A simple meaning of “Home equity” is the part of your property you actually own. For instance, if your property’s worth $450,000, and you have a mortgage with a remaining loan balance of $200,000, your equity in the property is $250,000.

Naturally, building home equity comes at a price, usually in the form of larger payments. If building home equity means incurring debt to make ends meet, then you’ve defeated the purpose of building equity in the first place.

The first option in home equity building is to make additional principal payments. One way to do this is to sign up for a bi-weekly mortgage, in which you make two payments per month (which added together equal one monthly payment). You will make the equivalent of 13 monthly payments per year instead of 12, which may seem insignificant. But a 30-year loan with a bi-weekly payment plan is usually paid off in about 20 years.

The other way to build home equity faster is to refinance. If you had a $200,000 30-year ARM at 8.13 percent and replaced it with a 15-year fixed rate loan at 6.75 percent, your monthly payment would go from $1485.69 to $1769.82. You would save $200,000 in interest and build the same amount of equity in half the time.

Worrying about what you are going to do with your pets when you have to go out of town? Don’t worry….call Dazzling Pet Sitting at (732) 768-5169. That’s exactly what I did and was completely at ease and didn’t worry about my little “Kitty”.  I adopted “Kitty” back in the Fall and really never left her alone since she became part of my family. I had a family wedding out of town and was going to be gone about 5 days. I was frantic and couldn’t come up with a solution about what I was going to do. Until one day I remembered “Dazzling Pet Sitting”….

Anne and Coleen are the owners operators of Dazzling Pet Sitting and started their business about 8 years ago.  This  business was started because of their love for animals. Anne and Coleen were very aware of the fact that people go off every day and have to leave their pets unattended for long periods of time; e.g. going to work all day, vacations, family events out of town or even out for the day.

There are various pet packages that you can choose from.  They can visit once, twice or three times a day but schedules can be discussed further to contour to the individuals needs.  There is a FREE in home consult for you to meet them and your pet(s). I liked the fact that they keep daily logs of your pets activities and also text message with updates if necessary. For complete details and information log on to their Website (Click Here) and find out about all Dazzling Pet Sitting has to offer. I highly recommend their service; ….one pet at a time!!!
