Lake Mary First Time Home Buyers… perk up. We all know what inflation is and the ugliness that can go with it. Most of us know that deflation is the opposite of inflation…. but don;t know much more than that.
In fact, business TV and newspapers have inflated deflation [sorry for the play on words… but I like doin’ that] as a hot topic this week and, since Monday, Google has tracked 13,000 mentions of it. Make this 13001.
Deflation is a recurring cycle in which the prices of goods and services fall. Suh-weet… falling prices that is so cool, right? Well, um, not really. Why? Human nature.
When prices are declining across many industries at the same time, IT CAN SHUT DOWN THE ECONOMY!
If you think about it…

Okay, so it is a rhetorical question and the answer is somewhat obvious, but how cool would that be if, everything got cheaper and you just got a raise!? I feel your pain. Well, on the first Friday of every month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases the ‘jobs report’… officially called the ‘Non-Farm Payrolls report.’ Well, the October’s data is trending with the rest of 2008. See the pretty graph? Don’t let the green fool you.

Huh, they may actually be better than the fixed products? Maybe they aren’t evil after all… just different. It is true that some of the wrong people got bad advice from some neophyte mortgage ‘professional’, but the good news is that those folks are back waiting tables. The interest rate against which adjustable-rate mortgages [ARMs] change is continuing to fall — This could very likely be the evidence we need indicating that the worldwide banking system is starting to stabilize. On any ARM, the initial “start rate” remains fixed for some period of time [typically 3 – 5 – 7 – or 10 years], and then adjusts according to some pre-determined agreement. It is more a hybrid than it is a pure “ARM”.

Wow, given the recent dramatic economic events where do I begin; the stock market, the mortgage market, the secondary mortgage market as represented by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?
Each of the aforementioned have so overwhelmingly impacted our economy let alone our housing market. Many I have conversed with this past week are angry and frustrated.

Okay, maybe the subject of this Orlando Mortgage Blog Post is a little extreme, but it does prove my point. Sensational sells. Unfortunately, truth doesn’t always carry the same punch if it is not. Despite turmoil on Wall Street, despite the drum beat of doom from the media…the real estate sector continues to deliver good news. Last month, led by a 22% surge from the West Region, new home sales went UP by 2.7% from August’s numbers. Okay, so the “West region” isn’t exactly Orlando Real Estate news, but the trend is important. Waiting for the bottom? You just might miss it if you don’t perk up and get pre-qualified now. [A “new home” is a newly-built residence, i.e. a brand-new house.] The surge in New Home Sales volume is aligned with the other good news we’ve seen from in the real estate market. Lets count down the good news for real estate that you HAVEN’T HEARD in the last two weeks….
