Please take note, USDA income limitations have been raised! (see attachment). Now for a 1-4 person family the max income level is $75,750. This is still a great ZERO DOWN product for your clients that are purchasing in eligible areas. Click here for eligible property map.
Also, New home sales show signs of revival. Despite a decline in March, the annual rate remains above what economists expect after an even stronger than originally reported February.

Market Update + FHA 580 FICO
We are still able to close FHA Loans down to a 580!
Mortgage bond prices rose last week helping mortgage interest rates improve. Stock weakness early in the week helped bonds improve. But yesterday, Wells Fargo released first quarter earning of an estimated 3 billion dollars, exceeding expectations, which was a very positive sign. The trade deficit came in at $25.97 billion, lower than expected and the lowest level since 1999. Weekly jobless claims were not as bad as expected as well.
So far the Fed has been able to keep mortgage interest rates relatively low while not destroying the functioning secondary market where investors buy and sell mortgage bonds. The potential negative is that the Fed has become the primary purchaser of these bonds. In the short term take advantage of these advantageous rates. There is uncertainty how things will play out once the Fed begins to unwind those positions in the futures.

Weekly rates + Market Update + Termination of Canadian Foreign National Program
1) We are still able to close FHA's down to a 580 Fico
2) Unfortunately, we were only given a 12 hour notice on 3/31 that the Canadian Foreign National Program has been terminated. Nova is looking for another outlet for these loans.
Mortgage bond prices fell last week applying upward pressure on mortgage interest rates. The bond market continued to come under pressure from significantly stronger stocks. The DOW shot towards the 8,000 mark despite data releases that showed continued economic weakness. Most worrisome were the many reports that indicated people continue to lose jobs. Consumers find it difficult to spend without a job or with the fear their job may be in peril. The weaker than expected consumer sentiment data provided evidence of that fear.
Inflation is typically the most important focus for the mortgage interest rate market. Inflation remains a concern as the Federal Government continues to print and spend money in an effort to spur the economy. Unfortunately, mortgage interest rates also continue to be pushed around by gyrating stocks and weak demand as performance uncertainty looms and the Fed has become the primary buyer of mortgage-backed securities. Most of the recent increases in interest rates have come following stronger stocks. The Fed continues to pump billions of dollars into the market to try to keep mortgage interest rates relatively low and steady. Up until this past week they have done a pretty good job of accomplishing that task. Remember, the Fed is not the only player in the game and selling pressure continues.
Analysts will monitor this next week’s consumer credit levels. There is much debate in the financial community about the future. Economists, market analysts, and traders all seem to have a different opinion about the future state of the economy and especially whether or not we have hit the bottom of the economic slide. One thing most market participants agree on is both the bond and stock markets are going to see additional volatility.
