		<title>Mortgage News From our Friend Dan Green</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Look, it&#8217;s my job to  bang the gong &#8212; mortgage rates are low, folks.  I&#8217;ve been saying it  every day for a week, both here and on Facebook.
But don&#8217;t just take my word for it.  Check this video.
A Balanced, On-Air Review Of Mortgage Rates
When mortgages make the news, it tends to be stories of human  interest or exorbitant interest rates.
It&#8217;s rare to hear a newscaster come right out and say &#8220;now is the  time to refinance your home&#8221;.  It&#8217;s even more rare when they get the  message right.
NBC knocked it out of the park with this on-air interview.  The advice for homeowners is  timely, accurate, and relevant for anyone with a mortgage. It doesn&#8217;t  matter if you live in Cincinnati or somewhere else &#8212; this rapid-paced,  3-minute video is a must watch.
It&#8217;s Your Second Chance To Ride The Refi Boom
If you missed the Refi Boom of November 2009, here&#8217;s your second  chance.  Watch the video for solid advice on finding low mortgages  rates, plus knowing when you should shop for a rate versus when  you should just lock one.
Other topics covered include:

Why were the experts so wrong about rates moving higher this summer?
How much money can you save if your mortgage rate falls by 1  percent?
Should you think about buying a bigger home now that rates are down.

The advice offered is matter-of-fact and centered.  There is no  cheerleading and the message is honest.
I like that.
Get Low Mortgage Rates Before Mortgage Rates Go Up
First things first &#8212; you can&#8217;t get a mortgage until you apply for  one.  Thankfully, there&#8217;s a lot of ways to apply.
(1) You can find an online form on a bank website; (2) You can walk  into your local bank branch and sit down with somebody; or (3) // You  can send me an email and set up to do it by phone in 4 minutes.
All things considered, it&#8217;s usually fastest and easiest to apply by  phone.
Then, once we&#8217;ve taken the application, I&#8217;ll get you an underwriting  decision and loan terms within a few hours.  You can take it, or pass on  it &#8212; whichever suits you best. You can&#8217;t know your choices until you  check it out, however.
Mortgage rates are low and they likely won&#8217;t stay that way. Already,  they&#8217;re up about 1/4 percent from last week. Better to act sooner rather  than later.

		<title>Postgreen Does It Right in Philadelphia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Going green &amp; saving green seem to be all the rage these days, which is why the real estate development firm Postgreen has the right idea.
Browsing aimlessly through an airline magazine trying to pass the time on a boring flight, I came across an article that literally had me rip the page out to keep! (Sorry Airtran) It was titled, &#8220;Reduce, Reuse, Real Estate&#8221; and it gave me great idea on an interesting concept taking place right in Philadelphia!
Postgreen is the source behind the 100K House, a case study in which they are attempting to build a LEED-platinmum certified Philadelphia home for only $100,000 in construction costs. For those of you unfamiliar with the high cost of green building&#8230;this is an incredible goal! Postgreen is aiming to prove that green homes can be built affordably if designed properly. Being &#8220;eco-friendly&#8221; will now hopefully be &#8220;eco-nomicially friendly&#8221; too!

After reading this article I was thoroughly impressed with Postgreen and their use of their blog as a source for ideas and information&#8230;because after all, here at CondoDomain we value our blogs in the same way.
Postgreen plans to build ten houses in Philadelphia in 2009 and a projected 40-50 in 2010. To learn more about Postgreen visit their website or their blog.
Stay tuned to our Philadelphia Condo Loft blog for more information on Green Building and Modern Condos in Philadelphia!
