home loans cary nc: These are a Few of My Favorite Things... - 03/05/08 10:28 AM
My husband, Steve, and I work together - he didn't really get the whole "blogging thing..." But we had a blast last night meeting new people who are playing in the RAIN and I think he gets it now!  I mentioned to several of you that there were some favorite sites and newsletters I thought you might want to check out.  If last night was a little fuzzy (too much coffee beer) - figured I'd remind you!
Kay Frenzer is the SEO DIVA.  As fate would have it - her blog today says that she's cutting back on the rain - I still recommend you check … (2 comments)

home loans cary nc: Bernanke and Bush on Different Planets - 02/28/08 02:01 PM
 Did anybody else think it was a little ERIE this morning when President Bush was on ONE CHANNEL saying we're NOT headed toward a recession... (maybe he agrees with me that we're already in one?)
AND SIMULTANEOUSLY Ben is giving testimoney (on CNBC) to the Senate Banking Committee that, "The U.S. economy expanded less than forecast (only 0.6%) in the fourth quarter as domestic spending declined and only an increase in exports prevented an overall contraction."
Are these guys living on different planets??? 
Bernanke did say that the Fed is going to continue easing as necessary, but frankly, he's way behind the curve, and … (3 comments)

home loans cary nc: Thanks Mike! (My AR Testimonial) - 02/06/08 07:24 AM
So I was driving home yesterday...and I noticed I'd missed a call, checked my voicemail and let out a big ole' YAHOO! fist pumpin' and all (not very lady like)!  MAN was I psyched!  I'd gotten my second call that day from people wanting to know if I could help them refinance from their Adjustable Rate Mortgage!
Okay - so two leads in one day is NOT that big a deal if you're a top producer with 20 years of experience in the same area.  I get that... and I AM a top producer with 20 years of experience all of it … (15 comments)

home loans cary nc: Why Rates Are Not Lower - 02/05/08 09:08 AM

The Fed lowered interest rates  - and all we've gotten is this little 36 hour "refi boomlet."  What's wrong?  Why don't we have lower rates and a full fledge refi BOOM!?!  Well, part of the problem is just like the cartoon describes... no one was listening. 
The OTHER problem comes from the move on July 6, 2007 by the SEC to eliminate the "up-tick rule."  Prior to July 6th - a stock could only be "sold short" after the price had ticked higher during the trading day.  This made it harder to short stocks because you had to wait for a bit of a recovery … (3 comments)

home loans cary nc: Limited Time Offer - Lowest Rate in 08 - 01/16/08 02:22 PM

Too Bad - So Sad - rates are not likely to continue hitting the bottom numbers for much longer.  That's right - the Economy is suffereing, yet some think that rates could be headed HIGHER! How can that be? 
The New York Times Magazine has an article that will be out on January 20, 2008 by ROGER LOWENSTEIN.  The article speaks to the tough spot that Mr. Bernanke and the Fed is in.It also speaks to a larger issue, as it discusses forecasting and how Bernanke has been able to use the information available to create a path for the future.  In other words they don't think Bernanke … (0 comments)
