Some Friendly Competition...

 Sep 16, 2010 
Josh Cantwell
I love competition. Whether it’s in sports or business, and especially when it’s against my friends – I just love to compete. So when my good friend and team member, Jason Cupp, sent me a tweet about this weekend’s football game and a little contest, I couldn’t resist. Jason lives in Kansas City. I live […]

Home Appraisals Receiving Tighter Scrutiny

 Sep 15, 2010 
Josh Cantwell
The days of quick home appraisals seem to be coming to an end, even at times being problematic. Lenders are becoming more demanding, and often calling for second appraisals on a home before giving the green light. Where does this stem from? Of course, from the problematic home loans of the past that got us […]

Fannie Mae Selling Foreclosed Homes with Subprime Terms

Josh Cantwell
“The speed at which house prices fall over the next few months could depend less on mortgage rates and Americans' appetite for home buying than on how banks decide to manage the huge number of foreclosed homes they own or may take from delinquent borrowers in the near future.” Hey... I’ve been saying for a […]

 Sep 14, 2010 
Josh Cantwell

Last week, HUD awarded an additional $1 billion to state and county governments to help communities clean up the effects vacant homes.

Mortgage Rates Tip-Toe Higher, Housing Sales Remain Sluggish

 Sep 13, 2010 
Josh Cantwell
For the second time in the last 12 weeks, rates for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage have tip-toed higher, now sitting at 4.35%. While yes, this is an increase, it doesn’t necessarily signal an upturn in the overall housing situation. In fact, home sales remain sluggish, and it’s not because of mortgage rates. The historically […]
