Mortgage terms to know

uying a home is simultaneously exciting and stressful. Owning a home is still a dream for many people, but first-time buyers often find that their unfamiliarity with the home-buying process is a source of stress. Part of that stress stems from the terminology associated with home mortgages. Here are some common mortgage terms to familiarize yourself with as you begin the process of buying a home.

because they know exactly what they will be paying each month. An adjustable-rate mortgage, often referred to as an ARM loan, is one that typically comes with an initial lower interest rate than a fixed-rate mortgage, but that lower rate is usually only locked in for a relatively brief period of time, such as one year. Once that time period is over, the interest rate will then increase and may increase several times over the life of the loan.

CLOSING COSTS

PMI

Any time a real estate transaction occurs, that transaction is accompanied by expenses on the mortgage known as the closing costs. Closing costs may include attorney fees, loan origination fees, title insurance and escrow payments. Buyers can sometimes negotiate with the seller so that the seller pays closing costs. Alternately, a buyer might persuade the seller to share the closing costs. Often times, though, the buyer is responsible for all of the closing costs.

ESCROW Escrow is a bond, deed, document or money that is held in the custody of a third party until a real estate transaction is completed. In addition, escrow accounts are used to hold the property tax and insurance fees that are collected via your monthly mortgage payment.

FIXED-RATE MORTGAGE Unlike an adjustable-rate mortgage, a fixed-rate mortgage is one in which the interest rate remains the same for the life of the loan. Buyers typically prefer a fixed-rate mortgage

PMI, or private mortgage insurance, must be purchased by home buyers who are financing more than 80 percent of their homes. The standard down payment when purchasing a home is 20 percent, but some buyers cannot afford such a big down payment. As a result, the lender mandates that such buyers purchase PMI, which protects the lender if the borrower defaults on the loan. The cost of PMI is added to your mortgage payment; once you have 20 percent equity in your home you can cancel PMI, at which time your monthly mortgage payment will decrease.

TITLE INSURANCE Title insurance is a tool that protects both the buyer and the seller against legal issues that may arise as a result of the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s title. Title insurance protects buyers and the lender from the possibility that the seller was not legally permitted to transfer ownership of the property to the buyer. Title insurance may also protect sellers from any issues that arise and threaten their ability to sell the home.

DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE Do you prefer walking and biking to sitting in traffic? Love the hustle and bustle of the city? Maybe you abhor long commutes and enjoy taking a spontaneous stroll to a nearby restaurant for dinner and music. If this sounds like you, we suggest you forget life in the ’burbs and go urban. A growing resurgence in downtown Nashville has brought a wealth of living options to the city’s urban landscape, along with a vibrant community of restaurants, shops and clubs. For urban dwellers, The Gulch in downtown Nashville is the place to be. Properties like Velocity, Terrazzo, Encore and the Viridian offer the ultimate digs for downtown living. And with the tremendous growth this former railroad yard has seen, you can always find something to do here. Shop at Two Old Hippies, Apricot Lane or Urban Outfitters. Work out at Barry’s Bootcamp or chill out at Sanctuary for Yoga. Meet friends for drinks at Bar Louie or The Pub Nashville. Walk over to the Whiskey Kitchen or Sambuca for dinner. If you feel like getting your art on, stroll on down to the Frist Center for the Visual Arts. Of course there’s always music. (It is Music City, after all.) But these days it’s not just country music that’s thriving in Nashville; Music City’s burgeoning pop scene recently led The Atlantic to dub Nashville the “Silicon Valley of the music business.” The publication cited the city’s transformation from “country music outpost” to a major player in the world of commercial music. Venerable music venues like 3rd and Lindsley and The Station Inn provide unforgettable entertainment. And don’t forget the historic Ryman Auditorium, which Rolling Stone named #4 on their 2013 list of “Best Music Venues.” If you’re looking to set up shop, office space in The Gulch is plentiful right now — but that’s sure to change as more residents are drawn to the downtown lifestyle. Speaking of the office: Did you know that Forbes.com ranks Nashville fifth among its “Best Places for Business and Careers”? And 16th for job growth? And second among “Best Big Cities for Jobs”? But the growth, action and entertainment extend way beyond The Gulch proper. There are numerous dining and entertainment options down on Lower Broadway and out on West End.

DAVIDSON COUNTY

Nashville has long been known for its country music scene, but these days the city draws attention for more than its tunes. National publications are taking note of everything Nashville, from food and fashion to music and more. Forbes magazine ranks Nashville third on its list of “Next Big Boom Towns.” The music scene was one factor that led to the city’s inclusion on the list; other criteria included job growth (both past and projected), quality of life, fewer traffic tie-ups compared with other cities its size, affordable housing prices and a “pro-business environment.” Forbes.com calls Nashville one of the “Best Places for Business and Careers,” and the city ranks 27th among “Cities on the Edge” (by Sperling’s Best Places) for its scores in areas such as sports, art, music, culture and cosmopolitan factors (like LEED certifications and population growth). Some may think of Nashville as a meat-and-three kind of town, but the venerable New York Times knows that Music City has so much more up its culinary sleeve. A 2012 NYT article shined a spotlight on East Nashville cuisine. From the Farmer’s Market to food trucks to gourmet popsicles at Las Paletas, Nashville’s hip food scene is evidence of a diverse culture. Readers of Travel + Leisure have also noticed Nashville’s taste for good food, voting the city #16 among the “Best U.S. Cities for Foodies.” Nashville’s vibrant music scene is still a trait that earns notice, but these days it’s not just country music that’s thriving in Nashville; Music City’s burgeoning pop scene recently led The Atlantic to dub Nashville the “Silicon Valley of the music business.” The publication cited Nashville’s transformation from “country music outpost” to a major player in the world of commercial music. With venues like The Bluebird Cafe, 3rd and Lindsley and The Station Inn, it’s not surprising that last year Rolling Stone magazine declared Music City has the “Best Music Scene” in the country. Nashville has even been noticed for one of its delightful Southern charms: its accent. While accents are sometimes the

The Parthenon at Centennial Park

20 | TENNESSEE HOMES | FEBRUARY - MARCH 2015 | www.Tennessean.com/TNHomes

source of jokes and ridicule, Travel + Leisure readers seem to think otherwise. On their list of “America’s Most Charming Accents,” readers ranked Nashville #4. Seems folks love the Nashville drawl, y’all, noting that residents here have “added some city” to their Southern accent. Music City is also a thriving hub for industry; many companies have a long history here. Bridgestone, HCA, BMI, Thomas Nelson Publishing, Louisiana-Pacific and Dollar General all have corporate offices here — a testament to strong business foundations and economic growth. Great food, good fun, affordable housing and a healthy business climate — these are just some of the reasons to sing the praises of America’s Music City. — Diane Hughes, Tennessean Custom Publications

SUMNER COUNTY With one of the top high schools in the state, a mass transit plan in the works and a wealth of recreational opportunities, Sumner County has plenty to brag about. This area just northeast of Nashville offers a quality of life that many new-home buyers find attractive. Residents here enjoy the hometown feel of cities like Gallatin and Hendersonville but appreciate the nearby bigcity perks of Nashville. The county’s largest city, Hendersonville, is home to Merrol Hyde Magnet School, named the third best high school in Tennessee in U.S. News & World Report’s most recent ranking of America’s Best High Schools. Gallatin (the county seat) is home to Volunteer State Community College, a public two-year college that offers associate degrees, certificates and continuing education opportunities. With more than 70 academic programs and classes offered on site and online, Vol State is an educational and economic asset to Sumner County and the entire region. The Gallatin area is a sportsman’s paradise; fishing and boating opportunities abound along the county’s many miles of shoreline on Old Hickory Lake, and lakefront or golf course homes are plentiful at communities like Fairvue Plantation. Hendersonville has an extensive system of greenway biking and walking trails with plans to expand its bike trail system. Several golf courses dot the county, including Country Hills Golf Course and Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club (both in Hendersonville), and The Club at Fairvue Plantation and Long Hollow Golf Course (both in Gallatin). Affordable new homes at Saundersville Station in Hendersonville start at just $159,900, and Creekside at Station Camp offers homes starting near $220,000.

WILLIAMSON COUNTY Whether you’re strolling downtown Franklin, dining in Cool Springs, shopping at The Factory or looking for antiques in Leiper’s Fork, you’ll find that Williamson County supports diverse lifestyles and offers a wealth of housing options. From Franklin’s Westhaven community, which features a walkable design with retail establishments located in the neighborhood, to the rural setting of Winterset Woods in Nolensville, you’ll find plenty of new homes to choose from. And whether you choose a larger city like Franklin (the county seat) or Brentwood, or one of the smaller communities like Arrington or Fairview, you’ll find housing and amenities in a variety of styles of price ranges. It’s hard to decide whether Franklin is a big city with a small-town feel or a small town with big-city advantages. Cool Springs Galleria and its surrounding business district serve a variety of consumer needs — from dining to furniture, housewares to clothing and more. The Crossings in nearby Spring Hill features tenants like Target, Bed, Bath and Beyond, and Kirkland’s. If you prefer the rural life, head to the pastoral paradise of Thompson’s Station, located just minutes from downtown Franklin and not that far from downtown Nashville. In nearby Nolensville, you can stop in at the new Nolensville Farmers Market for fresh produce, flowers homemade foods and more. Williamson County is home to businesses large and small, from home-owned enterprises like Bathos and McCreary’s Irish Pub to national headquarters for companies like Nissan, Tractor Supply and Mars Petcare. It seems no surprise, then, that Bloomberg ranked the Nashville area (including Franklin and Murfreesboro) as number eight on last year’s list of Top Ten American Boomtowns (based on population growth and growth in gross domestic product). Williamson County’s proven ability to attract and grow business has led to Brentwood and Spring Hill being named among the Top 10 “Most Business-Friendly Cities in Tennessee” (Beacon Center). The

Brentwood, Ravenwood, Franklin and Page high schools were among the publication’s America’s Best High Schools in 2013. Small-town charm, a healthy economic climate and a solid education system — if you’re looking for good country living in a growing and thriving community, Williamson County could be just the place. — Diane Hughes,

WILSON COUNTY If you’re looking to settle in an area where you can enjoy smalltown values with big-city benefits nearby, Wilson County is a wise choice. Whether you choose the county seat of Lebanon with its quaint city square, Mt. Juliet with its easy access to Nashville or Watertown and its rural charm, Wilson County offers a place where business is booming, education is valued and the county fair is the event of the year. Business is booming here, which is a testament to the friendly business climate. The Beacon Center of Tennessee, a not-for-profit think tank based in Nashville, has named two cities in the county — Mt. Juliet and Lebanon — to their latest list of the “State’s Most Business-Friendly Cities (#4 and #6, respectively). No doubt that business-friendly attitude played a part in the growth of the Providence community in Mt. Juliet, which is now set to add Providence Central, a mixed-use community of housing, retail and office space. Wilson County has also been making strides in expanding and upgrading the county’s schools. The county commission approved a $63-million school building plan that is paying for a new high school in Watertown (set to open in the fall of 2014) and brought expansions at West Wilson Middle School and West and Rutland elementary schools. In recent years the county has added Winfree Bryant Middle School in Lebanon (2011), the new Lebanon High School (2012) and a new high school in Mt. Juliet (2008). Other signs of growth include the new Highway 109 bridge joining Wilson and Sumner counties. The brand-new $29.5 million four-lane structure replaces an old two-lane bridge built in the 1950s. Leaders in both counties say the bridge will alleviate traffic congestion and provide an economic boost for their communities. Rail transportation is set to expand in Lebanon with a new stop on the Music City Star line. The recent award of a $1.6-million grant will help fund the proposed rail station at Hamilton Springs, making it Middle Tennessee’s first mixeduse development designed

According to CarCentral Pk nival Warehouse, based on attendance and other attriStewarts Ferry butes, the Wilson County Fair Pk ranks among the top 50 fairs in North America.

ROBERTSON CO. The pace of life may move a bit slower in Robertson County — and residents here do tend to like it that way — but that hasn’t slowed the wheels of economic growth in this rural outpost located just north of Nashville. But don’t let that growth concern you. County leaders here are working on a carefully thought-out plan for development. The plan’s goal: preserve the county’s agricultural economy and quality of life while attracting businesses and jobs to designated growth areas, mostly within the county’s existing city centers. The county’s proposed 2040 Comprehensive Growth Plan calls for school improvements (including a new high school in the county seat of Springfield), road improvements and more diverse housing options. Other goals include retaining and creating jobs, adding more higher-paying jobs and attracting a diverse population and workforce. With companies like Electrolux Home Products (the county’s largest employer with more than 3,000 workers), and Unarco Materials Handling (the second-largest employer in the county), Robertson County seems well on its way. Johnson Electric and Martinrea Fabco also call this area home. In addition to the growing economic picture in Robertson County, there’s also the way of life that residents are determined to maintain. From local treasures like Burdett’s Tea Shop & Trading Company to the Shade Tree Farm (where you pick your own apples), don’t expect the pace of life here to change anytime soon. To learn more about Robertson County, pick up a copy of the Robertson County Fact Book, published by the Robertson County Times, or view the Fact Book online at rctimes.com. Contact the Times at 615-384-3567.

CHEATHAM CO. If you’re looking for peaceful country living just a stone’s throw from the city, look at Cheatham County. With wooded hillsides, open farmland, and scenic rivers and lakes, the area offers an attractive setting. The communities of Kingston Springs, Pegram, Pleasant View and Ashland City provide offer a neighborly feel despite the county’s rapid expansion. Whether in a suburban or rural setting, residents here have the best of both worlds: a serene environment with easy access to city life and jobs. Sidewalks and lighting have given downtown Kingston Springs a sleek new look, and because of numerous community events, residents have many opportunities to meet throughout the year. Pegram is a great place to raise a family and is quaintly referred to as “The Pretty Little Town of Pegram.” The town has its own special treasures. Popular places include Finch’s Country Store and Mud Puddle Pottery Studio (which offers pottery workshops and classes). The county seat of Ashland City sits on the bank of the Cumberland River. The city’s award-winning parks and recreation program earned the Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for its conservation efforts involved with the Cumberland River Bicentennial Trail. Under the guidance of Renaissance Ashland City, planners are working to carefully preserve the city’s heritage while embracing the benefits of progress. To learn more, pick up the Cheatham County Fact Book, published by The Ashland City Times, available at the newspaper’s offices located at 202-A N. Main St., Ashland City.
