Today is going to be another bad day for mortgage-backed securities which means mortgage rates are going to be higher again today with the potential for recipes for the worse through-out the day.

Delaware Mortgage Rates – Market Update – July 16, 2008

John Thomas July 16, 2008

Here are the daily thoughts on floating or locking your Delaware Mortgage Rate.

As always – consult your favorite mortgage professional who will be able to offer the best advice for YOUR unique situation.

Mortgage Bonds have moved lower this morning after the Core Price Index (CPI) came out worse than expected. This is bad news because this is a measure of inflation and this shows inflation is going to be a concern among bond investors and the Feds.

Technically Bonds are bouncing off the 50-day and 200-day moving average and are forming a bearish signal for bonds. In the short term, we will probably see Mortgage rates head higher for the rest of this week and possibly into next week. Keep Reading...

Delaware Mortgage Rates – Update July 15, 2008

John Thomas July 15, 2008

Here are the daily thoughts on floating or locking your Delaware Mortgage Rate.

As always – consult your favorite mortgage professional who will be able to offer the best advice for YOUR unique situation.

Mortgage Bonds moved up this morning to test resistance at the 50-day moving average. They have bounced down from this resistance as stocks recovered from earlier losses. The news today showed the PPI (Producer Price Index) coming in higher than expected but core PPI came in lower than expected. Retail sales came in lower than expected. Keep Reading...

Delaware Mortgage Rates – Market Update – July 14, 2008

John Thomas July 14, 2008

Here are the daily thoughts on floating or locking your Delaware Mortgage Rate.

As always – consult your favorite mortgage professional who will be able to offer the best advice for YOUR unique situation.

Bonds are trading up this morning on the news from the Feds that they have a backup plan for Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac.  This put renewed support for bond investors into mortgage-backed securities.  The Feds authorized both public companies to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank if need be. This would eliminate any fears that either company would have a credit crunch.

I would recommend floating your Delaware Mortgage Rate because Bonds are rebounding from the sell-off on Friday. But make sure you stay in contact with your Delaware Mortgage Professional so that they can let you know if you need to lock because bonds could bounce off some tough resistance at the 200-day moving average and the 50-day moving average.

John Thomas July 13, 2008

Christina Public School District in Delaware lowered the School Tax a second year in a row. The district approved a reduction in the warrant tax-lowering the school tax rate by 13.9 cents.

Residents with a home assessed at $100,000 will see an annual savings of approximately $139. When you combine these savings with the reduction from last year, you get a combined savings of $153 for a home assessed at $100,000.

Match – $0.060

Delaware FHA Loans will have Risk Based Pricing for MI

John Thomas July 13, 2008

FHA announced it will institute risk-based premiums for Mortgage Insurance. All Delaware FHA Loans require the borrower to pay an upfront mortgage insurance premium plus a monthly mortgage insurance premium. For the first time in history, credit scores will be used by FHA to determine your premiums. The changes will go into effect on July 14, 2008.

Let’s take a closer look at the ten primary changes to the Delaware FHA guidelines:

1. Borrowers with either no score or at least 500 may get an LTV >90%.
2. Borrowers with a score of less than 500 get a maximum LTV of 90%.
3. Borrowers without scores will require manual underwriting.
4. Upfront Mortgage Insurance Premiums will range from 1.25% to 2.25%, depending on the score.
5. The Monthly Mortgage Insurance will range from .50% to .55% depending on the score.
6. The premium is based on the borrower with the lowest score.
7. If one of the borrowers has no score, then the Non-Traditional credit grade is used.
8. Credit rescoring is allowed to improve a borrower’s credit grade.9. All FHA Secure refinances >95% LTV with delinquencies have a 2.25% UFMIP and .55% MMI.
10. These changes apply to cash-out, rate & term, and non-delinquent FHA Secure refinances. Here is the link to the mortgage letter explaining the changes from FHA http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/hudclips/letters/mortgagee/08-16ml.doc
