Financial tip: Using Calculators Can Add up to Financial Health

Even though many people live paycheck-to-paycheck, financial consultants say it’s best to plan for the future. From paying off debt to saving for your children’s education to building up a retirement fund, everyone must have a plan before they can reach their financial goals.

Residents of Gainesville, Florida apartments have some advantages when it comes to saving money. Apartment rent is almost always cheaper than the expense of a mortgage, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and home repairs. With the extra money apartment residents save with these living expenses, they are often better able to build a solid financial foundation that will serve their needs for years into the future.

To figure out your current financial health and outline a plan for financial goals, you’ll have to do a lot of “number crunching.” Adding and subtracting in a checkbook is relatively easy. Where most of us run into trouble is understanding loans, savings accounts, and interest rates. For example, how much should you send every month on a credit card to pay it off in a specified amount of time? Go to www.bankrate.com/calculators/credit-cards/credit-card-payoff-calculator.aspx for a quick solution. Another page on this website, www.bankrate.com/brm/calc/savecalc.asp, will outline daily and weekly saving requirements if you want to retire with a certain dollar amount in your “nest egg.” Hey, time is money, and with the online calculators that are available now, you can save a lot of time during your quest to manage money!

“The scenery and space is amazing. The apartment leasing staff and maintenance staff are wonderful. I love that its a gated community and all though it's family and student oriented it's still extremely quiet.”
“This is a quiet gated community with nice apartments located in a great area.”
“We just moved in about a month ago. We had maintenance in so many times trying to get things set up for my disabled son - but they never complained. The grounds are beautiful. The people in the office are always polite and helpful. Very happy here.”
