New Louisiana State Bond Issue released July 10,2007-No longer only for first time homebuyers!
This will be short and sweet!!
I have it on very good authority that the LHFA (Louisiana Housing Finance Authority) will be releasing the next state bond issue this coming Tuesday! 
That is much sooner then was earlier anticipated!
While the interest rate is still a mystery(rumor has it at about 6.25% for the assisted program) the guidelines and the qualifications are not. The guidelines will be the same as the last issue. This is the link to my blog concerning qualifications for the bond loans.
So in summary, if you are in the market for a new home in the Baton Rouge area, the bond loans are definitely worth exploring. Contact me, Shannon Sims at (225)296-7723 or drop me an email at shannon@Judyburkett.com to discuss your options.
i was wondering about the first responders program i spoke with someone at LFHA and all i got was that the money would be out between july 1 and july 31 do you have any new info on the first responders program like when will they have the money, interest rates, qualifications, etc., i have done alot of research on this program and am very interested i am a RN and my husband is a fireman in east baton rouge parish and are looking in the zachary area, we just can not seem to get any clear answers on anything can you help?????

Hi Lori-
Thank you for commenting on my blog!
My understanding is the first responder bond details will be released next week when they release the info on the regular Louisiana State Bond Program. I will email you and post on the blog as soon as I get the information.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PARISH BOND MONEY FOR LIVINGSTON PARISH FOR POTENTIAL HOME BUYERS?

Livingston Parish rarely issues a bond issue. There was one issued at the beginning of 2007 but the money is long gone! I do not know of any plans for another Livingston Parish bond loan. However, the recent LouisianaState Bond Loan will allow you to buy a home in Livingston Parish. That money will be available next week.
If you are interested in pursuing a home in Livingston Parish please contact me, Shannon Sims, The ExclusiveBuyer's Agent in the Greater Baton Rouge area and I would love to work with you!

They did not mention anything about the bond program until I asked about it. This home will be our 1st home. Can you provide me more information about the program or point me int he riht direction?
Thank You for your time.
