Seven years ago we refinanced our home for funds to help get my sign business started.  Our home appraised for over $250,000.  We chose an adjustable rate mortgage whihc iin the last two years has gone up to over 10%, increasing our mortgage payment to about $2400 per month.  Only $130 of that goes to the principle.

With the housing market slumping here, the value of our home dropped.  We have just had it appraised at $240,000.  (One year ago it appraised for $225,000)  We have been approved for a mortgage for $240,000, but will need to bring $17,000 to the table to pay for closing cost and the balance on the existing mortgage.  Our new mortgage payment would be about $1500.

Our combined income from military retirement, corporate retirement, annunity, my sign business, my wife's yoga teaching is over $50,000 per year.  Between the Prosper loan and the new mortgage, we would be paying about $400 less than we are now.

My sign business has shown steady growth for over 7 years now.  This year we are expanding and anticipating over 25% growth as I have hired outside sales.  We have developed a very stable, consistent client base through offering excellent service and competitive pricing.  We provide solutions.

In over 40 years of marriage, we have never defaulted on a loan but have moved 19 times.  Our credit has remained excellent.  It is our intention with this loan to pay down our current mortgage to below the $240,000 figure, retain enough for closing, repay Prosper Loan in 3 year and use the found money to pay down other debt.
