maryland mortgage company: Value your broker and they will value you
- 12/10/09 08:14 AM
When shopping for a loan, you need to ask yourself what it is that you are shopping for. Are you shopping for the lowest rate and lowest cost? Are you looking for a professional that may not be the least expensive, but earns every bit of his/her fee? Is there value in working with a local mortgage broker, as opposed to a huge internet company? If you want the lowest rate and cost, all you have to do is get a good faith estimate from a broker and send it to another broker. The 2nd broker will send you an estimate (0 comments)

maryland mortgage company: Mortgage rates headed into unchartered waters; this is very good!
- 11/30/09 12:03 AM
Those pundits and arm chair quarterbacks out there who were predicting mortgage rates below 4.5% are either really good or really lucky. The truth is, it does not matter. As of 8:40 on Monday 11/30/2009 we appear headed to opening rates at 4.375% or lower with 1 point upfront. To overuse a phrase that is already grossly overused, this is a perfect storm. Home values have stabilized and in many markets like Montgomery County, MD ; home values have started to rise in some pockets. This makes it an ideal time to refinance or purchase, especially if you have a JUMBO (2 comments)

maryland mortgage company: No Closing Cost Refinance Maryland, Virginia & DC
- 09/30/09 04:32 AM
No Closing Cost refinances are back! Back in April I wrote a blog about No Closing cost mortgages actually being more costly than a zero point or 1 point mortgage. This was due to the small spread between rates. As the market has become healthier over the past 5 months, spreads have widened. This has made NO CLOSING COST refinances an attractive option once again. Let's take a look based on today's mortgage rates. I am going to assume good credit, a $300,000 loan and 70% loan to value and $2800 in closing cost: NO POINTS 4.875% = $1587 monthly principle (0 comments)

maryland mortgage company: What have we learned this summer about interest rates? LOCK IN NOW!
- 08/17/09 04:01 AM
From early March until May 27th we were enjoying record low interest rates. When I say low, I mean REALLY low. I was writing loans as low as 4.375% 30 yr fixed with ZERO points. Despite all of this, I had clients that refused to lock as they waited for 4% or even lower. Those clients got burned and will likely not make the same mistake again. Take a look at the chart below and you can see just how drastically the market can move in a day

maryland mortgage company: How to get the JUNK out of your closing cost!
- 08/11/09 03:26 AM
It is imperative to compare apples to apples when shopping for your mortgage. Just because one broker offers you the lowest rate, it does not necessarily mean that they are offering you the best deal. To find out what the best option is for you, you must compare Good Faith Estimates side by side. Here are some important things to look for: Most "junk fees" will be found in the 800 lines of the GFE. Below you will see what excessive fees will look like
The 800 section is what you need to pay the most attention to. Everything else (0 comments)

maryland mortgage company: Rates are falling and my rate is locked! What do I do?
- 06/26/09 06:50 AM
"I locked my interest rate at 5.5% and now rates are going down, what do I do?" With rates returning to the 5% level and possibly going lower, many consumers who "locked in" their interest rate over the past 3 weeks are now left asking this very question. First I must say, that you were not a fool for locking in a great rate in a volatile market when rate were rising. The probability that rates would continue to rise was just as great, if not greater than the chances they would fall. I say to clients all day long :"IF (0 comments)
