WASHINGTON — Can you be charged interest on your mortgage even after you've fully paid it off? Can the meter keep running when you owe the bank nothing — your principal balance is zero? Surprise! Much to the chagrin of large numbers of home sellers and refinancers, the answer for years has been yes. If your loan was insured by the Federal Housing Administration and you paid it off before maturity, at closing you'd be expected to cough up a full month's interest, no matter what day of … (4 comments)

tony lewis: FHA Spot Approval coming back?
- 04/14/14 01:08 AM
Good news for Realtors, lenders and condominium unit owners who’ve been frustrated by FHA’s prohibition of “spot loans” in developments that haven’t obtained certification: The agency is now seriously exploring how to relax its ban and bring them back. Officials are mum on the details and timing, but they confirmed to me on Friday that reviving this key financing option is now under active study. The main reason: FHA is under growing political and trade group pressure — NAR and the Community Associations Institute especially — to do so.

tony lewis: New Home & Town Home Listing, Easter, Market Update, Selling & Buying
- 03/18/14 02:56 AM
Dear Clients, Friends & Fellow Realtors, The seasonal lull has created an increase of active listings throughout the Santa Clarita Valley. Our inventory has grown to 525, much higher than the lows of a year ago but well below the 1,600 that once existed. Homes are staying on the market longer than last year, considering that prices have risen about 15% this is quite understandable. Our weather has been incredibly beautiful so I am anticipating an increase in buyer activity every week for the next 8 months. We are at that time of year that home buyers should find a home before … (0 comments)
