How To Make Your Property Worth More

By Jim Thorpe


If you are a veteran and you are beginning to see that your debt is only going to continue to build and build, you may want to consider doing some debt reconstructing. This entails a variety of possibilities, but essentially helps you begin to eliminate your debt. This process is also referred to as "refinancing," and Veteran's Administration offers a special deal if you have returned from any kind of military service after serving for longer than 180 days.

Scenario 1: You need a better interest rate. Let's say for example that you are paying off a loan or a debt that has a high interest rate. The more time you take to pay that loan off, the more interest it will accrue.

If your house has a walkway to the front door, make sure that it too is well-kept. If your walkway edges your lawn, make sure your lawn is well trimmed and a healthy green. Plant flowers along the way and make sure the walk itself is in good shape. You might try replacing old concrete with a pretty brick or cobblestone path.

Again, the first impression of the inside of your house is extremely important. Make sure it is freshly painted, clean, and well-lit. Do what you can to make it feel bright and welcoming. Neutral bases with bright highlights are a great way to paint and decorate for a modern look.

Officially known by the government as an Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL), the VA streamline loan is a home loan that refinances the current home loan of veteran to reflect the reduced interest rates that are available to the home loan through the VA home loan process.

If you cannot afford your monthly payment on your debt, you can reduce the amount of money that you pay back every month. The repayment period will extend itself in order for you to still be able to pay back the loan in full eventually.

Scenario 4: You've changed your mind about your contract. Perhaps when you first needed a loan for your mortgage or whatever it may be, you decided that you wanted a variable rate as the rate was low at the moment.

However, this rate depends on the market and can easily go up. At this point you may regret your decision and want to switch to a fixed rate loan. Veteran's Administration's refinance loans give you the opportunity to do just this, and reduce or alter the risk of your loan.

If you are struggling financially, use the money you can receive through VA loans to help upgrade your home, then sell it for much more than it would have gone for earlier. The new owner will get a nicer home and you will have made your VA home loan money worth so much more!
