LowryTeam.com Mortgage Interest Rate Update

Mortgage Interest Rates In West Chester & Mason Ohio

Have mortgage interest rates hit their lows?  Will they continue to move higher lower?  These are good questions. The truth of the matter is nobody knows for sure.  We had seen an uptick in mortgage interest rates in West Chester & Mason Ohio earlier this year, only to see them sag back down again, as you can see on the graph. The interest rates are now hovering around in a range between 4.00% – 4.25% for a 30 year fixed rate mortage.

It has seemed like in West Chester and Mason Ohio that we had seen the lowest levels and that interest rates would likely continue to edge a little higher and then the economy shows continued weekness overall and the rates sag back down again.  The only certainty that exists right now is that these are historically low rates for home purchases.

    by Leave a Comment

    Search Homes For Sale In West Chester OhioIt’s Tuesday, so this must be the Tuesday Open House.

    What is Tuesday Open House?? Well, it’s clearly not an “open house”. Open Houses don’t sell homes… good internet marketing does… but it seemed like a good title for this weekly blog post.

    It is my way of throwing the doors open on the RealEstate-Ink.com blog and offering up a few quick articles and facts on real estate for the West Chester, Liberty Township, Beckett Ridge, Mason and Fairfield Township, Ohio areas. It is not intended to be all about homes for sale, but it will be about that some of the time…

    Preparing your home for sale

     

    Need Mulch? If you are preparing your home to get it on the market for sale soon,  don’t forget the curb appeal. As the old saying goes… you only get one chance to make a good first impression. So clean up the landscaping and get yourself some fresh mulch. I’m not sure that there is a better way to go than to get it from the boy scouts. They even deliver! You can just go directly to the boy scouts site right here. My mulch is being delivered in just a couple of weeks…anyone like to help??

    West Chester & Liberty Twp OH Real Estate: Home Buyers Have The Edge!

    by Leave a Comment

    Home Buyers Have The Edge!

    According to Lawrence Yun, chief economist from the National Association of Realtors, “Home buyers over the past year got a great deal and buyers for the balance of this year have an edge over sellers.  Affordability could reach a generational high in the second half of this year because of rock bottom interest rates, helped partly by the Fed’s very accommodative monetary policy.”

    Donald Trump says:  “I can’t guarantee it, but I’m pretty sure this is right now a great time to go out and buy a house. And if you do, in 10 years you’re going to look back and say, ‘You know, I‘m glad I listened to that interview with Donald Trump’.”

    And John Paulson says:  “If you don’t own a home, buy one. If you own one home, buy another one. And if you own two homes, buy a third and lend your relatives the money to buy one.” – John Paulson 9/27/2010

    Buying A Short Sale Property: A Mortgage Lender’s Perspective

    by Leave a Comment

    Today, we introduce guest blogger Dave Scully with Evolve Bank & Trust. Dave has over 20 years as a mortgage professional in the West Chester, Liberty Township, Mason and Greater Cincinnati marketplace.

    Buying A Short Sale Property by Dave Scully, Guest Blogger on RealEstate-Ink.com

    Buying A Short Sale ListingEvery buyer in the market wants to get the best deal. You may want to begin your search for a new home with properties that are on a “short sale”. First, let’s define what a short sale is. A short sale is when the sales price of the home is less than the amount the previous owners currently owe on their mortgage. In a short sale the borrowers are likely in the foreclosure process. Therefore the Bank must approve and sale and that is who your Realtor will be negotiating with.

    When buying a short sale you must be prepared for a longer negotiating process and closing process. As I said earlier you are dealing with the bank who must approve the sale of the property. The banks have so many short sales and foreclosures on their books that they do not react as quickly to an offer on the property. Also, the bank will allow you to do a whole house inspection, however they will require the sale of the home to be on an as is basis. I encourage every buyer to get a whole house inspection. However, on a short sale most banks will not make ANY repairs to the property.

    Once your loan is approved and you are cleared to close we can typically close you within a day. However, on a short sale the bank will want to see the closing statement and review it for up to 72 hours prior to close.

    They key to a successful and timely closing on a short sale is knowing what to expect and when to expect it. Personally I refer to short sales as “Long Sales” as they take a little bit longer to close due to the owner being the bank. I recommend you expect to close a short sale in 45 days instead of the 30 days that we can close a loan.

    West Chester & Liberty Township OH Real Estate: 7 Reasons Why Now Is A Great Time To Buy A Home!

    7 Reasons Why Now Is A Great Time To Buy A Home In West Chester, Beckett Ridge, Liberty Township and Mason!

    -It’s prime time to buy a home –

    Reason #1:  Homes have never been more affordable.  For individual home buyers there are only a few facts that really matter.  Can I afford this home? Is it a good investment? Does it meet my family’s needs?  So it’s a bit surprising that the most important statistic has gone largely unreported: homes have never been more affordable.

    Reason #2:  Mortgage rates are at rock bottom and won’t stay there forever. The national average for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage dropped to 4.36% in August 2010 – lower than it’s been in the past half century.  Interest rates for the same time last year averaged 5.19%, representing a difference of $90 in the monthly payment on a $200,000 home with a 10% down payment.

     

    Reason #3:  Prices are trending back up.  Every major price index points to a housing market that has hit bottom and is moving in a positive direction.  After 30 months of declining home values, home prices appear to be stabilizing.  In other words, staying on the fence and waiting for prices to drop further is over!

    Reason #4:  Seller’s are motivated!  When supply exceeds demand, buyers have the upper hand-and that’s where we are now!  The current supply of homes for sale currently exceeds the number of homes being put under contract by a large ratio.  At the same time, recent market upheaval has given rise to a surplus of foreclosed properties that banks are eager to sell, and an increasing number of listing agents are also negotiating “short sales” with banks to sell their clients properties at a price that’s less than what they owe on their mortgage.

    Reason #5:  Lenders are back in the game!  The subprime mortgage crisis brought underwriting standards back into the mortgage origination process.  And while the final quarter of 2009’s financial meltdown led to a sense that financing had dried up, mortgage funds are now available.  If you have a job and can afford the payment, chances are you’ll qualify for a mortgage.

    Reason #6:  Ownership costs are dropping below rental costs!  The recent downturn in the housing market resulted in a drop in rental rates, but rents are back on the rise while the cost of homeownership has dropped.

    Reason #7:  Home ownership remains at the core of the American Dream!  A recent Fannie Mae study reveals that the majority of Americans still aspire to own a home – and a for good reason.  Owning a home is critical to financial stability and wealth building.  A home serves as a forced savings account and provides a solid asset, as well as a place to live.
