john, yur question comes from brandy in kansas.in, my husband and i have enough in savings to buy our first home as a cash purchase, but the property we like will need some work before we move in. should we finance the home purchase or take out a loan for the repairs? >> i like the idea of buying the house as planned and taking out a heloc. it's not overbearing but large enough to cover the cost of repairs. the good news is the interest on helocs is generally tax deductible, and not bad for your credit score, and the interest rate is usually about 3 or 4%, really good rates right now. >> michelle said, we're underwater on our mortgage. we do not have a government-backed loan. we have a va loan guarantee loao available if we refinance. what should we do? >> the v.a. prospect is a good option to consider. however since they might have a loan from one of the major five lenders lie citi or chase or j.p. morgan, wells fargo, et cetera, b of a. those lenders as we know just signed an agreement with the attorneys general around is the cou

whitney was supposed to interview after me, talk about brandy for behind the music on vh1.he wouldn't be able to do it because she was dead, had passed away. so it has been a chaotic scene since then of people coming in for clive davis' party, because it is too late to let people know not to come, and people are walking around sort of in a daze, not believing what happened. >> do people appear to have had the news as they enter the party? >> some had, some hadn't. it was a period mix of people being aware of it, and a lot of guests in the hotel not being aware of what happened, just sort of being clueless to why the crime lab was outside, and sort of why the police are around. >> we understand there were reports that the beverly hills police were saying her body is still at the beverly hilton in that room. is that true? have you heard that? >> my understanding is that she hasn't been removed as of yet. >> do we know if clive davis is in the beverly hilton yet for his event? >> most of the party guests had arrived, one would assume he was already here and he had been here ye

this was a interview she agreed to sit down and talk about brandy who was a mentor -- for brandy behinde music. >> and let me ask you, janelle, you've been following her for a long time. you were at the clive davis party she was going to on saturday night. a year ago you saw her there. what can you tell us about how she seemed? did she seem like she had issues or not? >> here's the thing with whitney houston. i think because she was such an amazing talent and we all have so many memories attached to her, i do, positive childhood memories. we didn't want to ever see her outside of her heyday. we didn't want to see her in this fall from grace that we most recently saw her. so when she walked the red carpet last year with clive davis hand in hand to that event, that was the one time of the year they would see her. she was not a person to be on the red carpet circuit. so when clive davis walked her down into the room and she actually performed, it was a bit off. i remember tweeting about it and being hesitant because i didn't want to say what i was thinking which is this is a mess, but it's

>> recently she had been dating r&b singer ray j, brandy's brother. she has been dating him. he is a lot younger than her. i think a lot of her association with him was to gain back that presence and gain back that paparazzi appeal. she was seen leaving clubs recently with ray-j. i think in my opinion, we're going to attempt to be relevant, to be seen and photographed, not so much a love interest, but i could be wrong. that's what it seemed from the outside looking in. >> do you think that a lot of what happened to her was mis -- on her part, mismanagement of her pr, personal pr, because once she married him, she sort of let everybody into their lives? >> i think it was just the fact that whitney hadn't had a lot of real life experience. clive davis found her when she was so i don't think, she shot to notoriety before actually having lived on her own, been from out of under her gospel roots with her mother, so it was mismanagement of pr, but it was also whitney learning how to be a woman. she got attached with bobby brown who was a bad boy at the time, and she was attracted t
