We are buying a house and are looking for 1M mortgage.
I’ve been quoted for 30Yr fixed: 1st 729k @4.5% and 2nd @4.25 with 20% down
or 10/1 ARM 1st @4.0% and [email protected]% with 25% down
Are these good rates? given the expected rate increase (but when?) is it still better to get ARM?
thanks

CW said a guard who was discharged in 7 / 2008. The foreclosed home was not an FHA loan from the government or other guaranteed because it was a multi-family property and were not available as such. My credit card is currently just over 620 and rising. I am looking to buy something around 100 billion over 20 to 30 percent down. They told me that in about two years from release date and / or foreclosure of 7 / 2008, but others told me 3 years? What is truth?

I have a 3 bedroom/2 bath home for sale in the Renton,Wash. area. Last year( 2010) , it was appraised at 235,000. I am currently selling it at 204,500. I have held an open house, advertised on the internet , listed with an agent and we have gotten very little repsonse. Is this a bad time to sell? We need to get a bigger house as we have new family members and we need to sell this one first. Does anyone have any ideas? The house was completely redone and is a turn-key house. We added a master bath and another bedroom in 2010. Help as I am pulling my hair out with what to do..

Hi, I was wondering if I sell my home after I pay all the interest will I get a profit if the home selling price is more than what it was worth when i purchased the home or will the bank get the profit? Please advise, thank you.
I am curious to know what other’s have had to say about my current agent, however, I am unable to click on the reviews link next to the 5 stars. Is this something that is supposed to be visible? Thank

I understand the value of having an attorney review everything during a home sale… But, I am not entirely seeing the purpose at this point. I am buying a condo, and at this point in time I already have an executed contract, and the seller is using their own Title company and paying for the title insurance.
So if the title insurance is paid for and in place, and the contract is already executed, what could a lawyer do for me besides provide reassurance?
I am not sure that reassurance is worth the money.

Americans are reducing mortgage payments at a record clip, directing cash that once went for debt into consumer spending and savings.
The nation has slashed total mortgage debt from nearly $ 11 trillion at the mid-2008 peak to $ 10.3 trillion in the first three months of 2011, the BEA reports.
Low interest rates, defaults and refinancings have shaved more than $ 100 billion off the nation’s annual mortgage bill — an amount comparable to all unemployment benefits for one year or this year’s Social Security payroll tax cut.
Homeowners have trimmed interest payments alone by 11% — or $ 67 billion a year — from the peak in 2008, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The savings come equally from grabbing lower interest rates and reducing what’s owed by paying down principal or defaulting on loans.
"Households are managing their debt down by bringing cash to the table to qualify for super-low rates," Mortgage Bankers Association economist Michael Fratantoni says. That’s a change from the housing bubble when "cash-out" loans let borrowers leave mortgage signings with spending money, he says.
Economic effects of lower mortgage debt:
•Savings. For the first time since 1998, households are saving more than they’re spending on mortgage interest.
•Interest. Mortgage interest consumes 5.27% of the nation’s after-tax income, the lowest since 2004 and comparable to the 1980s and ’90s.
•Rates. The average interest rate on all mortgages — not just new ones — has fallen for 16 consecutive quarters to 5.96%, the lowest since the government started keeping track in 1977. The tumbling rate reflects borrowers restructuring loans to become better credit risks and shortening 30-year mortgages to 15-year loans.

The Student Loan Scam: The Most Oppressive Debt in U.S. History - and How We Can Fight Back
Alan Collinge never imagined he would become a student loan justice activist. He planned to land a solid job after college, repay his student loan debt, and then simply forget the loans ever existed. Like millions of Americans, however, in spite of working hard, Collinge fell behind on payments and entered a labyrinthine student loan nightmare.High school graduates can no longer put themselves through college for a few thousand dollars in loan debt. Today, the average undergraduate borro

Hi Everyone – question for you
We are in the process of Moving to California from Wisconsin
We weren’t able to sell our house there but were able to lease it for 2 years for a rate that
covers Mtg, Taxes and Prop Mgmt fees so I think we did very well.
We’re looking to buy here but my worry is that the lease will only be looked at as income and
the existing mortgage will be taken into consideration dramatically lowering our borrowing power
Can anyone shed some light on this?
thanks in Advance!

We are residents of Texas and the property in foreclosure is in Delaware. Second mortgage holder is threatening to file a 1099.
We been into the market from almost 6 months. We gave 3 offers and then withdrawn during contingency period due to many reasons( we found our agent didn’t tell while giving offers, e.g.. Offering too high, too much repair costs etc. Etc.) Now we are just fed up with our agent and now thinking to bypass our agent by calling directly seller’s agents. This way we will save some money as well. Can we do it? What are the best ways? What if agent will find it out later after we buy the property and can sue us or give us troubles in any way?

Lets say I am selling my home and my apartment is is good condition except needs paint job and few scatches on floor and wall.
My question is if the buyer wants to get out of contract can he get an inspector to say more problems with my place than it is? Just to get out of contract? Can he claim there is leaks when there isnt? If his inspector comes back with lies what can i do to enforce the contract?
Sorry I am so nervous I never sold a home before…
Thanks…
What are the implications of selling a home below the price you paid for it. How can you write that off on your taxes and does it make sense to do so.
It is an investment property with current renters in there.
Its not a principal family residence.
It was a family residence at some stage though
