Market Update by Jennifer Hernandez

I'm back posting my weekly updates! This week, instead of writing about the kids, how about my 67 year old Dad? He is so cute. Due to a stroke a couple months ago (he is okay), he has not been cleared to drive yet. So he is BORED. He found a way to get a Metro bus pass, and since our office is right off Westheimer, he now trolls the bus stops and retail nearby, and then pit stops in our office for the free snacks. You go Daddy! In the markets: • Rates moved lower despite strong jobs numbers, with help from Ukraine headlines, and Russia’s request for an emergency meeting with the UN: o http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/reports/weekly_mortgage_rates/2014/5/2/987 • More news about what is going on in the Ukraine: o http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/03/world/europe/ukraine.html?_r=0 Most anticipated article- fate of the ASHBY HIGHRISE • http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/morning_call/2014/05/fate-of-ashby-highrise-decided.html?ana=e_hstn_rdup&s=newsletter&ed=2014-05-02&u=UnnItRR633tTsS7MoBNcfA0e1b5022&t=1399068750 Featured Listing of the Week: • Open House Wed 5/7 in Montgomery (57 minutes from town!)- 14,000 sq ft great ranch or corporate retreat location.
