A CALL FOR ACTION ON R-1366

R-1366 is open for comment. Below is the definition of the Amendment from the Federal Reserve Board.

Proposed amendments that would revise Closed-end mortgage disclosures to highlight potentially risky features such as adjustable rates, prepayment penalties, and negative amortization and prevent mortgage loan originators from "steering" consumers to more expensive loans.

The amendment to Regulation Z has a lot great changes except for one small change that is the small print. The elimination of Yield Spread Premium. YSP is the premium paid to banks and broker for doing a loan. This will remove the ability to do a no closing cost loan and creative lending. This will handicap the lenders and eliminate competition. Increased fees to borrowers and again slow the housing market down. Below is a link to the Federal Reserve Board-Proposals for comments. Please voice your opinion!

Should Realtors increase there commission?

I believe that Realtors should move up their commission rates. Below are reasons why it should be moved up.

1) The increased amount of short sales, foreclosure and HUD homes.

2) Dealing with banks, asset management companies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

3) Lending becoming more and more difficult.

4) HVCC-need I say more.

All these variables have made it very difficult for Realtors to earn a good income. I am not a Realtor but I have seen many friends and colleges leave the industry. They are working hard for the commissions. They deserve a pay increase!

Big changes to FHA-January 1, 2010

1) The funding source of any FHA loan must have one million dollars in funds verified by FHA.

2) Brokers will no longer need to be individually certified by FHA to do FHA loans.

3) The streamline refinance as we know it today will no longer by available to borrowers.

Item number two concerns me. Opening the door to all brokers to do FHA does not sound like a good idea. I have been doing FHA and VA loans for a very long time. FHA and conventional mortgages are a world of difference and opening FHA to everyone scares me.

I found this article over the weekend and it’s rather disturbing. I know there was a lot of hype over BPA and water bottles recently but it’s also found in a lot more places than that and it turns out it’s much easier to get into your body than previously thought. If it’s that bad for you or babies it’s hard to say at this point but the article points out that heating up baby bottles made of BPA could lead to even more BPA being released which could be really bad for infants. I don’t want to try to scare anyone but it’s something that you should consider especially since it’s not limited to just plastic products (aluminum cans apparently as well)
