What if you are submitting your completed returns today? First off, good job, but remember if you are getting any money back you need to use this money to Crush Your Debt!

See my post from a couple weeks ago. http://www.havegoodcredit.com/blog/tax-time.htm

“Treasury prices sold off Thursday, pushing the 10-year yield above 5% for the first time in nearly four years, after unexpectedly strong retail sales and consumer-sentiment data advanced a case for the Federal Reserve to keep lifting rates”

This is an all time high since 2002. What does this mean to you? Well if you have an ARM then its time to re-finance and get yourself into a fixed rate mortgage. This increase in 10 year bond will force the rates of ARM’s to increase which means your monthly payment will go up. For some it will hurt there budgets some and for others this will be the difference between making your mortgage payment and not.

The good news is if you are a bond investor you can look forward to a more higher return on your investment.

I found this on MSN. It’s a cool litle tool to see where you stand in terms of your debt. On word of caution, beware of all the ads on msn.com for credit cards. Use the debt tool and get out. Best of luck!

Mortgage rates are going up!

Rates on 30 year mortgage are going up. The rates are at the highest level in 2 ½ years. The financial markets are now very worried about inflation.

Rising mortgage rates have begun too cool the red hot housing market.

If you owe debt in any form things are going to get rough. This is the time to really start to attach your debt and get yourself in a financially secure spot.
