    2024/01/15

    Dive into the intricacies of the 2024 real estate market in this enlightening episode of our podcast, where we unravel the complexities of mortgage rates and their impact on the housing landscape. We kick off the discussion by reflecting on the tumultuous journey of mortgage rates in 2023, highlighting the longest rising rate cycle in four decades that peaked in the third quarter. But the story takes a turn as we examine the dramatic fall in rates, marking the steepest one-month drop witnessed in 30 years.

    Join us as we explore the various factors shaping this scenario, including economic slowdown, shifts in the labor market, and the substantial decrease in inflation rates. We also delve into the influence of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy changes and the effects of global geopolitical tensions, such as the Ukraine-Russia and Israeli-Hamas conflicts, on the economy and mortgage rates.

    This episode goes beyond just numbers; it's a deep dive into the overall real estate market dynamics. We discuss how decreasing mortgage rates fuel housing demand and subsequently affect property prices. Our conversation also covers the persistent issue of housing inventory shortages and its implications for home values. Plus, we offer expert advice for realtors and potential homebuyers on timing their market entry in 2024.

    Tune in for a comprehensive understanding of the real estate market trends for the upcoming year, crucial for anyone interested in real estate, whether you're an industry professional, prospective homeowner, or a market enthusiast.

  • How To Calculate Your Monthly Mortgage Payment: A Guide // Mortgage Calculator // Jeff Smith
    2024/01/08

    If you're considering purchasing a home or refinancing your current one, you likely have many questions. These may include concerns about interest rates, expected monthly payments, and potential savings through early loan repayment.

    Jeff Smith, founder of Tiger Home Loans, will guide you through the process of calculating your mortgage payment step by step. Additionally, he will provide insights into the variables that constitute this equation, offering strategies to save money and improve your financial preparedness. He will also introduce various mortgage calculators tailored to different scenarios.

    Breaking Down Your Monthly Mortgage Payment:

    Your monthly mortgage payment consists of various financial components, including the loan amount, interest rate, loan term, and other factors:

    **Loan Amount:** For homebuyers, input the home price and deduct your down payment. In refinancing, use the expected balance after closing.

    **Interest Rate:** Focus on the base rate, not the annual percentage rate (APR), as it affects monthly payments more. The majority of initial payments primarily cover interest.

    **Loan Term:** Longer terms, like 30-year mortgages, result in smaller monthly payments but higher overall interest costs. Shorter terms, like 15-year mortgages, have the opposite effect.

    **Mortgage Insurance:** If your down payment is less than 20%, you may pay private mortgage insurance (PMI). Its rate depends on factors like down payment, credit score, loan type, and occupancy.

    **Property Taxes:** Account for property taxes, often included in your mortgage payment, as a cost of homeownership.

    **Homeowners Insurance:** Lenders mandate homeowners insurance; it can be included in monthly payments or paid separately.

    **Homeowners Association (HOA) Fees:** These are not typically included in monthly payments but can impact your budget and loan eligibility.

    Calculating Your Mortgage Payment:

    You can calculate your payment manually using this formula:
    ```
    M = P [ I(1 + I)^N ] / [ (1 + I)^N − 1]
    ```
    Breaking it down:
    - M = Monthly payment
    - P = Principal amount (loan balance)
    - I = Interest rate (monthly rate, not APR)
    - N = Number of payments (loan term in months)

    Alternatively, use a mortgage calculator for simplicity.

    Types of Mortgage Calculators:

    1. **Purchase Calculator:** Helps determine financial readiness by considering sale price, down payment, credit score, income, other debt, ZIP code, and HOA fees. Provides insights into cash needed for a down payment and affordability.

    2. **Refinance Calculator:** Assists in evaluating refinancing options based on goals (e.g., lower payments, faster payoff, cash-out), current loan amount, estimated home value, credit score, mortgage balance, other debt, and expected duration in the home.

    3. **Amortization Calculator:** Displays principal and interest payments over the loan term. Input current loan amount, loan length, interest rate, and location. Discover the impact of additional payments on interest savings and loan duration.
