•Prepare to pounce on great rates. Analysts agree: Current rates are very attractive, and they aren’t going to rise anytime soon, thanks to government efforts.

•Rates fluctuate daily based on any number of market factors. Whether you’re considering buying or refinancing, pull together your financial paperwork, including federal tax returns, investment records and proof of income, so you can jump on good rates immediately.

•Polish your credit score. The almighty credit score is king these days, and, given some of the early details leaked about the Treasury’s plan, it will continue to be. Most likely, the more favorable mortgage rates will be reserved solely for those with the very best credit scores – at least a 740 on the 300 to 850-point scale. In late November the Federal Reserve announced a plan aimed at lowering interest rates to a potential 4.5% on fixed-rate mortgages. That’s all the more reason to build up your credit and avoid mistakes that could trash your score, like late payments and big balances.

•Refinance based on rates, not rumors. Early indications are that the Treasurys low-rate plan would apply only to new mortgages. So if youre looking to refinance, there’s no sense in hesitating. Bear in mind, however, that lending standards are still tight. You’ll need a great credit score and at least 5% equity in your home to qualify in the Research Triangle Real Estate Market.

•House hunters should stay the course. Don’t wait to buy a home based on a government plan that may not materialize. Even if the plan does go through, those low 4.5% mortgages will be extended only to borrowers who fit the plan criteria and won’t be offered to borrowers across the board. If you were already thinking about buying, there’s no reason to put off your search.

Don’t let fear make you miss this historic opportunity for low home mortgage interest rates, affordable low home prices, and the NEW $8,000 Tax Credit for First Time Home Buyers for Raleigh, Cary Apex and Wake Forest Triangle MLS Homes for Sale!

Truth about real estate foreclosures

December 7, 2009 - 2:37 am 13 Comments

See how the banks are manipulating the foreclosure market. You can use this information to buy foreclosures by timing your purchase.
December 8, 2008
Look at my video ‘ Real Estate market bottom’ to see how to tell the bottom.
See also video “make more money on sale of house ”
It is now apparent that there is a detailed plan to take money away from investors by conning them to buy foreclosures, and have the entire market deflate. Go to
http://www.financialsense.com/editorials/reality/2005/0403.html
You will notice this is a 2005 article.

May 23, 2008. The existing home sales came out today with an average loss of $1500 per month for the median US Home price over the last year. Most people have no conception how this is impacting their lives. If you had $200,000 in equity last year, you just lost 7% of your equity. In California, it was probably more. If you had sold your house last year and moved into a rental, you would have zero cost for living in the rental. If you had moved into 2 specific real estate purchases, you could have increased your capital and retained your mortgage deduction. You would actually be further ahead.
Losses in home equity will accelerate for the next year. If you become underwater in your present equity, you could be stuck in your present property for many years or have to come up with substantial separation money to preserve your credit rating.
The foreclosure bailout proposed by the congress is just window dressing in order to forestall a panic. What is going to happen is that this will only delay the panic, not forestall it. If you read the fine print, the lender has to agree to provisions of the bill. How likely is that?
What you see happening in the market today is that 25% of the sales are due to sale of foreclosed homes. Because of the banks holding back inventory, there are at least 4 bids for every sale.This will change shortly.
The subprime loans that are supposed to reset this summer,means that the house are really going to be back on the market by June 2009. The logic goes like this. The notice of reset for August 2008 have already gone out. In August , the owner of the subprime loan is going to do his/her best to make the payments. He will get a 2 or 3 job in some cases. Maybe his wife will too. In any case, the owner uses up his savings and cannot make the payments. This takes 2 months, on average.
The owner realizes it is impossible to continue and finally stops making the payment. His savings are exhausted, and now he has to acquire money to be able to move.He needs the mortgage payment to restore his savings, so he can move. Minimum average move is going to cost $5000 or more.
The lender now starts the foreclosure process. Sometimes the lender takes more than 6 months to prosecute the foreclosure.
Then there is another month or 2 in which to prepare the property for sale.

So, let’s see how this all adds up. 2 + 6 + 2 = 10. 10 months from August 2008 is June 2009.
So the majority of the resets will not even hit the market until June 2009. And the average length of time to sell this property will be 11 months, if not longer. So the minimum time for the market to hit the bottom will be after May 2010.
The average price decline, here in California, will be more than $2000 per month. If you invest in property today, you will lose almost all of your equity.

What no says today, is that the property that has an equity line of credit will also reset to a higher interest rate once the property falls below 110% of the initial loan amount. This is a huge overhang to the market, and could make these loans now subject to default.Who knows where this will end?
Based on this scenario, what is the best way to make money in real estate today?
Sell any real estate that you have, even into today’s declining market. Then wait for the turn in the market to buy back, better than ever. That time is more than 2 years away.
July 27, 2008 update:
As I write this, the senate just passed the foreclosure help bill. The immediate effect is to raise the interest rates on homes. Why? Because the lenders will now have to calculate how they are going to get a reasonable return on their money that they lend. They now have to include the cost of taking a writedown on their loan if the buyer defaults. The net effect of higher rates means that the price of the house has to go down if the buyer cannot increase his payment. In Stockton Calif., 1 house in 25 is now in foreclosure.
