Great News for Buyers!

Great news!!!  For home buyers!
 Contact Bill Yarnall at 727-209-7994.  Or check out my website at http://wyarnall.kwrealty.com/






The Federal Reserve says it expects to continue its $85-billion-a-month bond purchase program for the foreseeable future, delaying at least to September hard decisions on when to start tapering its stimulus efforts.
This means the uncertainty – at least until September - is over……good news for buyers….but be warned there should be urgency to get buyers financed now – if they wait until the Fall to buy a home they will for run the risk of much higher rates…..


Now may be the time to buy.  Do not hesitate to contact me and see how I can help you find the home of your dreams.  

From contract to close I am here for you!

This week's Interest Rates Pinellas Co/St. Pete Beach!

For more information on today's interest rates call Bill Yarnall 727-209-7994 or check out my website at http://wyarnall.kwrealty.com/.  




Last week was pretty quiet as far as things go in the mortgage industry but with Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) losing -49 basis points from the previous Friday’s close the two week Bond rally came to an end and mortgage rates moved slightly higher.
This small increase could have been much worse as we saw better than expected results from Durable Goods and Consumer Sentiment reports. One reason the rate increase wasn’t so bad is because of a report in the Wall Street Journal. They stated that the FED would continue to keep their interest rates low for quite some time and this had a calming effect on the market – but – the Fed Fund rates do not have an impact on your mortgage rates. Eventually they will have to start pulling back on Bond purchases which is what really drives the interest you pay.
BOTTOM LINE:
 
Expect much more volatility this week. There is a lot of economic data due to be released which will have a very strong effect on the MBS Market.
 
You must be prepared and let your buyers know this week could be a real roller coaster. The trend has been for interest rates to go up. Now would be a good time to talk to your mortgage professional (that would be me) about locking in on a rate and not potentially risking a hefty hike.
 
Meantime….back down on the Farm - there was some really great news in the Real Estate industry with Pending Home Sales climbing from this time last year by 10.9% (according to NAR). The market had expected a drop due to increased mortgage rates over the last term but the demand was greater than consumer fears and the housing market was able to absorb those increases. Based on the YTD activity and stable contract signings expected for the balance of the year existing home sales are projected to rise by more than 8% through the course of 2013. With inventory shortages continuing NAR is projecting median prices to rise by nearly 11% this year.

This Week In Intrest Rates!

What happened last week?

Mortgage backed securities (MBS) improved from last Friday's close which caused 30 year fixed rates to move lower. This marks the second straight week of over +100 BPS gains in the benchmark mortgage backed security and therefor, lower mortgage rates.

We focused on Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke who testified before the House and Senate last week as part of his semi-annual monetary policy report.
Traders are watching for signs of when the Federal Reserve will begin to reduce the amount of monthly Treasury and MBS bond purchases. Indeed the MBS rallied as traders speculated that Bernanke's most recent comments pointed to the Fed was going to be waiting longer to "taper" their monthly purchases. The prior speculation was that this tapering would begin in September and as a result had sent interest rates soaring on what was just a rumor.

Bernanke's commented that tapering will occur once the economic data (with particular focus on the labor market) shows enough of an improvement. Traders do not perceive that there is enough economic improvement yet for this to happen and so, project the timing of the “tapering” is shifting later on down the road. Of course, this sentiment could change next week.

MBS also received renewed interest from foreign investors as concerns mounted about Italy and Greece being able to meet their latest round of bailout requirements.
 

Sooooo what is on the agenda for this week?
 
The bond market will get a breather from Bernanke this week as he is not appearing in public.

The biggest reports of the week will be Initial Jobless Claims and Durable Goods Orders.
Last month, MBS sold off sharply (worse rates for you) in direct reaction to a very strong reading in Durable Goods.
So, a variance from market expectations can really move your pricing.

We do have three U.S. Treasury auctions this week:
07/23 - 2 year note
07/24 - 5 year note
07/25 - 7 year note - most important of the three

This week's MORTGAGE Rates Forecast

Mortgage Rates Currently Trending: NEUTRAL
This week there are a number of key economic releases but the major focus this week is Bernanke testifying in the House and Senate on the economy, employment and inflation.
Likely he will field a lot of questions from politicians about what the Fed intends to do with its QEs and more grilling on the state of the economy and unemployment that refuses to subside.
He goes before the House Financial Services Committee on Wednesday and then to the Senate’s Banking Committee on Thursday.  
 
At this moment markets continue to lean towards the Fed beginning to taper as soon as September but Bernanke is keeping markets on edge by changing his tune from one speech to another.
 
 
 
 
 
 
BOTTOM LINE: 
 
Right now mortgage rates are taking a breath, but don't be lulled to sleep.  Be sure to watch the live MBS (Mortgage Backed Securities) market with your Mortgage Loan
Originator to stay a step ahead of lender re-pricings and to cash in on market gains that help mortgage rates. 
 
Be prepared for movement at a moment's notice, and beware the volatility that is still rampant.
 
In plain English, this means 30 year Fixed Rate Mortgages are varying between 4.75 – 5.375% depending on loan type (conventional, FHA, VA, etc.), LTV, FICO & about 50 other things lenders won’t tell you about!
It also means that rates are more than likely going to be changing again soon if Bernanke tells the Senate that the Fed intends to lower their QE purchasing (or not)….right now rates have shot up on a rumor they might be easing up...I guess we will all know on Thursday
 
Special thank you to:
