JUMBO RATES FALLING- GREAT NEWS!
Just a quick bulletin to inform you of some fabulous news.
The interest rates on the newly coined “Conforming Jumbo Loans” (from $417,001 to as high as $729,750) have plummeted, and are now a mere ΒΌ % higher than standard conforming loan rates. (By contrast last week they were nearly a full percentage point higher.) This adds great buying power for your clients in this price range!
Moreover, Freddie Mac has announced that they will be buying more Conforming Jumbo Loans, adding further liquidity to this market.
And in further good news, rates for standard jumbo loans (those above $729,750 in San Francisco- lower in lower median home price areas) have dropped also.
At the risk of being overly optimistic, it appears that the tide is beginning to shift. We’re starting to see buyers come out and buy in the hardest hit areas. This is causing lenders to believe that we may finally be at or near the bottom of the pricing cycle. Keep your fingers crossed! Next thing you know, they might even start easing up a bit on underwriting!
Please don’t hesitate to contact us for help approving loans for any of your buyers or clients who wish to refinance. We’re working our tails off to get approvals for and to lock in rates for clients at these incredible rates!
