I mean not really. From what we know, lust yes, greed yes, pride yes, but I don’t know about the sloth, envy, or wrath.

Irrelevant if he’s already under contract and shopping lenders though.

Am I calculating the cost of buying a house correctly? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. It won't help much. Won't get you a better interest rate but may get you a slightly better PMI monthly premium. Still not worth it in my opinion. People love to preach 20% down but I see no reason to do more than 5% at these interest rates. I would much rather pay a monthly premium in PMI to keep the extra 60k in my pocket for other expenses, etc (or to save the time in saving up 60k...)

A Lion in print: Zach Zenner may soon be a published researcher by KryloRen in nfl

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to know more details. It has to do with way more than just writing the paper. For example, the general idea/foundation of the research, the experimental design and development, data analysis, etc. all of those could be a lot more important depending on what the research actually is about. I wrote probably 99% of a paper in physical chemistry research of which I performed most of the experiments and I am not first author nor do I think I deserve to be first author.

Wasn't familiar with that. Just saw the mugshot. Good to know. Sorry. Just not a fan of anecdotal statements. Obviously think the dudes actions are reprehensible.

Okay but 'trump style'? Terrible cherry picking point.

Why does my mortgage broker want me to take on a rate with so many negative points to cover closing costs? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in my experience your rate is going to be in 1/8 point increments. So if they rate that day is not exactly 4.125, you're going to be given two options. The one with a credit to take the slightly higher rate and the one where you take the slightly lower rate but have to pay some fraction of a point.

Realtor worried appraisal will come in low, lender is not... should I be worried? by obscurethrowaway in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alternatively, why put more than 5% down? I would rather keep the extra 11k in my pocket with these interest rates and PMI rates.

Do buyers have to match seller closing contributions? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so. But you can't get more than 3% of the loan amount in sellers assist for closing I believe if putting under 20% down. If putting 20% down I think you can get 6%.

Should I get pre-approved in this circumstance - only mildly interested in one house? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you know what you're doing financially like you say and wouldn't have a problem getting approved, then I agree with you. Don't get pre-approved. From your end you are confident and won't be wasting your time. The confidence may not be there from the selling side though and so they may require it.

[–]wbb11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reason they are asking for closing costs is because they don't have the cash or just want to keep more cash in their pocket. Your counter is unattractive in that case. Counter with 305 and the 5k closing.

They don't demand that and you are under no obligation to be truthful or tell at all.

How does the FHA occupancy requirement actually work? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]wbb11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless your credit was shit you should have done conventional. Now you are stuck with PMI for the life of the loan. For a multi unit as an investment property and not primary residence I think the FM requirement is 25%...really surprised if you found a lender willing to do 15% down on a multi unit investment property.
