Property Listing Department keeps

Property Listing Property Listing Department Home Departments SERVICES PROVIDED To fulfill its mission, the Property Listing Department keeps ownership records current for all Marinette County property by processing recorded documents which effect title to property and updating the data base on those records. In conjunction with this procedure, property maps are drafted by geographic location and kept current with regard to property boundaries. This information is used by the assessor as a tool in assessing property under his jurisdiction, and also by interested parties that have title to or an interest in the land. Secondly, the Property Listing Department verifies and enters into the data base the information which is needed to produce the real estate and personal property assessment rolls, tax rolls, and tax bills. The office also orders and distributes all state-mandated assessment and taxation forms. Background Prior to 1946, all of Marinette County's assessment rolls, tax rolls, and tax bills were handwritten and manually calculated by the taxation district assessors, clerks, and treasurers. In 1945 the first Addressograph machine was purchased, and in 1946 the assessment rolls, tax rolls, and tax bills were produced on that equipment. However, all numeric entries, as well as all mathematical calculations, remained the responsibility of the local taxation district officials. In 1981, Marinette County purchased its first computer. In 1982, computer programs were written to contain land information data, and in 1983 the Property Listing Department began to enter parcel data into the data base. By year end 1983, 13 of our 25 districts had computer generated rolls and bills. By 1984, the parcel information for all 25 districts had been entered, and that year, for the first time in Marinette County history, 40,995 tax bills were produced using computer technology, thereby eliminating manual mathematical calculations and numeric entries. Since that time, those computer programs have been enhanced to include additional data. The goal of the department is to have parcel information available via the internet by 2005.

HOME LOAN? The two

Veteran Home Loans from the VA Mortgage Center 800-405-6682 Contact Why a VA Loan? Pre-Qualify VA Loan SHOULD I GET A VETERAN HOME LOAN? The two main reasons for using your eligibility to obtain a VA home loan are because it can save you a great deal of money and it is much easier for you to qualify for one of these loans at a low rate. Pre-qualify now for a VA Loan A VA Home Loan can save you money by giving you an excellent rate, with no monthly mortgage insurance. And since it is easier to qualify for a VA military loan as compared to a conventional mortgage, individuals with poor credit are given a large advantage by using their eligibility for a VA Loan. BENEFITS OF VETERAN HOME LOANS There is zero down payment required when purchasing a home. If you have bad credit, you are likely to get a much lower rate with a VA loan compared to a conventional loan (and if you have been improving your credit history for the past year, you may be able to get the same low interest rates that are available to those with good credit. Even with a Loan-to-Value of 100%, there is no monthly Mortgage Insurance required for a VA home loan. The VA mortgage loan is guaranteed with no money down for any loan up to $359,650. VA mortgage loans are often assumable. VA has released a hybrid ARM product. Veterans now have a choice of a Fixed rate or an Adjustable rate VA mortgage. Individuals with poor credit are more likely to qualify for a loan and, most of the time, you will see significant savings as a result of a lower rate on your loan (the VA also offers extra benefits for disabled veterans). Find out how much you can save with a VA Loan. ARE THERE ANY FEES FOR A VA MORTGAGE LOAN? There is a Funding Fee required by the Department of Veteran Affairs that varies between 0-3.3% of the amount of the military loan depending on your current Veteran Status. The funding fee is added into the total loan amount, so the borrower is not required to pay this out of pocket. To determine the exact funding fee, see the funding fee chart . Benefits for disabled veterans dictate that if you are 10% or more disabled due to active military service, you will not be required to pay a funding fee. Those which are required to have a funding fee may lower their fee by putting money down on their VA home purchase. WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO GET A VA LOAN You will need a certificate of eligibility to qualify. Whether you are a first time user or you have used your eligibility in the past, you must have your certificate. A certificate can be mailed directly to you if you fill out this short form .
