Hello Everyone,

Please check out my Blog post "This Week's Loan Rates". As you can see from the rate sheet's we've had another week on the down side. Look at the 5/1 conforming arm, down a whopping 1.25% in rate in just a week! We're heading back in the right direction!

Did you hear about the new plan for the federal government to step in and
help the homeowners who are "under water" and refinance them into an FHA
loan. This is just another step to help homeowners and the real estate
market weather this storm.

This week's rates will be driven by the Non Farm Payrolls on Friday with a
few ups and downs as the market reacts to news from the financial industry
and from Washington on proposed regulatory changes and new "inventive" ways
to help homeowners. Stay tuned for any updates during the week.

Remember there are great tax savings with homeownership.
As we continue to head into such an incredible time for First Time Home
Buyers to get into the market it is my job to make sure you know how much
you'll benefit from owning a home.

I look forward to hearing from you soon and as always if there is anything I
can ever do to help you please do not hesitate to call me! If you'd like a customized Rent vs. Own worksheet to show you the benefits and cost analysis please contact me today!

Warmest Regards,

Ashlie DuCros
