If, as the saying goes, “”no news is good news,” last week was almost a good week for U.S. real estate. Henderson real estate watchers like me found no hint of the kind of sweeping changes that can alter residential real estate patterns for buyers and sellers. Possibly because of the looming election, little space [...]
Whenever a month’s Henderson real estate activity ends on a Friday, the number-gatherers close up shop knowing there will be a longer than usual lapse until they can be sure of the Henderson real estate activity statistics. That creates a breather for those of us who keep abreast of Texas and Henderson real estate. It’s [...]
If you go looking for insights from successful Henderson real estate investors, depending on which areas they concentrate on, you could come up with a variety of takes. Despite the distinct differences that separate the commercial and residential investment spheres, there are some time-worn truisms about the real life experience that would have most investors [...]
It was fairly clear that the table had been set for last week’s Federal Reserve meeting to result in a minimal rise in mortgage interest rates. Their Fed Funds rate directly influences the mortgage interest rates that banks observe. Since Henderson real estate activity can be spurred or dampened by the monthly payment amounts Henderson [...]
If you try to predict what Henderson real estate activity is likely to be based on only our local activity, you soon find what causes statisticians to turn up their noses: the sample size is simply too small to project reliable trends. That’s why serious Henderson observers look to the incoming real estate activity stats [...]
Whenever you’re in the planning stages for your next Henderson real estate venture, the best available Henderson mortgage rate is a number you look for. Whether you are thinking of a purchase of a new Henderson home or simply refinancing your existing property, that rate determines how much you will pay each month. You would [...]
If you keep track of the ebb and flow of U.S. economic news, you might also be aware of how it relates to some things that happen here. Particularly in the way Henderson’s mortgage rates have been responding to the ups and downs of announcements from Washington, the cause and effect relationship has settled into [...]
There’s a reason the English language’s greatest playwright was called “The Bard of Avon” and not “The Bard of Henderson.” In Hamlet, for instance, despite the fact that Shakespeare’s Polonius character is supposed to be a wise counselor, he gets at least one piece of advice wrong when he tells his son, “Neither a borrower [...]
Those of us who keep abreast of where our Henderson’s home loan interest rates are likely to head haven’t had much to keep track of lately. By the end of last week, that was beginning to change. Ever since the Federal Reserve’s single boost in their Fed Funds rate by a quarter of a percent [...]
Thoughtful Henderson investors find themselves in an increasingly uncertain environment. Although the official cost of living numbers indicate that inflation isn’t much of an issue, few Henderson residents who mind the family budget are convinced. Even if that were currently the case, even fewer think it a situation that will last indefinitely. At the same [...]
The headline had to stop everyone who even glanced at Bloomberg’s Technology section: Henderson readers (even those who are relatively gimmick-immune) would have been hard pressed to pass up last Wednesday’s Bloomberg Technology headline: “Can This Real Estate Gimmick Save the World?” Whether the subject of the article really is a gimmick or “the [...]
The Huffington Post (“Huffpo” to its friends) has an entire section devoted to real estate doings. Although the vast majority of those dispatches are tidbits about awesomely expensive celebrity condos in Manhattan, sometimes the Huffpo editors’ attention wanders momentarily to other matters. Last month they uncovered a study which delved into a topic of interest [...]
