real estate: The Week Ahead What Inventories and Industrial Production mean to you. - 03/09/13 11:40 PM
Market Focus: Last weeks meteoric rise and a big jobs report was welcome news to stock investors. This week should be a little choppy as the Dow’s new high is cause for many to express concerns of another “bubble”. The consensus estimate is still looking like up up and away. Let’s hope this is not in like a lion and out like a lamb.

real estate: The Week Ahead..What Beige Book and the Employment Report mean to you. - 03/02/13 09:36 PM
Market Focus: It’s Dejavue all over again. More volatility while we focus on Europe and Washington. The Euro Zone Unemployment rate is on the rise. Washington is no closer to lowering the debt then they were 5 years ago. Lat week had mostly positive reports. This week is a light week in the way of reports but the “big” employment report comes Friday (one week late to some).

real estate: The Week Ahead..What Pending Home sales and New Home Sales mean to you - 02/23/13 08:55 PM
Market Focus: After a quite short week this week is very busy with housing, manufacturing, sentiment, Fed speak, and a final reading on 4th quarter GDP. But in my opinion the biggest game changer is Europe. You read that right. Europe is back with Italian elections Sunday and Monday. This could make for a volatile week.

real estate: The Week Ahead..What Hosing Starts & Existing Home Sales means to you! - 02/17/13 05:13 AM
Market Focus: A short week with little in the way of big movers. This coupled with the end of earnings season could provide a choppy week. Let us not forget the “sequester” is only 2 weeks away. Do we negotiate to kick the can down the road again or stand by and let the cuts begin? It is anybody’s call! Read the FOMC minutes to see if the Fed is changing it’s position on monetary policy.

real estate: The Week Ahead...What Business Inventories and Consumer Setiment mean to you? - 02/09/13 09:25 PM
Market Focus: It’s a light week for reports so I will point to the Chinese New Year which is the “Year of the Snake”. This is typically not a good sign for the markets. Look for some pull bank from January’s meteoric rise as the new year begins on Sunday.

real estate: The Week Ahead...What Housing Market Index and Housing Starts mean. - 01/12/13 09:54 PM
Market Focus: It’s a pretty busy week encompassing a wide array of reports all wrapped around lots of Fed Speak and the real start of earnings this week. Price reports, housing reports, and the Beige book are just some of what we get. Look for the fireworks at the end of the week as this consumer sentiment report is the first after the Fiscal Cliff failure. Keep your eyes on Bank earnings as Wells Fargo started this off last week with a drop in their stock.

real estate: The Week Ahead...What Wholesale and International Trade mean to you! - 01/05/13 11:20 PM
Market Focus: It is a light week in the way of reports but The Bank of England and the ECB will weigh in with interest rate decisions on Thursday. Was last weeks run up just a knee jerk reaction or the real deal? I personally believe it was almost a relief rally before we worry again about the debt ceiling. Look for more volatility.

real estate: What are we Underwriting today? - 12/28/12 09:28 PM
When I entered the mortgage business we looked at credit, income, assets and collateral. These were the four basics to doing a loan. We could look at credit and determine if the potential borrower showed the propensity to pay their bills. We could calculate if the income was enough to pay all of the bills associated with owning a home and we could easily see if there were any reserves in the event of an emergency. “It was a Wonderful Life”. This was not that long ago. Contrary to my children’s thoughts there was electricity and dinosaurs had stopped roaming the … (0 comments)
