Home loan rates remain near historic lows, meaning now continues to be a great time to consider a home purchase or refinance

In March, we saw retail sales fall by 4 percent.  This was below expectations and was also the largest decline in nine months.  The rise in payroll taxes, which began in January, is likely a big part of the decline in spending. The report shows that we may see another economic slow-down this spring, like we have seen in the last couple of years.
Further evidence of this can be seen by the fact that the first read on Consumer Sentiment in April fell to 72.3, the lowest level since July. In addition, the National Federation of Independent Business reported that its business survey index fell to 89.5 from 90.8 in March, suggesting that the jobs market is declining. In addition, the survey found that business owners are growing more pessimistic on the economy. The survey has not shown an increase in five years.
 
In other important news, inflation at the wholesale level remains moderate as the Producer Price Index dropped to its lowest point in ten months. Also, the minutes from the Fed’s latest meeting were released and they noted that there has been a solid improvement in the labor markets, but this was before March's worse than expected Jobs Report was released.
 
What does all of this mean for home loan rates Weak economic news often causes investors to move their money out of stocks and into safer investments like bonds. This includes mortgage bonds, to which home loan rates are tied. Last week’s poor economic reports, combined with continued uncertainty in Europe and tame inflation news, benefitted bonds and home loan rates in the second half of the week.

Current Events
What is happening in todays marketplace.

In response to the “mortgage meltdown” in 2009, the Federal Government has tightened licensing requirements for all mortgage loan originators. By December 31, 2010, all loan officers will have passed a new National, as well as a new State Exam. These conditions are in addition to having a current license issued by the California Department of Real Estate and to the current continuing education requirement of 45 hours every four years. Real Estate Agents are exempt.

Mortgage Originators must further undergo a criminal background check through NMLS, submit electronic finger prints, allow access to their personal credit report, and have paid all association fees. Once a loan originator has completed all these tasks then he/she will have a “MLO” designation which is short for Mortgage Loan Originator. By 2011, Mortgage Bankers and Mortgage Brokers will be the most educated loan originators in the marketplace! Bank loan officers are not subject to these strict requirements, as they are regulated by different federal and state laws-some of which require no experience,no licensing  and no education. Banks have their own  criteria when hiring “loan professionals”, so borrowers be aware of the benefits of working with an MLO
