Home Loans after Bankruptcy.
Saturday, December 29, 2007
Attaining homeownership is a great goal. If you have a good credit rating, reaching this goal is easy. On the other hand, if you have a few credit blemishes or filed a recent bankruptcy, you may have to delay homeownership until your credit situation improves. Several lenders specialize in bad credit mortgages, and offer loans to people after bankruptcy. However, before accepting an offer, consider the following points.
When was the Bankruptcy Discharged? There is no mandatory waiting period for obtaining a mortgage after bankruptcy. Those who are eager to purchase a home may get a loan immediately following their discharge. Unfortunately, this may not be the best plan. Mortgage interest rates following a bankruptcy are outrageously high, which may greatly increase your mortgage payment. In fact, mortgage and credit experts may encourage you to wait at least 24 month before applying for a home loan. By doing so, you have the opportunity to receive a comparable low interest rate on your home loan.
Choosing a Good Mortgage Lender Depending on your credit rating, you may get approved for either a prime or sub prime loan. Prime mortgage loans are offered to individuals with excellent credit. On the contrary, sub prime loans are intended for those with lower credit scores. Prior to applying for a loan, request an online quote from a mortgage broker. Based on your credit information, a broker will provide multiple quotes from sub prime or prime lenders.

Merits of Bad Credit Debt Consolidation
Friday, December 21, 2007
Reason #1: Interest Rates Reduction. Combining debt can be great because you often combine them into one payment with one interest rate instead of many different rates. Often this can lower than the rate you were originally paying.
Reason #2: Stress Level Reduction. Debt can be so troubling emotionally in so many ways, and this can affect you both mentally and physically. Worry over debt can begin to take control of your life and can cause some very strong negative emotions. People often get depressed, become angry, and all this may lead to health issues, arguments with your partner and problems at work with concentration.
Reason #3: Creditor Reduction. Bad credit debt consolidation will typically involve dealing with lots of different accounts, whether they are credit cards, store cards or loans of various descriptions. It's a great relief making one easy payment to cover all of the debt. Usually, various credit payments are payable to different creditors and at different times. This can make it difficult to pay the debt in a timely manner and keep track of what payments are due to which creditor.
Reason #4: Error Reduction. Many bad credit debt consolidation programs include plans that encompass budgeting, counseling and financial planning. These are great tools to use that will prevent you from getting in the same situation sometime down the road. People make mistakes and debt is not the end of the world. The best way to keep this from happening again is to learn what you can do to become debt free, remain debt free and become financially stable.
Reason #5: Bad Credit Score Reduction. Or should we say credit score increase? As you pay off your debt, your outstanding debts that are affecting your credit score will begin to diminish and your score will increase. The higher the score, the more financially sound you seem and are more likely to be approved for future credit.
Reason #6: Total Capital Reduction. This is probably the most attractive reason to opt for a structured debt management program rather than taking out another loan. You will be writing of a huge chunk of your debt at the start. The more professional debt consolidation companies are trained in negotiating with creditors, sometimes achieving as much as 70 percent off the original debt right off the bat.

Understanding Car Lease Terms!
Tuesday, December 4, 2007
There are three main terms in car leasing that are confusing:
Capitalized Cost. The capitalized Cost is simply the selling price of the vehicle. Now, wait a minute! It's not That simple! Almost, but not quite!
You've got your Gross Capitalized Cost which is the selling price of the vehicle (Which you negotiated just like you were buying...OK?!), plus all other pertinent fees like the Acquisition Fee if any, dealer title fees, payoff on your trade, Extended Warranty, Credit Life Insurance, Accident and Health Insurance, Gap Insurance and any other fees that might come into play.
Then there is the Adjusted Capitalized Cost which is the Gross Capitalized Cost minus any reductions such as net trade-in allowance, cash down, rebates, taxes, license fees and registration fees. Are you getting all of this?
Residual Value. The Residual Value represents the estimated value of the car you're leasing at the end of the lease term. These values are published monthly in the form of a percentage or a dollar amount, most commonly in the American Lease Guide (ALG). The higher the Residual Value the lower your payments! Some vehicles hold their value better than others, so when you're choosing a vehicle check this out carefully.
The Money Factor. Essentially, the Money Factor is the same as the Interest Rate on a loan.

How A Stand-Out Lessor Can Help Your Business
Friday, November 23, 2007
it If the equipment leasing company that your firm uses could make money for you or save you a bundle, wouldnt that company be worth its weight in gold? Sure it would. That firm would probably earn the loyalty of your firm.
Some leasing companies go the extra mile, delivering exceptional value to their customers. Here are a few ways stand-out lessors deliver great value:
Cost-effective Leases
Certainly, providing a competitive lease transaction that helps your firm to stay within budget and spread the leasing cost over the equipments useful life is a winning combination. The lease should also be flexible and user friendly. It should allow your firm to upgrade equipment easily and to terminate the lease in a cost-effective manner, should the need arise.
Convert Existing Equipment To Cash
If your firm has recent-model equipment that was not financed, why not convert the equipment into cash that can be used in your business? A skilled lessor can help your firm achieve that goal by structuring a sale-leaseback transaction. Under an equipment sale-leaseback, your firm sells equipment to the leasing company at the equipments fair market value. The leasing company then leases the equipment back to your firm under competitive terms. This type of transaction can be a win-win for both parties.
Achieve Higher Values On Unneeded Equipment
Your firm may have equipment that still has value, yet that equipment no longer meets your companys needs. Certainly, you can place ads in industry publications or otherwise attempt to re-market the equipment. Lessors that stand out can often help you re-market used equipment while achieving higher equipment values. Some lessors are active in the after-market of many types of equipment. They are often able to orchestrate the removal, refurbishment and sale of used equipment, while maximizing the re-market value.
Promote Your Business
A stand-out leasing company can help your firm excel by promoting your business. Some promotional activities offered by savvy lessors include: issuing joint press releases about the lease transaction, highlighting your firms offerings; including a testimonial from your firm on their website with a description of your companys activities; highlighting your business in their company newsletter sent to customers; introducing your firm to other leasing customers who might need your products or services; and hosting customer mixers to allow you to network with other customers.
Introductions To Key Financing Sources And Financial Service Providers
Leasing companies typically interface with many financing sources and financial service providers. They sometime call on other financing sources to check prospect credit references or to discuss collateral positions or lien releases. They also call on funding sources to originate new business, especially from sources that specialize in complementary financial services. Stand-out lessors stay on the lookout for high-quality lenders, private equity sources, CPA firms, attorneys, mortgage providers, insurers and others capable of providing excellent services to their customers. In many cases, like birds of a feather, high-quality financial service providers find one another and exchange business referrals.
How do you find a stand-out lessor? Make sure you ask the right questions when you meet lessors and when you check their references. Ask about the other ways they serve their customers. Also, when you make reference calls to check out new lessors, ask their references whether the lessors have offered any other helpful services that make them stand-out. While most lessors are skilled at selling their services, you will recognize the stand-outs by hearing from their customers.

Leasing Tips, Free and Otherwise
Tuesday, November 13, 2007
Spell out the Horse's Condition at the Beginning of the Lease: The lessee should get in writing the horse's condition at the beginning of the lease, via a veterinarian's pre-purchase exam. Otherwise, the lessee could get tagged as being responsible for a condition that the horse arrived with. These exams are not that expensive, under $200 typically, and will protect the lessee. Many latent conditions can surface during these exams, for example, vision problems or incipient lameness.
Discuss Insurance Issues: Discussing who is going to carry the horse insurance during the lease is important. Do not assume coverage without this discussion. Also discuss who is going to call the insurance company in the case of a possible claim. Insurance coverage might rest on quick notification, and so if the owner and the lessee have not worked this out in advance, then a claim could be defeated if notice is not given timely, even if otherwise coverage exists.
In Case Disaster Strikes: Discuss who is going to be responsible in the event of a major medical disaster with the horse. What if the horse colics? Who decides if the horse is to go to the hospital, and who is liable for those veterinarian bills? Is there an outside limit that will be spent? If the lessee has counted on the horse's availability and would be harmed by unavailability, would the lessee have any rights in these decisions?
Leasing Is Often Better Than Buying
Thursday, November 1, 2007
Leasing refers to an owner, or lessor, selling use of his property (equipment, automobile, home, or business) to a lessee. For many individuals, leasing is a good alternative to buying because leasing requires less equity and, therefore, more people have the qualifications to lease than to buy. For example, a $1 million piece of property may be too expensive for a business to purchase, so they lease it for $4,000 per month, which they are able to do with the profits they make.
Having the latest high-tech equipment is crucial for an IT company, so they may lease the best computers and have a continuing upgrade in their contract. This is much more cost-effective than regularly having to purchase the latest model, especially because computers are constantly being improved upon and the older ones become obsolete in no time.
Many other types of equipment, such as those used in construction, entertainment, weddings, and offices are typically leased to the user. Bulldozers, loaders, graders, and cranes are just some of the equipment needed when constructing a new building. If the building owner bought these items for the temporary use needed, he would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars needlessly. By leasing the machines, he is paying less and also being guaranteed service, repair, and maintenance on them.
Equipment rentals are a big part of the entertainment industry, from a child’s birthday party to huge corporate events. Many parents lease massive waterslides, cotton candy machines, and “moon walks” to enhance their child’s party. Corporations trying to impress clients host big blowouts complete with extravagant light shows, live broadcasts, and other huge presentations, all requiring leased equipment.
Weddings and bat/bar mitzvahs are other big sources of leasing needs. These events often require large amounts of silverware, linens, tables and chairs. Some even opt to have huge tents erected for their event, another leased product. A wedding typically has five or more vendors, all providing various leased services, such as catering, supplies, and music for the event.
Business leasing works similarly to home leasing. A person or company will buy a strip mall and lease each of the storefronts to different businesses, focusing on what sort of businesses will do well in the community and offering a variety of services on the property. The business owner would rather lease the store than buy it, because it is less expensive and the landlord will handle all service and maintenance of the building.

Ten Equipment Leasing Tips
Tuesday, September 11, 2007
According to the Equipment Leasing Association (“ELA”), U.S. businesses lease every thing from laptop computers to commercial airplanes, racking up more than $ 200 billion in equipment leased each year. Although four out of five U.S. companies use leasing to acquire equipment, many don’t know the ins and outs of leasing well enough to negotiate a good deal. By focusing on a few key aspects of the lease transaction, you can save a bundle on your next lease and eliminate potential aggravation.
1. Choose the Right Leasing Partner
2. Choose the Right Lease
3. Ask for Fair Market Value ‘Caps’
4. Keep the End-of-lease Notice and Renewal Periods Short
5. Slash Interim Rent
6. Manage Equipment Returns
7. Match Lease Term with Projected Equipment Use
8. Identify and Understand All Potential Fees
9. Offer Credit Enhancement to Reduce Lease Rates
10. Request Several End-of-lease Options
Conclusion :- Saving a bundle on your next lease is a cinch if you know where to look. By focusing on a few key areas, you can wring huge savings out of your lease. Remember to set your priorities in evaluating lease proposals and to choose the right leasing partner. Also, while front-end lease pricing is usually a high priority, evaluate each lease carefully to sniff out hidden fees and expenses. Don’t be bashful about negotiating points in the lease that have the potential to save you a bundle.
Quick Tips To Fix Bad Credit
Saturday, September 1, 2007
More and more people today are learning just how stressful it can be to live with debt or bad credit, but there are ways in which a person can actually fix bad credit without having to resort using a debt consolidation or credit repair loan.
Below we will look at a number of different steps you should consider using in order to get your bad credit fixed.
1. The first thing that anyone should do in order to start fixing their bad credit report or history is to get a copy of their credit report from a credit bureau such as Experian. Then if you do find any errors on it write to the bureau in question and ask for them to arrange for the mistake to be fixed. It may also be a good idea if you also contact the creditor who has reported the error as well as they may actually contact the credit bureau and inform them of the situation.
2. However if your credit report is bad because of some outstanding debts it is wise if you arrange to repay these as soon as you can. Look at each one and those with the higher rate of interest on them should be the ones which you pay off first.
3. But if you find you are being overwhelmed by all of your debts then the most sound advice I can give you is to contact a credit counseling organization, there are loads of non profit ones around. They will help you to set up a debt consolidation plan (not to be confused with a debt consolidation loan). Not only will they help you to consolidate your debts, but they will also contact all of your debtors on your behalf in order to help to either reduce or have finance charges eliminated. Doing this can sometimes reduce a person's monthly payments that they are making to their creditors by as much as 40%.
4. It is best if you do not use any service which is offering either a credit repair or debt consolidation loan facility. These companies are likely to plunge you further into debt rather than actually helping to fix the problem. Be especially wary of those companies who offer theirs services through sending unsolicited e-mails or mail to you or their advertising methods are very aggressive.
By keeping these points in mind you should soon be on the road to fix bad credit reports and look to having a much more secure financial future.

Benefits of Equipment Leasing
Thursday, August 30, 2007
Technology provides a needed and powerful edge in business; the following points examine those benefits and let you decide how these benefits provide you with the needed edge in business. An equipment leasing arrangement provides you the edge you need without running the expensive costs associated with purchasing state-of-the-art equipment.
Wider Options, Lesser Costs - With an equipment leasing arrangement you are free to select your choice of equipment without paying the full price. This advantage also comes with the fact that most business equipment leasing companies will often handle everything from the maintenance to the deployment of their equipment. Your company can save the costs associated with the equipment as the leasing company usually gets price cuts on equipment and related services since they buy in bulk.
State-Of-The-Art Equipment - When a commercial equipment leasing company provides your business with equipment they provide the best. They do this because unlike your business, equipment leasing is the only business they do and their competition is steeped in proving you the best equipment at the lowest prices. If they don�t provide the best equipment at the best prices their competition takes over, so the company paying for leasing services gets all the related benefits of getting the best equipment at a cheap price.
Flexible Arrangements - With an equipment leasing arrangement, financing is according to your convenience. Financing can be arranged according to the way you intend to use the equipment and the cash flow of your company. You can also renegotiate the terms of your lease if your circumstances change and this comes without any repercussions. Some commercial equipment leasing companies also handle the insurance of their equipment so insurance costs for your leased equipment is not a problem.
Creating Loan Opportunities
Saturday, August 25, 2007
How much does the present day lender care for yours being with bad credit? If the recent trends in lending are to be believed, lenders are not as cautious about lending to the people with bad credit. The borrowers would often reminisce of the times when they would be considered as an outcaste if bad credit history became known. Most borrowers are unaware of a bad credit history until they get refused loans on account of bad credit. Refusal comes as a blow to the plans of these borrowers. The plans to utilise the personal loan proceeds in some or other way are all grounded. Bad credit personal loans come in support of such borrowers. Giving them an opportunity to give shape to their plans, bad credit personal loans are widely preferred.
Bad credit results when a debtor is not able to make full and timely payments towards a debt. Even after sufficient notice, when the debtor doesn’t make payment for the debts, the creditor may approach the County Court. Once a judgement is pronounced against the debtor for non payment, his credit file will show the bad remark for a minimum period of six years. Bankruptcy and Individual Voluntary Arrangements also count towards bad credit history. The principal drawback of credit report is that they do not show the reasons behind the poor remarks on the credit file. Loan providers have tried to mend this lacuna through bad credit personal loans. Lenders now give consideration to any unavoidable reasons because of which borrower may have attracted bad credit.
Though the outlook of lenders towards the borrowers with bad credit has certainly seen a change, loan providers still need to prepare for the worst of circumstances. For this, the lenders would lend with caution. It is for the same reason that the borrowers with bad credit are recommended to use bad credit personal loans instead of the regular personal loans.
Bad credit personal loans have a built-in difference of terms to suit the unique group, which bad credit borrowers form. Accordingly, when borrowers approach for a bad credit personal loan, they must be prepared to get loans below par with the regular borrowers, i.e. terms on which bad credit personal loans are lent are not as attractive as the regular personal loans. And each time you rise up to complain, understand that you surely pose a risk to the investments of the lenders.
Bad credit personal loans may be classified into secured and unsecured personal loans depending on the collateral offered to the lender. Though borrowers regain control of the collateral offered after the specified period, personal loans become very attractive because of the use of collateral. Lenders ignore any credit deformities that the borrowers may possess if the borrower accepts to bring in certain collateral. Lenders are well aware that a borrower who cares for the safety of the collateral offered will never dither on payments to the bad credit personal loan; if ever the borrower fails to make repayments to bad credit personal loan, lender has the option of sale of collateral to recover the unpaid sum.
When bad credit personal loans are lent for any specific purpose, they take up names according to that specific purpose. So, bad credit debt consolidation loans will be employed towards settlement of debts and bad credit home improvement loan would be used for home repairs and extensions. But, before you plan a purpose and start taking steps towards the fulfilment of the purpose, it will be very necessary to confirm the amount that you are qualifying for. A reduced amount than through regular personal loans is one of the chief characteristics of bad credit personal loans. Loan providers may approve borrowers for as much as ₤25000. Proper search can result into lenders who are ready to offer a comparatively higher sum against bad credit personal loan.
It is not that the bad credit personal loan restricts itself to providing finance for the borrower. Another important use of the loan is in improving credit history. The borrower does not have to take any extra efforts to bring about this improvement. While borrower continues reducing his obligation through periodical repayments, credit history automatically improves.
Tips for Debt consolidation
Monday, August 20, 2007
Debt consolidation and settlement solutions are practical means for eliminating credit card and other high interest debts, and getting your financial health and future back on track. Being concerned about debt elimination 24hrs a day can be extremely stressful, both on you and your family. So take a few minutes right now and educate yourself about your options.
1. Go with a company that has a good reputation. Don't assume that every non-profit company is necessarily going to look out for your interests more than a for profit debt consolidation company. Shopping around will give you the means to decide on the one that best suits your circumstances and budget. Spend time researching different lenders and get quote from a handful before deciding on whom to take your debt consolidation loan from.
2. Do the math yourself. Take the time to work through the expenses yourself and see how much you will be paying, how long it will take to pay off the loan, etc. Too many people keen to consolidate their debts, take the first opportunity available to them, unaware that there are lower rates and other options available.
3. You must consider whether debt consolidation is cost effective in the long term. Paying off an existing debt may incur charges for early settlement, and there may also be a fee for arranging your consolidation loan.
4. Also, by taking out a new loan, you will be extending the period in which you are paying off debts - and that might mean a greater interest cost in the long run. Finally, many lenders add payment protection insurance to their loans without the borrowers' knowledge, which is often more expensive than similar cover freely available elsewhere.
5. Make sure you understand the difference between variable and fixed rate loans. If you sign up for a variable rate loan, you may get a lower rate initially, but within a few years it may go up.
6. Debt consolidation with debt counseling can provide you with debt advice for financial planning. This would help you sort out your present debts as well as prevent you from getting into future debt. Debt counseling services can talk to your creditors about reducing interest rate, eliminating late fees and extending loan term.
Taxes benifits Business
Saturday, August 18, 2007
Big business enjoys huge tax advantages by creating Captive Insurance Companies. Successful PCs can also use this powerful tool for wealth accumulation and risk management.
The CIC underwrites risks of companies owned by the same owner(s)--risks associated with the practice or medical facility that are not easily or cheaply covered by commercial insurance.
Risks that may be covered by a CIC:
• Administrative Actions
• Computers, Data Recovery
• Key Employees
• Employee /Executive/Professional Liability
• Business Income Loss
• Litigation Expense
• eCommerce Risk
• Directors/Officers
• Kidnapping/Ransom
• Sexual Harassment
• Income Tax Indemnity
• Deductibles/Gap Coverage
Policies can be labeled “litigation expense only”—creating a pre-tax war chest to fight lawsuits, while protecting assets against claims. “Premium dollars” are moved out -- away from creditors. Because premium payments are made “for value” it’s difficult for creditors to prove fraudulent transfer.
Advantages
• Better statutory protection for reserves due to requirements to pay claims. Creditors are less likely to force judgments.
• When no longer useful, captives can be terminated, assets distributed, capital gains declared, taxes paid -- providing optimum tax benefits.
• Captives formed under 831(b) have straightforward tax reporting -- like a simple “S” corporation. Smart entrepreneurs engage professionals experienced in this section of the code to ensure compliance.

4 Steps To Credit Card Debt Relief
Friday, August 10, 2007
Consumers everywhere are looking for credit card debt relief options, and it's no wonder. Thousands of people owe tens of thousands to their credit card companies. But is credit card debt relief really possible? If you know what you're doing, it is. Here are 4 easy steps to getting out from under your credit card debt.
1. Assess Your Situation
The first step towards credit card debt relief is understanding exactly how bad the situation is. This means taking all of your recent credit card statements and totaling up all of your outstanding balances.
Most people avoid totaling all of their credit card debt. This is usually because the end result will come out to a scary figure. However, if you are serious about credit card debt relief, you need to know exactly how much debt you are really in.
2. Reviewing Your Options
Once you know exactly how much debt you are in, you need to review your options. When it comes to credit card debt relief, there are a number of services and solutions available to consumers.
Most consumers turn to one of three solutions for credit card debt relief including debt consolidation, debt negotiation and bankruptcy. Which of these solutions is right for you will depend on many things including exactly how much debt you are in and what your finances look like.
For credit card debt negotiation, you contact your creditors and tell them that you will pay them a percentage (usually 25 to 50 percent) of what you owe if they will consider the payment as payment in full. This means if you owe a creditor $5,000, you offer $2,500 and ask them to write off the debt for that amount.
3. Make a Plan
Once you know what type of credit card debt relief you are interested in, it's time to lay out a plan. In the case of credit card debt consolidation, you'll need to determine how you will consolidate your debt and exactly how much you can pay towards your debt each month.
In the case of debt negotiation, you'll need to determine exactly how much money you are going to offer your creditors and which ones you will be contacting first. In the case of bankruptcy, you'll need to look into obtaining the services of a lawyer.
4. Put Your Plan in Action
Once you know exactly what steps you need to take, it's time to put them in action. In the case of bankruptcy and debt negotiation, this is just a matter of taking the proper steps and executing them according to your plan. With debt consolidation, however, a bit of willpower will be required.
Many people who consolidate their debt are excited to find out that their minimum monthly payments are often reduced. This does not mean, however, that you should pay the minimum monthly payment. The purpose of credit card debt relief plans is to get out of debt as quickly as possible. This means paying as much as you possibly can to your creditors each month.
And of course, once credit card debt relief is achieved, make sure you don't find yourself in the same situation again. Manage your debt wisely and let the sacrifices you make towards credit card debt relief serve as a lesson.
