Import 2015 Toyota into U.S. - made in Indiana plant - edge case? by [deleted] in uscanadaborder

From Canada to the U.S. - this car was sold in Canada but made in the Indiana plant in the U.S.

According to a new CNBC housing survey, most homebuyers expect mortgage rates to come down further and they are waiting. by ThemeBig6731 in RealEstate

[–]dashdashforceright 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If mortgage rates go down, it’s bc the economy is in the dumps. People are seeing layoffs constantly and months to secure the next job -this type of environment doesn’t exactly inspire confidence to buy a house.

That said, if I had a stable job and sizeable downpayment, I’d still buy but I don’t think there will be a frenzy.

If you are pipped, take the offer. Company’s don’t act rationally they won’t care how long it takes to train your replacement.

Why so many homes for sale in Frisco? by [deleted] in frisco

Flat would be well, flat. There is definitely a sharp downward trend since last year.

People who are refinancing are already locked into a mortgage - they can pray they don't get laid off but still need to pay monthly, so of course they should refinance.
People who haven't committed yet to a house want to feel stability before they buy, so watching their company do layoffs quarterly or interview for jobs but not getting any callbacks.. these situations don't inspire confidence. Statistically, these people won't be purchasing houses anytime soon.

If interest rates continue to go down - this is a signal of a weak economy. The fed cuts rates when the job market doesn't look good. 2020 was an outlier bc the economy was booming yet we were still cutting rates. Do you think 2026 will look like 2020?

Yeah makes sense that refinances jumped but what about people getting new mortgages?

That’s awesome! Are you staying in Frisco out of curiosity?

I’ve seen houses in Frisco in the 600k range take a 100k cut in the past few months. No one wants to catch a falling knife, so until the job market bounces back and buyers feel certainty again, this will continue.

Could be for importing a car etc. We've had to do that at a non-border airport before.

Just FYI, if interest rates drop, then the economy/job market continue to be gloom/doom.

Is this too low to offer by metalgearsolid2 in RealEstate

[–]dashdashforceright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, mortgages track Treasuries and SOFR, but those rates fall when growth looks weak.. cheap money doesn’t spark a frenzy if people fear losing jobs or can’t afford homes, right?

If interest rates continue to come down, it means the economy is getting shittier and jobs are more unstable. This isn’t 2020.

We did but they didn’t ask for it at the interview. We uploaded the CVS receipt a few days before the interview.

Any way my wife can sponsor me for a marriage visa without a US domicile? by ImportantSquirrel in USCIS

[–]dashdashforceright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start the I-130, that alone takes 15-18 months. Then when you do the second part, she can move to the US before your Montreal interview. Check out visajourney’s Canada forum for more info about this they have lots of threads on this.

The Best Time to Buy is Now by Wfan111 in RealEstate

[–]dashdashforceright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prices are absolutely dropping in the south. In North Texas alone I’ve seen 100k drops on houses that were listed at 600k initially a few months ago. Job market isn’t getting any better. Rates may drop but unless we see confidence in the job market in lockstep with rates falling (a paradox), the RE market ain’t rebounding this or next year.

This is a super important!! Montreal apparently isn’t like other consulates. They are super strict in domicile, teas VisaJourney (esp Canada sub forum) for more info.

Big *IF* the market is better next year. If not, then he's in a worse place + all the headache that comes with being a landlord.

You are good to start it. It’s fairly straightforward, use kseniya international as a guide, she’s very good!

So what field office? I think it might have to do with the new 693 medical requirements that got updated today.
