2019 UAM Financial Round Table

Recently November, we had the honor of attending the 18th Financial Round Table from United American Mortgage on Thursday November 14, 2019. Leigh McMahon and Ted Learakos opened up with a millitary term that could very easily be applied to the Real Estate Industry:

VUCA
V: Volatility
U: Uncertainty
C: Complications
A: Ambiguity

But the military is prepared for this and with United American Mortgage as one of our lending partners, so are we. Next to speak was Al Hensling, who was so kind to remind us that the only thing that is consistent in Real Estate is change-so they are changing with the times to offer on the spot technological advances to get answers to the consumer faster.

Next to speak was the loan agents to speak about some of the loans they are passionate about:
Jessica McClure: VA/FHA
Vance Long: Reverse Purchase
Marc Halliburton: Seller Buy Down
David Lara: Bank Statement Progam
German Santibanez: CALFHA
Steven Hensling: Construction of a Loan

Ending with the always awesome Steven Thomas of Reports on Housing. Sharing his thoughts for the 2020 Real Estate Market. Now, every loan is different-but assume you don't have traditional circumstances or loan-we have someone that can make sure you get a loan for that dream home!

Something that struck me deep was that they constantly said - know your why. At the end of the day, it is people, like us, selling homes to people like you-with the help of great people at United American Mortgage that don't see people as loans-but as the people they are. Have any questions about the event or loans? Feel free to contact us today!

Your First Home: Step 8-Protect Your Investment

Welcome to the world of home ownership, besides feeling like you signed your life away-how does it feel? You may find yourself feeling pride of ownership, because you now in fact own something. But with great power comes great responsibility-home maintenance. One of the best resources for you, even after the transaction, is going to be your real estate agent. Chances are, if you need a specific kind of vendor-they have one they trust and can refer you to. Home maintenance falls into two categories: Keep it clean and keep an eye on it. Review the maintenance needs for your home once you are settled in plan for regular service. If you notice something different, investigate it and fix it. A small problem not treated turns into a massively more expensive problem when ignored. Be sure to also read your home warranty, some of the repairs that come up may be covered. Also, have reserves set up for “Life Happens” situations. Finally, the most important part, Housewarming Party! Nothing w...

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Coronavirus

Greetings, Today I wanted to simply jot down some thoughts I had about this novel coronavirus (COVID-19) that the news cycle seems to love to talk about: - Will real estate values be affected? The answer is the same as every real estate question, it depends. I believe luxury will be impacted, I think more modest dwellings will not, and for a very simple reason, there is not more inventory and people have to live somewhere. - Is this our 1987 moment? In 1987 we had Black Monday, the biggest one day stock market drop in history, afterwards, real estate prices went up in a straight line for 18 months. Just like any good investor, when there is a shock to the system, you have to recalibrate, you either go to safety (or even relative safety, like houses versus paper ownership in a company), or you go to what has been undervalued. I suspect there is a good chance this is our 1987 moment for real estate. The 80's are dead, long live the 80's. - The drop in stock price...

Your First Home: Step 7-Close

We got through the home inspection, that was intense. What’s next? Why, title and appraisal of course! We are in the home stretch; you can do this. As the lender is finalizing the mortgage, they are doing a little bit more digging: appraisal to confirm the value, survey to confirm the boundaries, title to verify ownership, and title insurance. Appraisers will look at the home and comps to determine what they think the home is worth and relay this to you and the lender. The lender will only write a loan for the home’s appraised value, so if there is a difference between selling price and appraisal price-buyer and seller have to come together to cover the gap. Therefore, it is important to create a win-win situation, both parties have to work together at times. Survey is to determine where the homes boundaries are and are not. You would be surprised how many times a neighbor’s fence may be on your property due to boundaries of each property being forgotten over time and various homeo...
