real estate services: Military Monday: How Military Homeowners Can Guard Against Title Fraud
- 11/17/24 08:11 AM
Military families may be more susceptible to a unique type of real estate fraud: title fraud, sometimes called deed fraud. What is title fraud, and why might military homeowners be more risky?

Mortgage rates rose this week, with the selloff due to the market starting to price in election outcomes of November. We have seen a steep rate increase in the last few weeks; it is simply down to the economy being more robust than the market expected, along with the market starting to price in specific election outcomes. The market got ahead of itself in pricing in a sudden economic slowdown, and now bond yields are moving higher with the realization the economy is not that weak.
