Loan Modification

There are attorney groups available in this market that are doing very good work in loan modification. This may be the best solution for those who want to refinance but cannot due to low FICO scores or reduced equity in their homes. We have seen results such as 7% fixed rate 30 year loan modified to 4.0% or lower for the life of the loan! Some results are better, some are not as great, but a good percentage reduce rates and payments to make the borrower have an easier payment. Principle reductions are extremely rare. So if you want to review or improve your situation, let us know, we can send you the right way.

Home Buyer Seminar-Thur, Oct 16th

Topic: How to Buy In This Current Market

The current economic conditions create a lot of confusion for many people, especially those who have been thinking about buying a house, whether it's 1st-time homebuyers or someone needing to move up.
- “Should I buy now? Will the housing prices go down even more?”
- “Should I wait for mortgage rates to go down a bit?”
- “I see the current crisis as an opportunity, how do I get in as a 1st time home buyers now? Can I even qualify without much downpayment?”
- “I'm thinking about buying a bigger home, how can I buy before selling my existing house?”
- “What are some of the strategies that I can use to take advantage of the current economic situation?”

These are common questions that I get asked all the time. If you find yourself asking the same questions, then come and invest 2 hours of your time to get educated. The truth is that the answer to all these questions is "it depends". But you need to know "it depends on WHAT?"

At Opes Advisors, we help clients navigate through the home buying maze by integrating debt management strategies with overall long term financial planning. The real question you should yourself is "How does buying a house affect my short-term and long-term financial planning?”

Sue McAllister of San Jose Mercury News Speaks at Board of Realtors this Morning

In the Cupertino offices of the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors this morning, Sue McAllister, the real estate writer for the San Jose Mercury News spoke to about 75 local Realtors. Her delicate roll in the middle of the real estate game is tricky. As a reporter, she must provide a balanced view of what is going on in the real estate market. Obviously, there are groups, Realtors, renters, home owners, home buyers, lenders, politicians and more who want their "truth" told. What an eye of the storm to live in! What Sue is great at is reading comments on the on-line version of the Mercury News and the associated blog Square Feet. So, if you have any gripes or compliments - post away - I do.

WaMu Update

Yes, WaMu is still in the game AND they have a sense of humor

Cash Flow Condos in the Valley?

Is it possible? It sure had not been for a few decades.
Last weekend I took a buyer out to look at 2 bedroom condos - all bank owned REOs - in Alum Rock and Berryessa. Pricing was from $170,000-$200,000. Some were in decent locations, decent condition, very good rental property candidates. After running a simple cash flow scenario - break even was easily achievable with 20% down. This bottom tier of the first time home buyer market has been hardest hit. It will also be the tier that will rebound the best % up. Nice opportunity to make some good appreciation in a year or two.

Cypress Hotel Cupertino Fall Open House


Thursday, October 2, 2008 from 5:30-8:00pm, the Cypress Hotel in Cupertino will host a Fall Bridal Open House. Slated are booths and tables of local vendors. My good friend Tiffany Chiang will be promoting her stunning make-up services. Web site is www.beautyexperttiffany.com - for some reason my link is not working well today!
This hotel is a great place to stay adjacent to Symantec and down the street from the Apple Computer campus. The hotel is one of the Kimpton Group hotels - all of which are phenomenal.
Well worth visiting this Thursday if you are planning a wedding anytime soon. I hear the food tasting will be....hmmm...tasty.

Today's Biggest Losers:

Wachovia - down 82%

Fifth Third Bancorp - down 43%
Regions Financial Corp - down 41%
