Good Morning!

After the inaugeration of President Obama, I was hoping my email would be filled with good news about lower interest rates and a brighter economy but, I'm sad to say, the markets are still in trouble. It seems that interest rates for mortgage loans reached their low point a couple of weeks ago and have slowly inched higher. As you may have heard or read, Jobless claims for last week rose more than expected, housing starts were less than forecast, as were building permits, home prices continue to decline, and mortgage applications fell 9.8% last week. As for the markets, nothing in positive territory today---the equity markets are in retreat, bond prices are falling, driving rates higher, and mortgage prices are once again falling. In addition to this, Fannie Mae has once again revised its loan level price adjustments—for the worse. Sorry for the bleak news, but it will get better. I promise!

All the Best,

Happy Friday Morning!

The rates have remained about the same as in my last email.

Today's par rate on purchases. . . 30-yr fixed program. . . include the following:
-FHA with 30 day lock: 5%
-Conforming with 30 day lock: 4.875%

The good news this morning was that the jobs data was not much worse than expected. The bad news, however, is the U.S. economy shed 524,000 jobs in December and the unemployment rate spiked to 7.2%. The total amount of job losses for 2008 totaled 2.589 million, the most since 1945. The equity market is trading lower on this news while U.S. treasuries are seeing a slight rally. Mortgage bonds remain flat from the close on Thursday. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York reported yesterday that approximately $10 billion of Fannie, Freddie and Ginne securities were purchased for its account this week, as it wades into the market. The Fed has announced it will purchase as much as $500 billion of mortgage backed securities by June 2009, in an effort to lower mortgage interest rates and support housing prices. In reviewing the effect of the initial $10 billion purchase, the Fed may not have to spend as much as initially thought to keep rates low. Only time will tell.

Have a great weekend!

Why Land Banking ?

- Low Taxes

- No Utility or maintenance costs

- Often owners are willing to offer creative and affordable financing.

Land Banking has been a popular method of holding investment funds, used by everyone from Donald Trump, Howard Hughes and Bob Hope; who all bought up large areas of land in what are now highly lucrative areas including New York, Southern California and of course Las Vegas.

Buyers need to be aware of issues such as zoning restrictions and future development in the area of interest.

During a time of uncertain banking regulations, and bank stability, land banking is one way to stay grounded in today's economy.
