3.5% Interest Commercial Mortgage Video Release Delayed by Clopton Capital
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 20, 2012
Clopton Capital, a commercial mortgage provider based out of Chicago, IL has today had to delay their release of their first video to promote commercial mortgage rates of 3.5%. The reason for this lies in the technical difficulties and editorial issues with producing the short yet professionally produced video.
“The issue is merely trying to get the frames, music and other elements into the right order and to make them work together perfectly. What I have now is very stylish but it jumps the gun and nullifies the point I’m trying to make. The video outlines the unemployment and commercial credit issues in America and then presents Clopton Capital’s commercial mortgage refinancing program as part of the solution. It’s a powerful message but it would look far to contrived to release it as is,” said Eric Smith, the head of marketing for Clopton Capital.
The firm believes that utilizing high quality videos in conjunction with their daily press releases and other marketing efforts will give them an edge over the competitors and make them more attractive to contact and ultimately conduct business with. “This is merely an eloquent way of bringing attention to programs we maintain that local banks simply do not. The problem is banks have their own local marketing to bring customers in and we don’t. We have to be far more creative to bring attention to ourselves on a nationwide basis,” said Jake Clopton, the founder of Clopton Capital. The firm expects the video to be completed within a week and believes it will be successful in garnering them more attention.
Any institution interested in gaining access to their 3.5% commercial mortgage conduit is encouraged to contact the firm at 866.647.1650.
Any businesses or commercial real estate owners who are seeking business loans are urged to contact Clopton Capital at 866.647.1650 or via their website CloptonCapital.com.

7 tips for Elin Nordegren on Reducing Housing Costs Released by RoadFish.com
North Palm Beach, Florida (PRWEB) January 06, 2012
RoadFish.com released today it’s 7 tips to lower housing costs. It comes following Elin Nordegren’s action of leveling her newly purchased million home.
Over the past week, Elin Nordegren had her million Florida mansion leveled apparently to make room to build a new one. In early 2011, Elin reached a 0 million settlement agreement with Tiger Woods. Immediately after this she purchased a million home that she has now demolished.
According to EPA.gov, “Buildings in the United States contribute 38.9 percent of the nation’s total carbon dioxide emissions, including 20.8 percent from the residential sector and 18.0 percent from the commercial sector (2008).”
The editor of RoadFish.com is quoted as saying, “In today’s world, where there is often not quite enough to go around and people are having trouble paying their bills to tear down a home like this just for fun seems like it might be a bit irresponsible. I mean, there might have been something serious like termites or a roof leak that made this necessary, but I’m just sayin’.“
The 7 tips released today at RoadFish.com include such things as buying when the market is low and selling when the market is high, living somewhere “ghetto”, but cool, refinancing your mortgage, renting your home, and couch surfing in addition to other practical tips.
According to Carl Heldmann, nationally acclaimed author and home builder, it costs approximately 0 per square foot for labor and materials alone to build a home anywhere in the United States. Assuming Elin Nordegren decides to rebuild her home at approximately the same size it was which was 9,000 square feet then the cost to rebuild her home will be at least 0,000 dollars. The editor or RoadFish.com estimates that since her tastes seem so refined, Elin’s home will come out in excess of million.
RoadFish.com has written its’ 7 tips for saving on housing costs as a tongue in cheek response to Elin leveling on her newly purchased million home.

30 Year Fixed Mortgage Rates Start 2012 By Tying Record Lows Announces ForTheBestRate.com

30 Year Fixed Mortgage Rates Start 2012 By Tying Record Lows Announces ForTheBestRate.com
Wilmington, NC (PRWEB) January 07, 2012
Mortgage rates remain at or near all time record lows according to mortgage rate research website, ForTheBestRate.com. Home loan pricing displayed by various banks, lenders, and brokers in the rate tables has been among the lowest in the site’s history. On Friday, January 6th, 2012 30 year fixed mortgage rates as low as 3.750% were posted (APR: 3.785%, Points: 0, Fees: 2, Lender: Everbank.) Pricing for 15 year fixed rate loans is near record setting lows as well, with advertised rates reaching 3.000% (APR: 3.061%, Points: 0, Fees: 2, Lender: Everbank.)
This pricing represents a small drop when compared to mortgage rates available during the last week of 2011. This decrease was also reported by Freddie Mac, a government sponsored enterprise and purchaser of residential mortgages on the secondary market, in their January 5th weekly rate survey. Data in the survey showed that the average 30 year fixed rate pricing fell to 3.91% (0.8 points) from an only slightly higher 3.95% (0.7 points.) 15 year fixed pricing saw a similar modest decline from 3.24% (0.8 points) the week ending December 29, 2011 to 3.23% (0.8 points) the following week.
Continued availability of mortgage rates below 4.00% for the 30 year fixed rate products is welcome news for homeowners interested in refinancing, but who held off during the holidays. “We tend to see things slow way down during December,” said Brian Mitchell, Sales Manager with Gateway Bank Mortgage, a North Carolina mortgage company. “People are busy with the holidays, taking some vacation time, and might not be closely watching the mortgage market or in a position to act. Now that we’re into the new year though, we’re talking to a lot of people who are evaluating their finances and want to look into how a refi could help improve things.”

15 Year Fixed Mortgage Rates Hit All Time Low Announces ForTheBestRate.com
Wilmington, NC (PRWEB) December 18, 2011
Mortgage rate research website, ForTheBestRate.com, reports that mortgage rates advertised on the site are at or below the lowest point in its history. On Friday, December 16th 15 year fixed mortgage rates were displayed on the rate tables as low as 3.000% (APR: 3.061%, Points: 0, Fees: 2, Lender: Everbank.) Pricing for 30 year fixed rate mortgages also dropped, with posted rates as low as 3.750% (APR: 3.785%, Points: 0, Fees: 2, Lender: Everbank.)
The record setting pricing was confirmed in the weekly rate survey published by Freddie Mac, a government sponsored enterprise and purchaser of residential mortgages on the secondary market. The Thursday, December 15th report revealed that the average mortgage rates across the US hit a new historic low point this week for 15 year fixed and 5 year ARM mortgage pricing.
According to Freddie Mac the average 15 year fixed mortgage averaged 3.21% (0.8 points), and the average 5 year adjustable pricing was 2.86% (0.6 points,) down from 3.99% (0.8 points) and 3.27% (0.6 points) respectively the previous week. The 30 year fixed rate averages were down as well, matching the record low 3.94% (0.8 points) set in October of this year.
“We’re seeing a lot of homeowners move to shorter 15 year fixed loans when refinancing, and this historic pricing will hopefully encourage more to follow suit,” said Shaun Hamman, VP of Residential Lending at American Financial Resources, a National mortgage lender. “When it’s affordable a switch to a 15 year home loan from a longer term can be a great wealth building move – the rate generally goes down, the interest savings are substantial, and you get to say goodbye to that mortgage debt a whole lot sooner,” he continued.

HSH.com Weekly Mortgage Rate Radar: Nearly Level Mortgage Rates Present Opportunity
Foster City, CA (PRWEB) December 07, 2011
Rates on the most popular types of mortgages moved in different directions but remained nearly flat, according to HSH.com’s Weekly Mortgage Rate Radar. The average rate for conforming 30-year fixed-rate mortgages fell by 5 basis points (0.05 percent) to 4.13 percent. Conforming 5/1 hybrid ARM rates increased by 3 basis points, closing the Wednesday-to-Tuesday wraparound weekly survey at an average of 3.03 percent.
“Mortgage rates remained fairly steady over the past week,” said Keith Gumbinger, vice president of HSH.com. “More effort is being made to address the fiscal crisis in Europe, and moderate economic growth seems more firmly in place domestically. Investors seem to be pleased with both trends, and the result was a calmer market for a change.”
Flat mortgage rates and calm market conditions are important, noted Gumbinger. “Busy holiday seasons leave folks little time to react to buying and refinancing opportunities. Mortgage rates on an even keel allows more time for borrowers to take action without fear of missing out.”
Average mortgage rates and points for conforming residential mortgages for the week ending December 6 were, according to HSH.com:
Conforming 30-year fixed-rate mortgage
Average rate: 4.13 percent
Average points: 0.26
Conforming 5/1 ARM
Average rate: 3.03 percent
Average points: 0.21
Average mortgage rates and points for conforming residential mortgages for the previous week ending November 29 were, according to HSH.com:
Conforming 30-year fixed-rate mortgage
Average rate: 4.18 percent
Average points: 0.29
Conforming 5/1-year ARM
Average rate: 3.00 percent
Average points: 0.27
Methodology
The Weekly Mortgage Rate Radar reports the average rates and points offered on conforming 30-year fixed-rate mortgages and conforming 5/1 ARMs. The weekly mortgage rate survey covers a large sample of mortgage lenders and is conducted over a Wednesday-to-Tuesday cycle, with data released every Wednesday. HSH.com’s survey helps consumers find the best rates on home loans in changing market conditions. Unlike mortgage rate surveys that report average rates only, the Weekly Mortgage Rate Radar’s inclusion of both average rates and average points provides a more accurate view of mortgage terms currently offered by lenders.
Every week, HSH.com conducts a survey of mortgage rate data for a wide range of consumer mortgage products including ARMs, FHA-backed and jumbo mortgages, as well as home equity loans and lines of credit from hundreds of direct lenders in the U.S. For information on additional loan products, visit HSH.com.

The National Mortgage Complaint Center Offers Smart Tips for Anyone in the United States Wanting to Refinance of Finance a Home & Suggests Honest Lenders

The National Mortgage Complaint Center Offers Smart Tips for Anyone in the United States Wanting to Refinance of Finance a Home & Suggests Honest Lenders
(PRWEB) December 05, 2011
The National Mortgage Complaint Center says, “After the Dodd Frank Consumer Protection Act, one would think everything would be better for US homeowners. In our opinion the Dodd Frank legislation with respect to the mortgage industry did nothing. As an example the new Good Faith Estimate designed by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development looks like something that the IRS came up with. The new Good Faith Estimate is too complicated, it leaves too much information out, and the old one page Good Faith Estimate was much easier to read, and to understand.” http://NationalMortgageComplaintCenter.Com
The National Mortgage Complaint Center says, “At this moment we have some of the lowest interest rates ever. However, we want to make sure every homeowner, or home buyer understands what they are getting. First we want to cover the no point mortgage, versus the regular fees included mortgage transaction. The no point mortgage is only a good option, if you do not have the money, or equity in your home to actually do the transaction. With the no point, or zero closing cost mortgage you will pay a higher interest rate, and monthly payment. When it comes to deciding if you want a traditional mortgage where you pay the costs, versus a no closing cost mortgage, simply ask the mortgage lender, or the bank, what are the best rates for a traditional mortgage-where you pay the costs up front, versus a non traditional mortgage where the lender pays all allowable closing costs. We want anyone looking at buying, or refinancing a home to know this information, and we want everyone to at least look at both options.” http://NationalMortgageComplaintCenter.Com
The National Mortgage Complaint Center suggests the following fees are junk mortgage fees:
Administrative Fee
Excessive Underwriting Fee
Document Preparation Fee on the mortgage, or in association with title insurance
Credit Report Fees that are over are excessive
Who does the National Mortgage Complaint Center recommend as the best lenders in the United States?
American Interbanc (California, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Utah only) The National Mortgage Complaint Center & its parent group Americas Watchdog has endorsed American Interbanc for five years in a row, as the best mortgage lender in the United States. http://AmericanInterbanc.Com
Bank of America-According to the National Mortgage Complaint Center, “Believe it or not we actually like Bank of America’s mortgage products, and of all major US banks, Bank of America would be the only lender to receive our endorsement. However, there is a catch. We like Bank of Americas mortgage products offered at a branch, where the consumer, or homeowner can actually see the loan officer, or branch manager, and it is a branch in your area.” http://BankofAmerica.Com
For FHA, or VA Mortgages the National Mortgage Complaint Center continues to endorse, and recommend the James B Nutter Company. The James B Nutter company is a national mortgage lender based in Kansas City, Missouri, they are family owned, and they are the gold standard for honest FHA, or VA mortgage lenders. http://JamesBNutter.Com

With millions of Americans “underwater” on their mortgages and millions of homes facing foreclosure, President Obama unveiled a revamped home-loan refinancing program Monday during a stop in Nevada, which has the country’s highest foreclosure rate. Judy Woodruff and guests examine the politics and substance of the plan.

Brookstone Law, PC: Obama’s Housing Plan Is a Red Flag for Homeowners Seeking Relief
These days nearly everybody are looking at changing a mortgage thanks to these difficult financial times.
There are a lot of refinancing solutions so make certain shop around before you make a decision. Check the posts here for more information
Brookstone Law, PC: Obama’s Housing Plan Is a Red Flag for Homeowners Seeking Relief
Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) November 05, 2011
Although the Obama administration’s recent efforts to help homeowners could bring relief to millions who owe more than their homes are worth, the measures being considered by Washington are clearly designed to benefit banks more than homeowners, according to Vito Torchia, Jr., managing attorney of Brookstone Law, PC.
“The President’s proposal is purely political and will probably boost spending more than avert foreclosures. He intends to placate the Banks at the expense of homeowners who clearly need loan modifications, which banks have been reluctant to provide,” said Vito Torchia, Jr.
According to media coverage, the collapse of the housing market has left an estimated 11 million Americans owing more on their mortgages than their homes are worth. Although about 70% of those borrowers have loans with interest rates higher than are available today, their lack of collateral prevents them from refinancing into new, more affordable loans.
“It is becoming increasingly obvious that homeowners without expert legal counsel are going to have to deal directly with banks that are empowered by the government to offer solutions not likely to give homeowners what they need,” said Vito Torchia, Jr.
Recent media coverage shows that although a reduction in monthly payments could prevent some homeowners who aren’t in default today from going into foreclosure, experts expect an estimated 2.2 million borrowers to lose their homes in 2012.
“If the President’s plan is intended to help homeowners who are under water, helping the Banks while pushing more than two million people over the cliff is clearly the wrong way to do it,” said Vito Torchia, Jr.
According to media coverage, lenders could cut their losses significantly by modifying mortgages to lower the monthly payments of defaulting borrowers, but Banks are doing so because it lowers their bottom line profits.
“There’s no shortage of homeowners whose property values and incomes have collapsed through no fault of their own while lenders claim there is a moral problem in bailing out borrowers who can’t pay off their debts. This is ludicrous considering the Bank’s pushing of toxic loans, then consistently victimizing hardworking people throughout the country trying to keep their homes as has been well documented in the media,” said Vito Torchia, Jr. “This clearly shows the Banks don’t care about consumers, who must have effective counsel in order to protect their rights when dealing with the Banks.”
Recent media coverage has included reports that FannieMae, FreddieMac and most national banks have refused to participate in a California program that offers to pay half the cost of principal reductions for lower- and moderate-income homeowners with a demonstrable hardship, such as a severe illness or a layoff.
“If they won’t help low income homeowners with hardships, it is obvious they won’t help other homeowners suffering from the toxic loans, lack of due diligence and wrongful foreclosures for which the banks are initially responsible,” said Vito Torchia, Jr. “Homeowners trying to save their homes are at greater risk than ever of not being able to fix the problems caused by the banks that threaten them with the loss of their homes.”
According to media coverage, state prosecutors from around the nation are pursuing mortgage fraud claims against the major banks and may persuade them to commit billions of dollars to writing off some of the debt owed by borrowers.
“Fannie and Freddie, which have already been rescued by Washington, need to help homeowners under water, but if their consistent leaning towards a solution that benefits the banks at the further expense of homeowners continues the victimization of millions of people in our country who are just trying to keep their homes,” said Vito Torchia, Jr.
