With the GDP release tomorrow, Austin mortgage borrowers are advised to lock their interest rates with the float down in preparation for a stress-free weekend

With the GDP release tomorrow, Austin mortgage borrowers are advised to lock their interest rates with the float down in preparation for a stress-free weekend. The treasury market has reacted favorably, but the MBS spreads are working against us… meaning that MBS pricing has not kept the pace with Treasuries.

With Austin mortgage rates/pricing at the best levels of the year and the 10 year note hitting 2010 low yields, the time is right for borrowers to lock in their Austin mortgage rates

That scenario has a high probability (in our opinion) and brings with it lower Austin mortgage rates

Given the Fed’s exit from MBS purchases, their steering of quantitative easing ala Austin mortgage rates hike sooner than later, and a fragile housing market that must be content will mean more inventory and less stimulus, a case for the double dip can certainly be made. That scenario has a high probability (in our opinion) and brings with it lower Austin mortgage rates.

The market was doing just fine until the headlines broke the minutes of last month’s FOMC meeting (Fed Open Market Committee)

The market was doing just fine until the headlines broke the minutes of last month’s FOMC meeting (Fed Open Market Committee). The “Street” didn’t take kindly to comments regarding treasury asset sales, consideration of a .25 bps hike in the Discount Rate, and a general hawkish tone once they can determine that a recovery is “self sustaining”.

If our bias is correct, you should see mortgage pricing hold steady to improve, watching to see if stocks can find their sea legs

We do feel that any selling will be shallow as the global doom and gloom will be with us for some time to come. Stocks would benefit and maybe just in time to save that market from a much bigger correction. If our bias is correct, you should see mortgage pricing hold steady to improve, watching to see if stocks can find their sea legs.
