The Diversified Economy of Middle Tennessee
 Nashville and surrounding areas enjoy a thriving economy in terms of the number and types of businesses that have decided to call this area home. Our diversity cushions and lessens the impact or economic downturns. The printing and medical industries have always been some of the largest employers here. In more recent years, industries such as Nissan, Saturn, Dell Computers, Verizon and others have located large facilities in the mid state area. Needless to say, the music industry thrives in this part of Tennessee with both Country, Christian and Pop music companies located throughout. Middle Tennessee is also a commercial distribution hub in the Mid-South especially for ground transport. The three major Interstate highways, I-40, I-65 and I-24 make us a natural crossroad for commerce. Light manufacturing also has an influencing impact here. Since Nashville is the seat of our state government and Capital, its influence on our economy speaks for itself. The other major influence in our area is health related services with HCA as one one of the largest.

Financing Your Home >If You Are Self Employed
There's no question that it could be more difficult for you to get a mortgage loan if you are a free lance viola player than if you are a government accountant. Traditionally, lenders have been more cautious when evaluating loan applications of buyers who are self-employed than people who work for a regular salary.
However, if you are self-employed, there is no reason for you to shy away from applying for a home mortgage loan, especially if your earnings have been in the same field for at least two years. It is a good idea to meet with one or more loan officers before you begin your search. They will probably want to analyze your tax returns for the past 2 or 3 years, keeping in mind that many self employed people can look impoverished on paper, since you can write off some expenses that salaried individuals can not. Try to get pre-approval from the lender, and ask for a letter stating that you have pre-qualified for a loan which your real estate agent can attach to any offer you submit on a home. This will make you more attractive to the sellers.
