Rates Get Better

I mentioned on Friday that interest rates were on a roller coaster ride late last week. Fortunately, I noticed that mortgage bonds were overbought midweek and got my clients locked in saving most of them 0.125% on their 30 year fixed mortgages. This saved them anywhere from $25 and $40 per month. I look forward to helping your clients too. This weeks newsletter explains what happened last week.

THE TIME IS NEARING END FOR NEHEMIAH AND DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS (DAP)!

Let’s get those buyers off the fence asap! Franklin Loan Center’s platform is strong so utilize me with your clients who need to close fast. FHA IN 21-30 DAYS! At the end of September, as you know, the DAP will be going away, yet we have until September 5th to get the deals accepted and opened. If you have a buyer who needs to use these programs call me asap! If they can’t close before the end of September we can use a gift from a family member or other non-profit organization as long as the seller is not contributing toward the downpayment, up to 6% toward closing costs are still okay!

Call me today to get the ball rolling. I’ll pay for the appraisal send along the attached flyer with your client during the pre-qual interview.

I’m never too busy for any of your referrals.

Give me the opportunity to make you look good…
We’ve had a great rally this week in the mortgage market and I’ve locked my pipeline to protect my clients from higher interest rates. This week I’ve save most of my clients 0.125% or more on their interest rate and they’re happy with the lower payments.

Tough to get qualified?

This week there are several important reports coming out to gauge where the economy is and is going. With the current volatility in the mortgage industry, true knowledge and insight are more valuable than ever, which is why I monitor the market throughout the day and keep you informed of changes that impact you.

Even though the media is saying it’s tough to get qualified for a mortgage I am not finding that to be true. Let me know what I can do to help your clients get qualified! Make it a great week!

Market Update

Mortgage Bonds are trading higher this morning, despite a report that manufacturing in NY is stronger than anticipated.

Normally a better-than-expected economic report would be bad for Bond prices. However, the declining prices of oil, precious metals and other commodities have decreased inflationary pressures and have helped push Bonds higher so far today.

We got a rally late today for the better I recommend floating for now.
