Are You Looking to Buy or Refinance a Home? Better Have a High Credit Scores!


Huntington Beach, California (Sharewellnewswwwire.com) August 29, 2012 - Recently the FHA & banks raised the minimum credit score requirements for home lending. The purpose of this is to lower the default rate by ensuring they lend to borrowers with higher credit scores.

Needless to say midrange credit scores aren?t good enough anymore!

It’s going to be crucial for home borrowers to do all they can to maximize their credit score to not only get approved, but get the best rates and terms available for a home loan. Higher credit scores equal better rates & terms, not to mention thousands of dollars in savings over the life of a home loan. It?s also more important than ever for mortgage brokers, home lenders, & real estate agents to help their borrowers qualify for a home loan instead of just passing on the potential borrower because they currently have a low credit score.

According to Jeremy Honor, V.P of sales for MFI Credit Solutions, a nationwide credit reporting agency, ?an individual’s credit score is made up of a complex algorithm and their own personal credit profile,” ?On top of this, the credit scores that are used by lenders to approve mortgage loans, are different then the consumer credit scores which are used mostly for credit card approval, car loans, & ?free annual credit reports?. Home lenders will not accept consumer credit reports for lending purposes.? Jeremy says. “While the scoring models are based on some of the same factors, the mortgage rating score does not correlate with the consumer rating score. This can create confusion for a borrower who thinks they have a high score in general, only to find out that their mortgage score is much lower than their consumer credit score, or vice a versa.”

What can be done to increase your credit scores so you qualify for home financing? How many points will you get for taking specific actions to increase your credit score?

To end all the credit score increase confusion, MFI Credit Solutions offers an exclusive service called Credit Mapping? which eliminates the guesswork for getting higher credit scores!

Credit Mapping? provides home buyers & homeowners with a detailed, custom easy to read “credit map” which explains to them step by step in plain English or Spanish, the actions they need to take in order to achieve their score goals, how long it will take them to reach their desired score, and most important how many potential score points they will gain by taking the specified actions! The average increase is 35 points & your credit scores can be increased in a week! MFI Credit Solutions will also provide a 12 month credit score forecast. The average increase is 70+ points after 3 months! Once a person has completed the required steps, a new credit report will be pulled to validate score increase.
Credit Mapping? is not ?credit repair?! If the borrower doesn?t follow the instructions in their personal Credit Mapping? then their scores won?t drastically increase. MFI Credit Solutions will do nothing physical to increase a person?s credit score such as write letters to creditors or open disputes, etc. as most credit repair scams often do.

Credit Mapping? is the perfect tool for a potential home buyer, existing home owners, or people that filed for bankruptcy. They can call & work with a trained Credit Mapping? specialist to understand what actions they need to take in order to get their credit scores up before they start working with a mortgage broker, home lender, or real estate agent to ensure they will qualify for a home loan.

Credit Mapping? is also the perfect tool for mortgage loan originators, home lenders, & real estate agents because you can ?bring your dead deals back to life?! Remember all those clients that didn?t qualify for financing because they had low credit scores? Now you can re-contact your previously declined clients to do a Credit Mapping? so they will qualify! The Credit Mapping? service is billed directly to the home buyer / home owner so mortgage professionals don’t need to collect the small investment fee.

Credit Mappings? are an investment of only $119.00 per person!

Home owners & home buyers that want to order their own Credit Mapping? call 855-MAP-CREDIT.
If you are a Mortgage loan professional (originator / home lender / real estate agent) & want MFI Credit Solutions to do a Credit Mapping? for your borrower then call 877-MFI-DATA.

Global Mission for Children, a Worldwide Child Sponsorship Charity Announces Breaking of Ground on the Island of Formosa, Guinea Bissau


Bradenton, FL (Sharewellnewswire.com) August 29, 2012 – GlobalMissionforChildren.org (“GMFC”), a worldwide Christian children’s charity announced today they are nearing completion of a church and a school on the island of Formosa, a small island off the coast of Guinea Bissau. GMFC has successfully served people on the island of Uno, Guinea Bissau for the last 8 ½ years.

James Miller, co-founder of Global Mission for Children states “we are very excited to announce this milestone. We have prayed profusely to expand our reach to bring food, medicine, clean water, education and the love of God to as many areas of Africa we possibly can.” GMFC has served in the poorest countries in the world, Guinea Bissau & Niger Africa and Nepal, Asia for the past 8 ½ years and have helped thousands. Pastor Wilson Westphal, co-founder of GMFC states “the fulltime missionaries have given up their lives to help these less fortunate children. We are in desperate need of donations as millions more children need to be helped and soon”.

Global Mission for Children was founded after Pastors Wilson and Andrea Westphal returned from a 2 week mission trip to visit 6 fulltime missionaries on the island of UNO off the coast of Guinea Bissau. UNO is a 12-hour boat ride off the coast and has no electricity, running water or sanitation and very little food, if any. The GMFC missionaries are the only lifeline the residents of the sixth poorest county in the world have. GMFC is the only relief organization in the areas they serve.

It is a fact that 24,000 people die in Africa daily, with 75% of them being children. By the time it takes one to read this press release, approximately 30 children will die of hunger, poverty, curable diseases, lack of clean drinking water, government oppression, illiteracy and horrible cults like witchcraft.

One of these horrific rituals is performed on the island of UNO. Each spring Mothers, Aunts and Grandmothers lead their 12-15 year old girls to waiting men. The men perform witchcraft rituals that include beatings, rape, branding, painful piercings and total brainwashing. After the young girls return from enduring the horrors of the 50 day rituals, you can see in their eyes that they are completely lost, terrified and broken. They are now slaves to these men and forced to do all the work. It is unbelievable that the young girls’ so called “loved ones” condone these inhumane rituals!

“We need thousands of sponsors to put a dent in saving the 24,000 people who are dying daily in Africa alone” James explains. People are dying daily on the islands of Guinea Bissau and Formosa and with more money we would be able to help many more children. Cures for these deadly diseases, in most cases, could be administered with just a few dollars per person.

Sponsoring a child through organizations like GMFC will literally save countless lives and give these forgotten children hope for a future. GMFC also has missionaries in Niger, Africa and Nepal, Asia and for just $1 a day one can sponsor a child, watch them flourish and grow and literally save their life from certain death.

PulseTech’s Solar Products Harness The Power of Sunshine To Charge and Maintain 12V and 24V Batteries


SOUTHLAKE, TX (Sharewellnewswire.com) August 29, 2012 - While the U.S. government continues to seek out alternate ways to provide clean energy to Americans, PulseTech® Products Corporation is ahead of the curve, providing consumers with a series of solar powered solutions to continually charge, maintain and significantly extend the normal lifecycles of 12V and 24V batteries.

PulseTech® Products Corporation, headquartered near Dallas, TX, has maximized battery performance while minimizing battery-related expenses for commercial fleets, military, emergency responders and the general public since 1994.

“PulseTech’s solar panel lineup has over the last decade proven to be an excellent solution for commercial vehicles and generators that spend much of their life outdoors as well as for boaters and sailors on the water,” said Pete Smith, PulseTech® president.

Smith said the company’s solar products are designed for any 12V or 24V battery and come in 2,5, 6, and 25watt versions.

“Anytime the sun is shining these durable solar-based products apply PulseTech’s patented one – two punch; a charge combined with its patented high frequency pulse technology, to maintain and condition your vehicle or equipment battery while in use or while sitting idle.” said Smith.

As a battery ages through use or sits unused for periods of time, lead sulfate crystals can enlarge and build-up excessively to the point where they create a physical barrier across the surface of the battery plates. Before long, this build-up can become so dense that a battery is no longer able to accept or release energy

In addition to the trickle charging function that regularly provide daily “vitamins” to batteries, Smith said PulseTech’s exclusive, patented Pulse Technology cleans (desulfates) the plates and brings the battery to a like-new state capable of holding a full charge. The combination has proven to extend 12V lead acid battery life up to 3-5X what is typical.
Not only does poorly or inefficiently managed battery maintenance lead to early failure and unnecessary replacement costs but can also lead to “emergency” and expensive jump starts and take away from the vehicle’s daily schedule and ability to perform. Downtime is money lost and premature battery replacements—especially for commercial fleets— is a budget breaker.


Police and rescue agencies along with the Department of Homeland security have been successfully using a hybrid lightbar product that incorporates a 12V EVR 6 watt system for over three years.

Smith said his company, which has worked closely with the military to develop tough, battlefield ready solar panels, continues to work with the private sector to develop and customize options to suit specific needs.


One example of a military designed crossover into the civilian sector is the commercial version of the 24V battery desulfating and charging systems. Considered the most effective 24-volt solar charges on the market, PulseTech’s 24V series are designed to maintain batteries on equipment or vehicles left in long-term outside storage for weeks and even months.

The 24V solar products desulfate, charge, and maintain all types of generators and vehicles with 24-volt lead acid battery systems, including conventional flooded, AGM and VRLA types.

“If you've used solar chargers before, you know it's important to choose the right solar panel for the amount of power you need and the size and place of the mounting location,” he said “In the past, to get the power you needed you had to struggle with panels that were too big, too bulky and too fragile. With PulseTech's solar products, you can get the power you need with the most installation options for your outdoor vehicles or equipment.”

All of PulseTech”s solar systems, according to Smith, feature higher efficiency, higher quality crystalline silicone cells pack more power per square inch than standard amorphous "thin film" solar cells and have a longer life. Typically, “crystalline” solar cells have a footprint that is 50% smaller than the common amorphous cells that are commonly used.

This results in providing the power needed in a sturdier, smaller sized solar panel. Instead of a breakable glass coating, PulseTech's solar panels are protected with a clear, polyurethane plastic coating mounted on a laminated aluminum substrate to make them virtually indestructible and impervious to weather, aging and damage from bumps and knocks.
