WE COULD NOT HAVE HAD A BETTER PERSON
"We started our house hunting endeavors with Carol. She listened and took notes and was very pleasant. She immediately referred us to Brook so we could have a one-on-one person to help us. They both listened and very patiently put up with us 2 old folks and a dog. Carol remembered a request for a city map of Lynn Haven and made sure she gave us one. Carol - we appreciate it - we have about worn it out using it so much. Brook - we just could not ever thank you enough for showing us all the many houses that you did. Your patients are just absolutely unending. We love our house and are enjoying fixing it up. I just do not think we could have had a better person with any real estate company that would have been any better than Brook. She always returned calls, sent any paperwork needed and even happily sent us other info (telephone co, power co, etc numbers) that we requested. We told her we just considered her our adopted daughter. Thanks Brook & Carol."

Financing Your Home >Home Free
Conventional wisdom says, "Don't pay off your mortgage early." Are you foolish to consider an early payoff? Absolutely not! By adding just $50 to $100 to your mortgage payment every month, you can save thousands of dollars in interest, pay off your loan quicker, and eliminate a major monthly expense.
The argument usually given against paying off a mortgage early is that you can make investments with your extra cash, such as mutual funds, stocks or bonds, which pay higher returns. This approach enables you to take the mortgage interest deduction and have easy access to your money, in case you need it. These are all definite pluses, but are not guaranteed savings results.
Any extra income which an investment might generate above your home equity appreciation can be offset by a bad year in the investment market. Investment earnings can virtually eliminate the income tax advantage of your mortgage interest deduction, since stocks and bonds are likely to generate a fair amount of dividends, interest income and capital gains.
It isn't as simple as conventional wisdom--consult a financial expert.
