So last week we joined by Sherri Eckles from Gateway Funding’s 203K department.
This week the Real Estate News was Building Starts decline to a 5 month low. So the housing starts declined 16.5% from the highs of last month. This was a greater decline than was anticipated. Interestingly the permits were up more than estimated. Silver lining for sure. On another upbeat note dreaded inflation was actually tamer than expected. We paid less for gas which was the biggest driver to a lower CPI figure. We believe that the daily snippets we see are simply more background noise. The economy is not robust and we think housing should and could be the biggest driver of a healthy economy if the banks would simply lend money.
Today Vince and I are joined by George N. Luciani, President of Capital Planning Advisory Group. Mr. Luciani holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Economics and Marketing from Villanova University, as well as master credits in Probability and Statistics from Drexel University. He has been active in the financial services industry since 1984. Mr. Luciani is the current Chairman of the Philadelphia Chapter of the Market Technician Association. He has also served as the Regional Director of the Institute, where he was responsible for representing the professional interests of approximately 3,000 Certified Financial Planner licensees in 15 societies between Maine and Maryland. Mr. Luciani is also the former Chairperson of the Princeton Society for the Institute of Certified Financial Planners.

Each week we discuss the myths of the mortgage market. It is not about rate. A higher rate with no mortgage insurance may provide a lower payment.
