Mortgage Demand Down 86% Lenders DESPERATE! First Time Buyer Tips & Advice Mortgage Points Explained

Shaheedah, I've been a Realtor for a long time and I love the way you break this information down for prospective buyers. It shows that you CARE; and we realize that noone cares about how much you KNOW until they know how much you CARE. Knowledge is POWER...but only if you USE IT. You are doing an amazing job. Thank you!😊

Thank you so much, these means a lot coming from a fellow Realtor. I really appreciate it.

Lennar is currently offering to buy down 30 year fixed loans to 4.99%. I took the deal, hard to pass up 23k in free buy down money, on top of discounting the new build 60k and offering an additional 20k to closing costs. If they’re doing offers like this the market is probably heading downhill badly.

[@ShaheedahHill]

Yes, it makes a big difference who is paying for the buy down. Congrats

[@keanesoluade5096]

Did the same. Got 3.99% in August. Just closed. Thanks Shaheedah!

[@SaharaKnows]

NOTHING is free. Lenders will always look out for themselves.

[@SaharaKnows]

The first 7 years of mortgage you are mainly just paying interest.

[@keanesoluade5096]

@@SaharaKnows this is true but that applies to everyone with a mortgage. Might as well get the lowest interest rate as possible if you can. In my case the builder paid to buy the points down. I'm going to try and pay off as fast as possible...a 30 year over 15 years or maybe even 10 years

[@SEPTAMAN95]

I’m done with my house buying process and your videos helped a great deal. I still tune in just to learn more. Very informative. You are great at this.

[@CamMarz]

Mortgage Loan Officer here, you explained points/buydowns EXACTLY how I walk my clients through pricing. No one really knows how much farther home prices may fall, but we are still YEARS behind on supply, so prices will likely shoot up in the near future. Especially if the FED loosens monetary policy, rates will drop and demand will be crazy again. IF YOU ARE BUYING A HOME FOR THE FIRST TIME AND CAN AFFORD IT, NEGOTIATE TO HAVE THE SELLER PAY THE CLOSING COSTS. That way, you're in a home when prices go up and rates drop, so a refinance will benefit you even more.

[@CamMarz]

@@darylllanier2591 That's not going to happen, last spike in rates (the 80's) you saw the federal reserve relentlessly tighten monetary policy. The problem is the government puts too much influence on the central banks borrowing rates. Less government interference leads to a more stable economy and rate situation like we've seen for almost 10 years prior to Covid

Adjustable Arms is what got America in trouble back in '07. I got a fixed rate when I purchase my home in 02 but everyone paid the price for that mess. All the forclosures caused home values to tank and most people where upside down on their mortgage. I was underwater 50k and I did nothing wrong. Bought a house I could afford and paid on time, still got stuck in the mudd.

As a MLO, I love how you explained the points and factoring if it is worth the money to buy down! So many lenders will trick people with them not knowing this information.

[@ShaheedahHill]

Thank you so much.

[@daywzy]

Rate buy downs are only worth it if you intend to keep that loan term or don't sell for a long time. With these high interest rates, A lot of people are looking to refinance the moment the Fed pivots. That money used in the buy down, can be used for refinance closing costs again.

[@nikkibreezy6058]

​@@daywzy so true I'd rather take that money and put it towards the principal and have more equity in the home

hi sweetheart, I received an email from Navy Federal saying it's time to buy a house. according to MyFico mortgage scores for October18th are Equifax 773, TransUnion 751, and Experian 748. I'm grateful for these scores but I cannot buy a house with the apr the way it is now! If I get a $300,000 property for 30-year fixed, 20% down with the score 751 and the monthly payment would be $1617 apr 7.127%. I don't think so!

[@edwinrivadeneira7178]

With all due respect, and note that I am only commenting here because alot of people including Realtors and what is worse Mortgage Loan Originators have said that they love the way you explained the rate buy downs and that is exactly how they walk their own clients through the rate buy down explanation. Please note that you are using traditional or fixed rate buy down rationale in trying to explain the temporary 3-2-1 rate buy downs. Please note that a temporary rate buy downs are super easy to calculate, but also note that 1 point in rate buy down does not equate to thw 1/8 or 1/4 rate adjustment as you have explained here, again that is the case on traditional fixed or adjustable rate buy downs. Just to make sure people have the correct information, a 1 point rate adjustment on a rate buy down equals the difference on a P&I monthly payment from the lower rates (temp. buy downs) vs. the normal P&I payments from your current rate multiplied by the 12. Say you're supposed to get a 7% rate, you can buy down the rate to 6% by multiplying the savings in the P&I calculation x 12. So if the savings is $200.00 month, then the rate buy down will cost you $200x12=$2,400. If you wanted to do a 3-2-1 buy down, you will then be buying down two points for 24 months and 1 point for 12 months. So using a similar example, you will go from 7% to 5% (2 points buy down) on the first year and then the rate will adjust to 6% for the second year. On the third year, the rate will then adjust to the fix 7% for the remainder time you have this mortgage. As far as the cost, to buy down the rate from 7% to 5% on the first year, multiply the savings in P&I payment times 24 say that difference is $400/month. Then you have $400x24=$8,800 add to that the diference in payment of P&I between 7% and 6% for the second year(say $200) and multiply by 12. $200x12=2,400. Now add both yeara together or $9,600 + $2,400 = $ 12,000. So the total cost of the temporary buydown is $12,000. BASICALLY ALL YOU DOING IS PRE-PAYING THE INTEREST for the period you decide to do the buy down. One thing to always keep in mind is that the Seller or the Realtors are able to pay for this buydowns, you as the buyer/borrower cannot. Shaheedah makes some very good points on the break even point or future consideratios of affordability, but she also leaves out the fact that renting is also not your best option, furthermore, I disagree with the that lenders as getting desperate, everyone in the industry is affected by the market contraction. We as professional Mortgage Brokers simply are putting together and laying out options for our borrowers. At the end of the day when presented with your options in the correct way, you are asked to make the choice, and given the proper explanation, I am sure you will be making the smart choice for your own case. It is my personal opinion that rates will eventually adjust back down, I don't have a crystal ball to predict when, so I need to trust the industry experts and financial indicators to hekp me in making that statement, but I also don't agree with the fear tactics that your home can easily fall underwater and you will have negative equity. Even in the worse housing crisis of 2007 to 2010 the industry figure out a way to help borrowers by doing loan modifications and short sales. We learned from that and with the way we underwrite and scrutinize loans nowadays plus the continue need for housing to meet the market demand as millenials continue to enter the age of settling down and buying homes. Again It is my personal opinion that housing pricing will level off, but will not decline. It is very hard to imagine 20 to 25% appreciation as we had the last few years, but 3 to 5% is not far fetched at all. Ask yourself what other options you have, so I encourage you to continue to pursue your dream of Homeownership, keeping in mind that you are marrying the house, but only dating the rate. Wishing you all the best and many blessings. Edwin Rivadeneira, NMLS #375554.

@shaheedah hill is right, a lot of flashy pitches are happening within the industry to get people to buy, buying should be a benefit to that person and their family.

The main reason, taxes increase in our actual house !!! Around 40% up !!! That is why he thinks that is the best option to sell? What do you think???

[@ShaheedahHill]

The taxes are not going to change on the new house, they will be higher as well. Make sure you are getting any homestead exemptions you are qualified for to make sure you are paying less in tax. Get a loan estimate from a lender so he can compare what you pay now to what you will pay in a new house. Thanks for watching.

Great Vido Shaheedah! I have been teaching this to my clients for 30 years!!! One other thing to add, if the difference between the 30 year fixed and an ARM is realativly small, is an ARM even worth the risk? My goal on buydowns has always been, can you break even in 5 years or less (with exceptions for clients who know they will be there longer)? If the B/E is longer then 5 years, it may not be worth it.

Usually that mean it may be bank owned or corporate owned and they may "winterize" the house to not have frozen pipes, etc. as the seasons change.

There is no way I’d buy down points right now. If I couldn’t do conventional then I’d do a 5 year ARM and refinance once the rates come back down. When the market gets better in 3-5 years, if I’m unemployed and can’t refinance, I probably have bigger problems and might look at selling to cut my losses. If a builder is looking to buy down points for you, have the builder put that money back into the house instead with added insulation, better windows, a higher seer HVAC, tankless water heater, or other home improving energy savers. If you do sell in 3-5 years, those higher efficiency items can help you sell and justify your price.

Can you please explain how the taxes are determined on a home. Like how is it calculated. Ex. When I'm looking to purchase a home in the same zip code, one has less tax at 9k sq ft.

[@ShaheedahHill]

If varies by city/county/state, but this is typically how it works.....Each home has an assessed value and they are usually taxed at the same percentage, usually called a millage rate. There are also exemptions, senior exemptions, homestead exemptions, veteran exemptions, etc. that can have some homeowners paying less than others. Some areas have limits to how much taxes can increase from year to year. When you get pre-approved you can give you lender an address and they can estimate your property taxes or you can contact the loca tax office and they can help you estimate as well.

The points go by .5 or.25 bpts to 1pt. 1 pt = 1 %. .5pts = .5% so you can have 4.5 pts which is 4.5%. Points are just percentage. You can buy down your rate but it's added to your loan. The points you pay come out of your down payment and closing costs money.. Brokers trick you to buy points. It's costing You the consumer. So if you buy down you need more cash to close. SIMPLE

Thanks for this info

what bank asks for an 86% down payment?

[@poetz153]

Why aren’t rates dropping? People are mad they didn’t sell sooner and missed the action. I still have houses in my area way over where they should be.

[@jopaea]

Rates won’t drop. The feds have said they will consistently raise them to push house prices and inflation down

[@poetz153]

@@jopaea I need to correct my statement. The prices of homes are not dropping in my area. I should not have said rates.

[@ShaheedahHill]

The Fed is raising rates aggressively to get inflation under control. They will likely not come down soon. Thanks for watching

[@ShaheedahHill]

They will begin to come down as supply continues to increase. Supply is still low in many areas because sellers may not have to sell and will rent or take their home off the market if they can't get their price. Also many builders have just stopped building or slowed down significantly.

[@350BMW09]

@@poetz153 That’s because some sellers haven’t gotten the message yet and think it’s still a white hot sellers market like it was in 2020 and 2021. Just hold tight, though. The rate hikes will FORCE these sellers to drop their prices if they don’t want their home to sit on the market for 30+ days with no offers.

[@Utriedit215]

If you’re paying 86% what’s the point of getting a mortgage you might as well pay 100% People think it’s a flex to own a home but you don’t own a home unless there’s no mortgage if you’re paying a mortgage That’s the banks home you’re no different than a person leasing a home if you can’t pay for it out right don’t do it

[@jaahnnn]

Hell no lmao you clearly don't own a home if you think paying a mortgage and paying a lease is the same

[@yp8053]

Random but I love your teeth!!! Lol. Love the videos as well ❤️

[@ShaheedahHill]

😊 thank you

[@Jonesybabie]

Not much was explained about how lenders are desperate. But great explanation on points.

[@sellwithdestiny]

Lenders are desperate because buyers are dropping out of the housing market which means they are not working.

[@ShaheedahHill]

Exactly, thank you.

[@ShaheedahHill]

I changed the title of this video to make it clearer...mortgage applications are down 86%, so they have to think of creative ways to get you in a home. However, most lenders are only thinking about short-term affordability, you need to think long-term. Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it!

[@emmettmortgage]

You are conflating Borrower paid points and temporary rate buy downs. They are not the same thing. A 2/1 Buydown can be a great strategy and has a much different mechanism. I did an example on my channel.

[@ShaheedahHill]

2/1 buy downs are different. I was talking about paying to buy down your rate/paying discount points. My overall purpose is for first time buyers to think longer term, not just short term affordability. I will check out your video, thanks for sharing.

[@emmettmortgage]

@@ShaheedahHill Roger that.

[@kreyolappliance1469]

Thank you Shaheedah. They use big words(flip flap) to confuse us.

[@ShaheedahHill]

Yes, they do. Do what you makes the most sense for you financially

[@OmniCloud987]

I’m waiting for the house to be Low…it’s NOT worth it, housing was already too expensive before the rate hikes

[@amandasprague717]

I recommend you studying how to discharge mortgages because all deaths belong to the government not to the people and all mortgages are pre-paid
