Home Loans shouldn't hold surprises

Having just been through the whole debacle of buying and selling a house within the last couple of years, I know first-hand what a hassle it can be. The money issues endlessly confuse me. I had no idea how they chose an interest rate for you, and I was certainly clueless on what an ARM was.

A Web site like PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com provides borrowers with great tools when they make the decision to buy a home. The site explains the financial aspects of mortgages in detail so you won’t be in the dark when securing a home loan.

So many people are in the dark when they get a mortgage, and trust the first thing a mortgage broker tells them. I had a friend who bought a house using an interest only loan, and had to declare bankruptcy when his loan was due and he couldn’t pay it off.

Don’t let this happen to you. Do your homework! PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com provides a Knowledge Base and FAQ to help answer every question a potential borrower could have. But it is up to you to do your own research before you get a mortgage. Find out if you need a fixed rate mortgage or an adjustable rate mortgage. Research how much you can actually afford, and what your payments will be with the interest rates available to you.

A mortgage calculator is a great tool to estimate your monthly payments and figure out exactly what you can afford. I suggest taking advantage of this instrument, so there are no surprises when your first house payment comes due.

Through PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com you can find a home loan with a competitive interest rate that will fit your budget. For testimonials on the effectiveness of PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com, check out their broker blogs, in which brokers and customers alike share their experiences.

Blogsvertise!

As I'm sure most of you know, you can make money blogging. In fact some people make very good money blogging. Heather Armstrong, better known as Dooce, supports her family from her blog alone. She made so much last year through her blog, that her husband was able to quit his job. (My husband is still holding out hope for this!)

The question is, do you know the best way to go about making money on your blog? There are several Ad networks out there, with Google Adsense being the most popular, and Yahoo Publisher Network (YPN) getting off to a good start. But have you looked into Blogsvertise?

Freelance Networks

Over the last four years, I have met several mothers who have left the corporate world to stay home with their children. These same women are about to lose their minds because they miss the adult interaction, as well as the extra income.

Depending on your particular skillset, there are several freelance networks available which may be of use to you. Web sites such as www.writers-editors.com, www.freelancers.net, and www.guru.com help match individuals with people looking for their services.

Surprisingly, freelance work is available in almost any field you can imagine including the following:

• writing/editing
• marketing
• graphic design
• photography
• sales
• fashion
• accounting
• admin support
• business consulting
• engineering
• software development

If you have professional skills that have been put on the backburner, or if you are just looking to make additional income, check out the many freelance networks available on the internet or in your area, and find the right one for you!

Cookies, plants, produce and more

Most larger cities (and some smaller ones) have a Farmers Market. They can range in size and offer several varieties of merchandise. Some are large enough to take up several city blocks!

In my area, the Farmers Market offers a wide array of merchandise from a diverse range of vendors. Of course, there is fresh produce and fruit, as well as all types of plants and flowers. Or maybe you are like me, and your specialty lies more in the kitchen area. At the Farmers Market, you can find anything from pies, cakes, cookies, jams, jellies, breads – you name it!

Our Farmers Market takes place on Wednesdays and Saturdays from March through October. If you have a green thumb and can grow plants or produce, this may be the place for you. Being more a fan of the baked goods, I am planning to sign up to sell cookies, pies and breads next season.

Now, you may think, “Oh, that’s quaint, but not for me.” But, let’s do the math. I priced a lot of the goods at the Farmers Market this summer. Pies sell for $15 each. Cookies were selling 6 for $8.50 or $2.50 a piece!!!! One batch of cookies makes about four dozen. You could bank $68 on one batch of cookies alone! Are you seeing the revenue potential?

One local woman was so successful selling pies at the Farmers Market each week that a restaurant contracted her. She now has a successful catering business!

Check with your local Chamber of Commerce for information on your local Farmers Market and vendor availability.

Human billboards

We all know how to make money selling ad space on our blogs, but have you ever thought about selling ad space on your body? There are certain companies who will pay you to be a human billboard.

I originally heard about this on eBay. One man was paid $37,000 to walk around for a week with an ad for a snore remedy on his forehead. I have also read about pregnant women selling ad space on their bellies. (I wish I had thought of that one!)

Last year, another man made $1000 by selling ad space on his arms. He has since started a business, LivingAdSpace.com, where you can register for free. His site claims to help you make extra cash by selling ad space on your body, clothes, pets, car, wheelchair, house, or anything else you can imagine. I have a feeling the more creative, the better on this one.

There are companies such as Body Bidz, Body Billboardz, and HumanAdSpace.com.

I’m not sure which one is the best, but I am going to research this. Would it be wrong to sell ad space on my baby if it went toward her college fund?

The Money Blog!

Welcome to Money Making Planet! Four years ago, I had a baby and made the decision to be a stay-at-home mom. Like many women in that situation, this is a very difficult decision when you are used to two incomes.

I knew the only way I could stay at home is if I found a way to make money from home.

In four years, I have tried everything imaginable to make money, and I’ve researched even more. I decided to help other people benefit from my findings. At Money Making Planet, I will detail the things I have tried that work, and the things that haven’t. I will offer tips on money-making scams to avoid, and new ideas from friends and readers. I will help you make the extra cash you need!
