What a great set
of articles in your recent issue focusing our community
on the responsibilities and strategies toward managing our
personal finance! It was great to see the three
articles addressing critical issues that many in the
community either have not yet considered or have
struggled in finding counsel. Todd Henneman's article drove
home the importance for everyone to better educate
themselves in the actions of purchasing property
together as the process can be complex and have long
term ramifications for anyone entering the process lightly.
Additonally, Dan Allen's article on the mortgage
lifeboat of reverse mortgages builds some very basic
understandings- but before anyone jumps into that water-
they should seek very specific skilled mortgage counsel- as
it, too, is complex and may have lifelong
consequences. If we learned anything at all in these
articles it is to remember, nothing beats finding a strong
advocate to help educate you about the process and to assist
you in building a strategy that works for your
individually.
