Not Just for First Time Home Buyers Anymore

Forked River, NJ 9, 2010 American Advantage Mortgage Company today launched a revolutionary new residential mortgage product which enables 100% financing of a primary, secondary, or investment property up to $1 million dollars. &194;“In today&194;’s real estate market, many people envision low-down-payment programs for first time homebuyers,&194;” states Devon Callan, Loan Officer at American Advantage Mortgage Company. &194;“However, if the after-tax return on alternative uses of that money exceeds the buyers financing costs, putting little or no money down on a home is often a wise financial choice.&194;” He added that funding 100% of a primary, secondary, or investment property helps avoid liquidating assets to cover a down payment and possibly paying capital gains after liquidating. &194;“Naturally, one would want to consult their tax advisor about their personal situation,&194;” said Callan, &194;“however this innovative financing strategy offers several paybacks, especially for property investors.&194;”

When asked about the benefits, Callan explained, &194;“Financing 100% of your primary, secondary, or investment property may increase the amount of deductible interest expense as well as defer potential capital gains exposure.&194;” Another reason for 100% financing Callan stated was investment strategy preservation which allows the homebuyer to keep their portfolio intact by avoiding liquidation of assets to fund a down payment. &194;“With the maximum loan amount of $1 million dollars, 100% financing is not for first-time homebuyers anymore,&194;” laughed Callan. The new mortgage product allows various property types including single family, multiple family, townhouses, and condos.

Travelex Launches Online Price Promise on Its New Currency Exchange Website for U.S. Travelers

New York November 22, 2010

Travelex, the world’s largest non-bank foreign exchange currency provider, is providing attractive new online incentives for Americans seeking to purchase foreign currency, with the launch of its newly redesigned website backed by their innovative “Online Price Promiseavailable exclusively for online transactions at http://www.us.travelex.com.

Travelex’s new Online Price Promise will match a lower published price on complete online foreign currency orders, inclusive of delivery, fees and charges, allowing customers to receive the greatest value for their dollars. For instance, if a customer locates a lower offer on another website on the same business day that they purchased with Travelex at http://www.us.travelex.com, they can simply contact a Travelex foreign exchange specialist within 14 days to receive the difference between the prices.

Travelex online customers will not only receive the best price for online retail foreign currency, but also will benefit from 0% commission on transactions. An additional benefit, according to Jon Dario, president of Travelex Currency Services Inc., is that website customers can take advantage of Travelex’s 0 Fee Buy Backservice, in the event they return with unused currency a strong likelihood, according to market research. The $0 Fee Buy Back offer allows customers to return their leftover currency at any retail store within the United States and receive Travelex’s best rate possible without any markup or fees and is available for free with all online purchases.

“Research shows that U.S. travelers bring back more than $2 billion in unused foreign currency, but don’t exchange it,said Dario. “In today’s economic climate, consumers want to ensure that they are getting great value for their unused foreign currency when they return home. $0 Fee Buy Back does just that while our Online Price Promise takes the guess work out of currency exchange.

Dario also noted the difficulty North American travelers are having with their magnetic stripe credit and debit cards overseas, making it all the more essential that travelers purchase foreign currency before arrival.

“We’ve found that Americans, more than any other market, are taking cash abroad to avoid the hassle of using credit or debit cards,said Dario. “Our Online Price Promise provides peace of mind for travelers and they are getting the best value for the foreign currency.

With the launch of http://www.us.travelex.com, U.S. customers will have improved transaction capability and receive their currency quickly with available options such as next day and Saturday delivery.

Travelex’s new website has also enhanced the range of its products such as providing the ability to purchase and reload Cash Passport cards online in real time. The website features useful tools including a new and easy to use currency converter.

According to Dario, the website is an essential tool to meet the growing demand for pre-trip foreign currency purchases.

“As the demand for pre-trip foreign currency purchases grows, our financially savvy customers are seeking convenience, but also don’t want to pay more than they need to,said Dario. “Our new website simplifies the search for the best currency exchange and we’re looking forward to continuing to find new safe and smart ways to make the travel experience easier for our customers.

The First Nationwide Online Reservation System for the Pet Care Industry Has Been Launched

Chicago, Ill. August 24, 2005

FindPetCare.com, Inc has launched the first nationwide pet care reservation system enabling pet owners and travel agencies to make real-time reservations for pet boarding and daycare while connecting thousands of U.S. pet care providers with millions of pet owners nationwide.

"We aim to enable over 70 millions of American families that own at least one pet to conveniently include pet boarding or daycare into their vacation plans while increasing pet owner awareness of professional pet care services. Until now there was no easy way a pet owner or travel agent could have shopped for the best service and made, in 5 minutes, an online reservation to board a pet and pay with a credit card," said Loriana Kirlig, co-founder of FindPetCare.com, Inc.

"Our goal is to bring all pet care providers online, such as boarding kennels or daycare facilities, to start accepting guaranteed online reservations, 24/7, from thousands of travel agencies and millions of pet owners. I love the convenience of online services such as Expedia that show you pictures, prices and everything you need to make a quick decision from the comfort of your home. We enable the same thing for pet care industry," Mrs. Kirlig added.

The today&194;’s process of finding a service provider that best suits each pet owner&194;’s individual needs is complex. It means using a &194;“Yellow pages&194;” like service, call several providers and ask for service details, requirements and prices and then analyze the gathered information. This is an extremely time consuming process, especially if the pet owner has specific needs such as custom feeding or medication dispensing.

FindPetCare.com, Inc enables pet care providers such as boarding kennels to accept real-time reservations from travel agents and online customers through the Internet which leads to a lower vacancy rate, while showing service pictures and details to build pet owner trust in the professional pet care.
