Hi:
This morning the woman I know from Bangor Savings was telling me about
their latest mortgages and they're an incredible deal. There is a Rural
Development Loan that covers all local communities except Portland and
South Portland. Of the islands, only Long and Chebeague quality. No
money down and the rate is 5 1/8%. For $150K house it comes out to
monthly mortgage payments of $816.26. Add in property tax ($825/yr?)
and mortgage insurance ($40/mo) and subtract the $8,000 credit from the
government and it's still cheaper than a lot of rentals. Two people
earning $10/hr each can qualify. It's for first-time home buyers but
that includes anyone who has not owned a home in the last 3 years. The
applicants need a credit score of 620 or higher - she said a lot of
people's low scores are a result of not having enough credit lines and
the best way to improve your score is to have 4 active "trade lines"
which could include a car loan, credit cards, school loans, etc. Bangor
Savings has $7 billion dollars to lend right now - Can't see how it can
get any better than this!
