“In addition to the strong job gains, the employment disruptions caused by the pandemic also continue to show improvement,” Fratantoni noted. “Only 10% of workers reported teleworking due to the pandemic in March, down from 13% in February and less than half the level from its peak. As the federal government and others return to work in April, this number should drop sharply, which may well lead to further job changes in retail, professional services, and other sectors that are dependent on in-person work. This is good news for commercial real estate lenders and investors.”

He added that while mortgage rates have spiked more than half a percentage point over the past two weeks, reducing affordability for many potential first-time homebuyers, “the increase in wages will certainly somewhat help offset that hurdle. And the confidence that many potential homebuyers have in their financial situation also benefits from this historically strong job market.”

Your credit score is a huge factor when you buy a house. Mortgage lenders and banks use it when considering what loan you may qualify for — or whether you’ll qualify at all.

So what is a good enough credit score to buy a house?

It’s not so much that you need a certain score. It’s more important to know how your score will affect the rate, loan amount, and down payment you’ll be asked for. Contact me today to see how you qualify. https://bddy.me/3wNmYBm

Learning all the do's and don'ts of buying a house can be overwhelming. However, it doesn't have to be complicated. Renasant Mortgage is here to help you with seven credit don'ts before applying for a loan.(Part 2/2)
Seven Credit Don'ts
DON’T make any major purchases before your loan closes.
DON’T open any new lines of credit. The inquiry on your credit can ding
your score. Beware that signing up for a new gym or cell phone plan will
likely result in a credit inquiry.
DON’T try to consolidate your debts. Decreasing your available credit
can negatively affect your credit score.
DON’T close any lines of credit.
DON’T pay off any debts without consulting your lender.
DON’T make any large cash deposits into your bank account. This can
raise red flags with underwriting.
DON’T move large sums of money between accounts.

Black Knight data shows that lenders originated $1.2 trillion in cash-out refis in 2021, up 20% compared to the prior year, the highest volume since 2005. Cash-out refis went from 36% to more than 60% of all refis from the beginning of 2021 to the fourth quarter.
“We’ve been discussing this shift to an equity-centric market for some time, and our Optimal Blue rate lock data showed that cash-out activity continued to increase in January of this year as well,” Ben Graboske, data and analytics president at Black Knight, said in a statement.

March is National Credit Education Month. Follow along as we cover the do's and don'ts and how your credit score plays a role in the home buying process.
Credit is an indication of your financial trustworthiness. Having "good credit" means your history of payments, employment and salary make you a good candidate for a loan, and creditors – those who lend money or services – will be more willing to work with you. Below are the five areas that go into your credit score.
1. Payment history
2. The amount you owe
3. Length of your credit history
4. Mix of credit in use
5. New credit
