Mortgage Market & Rates

Columbus Mortgage Rates: Yawn!

The market is holding against this morning. Have a good weekend!!!

Go out there and sell something today.

MORTGAGE TIP OF THE DAY:
I assume this goes without saying but I occasionally get this question asked….we cannot make a loan without some visible source of income. The no income loans are gone……but certainly not forgotten.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY:
To wait for someone else, or to expect someone else to make my life richer, or fuller, or more satisfying, puts me in a constant state of suspension.
Kathleen Tierney Andrus

TODAY’S FUN FACT:
The K in K-Mart stands for Kresge, from Sebastian S. Kresge who founded the store in Detroit in 1897.

LEGAL STUFF

• *APR – Annual Percentage Rate
• **ARM – Adjustable Rate Mortgage (rate may increase after consummation of the loan)
• ***Cash out refinance – Refinance means pulling out at least $2,000 or more or paying off a non-purchase second mortgage

All payments estimates above do not include amounts for property taxes and homeowner’s insurance premiums and your actual payment obligation will be greater.

Annual Percentage Rates and Payment Estimates quoted are based on a $100,000 loan amount except the 5/1 ARM, and Jumbo fixed loan amount is $418,000 and 20% down payment with the exception to the FHA and OHFA quotes which are based on a 3.5% down payment.

Qualifying Assumptions (unless otherwise noted): 45 day rate lock, $100K-$417K loan amount, credit scores 740+, Owner-occupied Purchase or rate/term refinance. Cash-out refinances (including paying off a non-purchase 2nd mortgage) could result in a slightly higher interest rate. The interest rates quoted are to serve as a guide only and may be different based on specific loan features. Please call for a specific quote.

We CANNOT lock in an interest rate on a loan with a voicemail or email. The customer MUST talk to the loan officer over the phone or in person before it can be confirmed. The market changes too frequently.
We recommend calling during business hours to make sure we have all the markets open and available.
