Interest rates hit bottom, first time home buyers should buy before the prices go back up
We have a special guest back in the studio today. Dan Havey has been a great promoter for Velocity Financial . Dan and I have been working together for about 14 years now. Dan has brought with him some really, really interesting facts and figures for people who are wondering whats happening, wondering if we are at the bottom of the market, wondering how much further we are going to have to go. We are going to talk about lots of different things like that. Hes got some really good information, in my opinion some good stuff, some good solid data to make some good decisions about whether or not you should or should not buy right now.
So, Today was the official day that President Obamas Plan was rolled out. It was designed to help some 8 to 9 million homeowners, responsibly homeowners they called them, people who purchased homes at the peak of the real estate market with 20% or more down. The plan is just so darned convoluted, it is very complicated, people are calling wondering whats real, whats not real, whats going to happen. The bottom line is about 19% of all the homes were financed utilizing Fanny Mae or Freddie Mac financing. People, who have Fanny Mae or Freddie Mac loans, these conventional type loans, that put 20% down, that used full documentation, which means tax returns to qualify for the loan, those are the only people that are actually going to be helped with this program, and there are so many little caveats to it. I believe its not going to help nearly the number of people as intended. Its very unfortunate that its just not going to be as popular as we thought.
The other thing that people were hoping for, and we have heard this a lot that they are waiting for mortgage rates to get down to 4%, it is not going to happen. If you are out there ready to refinance but holding out waiting for rates to get back down to 4% you need to get off the fence and get something done now. The trend is upward, mortgage rates are going to go up, yes the Fed is buying mortgage backed securities so that should help a little bit. The reality of it is 4% is just not going to happen in this lifetime, so if you are in the middle of the process find something that works good for you and make it happen.
The other thing we are going to talk a lot about today is when rates do go down, which there very well may be a little dip in the next couple of weeks everyone tries to rush in and take advantage of that rate and thats not really what you should do. What you should do is get in with your lender and get the information to them now so they can start working on your loan, put your case together and have everything ready to go so if the rates do drop you will be ready to execute immediately. Interest rates are really good and we are going to spend a lot of time talking about interest rates and how to buy a home, first time home buyer programs and things like that today. But I just had to mention that I get this question all the time when can I lock in 4 and a half or 4%? Well there you go thats my prognostication I am certain that I am right but we will just have to see as time goes on…

As a property investor, your biggest costs are your mortgage payments. What if you could reduce them by 30%, 50% or even more? 
Before sub-prime mortgages, where consumers interested in getting reasonable interest rates on loans with small down payments, marginal credit scores, and/or high payment to income ratios were able to get funding, there was the FHA. The FHA was set up to help those with more difficult loans get insurance for the payments, so that lenders would be willing to fund the loans.
