Performance - Shake, Rattle and Roll: A Rocking Tribute to the King
Saturday, March 3, 2012 time:7:30 pm
Monroe High School Performing Arts Center
address:1600 26th Street Monroe, WI 53566
You’ll see a whole lot of shakin’ going on when musician and actor, Scot Bruce, celebrates what made Elvis not only the “King of Rock ‘n Roll”...but the King of Cool. Along with his four-piece band, Bruce meticulously recreates the electrifying musical excitement of Elvis in his prime...right down to the vintage instruments, the hip ‘threads’, and the grease in the hair.
Scot Bruce has appeared in recurring roles on the hit soap operas Days of Our Lives and The Bold and the Beautiful, a Pizza Hut commercial, the California Lottery “Elvis” ad campaign, and in several successful productions of Idols of the King. Recently, he had the honor of performing with the legendary Jordanaires (Elvis’ original backup singers). He recreated scenes for The True Hollywood Story: Elvis in Hollywood, and he performs regularly at Disneyland.
This rockin' tribute show has wowed fans worldwide because of Bruce’s uncanny resemblance to the young “King” and his ability to sing, strum a guitar, and swivel his hips. It’s a show guaranteed to have you all shook-up
Tickets: Adults - $35, $25, $20, $15, Students - $10 (18 Years and Under)

A Confluence of Positive Factors
The Wall Street Journal recently reported that home affordability is at its highest level in years; this degree of affordability becomes more apparent when compared to rent prices, which continue to rise across the country.
Meanwhile, ADP 's National Employment Report showed another month of strong job growth, with the private-sector adding 206,000 new jobs for November. Accelerating job growth usually portends a strong (at least stronger) economy.
Accelerating job growth combined with a historically high affordability index suggests to us that this is the near-perfect time to buy or refinance a home, because we doubt that affordability will remain this high at the end of 2012.
The fact is that bloated inventory levels are falling, and falling inventory in many markets has spurred bidding wars. As the economy continues to improve, inventory will become less bloated and prices and financing costs will rise. It's always worth remembering that the best time to buy is when enough clouds remain to permeate the market with at least some pessimism, because the best deals are only found when the future is still clouded by uncertainty. When the clouds clear, so will the high affordability index.
Today, we have low home prices, low mortgage rates, and more job growth. In our opinion, this is the perfect time to buy or refinance, because continued job growth, a rising stock market, and a growing economy means higher home prices and higher lending rates in the future.

What is a Short Sale? Why do it?
A Short Sale is when the lender of record agrees to discount their payoff on the sale of a house when:
The borrower has experienced hardship and is unable to repay the mortgage.
The value is proven to be less than the amount needed to pay off all loans, encumbrances and real estate selling costs.
The loan is delinquent or in default.
Often a house in which the proceeds of a sale will fall short of what the home owner still owes on the mortgage, lenders will accept the lesser proceeds as a short sale. By doing this the lender forgives the balance of the mortgage and thereby avoids a lengthy and costly foreclosure procedure.
How do Sellers Benefit from a Short Sale?
The seller can avoid having a “foreclosure” on their credit report. Most lenders tend to report “settled” upon successful closing of a short sale.
Assuming the seller is already not making mortgage payments, they can continue to live in the property and not make payments during the lengthy short sales
Most sellers feel it is the “right thing to do” when in default. They tend to feel that walking away from the house is irresponsible. It’s a respectable option

Things to Consider When Purchasing a Home
There are many issues to evaluate when considering a home purchase including what you can afford, what kind of loan best suits you, the property itself and once you find your dream house, how much you are willing to pay for it.
How Much Can You Afford?
Before starting your search for a home, you must decide how much you can afford. Generally speaking, it is recommended that the down payment be a minimum of 5-20% of the purchase price. In addition, there are two other standard thresholds to consider in terms of how much of your monthly income should be spent on housing.
• Your total housing costs (mortgage, interest, property taxes, insurance) should not exceed 28% of your income.
• The combination of your housing costs and all other monthly debt (car loans, student loans, etc.) should not exceed 36% of your income.
