sweetface, that stinks.....did they actually do a new appraisal of your home? That costs at least 300 bucks, and it would surpise me that they would do that....you could possibly contest that. Also the average drop in value for newer homes the past two years is only 8%, so hopefully most of you down payment is still solidly invested.....
I have not been persoanlly impacted at all YET (knock on wood ha ha), but I do have a fleet of service vehicles, and am about to pass on our THIRD fuel surcharge in a year and a half.....I hate to do it, but it is a must.........................................oompa
