About Laurel's West Laurel

Every day several times a day I get email from the West Laurellist serv. Throughout the day I get constant updates on things going in and around West Laurel.

I learn about parking issues on Riding Stable Road in front of the Rocky Gorge Animal Hospital. I am able to give feedback on the pros and cons of putting a sign up in front of our community. Sometimes I even see issues resolved on the list serv before they get out of hand.

I even get the opportunity to volunteer for various community activities. I get updates on current work being do on the playground equipment at the local park and Bond Mill Elementary School.

Many times, if I need to contact someone, I can find them on the West Laurel list serv.

This is a great example of technology bringing people closer together.

Should I Float? Should I Lock? - Daily Update for Wednesday, September 2, 2009

Here are the daily thoughts on interest rate floating or locking if you are asked by your clients.

As always - consult your favorite mortgage professional who will be able to offer the best advice for YOUR unique situation.

Yesterday morning the national index for manufacturers rose better than expected. While normally this could be looked as a good news, a data point does not a trend make. This morning the national payroll chain ADP reported a higher loss in jobs than was expected though lower than last month. The metal really meets the road on Friday when the government's report comes out.

Look for rates to improve slightly when rates are released today as the bond rose above a key resistance level this morning.

Technically speaking - the FNMA 4.5% 30 year bond is breaking above a major resistance level. The bond is high in th overbought status.

I am recommending to

LOCK your best mortgage rate.
