How to Save $67,960 on Your Next Home Purchase

2011-08-17T09:34:00.001-07:00

How to Save $67,960 on Your Next Home Purchase

Standard & Poor's downgrade of the U.S. debt rating this month sparked speculation about what the effects would be on stock, bond and key interest rate markets. A lot of conversations centered around the prediction that interest rates for mortgages would increase dramatically, damaging an already delicate housing recovery.

So far, the opposite is true. We're talking down, down and down again. In the tumultuous days following the S&P downgrade, rates on 30-year fixed-rate mortgages fell to 4.32%, according to Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey.

Now truly is an opportune time to borrow money for real estateif your finances are in a solid, healthy state. Borrowers who lock in super low rates stand to save a substantial amount of money over the life of a mortgage.

Take this example: A borrower with a $450,000 30-year mortgage with a 4.3% interest rate would have a monthly payment of $2,227 and pay a total of $351,692 in interest. If their rate on their fixed-rate mortgage had been 5%, they'd pay $2,416 a month and $67,960 more in interest over the 30 years.

Substantial!

Could rates go even lower? Who knows? Seriously. We don't know. However, S&P also downgraded Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which means borrowing could get more expensive for the mortgage giants. That increase likely gets passed on to consumers.

Even if you refinanced last year at an average 5.5%, a rate drop to below 4.5% is worth a check-in on the math of refinancing. When rates really do start moving up, you don't want to look back and think "I wish I'd…"

Interest rates really do matter. So if you are on the fence or if you're an agent with buyers who are on the fence, do some math to see your/your client's total savings. It's as good a time as any to borrow money. Talk to your mortgage advisor today!

5 Questions to Ask Your Lender
Everyone knows you're supposed to be proactive and assertive when you take out a mortgage. You want to collect and evaluate all sorts of information before making the biggest deal of your life. But when the mortgage broker starts shooting giant documents at you, it's easy for your eyes to glaze over at the sight of so many zeroes, and tempting to start signing whatever it takes to get that house. Here are 5 questions every smart buyer (or refi-er) should add to the list of issues to cover with your mortgage professional.

This is important to our market, as it shows we are moving through the majority of our "back" inventory. The only way we can recover is when we have moved through our massive inventory of homes (which have been REO's and Short Sale's). The last few years

This is a must read. 45 lessons life taught me. Print it and post it to your computer!

2010-10-25T12:20:00.001-07:00

The following is written by Regina Brett. Regina is the author of God Never Blinks: 50 Lessons for Life’s Little Detours and a metro columnist at The Plain Dealer in Cleveland, Ohio.

To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written.

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.   
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.   
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.   
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.   
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.   
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.   
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.   
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.   
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.   
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.   
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.   
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.   
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry - God never blinks. 16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.   
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.   
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.   
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer. 21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, and wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.   
22. Over prepare, and then go with the flow.   
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.   
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.   
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.   
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'  
27. Always choose life.   
28. Forgive everyone, everything.   
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.   
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.   
31. However good or bad a situation is - it will change.   
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.   
33. Believe in miracles.   
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.   
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.   
36. Growing old beats the alternative - dying young.   
37. Your children get only one childhood.   
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.   
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.   
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we’d grab ours back.   
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.   
42. The best is yet to come…
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.   
44. Yield.   
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.

Very good article. For those who've asked me know that I never bought into the "shadow inventory" claims. This article addresses that topic and it is consistent with the viewpoint I've had over the last 18 months. http://www.azcentral.com/business/realest

Kudos on Closings!

A good sign to point towards recovery. http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/news/2011/10/11/phoenix-foreclosure-rate-down-from-a.html?ed=2011-10-11&s=article_du&ana=e_du_pub

I agree with this article and its a decent read. I tend to describe it as 2 markets - Distressed (REO's and Short Sales) vs. Traditional Sales. http://www.azcentral.com/business/realestate/articles/2011/08/28/20110828az-real-estate-market-confusion.html

It's definitely getting easier to get a short sale done. If you are still thinking about it you are not alone! http://www.azcentral.com/business/realestate/articles/2011/08/29/20110829Number-of-short-sales-on-the-rise.html

If you have not seen this article it is leading edge in solar and energy efficiency. As a consumer and real estate professional, it is exciting to see this as an offering to the buyer. It is for real now! http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/news/2011/04/21

BofA is doing the right thing. I hope they take action soon! http://www.azcentral.com/business/realestate/articles/2011/03/02/20110302bank-of-america-arizona-home-loans.html

This is seriously appalling, this program has helped 1 mortgage borrower. Does anyone wonder why foreclosures continue? http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/morning_call/2011/03/bofa-to-be-part-of-mortgage-principal.html?s=newsletter&ed=2011-03-02&ana=e_phx

Another interesting article on the dilemna of "Strategic Foreclosure". http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/03/learning-to-walk-underwater-mortgages_n_818315.html

Wow, good news in the Phoenix market for job growth! This is extremely important to continue for Phx to start to see a recovery. http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/news/2011/02/02/62-major-markets-add-jobs-phoenix.html?ed=2011-02-02&s=article_du&ana=e_du_

I thought this may be helpful to some folks. BofA and Chase are holding local events to help distressed homeowners in PHX. http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/news/2011/02/01/bofa-chase-to-hold-distressed.html?ed=2011-02-01&s=article_du&ana=e_du_pub
