled eggs and eat them.

My husband's employer decided to transfer him from Dawsonville to Douglasville. They gave us 6 days notice to get moved and report to work. I know what you're saying, but if you have a good job with benefits these days you have to do whatever is necessary to keep it. And being that he's the primary bread winner I had no choice but to cooperate.

I hope this explains why my posts went from featuring Dawsonville to Douglasville. (Well, I haven't posted anything about Douglasville yet- but I will!) The good news is that my real estate license is for the entire state of Georgia and as long as we stay in the state, I can work wherever I go.

Back to the subject of egg throwing...I have to admit I was hesitant at first to re-group and start over in a new town. I became discouraged and thought about giving up the business for awhile and getting a 'job'. But now that I've had time to digest it and meditate on it for awhile, I've decided that I can't give up doing what I love to do.

When I moved to Georgia from Florida in 1995 I moved to the area where we have moved to, so I'm familiar with the area. In no time at all, I am up and running- full steam ahead.

I'm cooking those eggs and they are going to be delicious!

If you're reading this and you're in the Douglasville area and you are looking to buy or sell a home- give me a call. If you're facing foreclosure and would like to discuss doing a short sale to avoid foreclosure, give me a call.

I look forward to new possibilities, making new friends, and helping folks in Douglasville follow their dreams!

1. Thou shalt not change jobs, become self-employed or quit your job. Longer employment time shows stability and a reduced likelyhood of default

2. Thou shalt not buy a car, truck or van (or you may beliving in it)! This will increase your debt to income ratio.

3. Thou shalt not use charge cards excessively or let your

accounts fall behind. This shows poor money management and an increased risk of default.

4. Thou shalt not spend money you have set aside for closing. It costs money to borrow money - make sure you have enough.

5. Thou shalt not omit debts or liabilities from your loan

application. This is tantamount to fraud - never a good thing!

6. Thou shalt not buy furniture or other big ticket item on credit. Like buying a car, this increases your debt to income ratio.

7, Thou shalt not originate any inquiries into your credit. The algorhythm is a secret but you'll get dinged a few points for most inquiries.

8. Thou shalt not make large deposits without first checking with your loan officer. Money needs to "season" in your bank account, typically for 60 or more days.

9. Thou shalt not change bank accounts. A strong banking history, like a strong employment history, shows stability.

10. Thou shalt not co-sign a loan for anyone. Like buying cars or furniture, this increases your debt to income ratio.
