| Hello friends! Lola, the 1 year old boxer, showed up on our doorstep on Thursday. Fernando (my husband) had 'kind of' asked me if we should adopt a dog he saw on Craig's List, and I guess he interpreted my pondering questions as a yes. Lola is very sweet, and I can already tell the boys are LOVING their new little buddy. Guess I'm not the only queen of the house anymore. FOUR clients needing a rescue showed up at our doorstep last week. That is our weekly record. All for different reasons, but in my opinion it is disappointing, really, that we have to rescue at all. Our first step is usually to advise if the client can stay where they are and weather out the storm. That is always the fastest option. Sometimes, in case of a prior denial or oversight, we need to start over all together. Our promise to you is that we will advise QUICKLY, and once we get the clients full info and docs, help set a new time line to present to all parties, if necessary. One example you can see this week in the video down below 'A Deal We Saved'. IN THE TREASURY MARKETS Midweek the 10 year note fell to the lowest level in a year. This has caused concern to the markets to 'balance' portfolios with more treasuries so as not to leave investments as exposed in this volatile market. The Ukranian/Russian dilemma is still concern for markets, regardless of what is going on at home. We still do not know what Russia's response will be over the election last Sunday of a new President. So rates have been good. However, with more treasury friendly news (the GDP revision to a lower than expected) number this week, lenders were hesitant to lower rates further, holding back for expected future volatility, and holding on to some gains.
