๐Ÿก More buyers may qualify than ever before!

VantageScoreยฎ 4.0 can generate a credit score with as little as one month of credit history and may consider alternative payment data like rent, utilities, and phone bills. It also looks at credit trends over time, creating a more complete picture of a borrowerโ€™s financial habits.

For many homebuyers (especially first-time buyers or those with limited credit history) this could mean new opportunities to qualify for a mortgage and achieve homeownership.

This is normal, right?

You find the perfect house online.
You schedule a showing.
You fall in love.

Then you start looking for a mortgage.

The problem?

โŒ You might find out the house costs more than you can afford.

โŒ You could miss out on loan programs or down payment assistance that could save you thousands.

โŒ You may not know what monthly payment actually fits your budget.

โŒ And while you're figuring all that out, another buyer who's already pre-approved may submit an offer first.

Getting pre-approved before you start house hunting doesn't mean you're committing to buy a home.

It simply helps you with:
โœ”๏ธ How much home can you afford
โœ”๏ธ Have more people take you seriously
โœ”๏ธ How much money can you save

The best first step in buying a home isn't finding a house.

It's finding out what you can buy before you start shopping.
Reach out to me or send me a message if you want to start looking around or have any questions.

Rates moved higher last week, with the biggest moves coming on Friday in reaction to much stronger than expected jobs data. The jobs report smashed expectations, with more than twice as many new jobs created as forecast. The strong labor market makes it even more likely that the Fed will raise its policy rate this year to fight inflation.

After last week's early headlines that Iran could be pulling out of peace talks proved to be inaccurate, there was still no meaningful progress toward a deal. Rates will continue to move alongside oil prices, as well as be affected this week by both consumer and wholesale inflation reports and continued headlines coming out of the Middle East.

โ€ข The Middle East: Despite talks dragging on, mortgage rates are still likely to move along with headlines about any progress toward a deal that could reopen the Strait of Hormuz to commercial shipping traffic.
โ€ข Economic data: Inflation is bad for rates, pushing them higher, and we could see rates react to both consumer and wholesale inflation data this week if they show inflation continues to increase.

Making extra payments on your mortgage can potentially save you a LOT of money.

Hereโ€™s why:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Every extra dollar you pay toward the ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—น lowers the amount you owe.

That means:
โœ… Less interest paid over time
โœ… More equity in your home
โœ… A faster path to owning your house outright

A few things to remember:

๐Ÿ‘‰ The sooner you make extra payments, the more they help.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Small extra payments add up. You donโ€™t have to wait until you can make a huge one.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Ask your loan servicer to apply extra money to ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—น๐˜†.

Even one extra payment each year can make a big difference over the life of your loan.

Rates fell for a second straight week, although the improvement was modest as peace talks with Iran continued to drag on without a final resolution. All other factors continued to take a back seat, with mortgage rates reacting almost solely to events in the Middle East.

Rates will continue reacting to headlines about a potential peace deal with Iran, and that news was already volatile this morning. Unconfirmed reports that Iran may walk away from negotiations and fully block the Strait of Hormuz pushed mortgage rates higher to start the week. With markets closely tracking developments in the Middle East, rates will likely remain difficult to predict this week.

โ€ข The Middle East: Mortgage rates will continue to react to headlines about peace deal negotiations. When oil prices fall, rates tend to improve. When oil prices rise, rates tend to move higher. Expect some day-to-day volatility, and even changes during the day, as markets respond to new developments.
โ€ข Economic data: Although this is a big week for labor market data, it is unlikely the data will have as much impact on mortgage rates as usual.

When youโ€™re self-employed...

The income you show on your taxes matters, not just what you make in real life.

Writing everything off can lower your tax billโ€ฆ
โ€ฆbut it can also limit your buying power when itโ€™s time to get a mortgage.

This is why planning before youโ€™re house hunting makes such a difference.
If youโ€™re self-employed and considering buying, I'd be happy to discuss what mortgage professionals actually look at. So you can plan for it.

Rates will continue to track oil prices and follow headlines about a deal with Iran that could reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Minor military skirmishes arenโ€™t likely to hurt rates as long as they donโ€™t derail negotiations, but if the ceasefire were to end, we would see rates jump.

โ€ข The Middle East: Peace talks continue with Iran, albeit slowly, as both sides push for concessions and compromises. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed to commercial traffic, and we are not likely to see mortgage rates move significantly lower from here until it reopens, though we could see modest improvement from recent highs.
โ€ข The Fed: Markets expect the Fed will be unable to cut rates this year and may even have to hike, as inflation continues to worry investors and traders.
โ€ข Economic data: It's a holiday-shortened week, but Thursday brings a few reports, including some inflation data. However, they shouldnโ€™t cause any big moves in rates.
