Nabbing a bargain-basement mortgage before rates rise

Nabbing a bargain-basement mortgage before rates rise

RE/MAX Lakeside Lake Arrowhead Real Estate

 

Mortgage Rates

The Federal Reserve has been purchasing mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac since early last year.  The purchase program has helped maintain low interest rates for borrowers.  As planned, the Fed this week announced it will stop purchasing these securities at the end of this month.  Many analysts anticipate this will result in a slight rise in rates by year's end.

MAKING SENSE OF THE STORY FOR CONSUMERS

•·                         Interest rates have hovered at or near historic lows for much of the past 18 months, resulting in lower payments for many borrowers.  With the Fed discontinuing its purchase program, some analysts believe a rise in interest rates could range from 0.25 percent to as much as 1 percent by the end of 2010. •·                         The federal tax credit for home buyers also is scheduled to end April 30.  The tax credit combined with the expectation interest rates will increase has created a sense of urgency for many home buyers.  In fact, 23 percent of California home buyers purchased a home in 2009 due to the perception that interest rates will rise and they would be priced out of the market, according to C.A.R.'s 2009 Survey of California Home Buyers. •·                         Rising interest rates will have an effect on home buyers.  For example, a qualified couple with a combined pretax income of $100,000 per year and debt obligations (excluding mortgage) of $500 who receive a mortgage rate of 5 percent could qualify for a loan of up to $590,000, assuming a 20 percent down payment.  If the interest rate were to rise to 6 percent, as analysts at Barclays Capital predict, the same couple could only qualify for a mortgage of $540,000.

Rim of The World High School Drama Presents “Life With Father”

March 14th, 2010 | Author: Charlie & JoAnn Dickinson (RE/MAX Lakeside)

Rim of The World High School Drama Presents "Life With Father"

RE/MAX Lakeside Lake Arrowhead Real Estate

              Life With Father                                                       The local Lake Arrowhead Area High School will turn out seven performances of the classic Broadway comedy "Life With Father" This weekend at The Rim of The World Performing Arts Center.             The Production is about a family, set in the 1950s, where the father, Clarence Day Sr., is a Wall Street banker who thinks the household and its finances should be run his way. However, his wife and family (including the maids) do not agree with Clarence's views. This creates amusing situations and escapades, many of which have been copied and rewritten into television sitcoms from I Love Lucy to today's shows.             Rim Drama in collaboration with Lake Arrowhead Repertory Theatre has successfully met all the challenges of creating unique performances out of classic Broadway hits. The direction Rim Drama is heading in is one of exciting new adventures and many amazing shows to come!             The shows, which began on Wednesday, March 10, will continue at 7 p.m. nightly through Sunday, March 14, with matinees at 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $10 for general admission, with a reduced price of $8 for students, seniors and children. For more information on Rim Drama or the production of "Life with Father",
