Middletown, RI is where many of the beaches that make Newport famous are actually located in Middletown RI. Breathtaking ocean views and dramatic cliffs characterize the area.

A town with many historic sights, Middletown is the home of St. George’s School and other private academies. If eating out is something

that you enjoy, Middletown offers many options, including the Atlantic Beach Club, a Middletown landmark since the 1920’s. The restaurant became a favorite amongst locals and travelers alike during the prohibition, and has remained a favorite long since then.

Little Compton’s South Shore & Goosewing beaches nudge up against the state line of Massachusetts, one of the few 2 state beaches in New England.

Little Compton RI has often been referred to as “Rhode Island’s Secret Coast”, it is just out of the way and people who live here like that just fine. Little Compton, RI is a

As someone who has grown up near Newport my entire life, it has become one of my favorite places to spend time. I have learned( as has anyone who spends time in Newport has) that if it is summer in Newport, it’s going to be busy and I can expect some traffic. This is why I have come to love Middletown & Portsmouth RI, Aquidneck Island’s other small towns.

Which Is Better In Today’s Market Fixed-Rate Mortgages Or Adjustable-Rate Mortgages?

by Peter DeFusco

MORTGAGE RATES FOR ARMS & FIXED RATE LOANS As recently as 10 years, mortgage borrowers had tens of choices with respect to picking "the best mortgage" for their needs. Today, there are basically two -- fixed-rate mortgages (FRM) and adjustable-rate mortgages (ARM).

It can be confusing to know which loan type is best for your individual needs; and, lenders ask basic questions to help you decide whether to go with an ARM or fixed.

• How long do you plan to stay in the home?

• How often do you Refinance • Are you comfortable with the idea of "changing mortgage payments?"

There are no right or wrong answers, necessarily, but after understanding the benefits and risks of fixed-rate mortgages and adjustable-rate mortgages, as a home buyer or refinancing household, you'll be in a better position to choose the loans that's right for you.

ALL ABOUT FIXED RATE MORTGAGES A fixed-rate mortgage is exactly what it sounds like. It's a mortgage for which the interest rate is fixed for the life of the loan.

Fixed rate mortgages are available in multiple terms, where "term" is used to describe the length for which the mortgage contract is in place. With fixed-rate mortgages, when the

76 52 52

NEHomeLife.com April 52 NEHomeLife.com | April May| 2014 2015 2015 NEHomeLife.com | July 2012

term is complete, the loan is paid-in-full.

The monthly payment on a fixed-rate loan is inversely proportional to its term. The more years in a loan, the lower its monthly payment.

This is because, with a shorter loan term, the homeowner repays its lender over a lesser period of time.

The most common loan terms are 30 years and 15 years. 20-year terms and 10-year terms are common, too.

The benefits of a shorter-term loan are lower mortgage rates as compared to longer-term loans; and less mortgage interest paid to the lender over time.

• 30-year fixed rate mortgage : $2,993 monthly; $452,000 interest over time • 20-year fixed rate mortgage : $3,749 monthly; $274,000 interest over time • 15-year fixed rate mortgage : $4,383 monthly; $163,000 interest over time • 10-year fixed rate mortgage : $6,040 monthly; $99,000 interest ALL ABOUT ADJUSTABLE-RATE MORTGAGES An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is a mortgage for which the interest rate can vary over time.

Mortgage rates are often lower with an

adjustable-rate mortgage versus for a comparable fixed rate loan because the homeowner assumes some of the long-term interest rate risk which is fully-assigned to the bank with a fixed-rate loan.

Most ARMs works like this: • For some preset, fixed number of years, the ARM's mortgage rate remains unchanged • After the fixed period ends, the mortgage rate changes based on a preset formula • Annually, the ARM's mortgage rate changes again based on the same formula The majority of today's adjustable-rate mortgages adjust once annually until the original loan balance has been paid in full -- a process which last as long as the loan's term (e.g.; 30 years, 15 years).

The most common index used for ARMs is

• • the 12-month LIBOR rate, which is currently 0.58%. Margins are typically 2.25% or 2.50%.

Today's homeowners with adjusting mortgage rates, therefore, get new mortgage rates as low as 2.83%.

The good news is that adjustable-rate mortgages cannot adjust too high, too quickly. This is because ARMs come with "adjustment caps" WHICH IS BETTER FOR YOU : FIXED RATE MORTGAGE OR ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGE There are a lot of reasons to choose a fixed-rate mortgage over an adjustable-rate mortgage; just as the reverse is true. The "best" product will depend on your individual risk tolerance, and your short- and long-term financial goals.

However, in recent years, as fixed rate mortgage rates have dropped, the relative value of an ARM's low starting mortgage rate has diminished.

With ARMs, there are fewer low-closing cost and zero-closing cost mortgage options available because Wall Street doesn't value ARMs as highly as fixed-rate product. Talk to your loan officer about which product fits you best.

Quality, Honesty & Hardwork

Hot Home Upgrades

By Greg Sampson

Homeowners today are looking for ways to improve the efficiency of their living spaces for both economic and environmental reasons. Two hot home upgrades include Geothermal Heating and Cooling as well as Home Automation. Upgrade your home to be greener and safer while putting your hard earned income back into your household budget this year.

GEOTHERMAL HEATING & COOLING Imagine saving 25-50% on your utility bills and receiving a nice 30% tax credit of the cost of the system for keeping your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter? You can make your dream into reality by using a small amount of electricity to transfer heat to and from the ground to your home.

Installing a geothermal system is the equivalent of taking two cars off the road or planting 750 trees making it the most environmentally safe system available today. In fact the system can be easily connected to your hot water tank so that the heat

70

NEHomeLife.com | April 2015

removed from your home during the cooling cycle can be deposited directly into your hot water heater providing you virtually free hot water. Although this more common in new construction it something to consider if your heating and cooling system is ready for an upgrade.

HOME AUTOMATION Would knowing that your home is secure, you didn’t leave a light on or that your heat isn’t on for no reason be important to you? With home automation you can monitor all of these and more from your mobile phone, tablet or computer from anywhere in the world. One of our favorites is ADT Pulse, which allows you to arm and disarm your security system along with lock and unlock doors. You can also monitor your thermostat and lighting plus view a live video feed. All of these features are accomplished through their Z-Wave technology, which wirelessly allows your homes electronics to communicate.

ADT is the most respected name in the security business.

We've been protecting America's homes and families for over a century.

ADT offers total home security and home automation solutions: • 24 Hour Alarm Monitoring • Homeowner Savings • ADT Guarantees and Discounts

Organize Your Life:

Custom Closet Geeks has the Solution and it works!

Organization is the art of having things in the right places in life so we may have easy access to them. A simple premise but in reality the lack of organization accounts for most of the wasted time in our lives. While it’s true that our phones and computers have organized our contacts, schedules, workflow and communications our living and working spaces have lagged well behind the trend.

I am perplexed why every home that 72

NEHomeLife.com | April 2015

has been built in the last 100 years makes little or no provisions for organization and function to accommodate all the things that we acquire in a life. So lets see, I am going to pay $350,000 for this great house, but there is no where to put anything I own where I can see it and have easy access to it. With all the other pressures of time in life you would think that seeing and finding things with ease would be a first priority for all of us each and every day.

A simple premise but in reality, the lack of organization accounts for most of the wasted time in our lives. While it is true that our phones and computers have organized our contacts, schedules, workflow and communications our living and working spaces have lagged well behind the trend. So I can fit 2000 documents into my PDA and find any one of them in a minute and forward it to whomever, but I still have trouble finding the right cloths to wear every day or that can of mushrooms for my soufflé that I bought 2 days ago.

I am perplexed why every home that has been built in the last 200 years makes little or no provisions for organization and function to accommodate all the things that we acquire in a life time.

we have on our time, you would think that seeing and finding things with ease would be a first priority for all of us each and every day. Dressing well is not about what you have but more about how well you see it before you put it on.

Metro South Living Attleboros, Mansfield, Easton, Foxboro, Plainville

By NEHL Staff

The western most communities of Bristol County, MA and southern communities in Norfolk County offer some the best value in the state for homeowners. These small cities and abutting rural towns have a quality of life and great proximity that make them popular choices for families who work both in Providence and the Boston as well.

The most western Bristol County city of Attleboro and North Attleboro are centers of culture and shopping with full rail access to Boston and points south. Once a prominent jewelry manufacturing town, North Attleboro is now a thriving commercial and diverse industrial center that features some truly great neighborhoods.

With proximity to Routes 95 and 495, 20 minutes to Providence and about 40 to Boston the region is high on homebuyers list of places to live. With a lower tax rate than surrounding communities and a highly regarded public school systems this area is popular with families. With 124 homes and buildings on the National Register of Historic Places, this town of 29,000-plus people has more going for it than the more expensive suburban Boston and Providence towns.

White Cliffs, Plymouth North Attleboro is indeed an appealing small town that has somehow flown under the radar when looking for a new home. That won't last long, however, as other towns have priced themselves out of contention. If considering a move to the Boston/ Providence area, we highly recommend you take a close look at Attleboro and North Attleboro. The shopping and services along Route 1 is unmatched by almost anywhere in New England.

Mansfield and Easton, which are two great towns in the region are also great choices as each has many of the same proximity advantages as the Attleboro’s with great small town feel and charm.

Patriot Place Foxboro, MA

Attleboro Re/Max Campos Homes Team

Topping the list as well is Foxboro, a excellent community for families to consider.

What makes these communities so sought after in the real estate market today is simple, they are well managed rural communities that have followed a common sense plan on growth and development.

Quite simply in today’s real estate market this adds up to value for residents. In the years ahead consumers will put good management at the top of their list when choosing towns to live in. Lets face it, what good is living in a city or town when taxes are not affordable for residents. These western Bristol County and southern Norfolk County communities will see growth moving forward and increased values as well. As for their location, it could not be hotter in today’s real estate market.
