Delaware Mortgage Rate Weekly Update for February 27 2012

John Thomas February 27, 2012 Tags: , , , ,

Delaware mortgage rate weekly update for the week of February 27, 2012, with John R. Thomas from Primary Residential Mortgage in Newark, Delaware. Advice on Floating or Locking your Delaware mortgage interest rate. Call 302-703-0727 for a free mortgage planning consultation or APPLY ONLINE.

Delaware mortgage rates improved at the end of last week breaking the trend from the previous week that saw interest rates rising.  The mortgage bond is now trending higher again which means mortgage rates are trending lower.  The pattern for the past couple of weeks has been like a roller coaster.  I recommend FLOATING your Delaware mortgage rate as we see if the trend of lower rates can hold. We need to watch the PCE report this week which is a measure of inflation, if this comes out hotter than expected we could see rates reverse and trend higher again. Keep Reading...

John Thomas February 25, 2012 Tags: , ,

HUD wants to lower allowable seller paid closing costs from 6% to 3% on ALL FHA loans. Only a 30-day window to comment so URGENT that you take action and make comments, see links below.

HUD/FHA Proposed to lower seller paid closing costs from 6% to 3%.

I highly encouraged everyone to take action IMMEDIATELY to submit your comments to the FHA regarding the reduction of the seller concessions to a maximum of 3% or $6,000 whichever is greater.

Please read the notice below to see HUD’s points regarding why they wish to reduce the maximum amount of seller concessions. Some good arguments are made by HUD to do so…However, in the grand scheme of things within the housing market today and the view that I see from the ground floor, now is NOT the time to move forward with this proposal.

Is Your Delaware Loan Officer Licensed?

How can you check to see if your Delaware loan officer is licensed to do business as a loan originator and even if they are licensed to do business in Delaware?  It is real easy to check, every loan originator is required to have a loan originator license number with the National Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS).  You can look up anybody at the following website:

www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org

You should always check to see if a loan officer is licensed and they should always be able to provide you with their NMLS number.  For example, my NMLS is 38783 so you can look me up by name, John Richard Thomas or NMLS number, 38783.  Once you find me, it will tell you what company I work for, Primary Residential Mortgage, Inc., what states I am currently licensed to do business in and if my licensed is active or expired.  See below for picture from NMLS consumer website: Keep Reading...
