I closed on two properties today. One is a rental 5% the other is most likely a flip so they stuck me at 6.25% but its a 6 month term note so if I decide to just keep it then it'll move to 5%

For a personal residence I'd think there should be 2.5-3.25% available.

As long as some of them stay alive to cook me some pizza and pasta this seems like a win....

Along these lines.....

I'm within the 60 day window to rate lock on a new home that's being built.

any chance the 30-year fixed drops back in the 3.25 range? I'm at 3.5 today, and can lock, but not sure whether to roll the dice, as they say....

This week I increased my retirement by 2%, added about 25% to my stocks today, and am refinancing for a much better rate.

I'll keep putting bullets in the money gun as I find them.

Made a note to buy NAIL at 6 a few days back. Finally got around to it at 6.90. Looks like it has huge gap to fill. Even if it get back to 20 the money made will worth it.

Do you think the expected unemployment was at all priced into the initial crash?
[Reply]

The initial drop was due to that wonderfully timed Saudi Arabian / Russian nuclear bomb to successfully destroy our oil industry.

Do I think the market has priced in 30% unemployment in 2020? Nope.

Do you think there is going to be 30% unemployment?
