Many other local builders are cutting building costs by turning once-standard features into a la carte add-ons. At Mid-Atlantic, though, a home just isn’t a home without a fireplace.

Even as a standard feature, our fireplaces are larger (42”) than the optional (33”) fireplaces offered by our competition. And because each unit is entirely gas operated they are safer to use, easily started (just a flick of a switch) and can be a cheaper way to stay warm this season.

Additionally, Mid-Atlantic Builders allows customer’s to add several fireplaces throughout their home. Enjoy a romantic evening in your Owner’s Suite while the blazing embers set the mood, or relax with a book in the lower level Recreation Room while warming your toes in front of glowing logs. With the largest selection of mantels and surrounds of any builder in town, there are plenty of choices as to how you want your fireplace to look.

With fewer hours of daylight and cold and icy weather ahead, finding joy in the small comforts of your home shouldn’t be about costing more, it should be about enjoying more.

According to the article, “The national median price in the second quarter was $176,900, up from $174,200 in the same quarter last year and up from $166,400 in the January-to-March period.”

But fluctuations can be somewhat cyclical: The median price “falls in the winter and rises in the summer months. That’s because families with children traditional move during the summer and buy larger homes.”

Rates have fallen significantly over the past two months. Investors, concerned with the European debt crisis, have poured money into the safety of Treasury bonds. Treasury yields have fallen and so have mortgage rates, which tend to track yields on long-term Treasuries. Mortgage rates are directly inked to yields on Treasuries and yields on mortgage-backed securities.

WEEK IN REVIEW: Low Mortgage Interest Rates Will be Here Today, Gone Tomorrow

“Don’t be fooled by today’s low rates,” said Former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan this week, adding that the present low inflation and low long-term rate environment have fostered a “sense of complacency that can have dire consequences.” Mr. Greenspan also that “long-term rate increases can emerge with unexpected suddenness.” The fact is, there are no fundamental reasons why home loan rates should be as low as they presently are. The confluence of factors all coming together at the same time have made for an incredible low rate opportunity, but it won’t last long and can change very quickly.

Forecast for the COMING WEEK: Upcoming Federal Reserve Meeting & Mortgage Rates

On Wednesday the Fed will release their rate decision and Policy Statement at the conclusion of their Federal Open Market Committee meeting. There is speculation that the Fed may lower their 2010 and 2011 growth targets for GDP making for a very interesting and important Fed Meeting next week, as it could have an important bearing on the direction of rates. Weak economic news normally causes money to flow out of Stocks and into Bonds, helping Bonds and home loan rates improve, while strong economic news normally has the opposite result.

MARKET VIEW: Students & Credit Card Debt

Using credit cards wisely is important for people of all ages, especially for young people just starting out. In fact, a recent study revealed that 84% of college undergraduates had at least one credit card and half of college students had four or more cards. What’s more, the average (mean) balance grew to $3,173, which was higher than the findings in previous studies.
