Home Loan Products To Consider: Financing Southwest Montana Homes

In lieu of conventional lending programs there are many other, more flexible programs available to help those desiring to achieve homeownership. Out of the many home loan programs available, the VA, FHA, and USDA programs are the more popular as each provides flexible eligibility requirements and competitive interest rates, in addition to other numerous benefits. 

All a potential homeowner has to do is simply pick whichever program best suits their needs, and, if they are eligible, begin enjoying a better home buying experience that will require less out-of-pocket expenses.

The VA Loan

Are you or were you a member of the military? Consider a VA loan. A VA home loan is a loan partially backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and is available to veterans or active duty service members. Because the VA ensures part of each loan, borrowers receive flexible and competitive loan terms making it ideal for any prospective home buyer. Benefits of the program include:

· zero down payment 

· no required mortgage insurance

· flexible debt-to-income ratios

The FHA Loan

Looking to purchase your first home, or just wanting to update your current home? An FHA loan may be the best option for you. The FHA home loan program offers a variety of different programs to help borrowers purchase their first home, renovate a fixer-upper, or even update their current home to be more energy efficient. FHA even has a financing option for manufactured housing and mobile homes. Benefits accompanying a FHA loan include:

· 3.5% down payment

· low closing costs

· down payments can be made in the form of a gift

The USDA Loan

Looking to live outside city limits, or in a more rural area? A USDA loan might be for you. Through its Department of Rural Development, the USDA provides two types of loans:  a Guaranteed Housing Loan, and a more flexible option, the Direct Housing loan, for low-income households. In addition to offering the comforts of country living, a USDA loan offers:

· Zero down payment

· No mortgage insurance

· flexible credit guidelines

All of these home loan programs provide potential borrowers, even those with imperfect credit, with the opportunity to purchase a home. Over 75% of each of the program's participants would not have been able to achieve homeownership though a conventional loan. 

Although the programs all offer flexible eligibility requirements, many approved lenders will desire a mid-range credit score of at least 620.  Even if a potential borrower is concerned about their credit or their eligibility, they are still encouraged to apply as borrowers with a history of foreclosure and/ or bankruptcy have been approved in the past.

(Thanks to: Brandon Fischer is a blogger for VA Benefit Blog, a blog dedicated to keeping veterans up to date with all their VA benefits.)

Al Roker and NBC's Today Show hit Bozeman, Montana, giving  $1,230,000 to a local charity on the morning of the longest day of the year, June 22, 2010.

At 4:45am Roker showed up at Bozeman's Eagle Mount, a local organization providing quality therapeutic recreational opportunities for people with disabilities or cancer.

Donations included nine acres of land adjacent to Eagle Mount's present location, a 15-passenger van, a quarter horse from Tom Brokaw, sports equipment, four solar panels, a truckload of ranch supplies from Murdoch's, and other gifts.

Al Roker is the face behind the Today Show's "Lend a Hand" charitable organization, which will visit five cities across the United States during the week of June 21th - 25th, 2010.

Lend a Hand "...helps small charities across the country that work toward improving conditions in their communities."

Have you ever imagined  driving a team of sled dogs? Spirit of the North sled dog trips at Big Sky, Montana's Moonlight Basin Resort allows you to do so...

And, it's not as hard as you may think because the dogs know the trail; you just need to keep your balance, apply drag or brakes, and move your body like a skier.

The Huskies used for these eight mile trips come from Montana's sled dog racer Jessie Royer's vast kennel of Alaska-Siberian mixed dogs (greyhound and other breeds mixed in).

As we (five-year old boy included) helped hitch the teams up, these lean, work-loving canines began yipping, then yapping, and finally jumping and howling, filling the air to a fever-pitch of canine cacophony.

My husband drove ours and as soon as he released the brake the dogs shot down the hill and away into the trees, hot on the trail of the lead team.

Over hills and hummocks we raced, never sure what was around the next bend in the trees...exciting, exhilirating...and the vistas of the snow-covered Madison Mountain Range and the northwest side of Big Sky's Lone Peak...well, you'll just have to try it for yourself!

According to the International Federation of Sleddog Sports, "sled dog activities may have existed for almost as long as the relationship between dogs and humans, in the regions where snow was a seasonal probability."

In the 1920's gold miners returning to New England brought sled dog racing where its popularity soared.

And into the 1930's, sled dogs were the primary means for the Post Office to reach remote places to deliver Alaska's mail.

Already in 2009, the number of people departing Bozeman Airport - Gallatin Field (BZN), Belgrade, Montana, has surpassed all previous records...

...so the present 28,000 sf, $30 million, Phase III expansion of the Gallatin Valley's airport, designed by Bozeman's Prugh and Lenon Architects, comes at the perfect time to accommodate the apt projection that Bozeman's yearly air traffic will continue increasing at the rate of 5 percent each year well into the next decade.

Gallatin Field, services Bozeman, Belgrade, Big Sky, and a good portion of the southwest Montana region. Presently, Montana's Gallatin Valley region continues to grow and, according to October 2009 figures, Gallatin Valley and Bozeman's unemployment hovers around 5.5%.

In 2008, two carriers into Bozeman, Allegiant Air and Frontier Airlines, increased the number of travelers to Bozeman and southwest Montana with their Las Vegas and Denver flights. Beginning Dec. 17, 2009 United begins seasonal non-stop service to San Francisco's International Airport (this seasonal service will end March 27, 2010.) United Express has also added a nonstop, service to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport (ORD).

Gallatin Field's constant flow of corporate and cargo planes, four air flight schools (including a helicopter flight school), and rising private jet traffic are what keeps Bozeman's regional airport, and a large number of Bozeman area residents, employed. Gallatin Airport employs over 400 people through almost 30 companies whose offices reside right at Gallatin Field.

According to the Gallatin Airport Authority, which oversees Bozeman's airport operations, the new expansion will add four gates to the existing five,  for a total of 9 gates, which will still leave additional space for future population growth in and increased tourism into the Bozeman region.

Question: Whose plane was the first and only 747 ever to land at Bozeman's Gallatin Field Airport?

Builders of Residential Montana Real Estate...

And builders of homes in the rest of the Northwest region of the US in 2009 began building residential properties, including condominiums and town houses, at a rate of between 8 and 9 percent.

Fifty-nine percent of year 2009 home sales throughout the United States have been incumbent upon FHA, VA, or USDA home loan programs.

In the Northwest Region of the US the rate of the use of these government loan programs has been fifty-one percent:

1. Veteran's Administration (VA) loans, eleven percent.
2. Federal Housing Administration (FHA), thirty-four percent.
3. United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), six percent home financing programs

Throughout the United States in 2009, the use of one of these three government home mortgage loan programs was through a No-Equity high home Loan-To-Value (LTV) rate of between ninety-six and a half and one hundred percent, which basically means home buyers were able to secure a home loan almost equal to, or in some cases equal to or greater than, the home's value at the time of purchase. Some LTV loans surpass a home's assesed value by as much as 25 percent!

According to the National Association of Realtors...

NAR says, so far in 2009, the trend is: First-time Home Buyers have pushed 45% of all US home sales.

In concert with this national trend upward in US home sales, which was 13.0% for existing home sales in the Western part of the United States, interest in the Bozeman, Montana Real Estate Residential Home Market, including interest in the Bozeman Luxury Real Estate Market, had been trending upward in the last few weeks of the third quarter of 2009.

Bozeman and the Surrounding Area's Sold Data For Years 2003 Through 2009 

* DOM: Days on Market

The Year 2009 Pending Bozeman Home Sales Breakdown Through September 2009:

• Bozeman - 111
• Belgrade - 42
• Big Sky - 17

The total number of homes sold in 2009 in the Bozeman real estate market appears to be trending toward 2008's sold total but with a trend downward in Bozeman area home sales prices, which is good for Bozeman home buyers.

Good News Update: with the October 28, 2009 Congressional (Senate) action on the distinct possibility of extending the Home Buyer Tax Credit, Bozeman home sales for 2009 may end up being higher than the number of Bozeman homes sold in 2008. After Senate approval, the Bill would have to go to the House and on to President Obama, who, along with some key Democrats, is a bit reluctant to extend the tax credit because of the additional cost to tax payers.
