mark taylor hud fha va usda jumbo and conventional mortgage loans in arizona and california: Geopolitics Have Mortgage Rates Poised To Change - 05/03/11 03:37 AM

For example, in 2011, mortgage rates have expired every 3-and-a-half hours, on average. That's fast.
There's two main catalysts for changing mortgage rates.
The first can be grouped as "scheduled events"; the planned release of market data which includes the Existing Home Sales report, or a scheduled government statement such as when the Federal Open Market Committee meets. When the outcomes of these event-types either exceed, or fall short, of Wall Street's expectations, mortgage markets react.

mark taylor hud fha va usda jumbo and conventional mortgage loans in arizona and california: What's ahead for Mortgage Rates this Week - 05/02/11 02:18 AM

Mortgage markets improved last week overall. Bigger concerns for Eurozone debt combined with lesser concerns for domestic inflation to push U.S. mortgage rates lower.
Last week marked the 3rd consecutive week through which conforming mortgage rates dropped, the longest such streak since February.
Mortgage rates in Phoenix are now scraping their lowest levels of the year.
A few interesting stories developed last week.
First, the Federal Open Market Committee met and voted to hold the Fed Funds Rate within its target range of 0.000-0.250. In its post-meeting press release, the FOMC said that inflation has been “pushed up” in recent months, … (0 comments)

mark taylor hud fha va usda jumbo and conventional mortgage loans in arizona and california: Good news for a change - yeah! - 04/20/11 07:17 AM

As written in the footnotes, there’s no “statistical evidence to conclude that the actual change [in Housing Starts] is different from zero.”
In other words, single-family Housing Starts may have dropped up to 7 percent last month, or may have increased by as much as … (0 comments)

Inflation pressures are mounting in the United States. And, Friday, the Consumer Price Index should prove it.
More commonly called "The Cost of Living Index", CPI measures cost changes in the typical items bought by American households. Among others, CPI measures goods and service in apparel and recreation; medical care and education; and housing and transportation.
The March CPI data is expected to show an increase in the cost of living for the 17th straight month - a reading that would take CPI to an all-time high.
