Alabama Governor Robert Bentley commented recently that on his list of priorities is the beachfront hotel and conference center in Gulf Shores.  This first-class beachfront hotel  and conference center project would be built at the site of the old Gulf State Park hotel and lodge on Beach Boulevard, and could be expected to be a financial draw.   Although there are still some legal concerns involving whether a private company can build a convention center on state land, the governor has hopes that this project will re-shape the Gulf Shores and make it a top convention destination in the Southeast region.

Popular methods include Cajun, French, Spanish, African and Native American styles of cooking where herbs and spices are used to full effect to make the food succulent and sizzling. The agriculture, rivers and coast provide plenty of fresh resources. Many new residents find that nothing can compete with sitting in the warm sun, a cool drink in hand and tasting the river-to-table freshness of the local fish caught only that morning. Pure bliss.

The Metro Mobile area of Alabama is the oldest part of the state. Founded by French colonists in 1702, it is rich with history and heritage, including the oldest Mardi Gras in the whole of the United States, which date back to the 1800s and its colonial past. Located in the south-western tip of the state on the Mobile River and Mobile Bay, it is home to over 400,00 residents, who enjoy living on the Gulf of Mexico. Residents of Mobile are affectionately known as `Mobilians` and take great pride in their home town, especially its position as a leading cultural center. The Mobile Opera, Mobile Ballet company and the Mobile Symphony Orchestra are highly regarded arts organizations and perform several productions each year. For history and architecture lovers, the buildings and heritage in Mobile and throughout the state, will prove interesting and absorbing. Mobile Botanical Gardens and over 40 state parks add to this impressive array of facilities.

And keep Realtor Barbara Reeves in mind when buying or selling property in Gulf Coast AL.

Good credit goes hand in hand with acquiring a mortgage to buy a Daphne, Fairhope, Mobile or Spanish Fort, Al property these days, especially a loan with a reasonable interest rate. That being said, examining your credit rating should be the first step you take before applying for a home loan. A free credit report is accessible from AnnualCreditReport.com, which will give you access to your credit rating from the three main credit reporting agencies, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. What these reports will not give you is your FICO score, something that can be purchased for roughly $15.

The FICO score is what lenders go on when determining whether to lend money and under what terms. The FICO score is achieved by weighing out your payment history (whether you pay your creditors on time) and your debt history, this is achieved by weighing credit reports from the different agencies and is updated as credit reports change. The FICO score ranges from 350 to 850, with 850 being the best score possible.

The free credit reports are a great place to start to clean up your credit. You can start with the first discrepancy on the list and go from there. Contacting entities that have posted against you is possible. A little time spent on the phone can often help repair and improve your credit. You can do yourself what can cost lots of $’s. Call Barbara and ask her how.

The old adage “money makes the world go round” is obsolete for those who cannot have access to it due to poor credit. Knowing what your credit score is and fixing the issues that exist within it can only help you in the long run.

According to a recent report from CoreLogic, Alabama single-family homes have dropped in price by nearly 10 percent.  CoreLogic, which is California based, recently put together a report which revealed that compared to last October 2009, this past October 2010 showed single-family homes in Alabama dropping in price by almost 10 percent; however, the rate of decline was only .07 percent if distressed properties were taken out of the data.  This put Alabama second in the nation for home price decline, with Idaho being first.  Nationwide, single-family home prices have fallen about 4 percent between October 2009 and October 2010.

With lower home prices, it’s a great time to buy that dream home you’ve always wanted in the Gulf Coast of AL.  For more information on buying or selling property in Mobile, West Mobile, Fairhope, Spanish Fort, and Daphne AL, contact Barbara Reeves today.
