New Private Listing

Riverfront Estate, 6000sf Home, 1.33 acres with 240ft of frontage on the Indian River for $1,800,000.

Great opportunity to buy a piece of pristine Florida. This 6000 sf mid-century home was built on a grand scale with generous sized rooms, 5 fireplaces, 5 bedrooms 5.5 bathrooms with a hidden stairway to an amazing media / den with it’s own bathroom and river views (classified as a bedroom). A great house with good bones for a remodel.

The main appeal of this property is it’s situated on two Indialantic Lots that could possibly be separated. Click on the picture for more information.

Low Rates on Jumbo Mortgages

I just got the news from my wholesale lending consultant…he can now lend at 4.25% for a 5 year ARM and at 4.625% on a 7 year ARM with loans up to $850,000 with 30% down. The loan values can go up to $1.5 milion with 35% down. This program requires the borrower to have a 660 credit score for a primary residence and a 680 credit score if lending on a second home.

If you are looking for a lender for a purchase or refinance, you should contact Bryan Troy.

Low Prices + Low Rates = Buy Now

Rates for home loans remain low – but it won’t last forever. The Fed continues on their purchasing plan of Mortgage Backed Securities, and the added demand has kept Bond prices high and home loan rates low. Last week, they purchased another $32.4B, bringing the total to $849B out of the $1.25T they committed to. While these Fed purchases have helped home loan rates stay near present low levels, remember that their buying program is set to be over near the end of the year. There is talk that the program will be extended – but there has also been talk that it will end early – so nothing is a guarantee, except for the fact that when the Fed purchasing program is over, home loan rates will assuredly rise.
