    Market Commentary (Friday, November 13, 2009):
    This mornings Consumer Sentiment report came in lower than expected at 66 instead of the estimated 71. In other news, the Fed
    stepped in yesterday with more buying of Mortgage Backed Securities, which helped Bond prices recover from news of a weak
    Treasury Auction. However, now is a good time to remember that the Fed is winding down that type of buying support, which will
    likely result in Bond prices moving lower and home loan rates rising over the coming months.
    Next week’s three reports to watch are the Retail Sales, Consumer Price Index and the the Philadelphia Fed Index. We will continue
    to keep you updated on the results and impact these reports will have on mortgage rates.

    • Industry estimates find that half of all homeowners who lose their homes to foreclosure have
    no contact with their loan servicers. Homeowners at risk of default or those who already are
    behind on mortgage payments are advised to contact their servicer at the first sign of trouble.
    Consumers should request to speak with someone in the home retention dept., and expect a
    long wait time.
    • When working on a loan modification, short-sale, or repayment plan, servicers likely will ask
    the homeowner to explain the reasons they can no longer make their mortgage payments.
    Borrowers should be honest and realistic. The servicer also will need to verify the borrower’s
    current income, unemployment benefits (if any), household expenses, tax returns, property
    taxes, hazard and flood insurance premiums, and condo or HOA dues
