JUST IN FED CUT .50%. Been little to no reaction in bonds or mortgage rates.

This is what mortgage rates have done in the last 5 days. I get asked on a regular basis "What are rates going to do?" Below is why I am very vague in my response. Anyone that tells you they exactly know what rates will do........

A huge congratulations to Cody and Sandra on securing a fantastic fixer-upper with the help of Renovation Financing!🎉

Cody and Sandra discovered this property over three months ago, recognizing its potential despite its need for significant work. They were undeterred by the property's condition and knew they were getting a great deal.🏠

After numerous inspections, several rounds of negotiations with the listing agent, sellers, and a lender who struggled to provide the right financing options, Cody and Sandra let their initial contract expire. They feared their dream of renovating this gem in a prime location might be over.😭

But then Cody saw a Facebook post from Jonathan Spurr at Inspired Life Mortgage, LLC and reached out for help. We assessed the property, did our research, and found a way to secure the financing needed for their renovation project.😀

I coordinated with Cody and Sandra’s agent to explain how we could make this transaction work. With the agent's help, I re-engaged the sellers and their agent. Despite a few bumps along the road, Alex and I worked diligently to find solutions and ensure the deal was finalized.👏👏👏

Thanks to everyone’s efforts, the buyers' agent, who had been involved for months, received their payment, the listing agent, who had held the listing for over a year, finally got paid, and the sellers were able to move on. Most importantly, Cody and Sandra now have a fantastic property in a prime location, ready to be transformed with the renovation financing provided by Inspired Life Mortgage, LLC.🎉🎉🎉

Please join me in celebrating Cody and Sandra on their new home and exciting renovation project!👏👏👏👏

Mortgage rates in 2024 have been as low as 6.64% and high as 7.06%. This is a very narrow range. As of this morning rates have gone up for the last two days. Do not get your rate information from the new media or so called social media experts.

Here's what mortgage rates have done in the last 48 hours: the news media, social media "experts," and many mortgage lenders are struggling to keep up. Check the bottom of the chart—it shows 6 green dots and 18 red dots, indicating how many times rates have changed today. That's 6 improvements and 18 worsened rates. While the overall trend shows mortgage rates are improving, we experienced a significant dip and then reversed that change within just 48 hours. For the most accurate mortgage rate information, avoid relying on news or social media and consult with a mortgage professional who can provide real-time updates, like I can.

Customer success story!

David and Annette retired 7 years ago with a paid off home, 2 IRA's with a decent amount of money in them and their Social Security benefits.

In the last year they had to:
😦Cut back on eating out with friends
😞Cancel travel plans
😭And supplement their income with credit cards to pay expenses

They worked hard for 25+ years and had great plans in retirement.

Recent inflation and rising costs left them with three choices:
🚫 Increase distributions from IRA and risk running out of money
❌Take on part time employment
🤮Use credit cards to cover expenses

Fortunately they were referred to Jonathan Spurr at Inspired Life Mortgage, LLC who had a 4th option.

😀A Reverse Mortgage

We accomplished the following with the reverse mortgage:
🙂Got them the cash they needed to pay off all bills
😀Set up an annual distribution from the equity in their home to supplement their current retirement income
😁They are back out to dinner with their friends
🛳 And they have future travel plans

🎉Congratulations David and Annette on getting back to enjoying your retirement.

We just closed on Avery's first home. 🏘

Avery recently graduated college, received an offer letter for her first job, and saved up her down payment. 👏👏👏

Unfortunately Avery was told this was not enough, she just did not have the work history or her first pay check.😭

Fortunately she found Inspired Life Mortgage, LLC and Jonathan Spurr. 😀

Using underwriting guidelines to our advantage and some help from her dad, Avery was able to close on her first home. 😃

The Journey of Dustin and His Family Buying a Home

When I first met Dustin, he was in his mid-20s, recently married, with a stepdaughter and his first child on the way. Living in his in-laws' home, he was eager to find a place of his own.

Dustin had no credit history, no credit score, and his wife had very little, which made securing a mortgage challenging.

They initially chose a lender with stringent requirements that didn't accept "Non-Traditional Credit" or applications with "No Credit Score."🙄

Following their loan officer's advice, they traded in their two paid-off cars for a new one to build credit history. 😱

A month later, they found out that their new car payment was too high, and they still didn’t have a sufficient credit score to qualify for a mortgage. 😡

Disheartened, Dustin was ready to give up and rent, which might have turned them into lifelong renters.😥

Fortunately, they found Jonathan Spurr at Inspired Life Mortgage, LLC. 🎉

We stepped in to help Dustin secure an FHA loan.

🗂We used:
📬nontraditional credit
⬆️compensating factors to expand their debt-to-income ratio
☎️convinced the underwriter that Dustin's overtime income was stable, providing additional income to qualify with
🏘 and closed their loan in just 25 days.

But Dustin's story didn't end there. 😀

Two years later, with a growing family and a new job with a promotion, Dustin's financial situation improved. 👏

Their home had appreciated by over $50,000. 💲

We approved them for a new home loan with a great rate on a 30-year mortgage, allowing them to move into their dream home with ample space for their family.😄😄😄

Today, four years after I met Dustin, he has over $100,000 in equity in his property. 😁😁😁

At Inspired Life Mortgage, we make homeownership a reality every day. 🏠

Be like Dustin and don't take "NO" for an answer.🚫

Join us in congratulating Dustin and his family on their success!🎉
