MortgagesUndressed

This Woodbury lesson is for the first time home buyer. So you see the market going away from you. Prices are rising and you don’t qualify. What is the solution?

Woodbury would say, “Work Will Work When Wishey Washey Wishing Won’t”

Yep, go to work. Work on whatever is in the way. Also work on learning the mortgage game. Work on learning where affordable housing is and work on qualifying for it. Work on your income. Work on and work off your debts. Work on self control over your spending.

Pardon the Poem, some say pseudo poem.

Oh, your hopes are low

and your scores are lower.

Your wish for a home

sees a path slow, even slower.

But your body is strong

or you have brains - not brawn,

so in your quest for a home

just go to work - don’t worry.

So work is the answer and

get a new job or two.

Reign in the spending on her, on you.

Here the lesson is

work will work and carry you through.

Now, put those hopes on high

and from that new job gain hope

as work will work

when wishy washey wishing won’t.
