I am now 54. To deny a real estate bubble is to ignore the obvious market fundamentals. Obviously, there are different factors in different markets, but as a longtime investor/Realtor/broker there is no logical argument against real estate prices declining 10 percent to 30 percent in the "hot markets." The South Florida condo market will be a blood bath. The median income cannot buy the median house in most markets; interest rates will continue creeping up; speculators have driven prices to insane levels and when the going gets rough they will walk from a lot of residential properties. Most "hot" areas are becoming alarmingly overbuilt with residential inventories rising; lenders have ticking time bombs in their ARMs, negative equity and interest-only mortgages. Do your homework. Be wary of those whose opinions are tainted by the fact that they or their company have a stake in this insane market continuing. Michael H. Mosieur Mosieur Business Brokers Re: ' America closes doors to architectural expression ' (Dec. 26) Dear Editor: This is one of the most insightful articles I've read in a long time. We might add, "And what are we doing to our children as we worship at the altar of the mundane?" Years ago I read that about 1,000 children were tested for creativity just prior to entering kindergarten. Eighty-five percent of the children tested "creative." Twelve years later the same group was tested, and only 35 percent of the students tested "creative." What happened to the children along the scholastic way, and does the country even care? Where's the outcry? Isn't the creativity of our generations one of our most precious resources? It's been said that we're only one generation away from losing our freedom. Could it be that with escalating offshore competition in view, and stultifying U.S. scholastic models utilized, that the above advisory could also apply to our economic freedom? A.

Presidential Bank: Home Equity Line of Credit Information Presidential Loan Products.....

Interest Rate after Introductory Period: Loans of 30,000 or more: Prime Rate Loans of less than $30,000: Prime Rate +1% As of today, the Prime interest rate is equivalent to a rate of 7.25% APR, and 1.00% over the Prime interest rate is equivalent to a rate of 8.25% APR. The Prime rate use is the prime rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal. APR is the Annual Percentage Rate, as computed under applicable federal regulations. After the introductory period, the interest rate is subject to monthly adjustment, as the Prime rate changes. However, the APR will never exceed 24%. Closing Costs Waived You pay absolutely nothing to establish your Presidential Home Equity Line. No closing costs -- no application fee -- no appraisal fee -- no points. This can save you hundreds of dollars! This no closing cost feature is subject to the terms and conditions of the Home Equity Line Agreement, which require that the line must remain open for a minimum of 42 months and that the finance charges must be at least $1,000 during the period the line is open. Tax Deductions Unlike credit card interest and other non-mortgage interest you may pay, you can deduct the interest you pay on a home equity line of credit for federal income tax purposes, subject to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Drawing Against Your Line You may draw against your line at any time, simply by writing a check. Free checks are provided. Eligible Property Owner occupied single-family residences. Lending Area Nationwide (state restrictions may apply) Maximum Loan To Value Ratio The combined amounts of your first mortgage and the dollar limit on your Home Equity Line may not exceed 80% of the value of your home. Repayment Monthly payments are required, whenever the Home Equity Line of Credit has a principal balance outstanding. Principal may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The Line has an initial draw period of 15 years (180 months), during which advances may be made, followed by a repayment period of 8 years and 4 months (100 months). During the first 180 months of the term of the Home Equity Line of Credit, principal may be advanced and repaid at any time, subject to the approved maximum loan amount. Whenever a loan balance is outstanding, monthly payments of interest are required. After the end of the first 180 months, no further advances of principal will be made, and the line of credit must be repaid over the succeeding 100 months in monthly installments equal to 1% of the principal outstanding at the beginning of this repayment period, plus accrued interest. Other Terms All applications are subject to credit approval. Adequate property insurance is required. The minimum draw amount is $100. If you fail to qualify for the waiver of closing costs, you will be charged for your credit report, property appraisal, mortgage recording fees and other out-of-pocket costs of closing your loan; these costs generally total between $250 and $1,550. We will provide an itemization of the closing costs of your loan upon request.
