These days, different lenders apply different underwriting standards. A home loan that's denied by one bank may be approved by another. Here's how to re-apply.
I made a lot of mortgage charts in 2011, covering rates, costs, and new programs. Here is a collection of the best of them.
Start that mortgage application! The government is financing its 2012 Payroll Tax Extension via new, mandatory mortgage fees. You'll get lower mortgage payments on your upcoming purchase or refinance by applying for your loan in 2011.
In October 2012, despite sparse home inventory, the number of properties sold increased still managed to increase 1.4% nationwide. If home prices really do change with Supply and Demand, 2012 should keep home sellers happy.
The foreclosure market is heating up and supplies are ample. There are great deals out there if you know where to look. Just make sure to have your mortgage loan in order.
As programs like HARP II and the FHA Streamline Refinance break down refinance barriers, big banks are raising minimum mortgage standards. Mortgage rates are the lowest in history right now but fewer applicants qualify.
Cash-in mortgages are in demand, but are they right for you? Check your alternatives first including FHA Streamline Refinance, HARP II, and the jumbo market.
The U.S. government revamped its HARP program. With charts and commentary, view an analysis of the first 500 would-be HARP participants. Data includes Median LTV, Median Interest Rate, and Average Loan-to-Value.
According to the Case-Shiller Indes, housing market has bounced off its bottom and recovery is already underway. But the Case-Shiller Index is flawed.
The government's revamped HARP program will create a surge in mortgage demand. Banks aren't equipped. Here's how you can beat the system and get lower rates.
Wall Street thinks the Fed extended its next meeting to make room for QE3 discussion. Economic stimulus may be coming. But what will it do to mortgage rates?
Owing to Aristotle, we know that low mortgage rates won't last forever. Here's what rate shoppers can learn from Greek philosophy.
Foreclosure filings nationwide fell 35 percent in July 2011, a statistic
that hints at the ongoing housing recovery. So, with less REO, where
will you find the best "deals"?
Congress debate extending the current debt ceiling limit vs making immediate spending cuts. While it debates, mortgage rates sink. Rates are at an all-time low.
