This affordable plan allows you to have an attorney on "retainer". What I mean is that you can call and get your legal questions answered by an attorney under your membership plan. I like my membership a lot. They have family plans and business owner plans.

Rates Better, But Not New Activity
Again the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell to a new record low, Freddie Mac reported.

But still, mortgage activity declined 7 percent this week based on the Mortgage Market Index.

Business Deteriorates at LendingTree
LendingTree Loans closed 43 percent fewer loans during the second quarter than it did a year earlier, according to earnings data from its parent company.

Matched requests at the exchanges segment tumbled 19 percent during the same period.

The company reported 38 fewer exchange segment closings.

Fifth Third Touts Refinance Ops
Refinance volume at Fifth Third Mortgage Co. totaled $4 billion between April 2009 and now, the company reported.

Many customers are taking advantage of the lowest rates since the government's Home Affordable Refinance Program began, the announcement indicated.

On numerous occasions, Freddie Mac has recognized Fifth Third for running "one of the most efficient relief refinance operations in the country," according to the statement.
