5 Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do

For all the folks with cell phones. (This should be printed and kept in your car, purse, and wallet. Good information to have with you.)

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave
emergencies.

Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:


FIRST

Emergency


The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find Yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile network and there is an Emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to Establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly, this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out..


SECOND

Have you locked your keys in the car?


Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys In the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot >From your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk)..

Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked
 our car over a cell phone!'

THIRD

Hidden Battery Power


Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys
*3370#. Your cell phone will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell phone next time.


FOURTH

How to disable a STOLEN mobile pho ne?


To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following Digits on your phone:
*#06#. A 15-digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe.

If your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones..

And Finally.....


FIFTH

Free Directory Service for Cells


Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1..75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial:
(800)FREE411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now.

This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends

Smart Protection For Buyers & Sellers Alike



Protect Yourself from Unexpected Home Repair Costs

Whether you’re selling or buying, it is the smart and cost effective thing to do: protect your largest investment with a Home Warranty.

Buy or sell any home with confidence knowing it includes valuable home warranty protection. The warranty will help protect you from the unexpected, high costs of repairs or replacements to the major systems and appliances in the home. When a covered system or appliance breaks down, you simply contact your Home Warranty provider who will arrange for the prompt repair or replacement of such.

This little known and understood coverage can save you hundreds if not thousands of dollars!


As a Seller

You’re protected while your home is on the market. Mechanical system failures are covered during the listing period for up to one year - you simply pay a low deductible.

You have a marketing edge over the competition. A Home Warranty can help sell your home faster and closer to your asking price. The warranty enhances your home’s value to prospective buyers and helps secure the best possible price for your home. It separates it from the competition next door by making it more attractive.

You’re helping prevent post-sale disputes. If an unexpected failure of major systems or appliances occurs in your home after the sale, the buyer turns to your provider for the resolution instead of you. Simple, fast and reliable service.


As a Buyer

You’re prepared for the unexpected. The cost of repairing or replacing appliances and systems in your home can be budget-breaking, especially when you have just purchased a new home. You know they can’t last forever, so you need to plan ahead.

You save yourself time and keep it simple. A Home Warranty provides the convenience of one source for almost all repair or replacement needs. Prompt, reliable service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

You’re protected year after year. Almost all Home Warranty Policies are renewable annually, so you’re always prepared for the unexpected.

You can get up to $35,000 in additional funds for the renovation of a single family home through the FHA 203K Mortgage program.

The Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which is part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), administers various single family mortgage insurance programs. These programs operate through FHA-approved lending institutions which submit applications to have the property appraised and have the buyer's credit approved. These lenders fund the mortgage loans which the Department insures. HUD does not make direct loans to help people buy homes.

The Section 203(k) program is the Department's primary program for the rehabilitation and repair of single family properties. As such, it is an important tool for community and neighborhood revitalization and for expanding homeownership opportunities. Since these are the primary goals of HUD, the Department believes that Section 203(k) is an important program and HUD intends to continue to strongly support the program and the lenders that participate in it.

Many lenders have successfully used the Section 203(k) program in partnership with state and local housing agencies and nonprofit organizations to rehabilitate properties. These lenders, along with state and local government agencies, have found ways to combine Section 203(k) with other financial resources, such as HUD's HOME, HOPE, and Community Development Block Grant Programs, to assist borrowers. Several state housing finance agencies have designed programs, specifically for use with Section 203(k) and some lenders have also used the expertise of local housing agencies and nonprofit organizations to help manage the rehabilitation processing.

The Department also believes that the Section 203(k) program is an excellent means for lenders to demonstrate their commitment to lending in lower income communities and to help meet their responsibilities under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). HUD is committed to increasing homeownership opportunities for families in these communities and Section 203(k) is an excellent product for use with CRA-type lending programs.

If you have questions about the 203(k) program or are interested in getting a 203(k) insured mortgage loan, I suggest that you get in touch with an FHA-approved lender in your area or visit your local HUD website to get started.
