Owner Financing Offers Alternatives for Home Buyers
2011-11-16 06:00:00 When home buyers can't get a loan, they often turn to owner financing options. Back in the 1970s, newspaper classifieds were sprinkled with home ads titled OWC, meaning "owner will carry." Although today's real estate market is different, there are still similarities between the 1970s and now. Many home buyers in the 1970s faced financing challenges due to tightening of credit. And days on market exceeded 30. Buyers like owner financing for a variety of reasons, and it's also an alternative for those with less than stellar credit. That's because a buyer can have a decent FICO score but still be unable to qualify for a loan due to debt ratio requirements or time on the job. Buyers who utilize owner financing find they save on closing costs because they aren't paying loan points or lender fees. Sellers might offer a lower interest rate to the buyer than a buyer would get from a conventional lender, and the term of the financing can be negotiated between the seller and buyer ...

Zambrano's last rant? Olney: Ricketts seen as smart owner
2011-06-06 00:47:00 Final blow-up?Now that Carlos Zambrano has blown up again at his own teammates, is this finally his ticket out of town? The thing is Zambrano has pitched well enough for it to happen. Let's wait and see if Jim Hendry slams Z or dismisses it as frustration.

Paradox: Green-Loving Washington State About to Penalize Electric Car Owner
2011-04-26 21:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Some people think that marriage is the most absurd institution ever invented by man. But those that think so are ignoring what is truly the most idiotic, paradoxically absurd practice in all of human history: government. Yeah, yeah, necessary evil and all, but still there is nothing that exemplifies human folly better than politics and Washington State has uncorked a doozie for us today. From coast to coast and all over the world liberals are mindlessly going gaga for green. Anything that smacks of greenism is, with religious fervor, promoted and revered. The electric automobile, for instance, is one of the left's dream modes of transportation. Pursuant to that dreamy green dream, liberals have made sure...

Grizzlies owner didn't want to send Mayo to Bulls?
2011-02-25 06:34:00 K.C. Johnson says the Bulls made a strong push for O.J. Mayo after all. One problem may have been Chicago area native and Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley. There's a longstanding theory Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley, who has a home in the St. Charles area, doesn't like doing business with the Bulls for competitive reasons. Whether that factored into the Grizzlies turning down what appears to be a more substantial offer than that of the Pacers is unknown.Instead the Grizzlies tried shipping Mayo to the Pacers before the league killed it for not making the deadline. The Bulls offer was better, which makes some wonder if Heisley really doesn't want to deal with Chicago. The Bulls say they are looking to add a...
