First home, refinance, investment property, or the condo nobody else could finance. Timberline shops your loan across dozens of wholesale lenders and knows the guidelines cold.
October's jobs report came in far stronger than economists expected, with hiring well above forecast and unemployment slipping lower. That usually pushes mortgage rates up. This time bond yields jumped briefly, then settled back near where they started within minutes. The 10-year Treasury yield sits slightly higher than yesterday but remains well below its level a month ago, and traders are still watching the tech stock slide for direction.
If you are floating, you have not lost ground today, but a strong economy can change that quickly. If you are shopping, this calm gives you room to run numbers. Lock alert: stay flexible, and call us before the next big data release.
