"As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about the entire process. Step by step, Joe made it easy and fun. His expertise in the Columbus real estate market is a tremendous asset. He is highly recommended!" - Nicolette Horan
"I wanted to say thank you again, so much, for all your hard work. I know that you really put a lot of time into this transaction and I really, really appreciate it. I'm so happy I got the house and it all worked out and I just wanted to say thanks again, you did a great job and i really appreciate it. I will put that on the survey when they send it to me.
If there is ever anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to give me a call. I will refer every single person I know to you. I'm going to go get my dog and we're going to sit on the floor of our new house and have a glass of champaign. Thanks a lot Joe" -- Michael Mamp
Lock ‘em if you got em? Interest Rates Look Good Today
September 5th, 2008 categories: Mortgage/Finance
Over the last two days, falling crude oil prices, bad economic news and a bond market that has been favoring buyers combined to make today’s rate somewhere around 6.125%* I’m no economist, but think it’s fair to say that A sagging economy, absent inflation, means mortgage rates go down.
Some lenders allow you the ability to lock-in your rate. There may be a charge for that or there may not. Usually they’ll guarantee your rate will not be above X% and it may well be lower. Talk to your lender to see if locking your rate is an option and what it might mean to your personal financial situation.
If you’re ready to buy in the next month to six weeks, it could save you some money in the long run. Call me and we’ll go find the house to go with that rate– toll free 1–866–258–5899.
