federal home mortgage
by Center for American Progress

Question by Kyle: Federal Interest rate vs. Home Mortgage Rates?
So when the rate is cut how long does it take to reflect the cut for home mortgage rates? I’m thinking about buying a house and I just heard the federal interest rate is being cut to 1% (historic low). When will home mortgage rates reflect this cut? How low on average in % will they go (if its possible to know)?

Answer by Tomas
When they say the feds cut the rate they are not talking about home loan rates. They mean short term loans like cars loans, prescription ed credit cards and such. The mortgage loans are based off of the 30 year treasury bond.. which is why you don’t necessarily see those rates come down when the fed ‘cuts’ the rate.
hope this helps.

FHA doesn’t provide this special insurance for paying mortgage when you lose your job, or suffer an accident. This kind of Insurance must be purchased in advance of any misfortune, and is always the option of any homeowner.

Kenmure Castle – in all its glory!

It really is nay bonnie!

Even though the creating is not a quite sight, viagra sale it is at least intriguing to evaluate what there is to see right now, with the various engravings that have been made of it over the final two hundred years.

With out a doubt, the oldest surviving component of the castle is the part of the west wing (on the right) that is supported by buttresses. As will be observed, this component of the ground floor still includes vaulting, and can for that reason be assumed to be late 16th century.

We know that the tower on the appropriate, the north-west tower, was there as far back as 1790, simply because it appears in Francis Grose’ engraving – despite the fact that the small extension to the right of it is much more modern day.

In my opinion, the whole south wing was rebuilt in the late 19th century. One description of the castle states that the whole ground-floor was vaulted – which the south wing no longer is, so the entire issue must have been pulled down and rebuilt. This is further supported by the apparent differences amongst the south-west tower we see today and old views of it

As effectively as the modest extension to the appropriate, what was a window in 1890, in the ground-floor level of the stair-tower, has been converted to a door, and the old door in the south-wing, has been converted into a window!

So in summary, the Lords of Galloway had a castle here, nothing of which remains. The Gordons (more on them later) have to have rebuilt the castle but it was destroyed during the time of Mary Queen of Scots and destroyed once again for the duration of the time of Oliver Cromwell, leaving it in the semi-ruinous situation it was drawn in by Francis Grose in 1790. During the 19th century most of the castle was demolished and rebuilt, and during the 20th century, a handful of additional additions and alterations were produced, to convert it into a hotel.

I do not know why it now stands empty.

new federal home refinance program
by marsmet526

Question by Jake: What do you think the future of real estate is?
I’m really just looking for regular opinions: what will be the biggest challenge to the real estate industry (both sales and finance as well as builders) for the next few years?
Why?
Will the control of the Administrative branch of government by a liberal democrat help or hurt the potential of real estate professionals and builders to earn an easy, discount upper middle class living?
Will more families still continue to achieve the dream of individuial home ownership?.
What effect will the new refinance and modification programs enacted by the federal government have on real estate values and the home affordability/availability of credit for first time buyers?

Answer by Marc Gerard
The health of the real estate industry will likely remain weak for some time…probably at least another 5 years. Yes, dosage prices have dropped and mortgage rates are down, unhealthy but it is much more difficult to qualify for a loan now and the high rate of unemployment has drastically reduced the pool of available buyers. Until a significant number of people are back to work, I would expect more foreclosures and continued price declines. I don’t see a pretty end in site in the near future, unfortunately.
