Finance Market Update March 31, 2008 - 03/31/08 09:38 AM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
Mortgage bond prices fell last week pushing mortgage interest rates considerably higher. Most of the data was bond friendly showing signs the economy continued to struggle. Unfortunately Fed warnings of creating "conditions for sustainable inflation over the long term" rekindled inflation concerns. Inflation erodes the value of fixed income securities and generally leads to higher mortgage interest rates.
For the week, interest rates on government and conventional loans rose by over a full discount point.
The employment report Friday will be the most important event this week. The potential for market volatility is high surrounding the ISM Index and factory … (0 comments)

Low-Maintenance Landscaping - Brentwood TN Real Estate - 03/30/08 09:22 AM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
For most people, the prospect of landscaping fills them with dread as they contemplate the work/effort associated with taking care of plants, gardens and trees without spending a lot of money to have someone else do it. There are people who enjoy working on their landscapes for hours (and this is commendable), and there are those who wish to have as little trouble, and spend as little money as possible in their home's yard. This is also fine. Luckily, for those who want to have a beautifully appointed home, it is possible to do so with low-maintenance landscaping. By carefully choosing plants that need little … (7 comments)

Do You Respect You Clients and Your Job? Whats Good For The Goose... - 03/29/08 01:55 PM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
I am constantly baffled and appalled at the variation I see and hear about in the commitment, communication and service levels of real estate agents. Case in point, I took a listing on once that was repped by another agent for 6 months previously. The seller found me on an Internet search and contacted me. They told me the contract was up shortly(but did not know exactly when as they did not have a copy of the listing agreement) and they were very dissatisfied with the representation they had received. The home had not been marketed aggressively and … (9 comments)

Does "The Public" Need An Attitude Adjustment?! - 03/27/08 09:29 PM
I have recently become very frustrated with the general public's seeming lack of courtesy toward Realtors in general. From the sellers who have spent the listing agents time and money and arbitrarily decide to wait until next year to sell versus lowering the price $5-10,000, to the buyers who contact you, ask for hours of search time and results, then hours of showings and are unwilling to sign a buyer rep agreement and/or simply disappear not returning calls or emails. My time is valuable and should be treated thus. At the minimum I deserve an email letting me know what is … (97 comments)

And Then What? Finance Issues Still Causing Problems! - 03/27/08 12:34 PM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
So President Bush gives some money out, not much, but some. The FHA limit is raised, and tax breaks are implemented for PMI. And then what? PMI companies have decided not to underwrite over 97% loan to value and the PMI payments are like a car payment. 100% mortgages are nearly impossible to find and credit scores under 680 make you Persona non Grata for a loan. And exactly where is the help I keep hearing about? Have I missed it by blinking? Did it rush past me when I turned my head? Maybe so. This problem is … (2 comments)

Suggestions For Purchasing a Central Air Conditioning Unit - 03/19/08 09:05 AM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
Summer is fast approaching in Brentwood TN and your air conditioner just does not work the way it used too. It barely cools, if it does anything at all. You have tried cleaning it. You have tried flushing it. You have tried everything including kick it and hit it with a mallet. The service man wants to charge you an arm and a leg, and probably a few other body parts to repair it. You are left with only one other choice. Spend all that money to repair a central air conditioning unit that is 20 years old, or spend … (7 comments)

Finance Market Update, March 17, 2008 - Brentwood TN Real Estate - 03/17/08 02:57 PM
Mortgage bond prices rose last week pushing mortgage interest rates lower. Trading was volatile the entire week. The Fed stepped in absorbing some of the oversupply of mortgage bonds. Inflationary pressures were eased with the consumer price index lower than expected. The financial markets were rattled a bit as the Fed and JPMorgan Chase helped Bear Stearns with funding.
For the week, interest rates on government and conventional loans fell by about a full discount point.
The Fed meeting Tuesday will be the most important event this week. The potential for market volatility is very high surrounding the Fed meeting. Industrial production, capacity … (1 comments)

Finance Market Comment March 10, 2008 Brentwood TN Real Estate - 03/10/08 11:03 AM
Brentwood TN Real Estate
Mortgage bond prices fell last week pushing mortgage interest rates significantly higher. The spread between Treasuries and mortgage-bonds continued to widen as banks and portfolio investors sold mortgage bonds to raise cash for battered balance sheets. This selling pressure coupled with investors already leery of mortgage related debt sent prices through the floor pushing rates considerably higher.
For the week, interest rates on government and conventional loans rose by 3/8% to 1/2% in rate.
The consumer price index data Friday will be the most important event this week. Trade data, retail sales, and consumer sentiment also have the real potential … (1 comments)
