Importance of Investing

Younger people think it's too early to worry about investing. People near retirement often think it is too late to start investing. Regardless of your age investing is important. Investing ensures present and future financial security. It also allows you to grow your wealth and at the same time generate inflation-beating returns. You also benefit from the power of compounding.

Regardless of your age, contact your trusted investment advisor to make a plan to invest in your future.

Home Buying in the Fall & Winter

Fall and winter can be an ideal time for buyers to purchase a home. Once summer ends, sellers get more motivated. They usually lower their prices and this provides an opportunity for you to get a better deal. Many sellers want to avoid moving during the holiday season which gives you more room to negotiate when you do make an offer.

There are fewer buyers during the fall and winter. People with children generally shop for a home during spring and summer because they want to be settled into a home before school starts. Once fall kicks in, they tend to put home shopping on hold until the next spring.

As of now, mortgage rates are still low. If you need assistance buying or refinancing a home, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the loan department.

Remodel and Invest

Remodeling your kitchen, bath, family room, or primary suite could create a big return on your investment. Don't think of remodeling as spending your savings but rather investing in your home. Be sure to consult trusted local experts before you get started.
