We'd be happy to help you!
We've all heard the stimulus packet has been signed and the loan limit for high cost areas (like the SF Bay Area) will go up, but the question is when? So I asked a mortgage broker friend of mine what's going to happen now. Her response was when three conditions are met...
I quipped back before she could finish:
Looking for Extra Money? The New Rates make Cents! Ask your lender about refinancing your mortgage now! * Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may tack on an extra 3/4 point to condo loans by March 2009.
It may be even be a good time to look into buying or trading up.
The buzz on loan rates for the 30 year fixed rate loan are as low as:
Loan amount up to $417,000 - 4.125%
$417,001 - $625,500 - 5.5%
$625,500 - $1.5 million - 6.625%
Where does your current loan fit? A good loan calculator will tell you what difference it makes to you on payments and rest assured it's makes a lot of cents, in some cases thousandfold!

The latest sales figures from the San Francisco Association of Realtors MLS are out from December!
DECEMBER 2008 - Median Price $708,800 - Single Family Homes. Median price declined, the number of sold properties has dropped in accordance with the season. There is still an appetite for buyer's of single family homes. Days On Market (DOM) increased, again typical for the season.
DECEMBER 2008 - Median Price $625,000 - Condo/TIC/Loft, median price declined along with the quantity of units sold. Typical for the season DOM increased.
San Francisco is filled with unique homes and differences apparent block by block. Computer algorithms are blind to the value difference. Now more than ever before the inviolable rule of location, location, location dominates as the real estate market changes. Local expertise and experience are what you need to guide you through these rocky times. Don't hesitate, email or call us now.
