Something that affected the Bond market this week is the monthly coupon rollover yesterday, which caused a slight slip in the price of bonds. We’ll be watching today to see if the trend continues or if Bonds can make a bit of a run. Next week there are a few reports to be released that could have a high impact on the Bond Market including Retail Sales and the Philadelphia Fed Index. I’ll be keeping my eyes and ears open!

Oh by the way, if you know of someone thinking of purchasing or refinancing a home, who would appreciate the kind of service I offer, I’d love to help them. As these people come to mind, just give me a call with their name and number. I will be happy to follow up and tend to their real estate financing needs



Follow up from our Sunday Conversation about Seller Financing. The FNMA (aka Fannie Mae) guideline, and pretty much the universal rule, states the minimum payment has to be an interest only payment at current market rates, or thereabouts. If there is a balloon payment, it can not be due in any less than 5 years. Some loan products don’t work with seller carrybacks, but many do. Thanks for the opportunity on Sunday! Have fun at the Family Reunion and we’ll chat when you get back!
