What is a good theme for a winter formal dance?

Bailey

I'm looking for a good, easy to decorate theme for our winter formal. I really like the idea of Candyland, does anyone know any other ideas similar to that? I'm not looking for a winter theme (Frozen in Time, Snowglobe, etc.) and our themes the past 2 years have been Hollywood and Bright Lights Big City. I need lots of ideas, thank you!

Answer
Gingerbread house.
Decorate the space like a huge gingerbread house, brown for the base and white for the icing trim. Complete the look with cutout decorations of brightly colored candy, balloons, and large gingerbread men and women. You could also give away real gingerbread as a parting gift.
You could even put a photo booth inside a gingerbread house

Some help please, questions on first time home buying?

top gift ideas for 4-year-old girls image

Lores R

I’m not sure if I posted this in the right section, but I want to buy my mom a house for Christmas of 2010, but I really don’t know all the ins and outs that I think I should be aware of before buying a house. Like back taxes? Escrow repairs? City inspection?

Let me give some background information. My mom’s mother died when she was 4 years old, and her father drank himself to death when she was 16. From the time of her being a very young child she was shuffled from different foster homes, with no one really caring about her. She had my older sister at 18, another girl at 20 whom she gave up for adoption, and then me at 24.

We were always very poor, sometimes without heat or electricity, or food to eat. We had to take many meals in a homeless shelter, and sometimes lived in shelters. When I turned 16 I started working, and helping with the bills, and moved out at 19. I got married, and recently divorced. Since I’ve been divorced I’ve been doing great, improving my credit and saving up money.

My mom lives in Jackson, Michigan. If you go to century21.com you will see the houses there are VERY inexpensive. There is one in particular for $16,900.00. My credit score is only 604 right now, but I have 2 credit cards that I’ve had over a year and have never been late on them, so I’m hoping my score will be higher in November of next year.

What are my finance options? I was planning on putting 20% down. I know most loans are based on 30 years, but I know that this loan stretched out over 30 years is highly unlikely (and what? 75 a month? Haha). But I also can’t afford to pay 17k right out, either.

Can anyone give me some ideas of what to expect? Also, my plan is to go to Michigan for Thanksgiving next year ( I live in NYC) and start the loan process. Given worst case scenarios, when can I expect to give my mom a gift box with her keys inside?
Hmm, now I just have more questions.

Well I do think buying a house for my mom would keep her much less stressed. Do you think that she lives in a good neighborhood now? She doesn't. She rents an apartment currently in the same neighborhood that these houses are for sale in. It's not a good neighborhood, but it's where I grew up, and where she has always lived.

Answer
you can get a 15, 20 or 30 yr mortgage - the shorter mortgages usually have lower int rates

you may have to make it a personal loan or "Home Equity to purchase" loan

I bought 2 house last year that cost under $23,000 each - got a regular mortgage on one and a Home equity to Purchase" loan on the other - higher int rate, but payments are about $200/mo each and I rent one house out for $500/mo, my ex and kids live in the other one

look at houses online at www.realtor.com
while you are in Michigan - contact a real estate agent and sign them up as your buyer's rep (no cost to you) - they can then get you the official MLS listing that will show more details than Realtor.com, like RE taxes, etc

research data on different towns at www.city-data.com - has stats on crime, unemployment, demographic info, more

On top of 20% down, yo will need another $1000-2000 for closing costs, inspections, etc.

when you next visit - try and get to see your top 2-3 choices for houses in person - ask lots of questions - get disclosure documents

when you make a decision, and AFTER you get pre-approved for a mortgage, and are ready to make a written offer - include in that offer - CONTINGENCIES for the home inspection, and anything else your RE agent suggests - the contingencies will allow you to back out of the deal and get your deposit money back if the home winds up having major problems discovered in the inspection

for $17000, don't expect a pristine house, but if there is termite or mold issues, RUN AWAY - you won;t get your inspection money back, but it would have cost you a ton more to deal with those issues after buying the house - IF the mortgage company even went thru with financing - they might not if there are major issues - same thing with homeowners insurance - they might not insure the house if it has a leaky roof

Insure the house for the REPLACEMENT value - which may be $150,000 or more - it will still only cost $500/yr or so and well worth it, otherwise if house burns down, you have no house and you still have a mortgage to pay, plus no where to live

GET a professional FULL HOUSE inspection, including termites, mold and Radon gas (about $400-600 total)

Birthday present for 4yr. old girl?

Jenintn

Help. I need ideas quick. Don't know much about little girls. Need something $20 or less. (that I can get at Walmart)

Answer
Get a cheap bag in pink with purple (or vice versa) tissue paper. Fill the bag with headbands, costume jewelry etc. you can find them in the toys isle where the dress up things are or in the clothing section for little girls. The more the better! After you fill the bag with the items then put two peices of tissue paper on top and voila!! a great gift for a 4 year old. Good Luck!
