Buying a home in Idaho as a veteran is an exciting milestone, especially with the benefits of a VA loan. One of the significant advantages of VA loans is the potential to ask the seller to cover your closing costs, a tactic that can save you thousands of dollars upfront. But like any financial decision, there are pros and cons to consider before going this route.

Numbers are out for May for Ada County, Boise, Meridain, and can I say WOW. Another killer report, with home prices up AGAIN. But homes sold were down, not a negative sign, but a sign of high prices. But June's numbers should be better as Interest Rates have SUNK to 18 month lows, which should spike home purchases!

3rd week in a row that mortgage rates have increased. With economic news all pretty good, and some inflation news in the headlines, mortgage rates have been worsening. Still at 1 year lows, but off our lowest level on March 27th.

Mortgage rates popped up a little last week, as we say a little pull back and 4+ weeks of improvement. Most of the concern was the unemployment number, which came out Friday and was a GREAT number and tame in wage inflation. Rates are still at some of their best levels in about a year, and there is still room to improve further.

Mortgage rates worsen towards the end of the week, and the trend is continuing today with the Stock Market rallying. But rates will bounce for the next few days in anticipation of Friday's Job Numbers. We are in locking mode, taking advantage of good rate gains and not gambling into the Jobs data on Friday.

Last week was a spectacular week for mortgage rates. As the Federal Reserve indicated that they will NOT raise rates in 2019 and may only raise rates 1x in 2020. Further concern about a recession is keep rates lower. Economic news is pointing towards a slow down, and past Fed Chairman came out today and actually indicated that the Fed may have to lower rates again. RATE ARE GREAT!

Mortgage Rate jumped last week, as the US and China are releasing positive responses to the Trade Dispute. Although we have quite a bit of economic news this week, with Unemployment on Friday being the biggest, I think China and Trade are going to be the major influence on Mortgage Rates this week.

Mortgage rates improved, again, last week, as concerns about China & Trade weighted on the markets. We also have Shut Down talks influencing markets. If we get a resolution, then stocks will rally and bonds will sell off, thus raising interest rates. But on the flip, a shutdown will more than likely improve rates. It will be all about the TWEETS!
