 The quality of their children?s school is a concern of every parent. When people move to a new area, one of their main concerns is that their child gets a good education in a safe environment. Like others across the country, Puget Sound school districts are preparing students for life in the coming century in the face of rapid technological and social change. To their credit, the vast majority of Seattle-area public school districts boast test scores above national standards and many districts?and teachers within those districts?have earned merit awards for their hard work and dedication to educational excellence.

Financing Your Home >Owner Financing
If you are selling a house in which you have a lot of equity, and you don't need that equity to buy a new home, an owner-financing agreement may benefit you and your buyers.
Seller financing arrangements usually involve the buyers securing the largest portion of their purchase money from a mortgage company and getting a smaller second loan from the sellers. For example, they may finance 75% from a lender, put in 15% from savings, and ask the sellers to finance the remaining amount. The terms and interest rates on seller carry-backs are negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
Sellers may be able to negotiate a note that provides a better return on their money than 1-to-5 year CD's or treasury notes. They should ensure that the note protects them to the fullest. Use common sense when considering such a loan, and verify the buyers' income, credit history, and job stability before making your final decision.
