Albuquerque, NM: “March Residential Real Estate Sends Conflicting Signal:” "March was the single strongest month for home sales since June 2010." However, when set against March 2010, all activity fell: closing were down by 10%; pending sales down by 16%, new homes down by 14.5%." Median Price: March 2011, $162,000; February 2011, $171,750; March 2010, $175,000. These are the facts as reported in the Sunday April 24, 2011, Albuquerque Journal. Let’s face it, Inman News reported that the “the Housing figures reported by NAR for 2010 were overstated…” It identified the methodology an issue, so it should come as no surprise to us that the data is conflicting. Here is the link to my February 19, 2011 blog, nobody in Albuquerque paid attention: http://activerain.com/blogsview/2146953/wak...

I have a client, let's call her Heidi. Heidi is a very successful business owner who needed to refinance her home in order to pull out equity to use in her business expansion plan. Her accountant counseled her that utilitizing her home's equity would cost less in interest, and would be less of a hassle to obtain than an SBA loan.Let me show you how this scenario played out, and why if you want to work with a mortgage professional, my advice would be that you CHOOSE ME.Heidi's current loan is a 30 year fixed at 6.75%. She owes $188k on a $300k appraised value home. Heidi wants to pull out $35,000 of equity. Because rates are so good right now, we can get her 5.125% on a 30 year fixed. The lower rate and cash out result in a payment that is only $33 more than what she is currently paying ...
It was this past Wedesday morning, 9:26am. I officially lost my mind. In that moment in time, I saw my 30 year fixed rates dip down to 5% at par. The 15 year was somewhere near 4.5%. I frantically sent a blast email to all my Clients & Realtors. LOCK NOW! I typed at lightening fast speed, my french manicured nails click click clicking away on my computer keyboard. I ran scenarios, amortization schedules, loan comparisons like a whirling dervish. I advised all I spoke to that I had no idea how long the rates would hold, that given the feds reduced short term rates after a 300+ point loss in the DOW the day before, it was more than likely that the market would rebound, and rates would rise again.I hadn't seen mortgage rates this good since the Refi Boom of 2003 - when everyone & ...
