mortgage: Market Update
- 03/26/10 11:15 AM
Just a few quick thoughts I wanted to get out to potential who may be wondering if now is the right time to pull the trigger on a new home purchase: 1. The Fed's purchase program for Mortgage Backed securities will end on March 31st. This will almost certainly result in higher interest rates for mortgage loans in the near future. 2. As of April 5th, the FHA up-front Mortgage Insurance Premium is going up from 1.75% to 2.25% of the base loan amount. This will increase the UFMIP for a home purchase price of $200,000 by almost $1,000. 3. To qualify … (0 comments)

mortgage: Priceless Advice from Warren Buffet
- 03/03/10 12:45 PM
"Please Hold for Mister Buffett" is the title of the current Business Week (March 8, 2010 issue, pg. 30) Magazine cover story. The tag on the cover said "What's it like to have The Oracle as your biggest shareholder? CEOs share the good and bad that comes with answering to Warren." I found one quote in the article, attributed to Mr. Buffet, very evocative. He said "Those who won't fill your pocket will fill your ears." I thought about times in my life where somebody was trying to pitch an investment to me, and the light bulb went off! If somebody is trying … (2 comments)
