WEEKLY RATE – HIGHER RATES GET RELIEF ON MONDAY

WEEKLY RATE – HIGHER RATES GET RELIEF ON MONDAY

I hope everyone is having a fantastic week!!

In this weekly rate we discuss:

– The volatility in the interest rate markets

WEEKLY INTEREST RATE PRICING:

Last week, interest rates continued rising which has been the case for most of the past 2 months.

Interest rates were at their highest levels in 3 years with the Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market trading down – 102 bps. With the stock market on a bull run, there was less and less demand for bonds which contributed to the recent rise in rates.

On Monday February 5th, the stock market finally hit a snag and had a huge sell off (which is likely to continue on Tuesday). This pushed money into bonds and the MBS market closed up + 52 bps on Monday. Finally we saw some interest rate improvement and relief from the recent rise.

It remains to be seen if the stock market drop will start a larger trend towards a market correction.

Interest rates will remain volatile as long as there are large swings in the market.

Below are today’s mortgage interest rates and links to apply for a mortgage or get a free mortgage quote.

Have a great week!!

WEEKLY RATE – FED RATE HIKE LIKELY COMING IN DECEMBER

I hope everyone is having a fantastic week!!

In this weekly rate we discuss current interest rate news and an important change to the Arizona Down Payment Assistance Program. Starting off with interest rates.

WEEKLY RATE

Interest rates improved slightly in the last week of November 2017.

Rate pricing improved about 10 bps in costs at each rate with the Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market finishing the week up + 9 bps.

For well qualified customers, they can obtain a 30 year fixed rate at 3.99% with .75 points (4.15% APR), and a 4.25% with 0 points (4.29% APR).

Rate volatility will likely increase to close out 2017.

On December 12th and 13th, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is meeting and will likely raise the Federal Funds rate. Congress will be working to get through an updated tax plan which will affect the markets.

News about holiday shopping and employment will also play a key role in interest rate pricing.

If you are still thinking about refinancing, if you start now you can still miss December and January’s mortgage payment.

Below are today’s interest rates.  Have a great week!!

MAJOR CHASE TO ARIZONA DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM – HOME PLUS AND HOME IN 5

Effective, January 2, 2018 on all new HOME Plus reservations the assistance provided will be in the form of a three-year, no interest, no payment, deferred soft second mortgage, forgiven monthly at a rate of 1/36 over the term of the lien.

Currently, clients are utilizing down payment assistance programs to help get into their homes with little to no money down.   

Down Payment Assistance program utilize higher rates than a traditional mortgage to help offset the grant money being paid. Many lenders are soliciting these borrowers right after closing to lower their rate.

This is a smart tactic, but it makes the program unsustainable as the higher rate is helping pay for the grant.

If they are immediately being paid off, the program is losing money.

Effective on all new Home Plus reservations after January 2nd – the grant will be a silent 2nd completely forgivable after 3 years.

This will create a combined loan to value likely over 100%, preventing lenders from coming in to immediately refinance the down payment assistance loans.

HOW CAN YOU USE THIS TO YOUR ADVANTAGE:

Once the silent 2nd goes into effect, it will be difficult for borrowers using down payment assistance to refinance shortly after closing.

But, they can still utilize the grant if they act fast and get under contract in December.

Once the silent 2nd goes into effect, borrowers will likely have to remain in a higher down payment assistance rate for a lot longer because of the higher combined loan to value and rate pricing is worse when you have 2 loans.

They will also have less equity if they sell within 3 years.

WEEKLY RATE – TABLE IS SET FOR HIGHER RATES

WEEKLY RATE – TABLE IS SET FOR HIGHER RATES

Interest rate pricing had a bad week.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed down heavily 3 of the 5 days, finishing the week closing down – 54 bps.

More importantly, the table is set for potential rapid rate increases.

The Senate passed the budget, opening the door for a Trump tax reform coming. Lower taxes are looked upon favorably by stocks, but the bond and rate markets typically move in a opposite direction. If tax reform causes stocks to continue their rapid incline, rates will be hurt with less interest in bonds.

There is also speculation that Janet Yellen (generally having been favorable for low interest rate pricing) may not be the next FED Chair.

The table is set and the potential is there for rapid rate increases in the future. Lock your rates. Don’t wait on the sidelines hoping rates will drop again.

WEEKLY RATE – FED INTEREST RATE DECISION THIS WEDNESDAY

WEEKLY RATE – FED INTEREST RATE DECISION THIS WEEK

Mortgage interest rates have steadily risen over the past week.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed last week down -26 bps, and closed Monday down – 6 bps. Not a huge move, but interest rates have definitely moved off the 2017 lows they were at 2 weeks ago. Current rate pricing is close to .125% higher than the lows of previous week.

The Federal Reserve Board holds it’s meeting Tuesday 9/19 and Wednesday 9/20 with an interest rate decision on Wednesday. I expect the FED to raise rates, but not until their December meeting. The FED will likely also announce plans to either taper or not taper their balance sheet at a defined time. This will likely also affect rate pricing and the general direction of mortgage rates.

I think it’s safer to lock in rate pricing before the FED statement on Wednesday.

WEEKLY RATE – FED INTEREST RATE DECISION THIS WEDNESDAY

WEEKLY RATE – RATES MAKE MOVE HIGHER

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Make Move Higher

After hitting the lowest levels of the year on Tuesday, September 5th, mortgage interest rates have steadily risen.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed the past 5 days down – 20 bps. Not a drastic movement higher, but enough to move interest rates off their recent lows.

With UN Sanctions on North Korea, investors are moving their safety investment in bonds to securities. Also, Hurricane Irma’s damage was thought to be a 100 billion dollar hit against insurance companies. Those estimates have been revised to 20 – 40 billion, pushing insurance company stocks higher.

The stock market moving up is bad for interest rates and has been responsible for the recent rise in rates. Whenever you see a low in interest rate pricing, it’s smart to take advantage of it. Rate pricing is typically only down for a day or two and most consumers miss it.

WEEKLY RATE – RATES MAKE MOVE HIGHER

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Go Deeper Into 2017 Lows

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Go Deeper Into 2017 Lows

Interest rates dove deeper into their lowest levels of 2017 and the lowest levels since November 2016.

Tension between North Korea and the United States is causing some investors to push funds into the safety of the bond market, which is certainly helping interest rates at the moment.  That being said, there is not much room for substantial improvement without a major event as the market is trading at the top of it’s average range.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market ended last week trading up + 6 bps, and closed Tuesday up + 40 bps.

Moving forward, September could be a volatile month for markets.  The geopolitical events of international conflict and natural disasters in the US will continue to affect the market and interest rates.  Congress is now back in session and one of the first items on the agenda will be increasing the debt ceiling and avoiding a government shut down.  How close the government comes to being shut down will affect markets.  Many central banks across the globe will be releasing policy statements this month and the FED may start cutting it’s budget. 

It’s shaping up to be an eventful month for financial markets and interest rate pricing.

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Go Deeper Into 2017 Lows

WEEKLY RATE – Interest Rates Remain at 2017 Lows

WEEKLY RATE – Interest Rates Remain at 2017 Lows

Interest rates remain at 2017 lows and at their lowest levels since November of 2016.

The 2 speeches from major financial leaders Janet Yellen and Mario Draghi didn’t touch on any significant change in monetary policy for the FED or the European Central Bank.

Last week, the Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed the week up + 13 bps and also closed Monday up + 6 bps. This is pushing 30 year fixed conventional rates to 3.875% with less than a point. Another great value is a 20 year fixed conventional loan if you are interested in lowering your term some. I can now offer a 3.625% with less than a point, and 3.875% with 0 points.

The United States Non Farm payroll report is released the first Friday of every month. August 2017’s edition will be released on Friday and this report typically affect mortgage interest rates more than any other data for the month.

Have an amazing week and we’re always available if you need help with a new home loan purchase or refinance.

WEEKLY RATE – Interest Rates Remain at 2017 Lows

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Hit 2017 Lows

WEEKLY RATE – Rates Hit 2017 Lows

Interest rates trended down last week, ending at the lowest levels we’ve seen in 2017 and since November of 2016. 15, 20 and 30 Year Fixed rates are entrenched well in the 3%’s.

Now is a great time to reevaluate your mortgage to see if you can save money through a refinance. We can put together refinance options quickly on the phone or by having you answer a few simple questions on our website.

There is not a ton of interest rate news this week until Friday, when the heavy weights of the economy meet in Jackson Hole.

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT – Down Payment Assistance Programs

 

 

 

 

Down payment assistance non repayable grants are available in many states and counties. We specialize in the Arizona Down Payment assistance programs Home Plus and Home in 5, but we also offer down payment assistance programs in other states when they are available.

The main tenets of down payment assistance are when a borrower qualifies with credit and income but does not have (or does not want to use) money for a down payment. Most programs are non repayable grants where your regular 3 to 3.5% down payment requirement are paid for through the grant.

To qualify, you typically have to have a credit score in the mid 600’s or above and we have to get your debt to income ratio to 45% or below.

If you are wanting to buy a home, but haven’t saved or don’t want to use your money for a down payment – please give us a call. We can let you know the same day whether you are eligible for down payment assistance and what grants may be available to you.

As always, have an amazing week and we’re always available if you need help with a new home loan purchase or refinance.

WEEKLY RATE – INTEREST RATES REMAIN STABLE

WEEKLY RATE – Interest Rates Remain Stable

Interest rates continue to ebb and flow, but remain remarkably consistent when looking at rate pricing over a week or longer period.

30 Year Fixed rates are still sticking in the high 3%’s with less than a point and 4.125% at 0 points.

The Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) market closed last week up + 30 bps, and is trading down – 20 bps so far this week. Some ups and downs, but very consistent and stable

I expect rates to continue in this fashion until at least the next FED meeting.

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT – Early Access Product

We have a great product that allows home owner’s to refinance or purchase without waiting the long periods required by Conventional, FHA, and VA.

The Early Access product is a great solution to finance now with the goal to switch to a conventional loan down the line.

Below are some of the details of this great product:

620+ credit score required
