President Obama - interest rates lower, please!
There was talk last year by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to lower interest rates to 4% - 4.5%, as a way to promote home buying once. I did not hear a thing and I think it is time that we have a fundamental obligation to do or something like that to have a reality.
With artificially low interest mortgage investors guaranteed by the government ahead of the market to buy depressed property. Banks shouldFor these properties from their books and then lost to good fundamentals, which most institutions over the past ten years.
Here are the highlights of my plan, as the new real estate advisor to President Obama (that would be nice) ...
loans to households for the whole country is equal to $ 750,000 at a rate of 4% Jumbo loans national single family $ 3,000,000 at an interest rate of 4.25% Maximum Loan-to-value for non-ownerSet occupied 70% Maximum loan to value for property for sale many sets of 80% Minimum credit score of 680 For the first six months of this program as an incentive for people to buy the interest rate of 3.5% to 3.75% for conforming and jumbo. All loans are fully amortized for 30 years without any change in rates.
There are many reasons why it would work. Let's start with the fact that investors would come to purchase goods, such as rent, may be the beginningOwnership and a positive cash flow. The government in securing such loans would have a low risk, because it is between 20% and 30% of the equity. Wall Street would have to buy these investments because they are extremely safe and, while not paying a lot of other options available to investors today is not much better!
We must first talk about home buyer loans, which falls on the first home buyers have not come to us from this economicfunk. Although the American dream for a home buyer, the truth is not every home will be. We need a balance between owners and tenants to have a stable market. If we focus on bringing investors back into the market, we are on the road to economic recovery. The only way to attract investors is to restore, make it so attractive that they have no choice.
