There’s a lot of talk about how 5G cause brain damage, change people’s personality, and even death. I have attached a shocking video about 5G that is alarming and needs to get addressed. Bill Gates is mentioned on the video and his mission to depopulate the World with euthanization through 5G. A must watch.

Housing inventory levels in Florida have seen a significant increase recently after years of extremely tight supply. Here are some key points about the rising inventory situation in Florida’s housing market:

1. Sharp inventory rise: According to data from Florida Realtors, the inventory of active listings in Florida was up over 85% year-over-year in March 2023. This translates to around 4-5 months’ supply of homes for sale in many markets, compared to 1-2 months during the pandemic frenzy.
2. Seller influx: More homeowners in Florida are listing their properties for sale, driven by factors like the desire to cash in on high home prices, concerns about missing the peak of the market, or life changes necessitating a move.
3. New construction impact: An increase in new home construction over the past couple of years is also contributing to higher inventory levels across different price points.
4. Investor selling: Real estate investors who bought properties during the housing boom are now offloading some of their holdings in anticipation of a market cooldown.
5. Regional variations: While inventory is up statewide, the increase is more pronounced in some areas like Tampa, Orlando, and Miami, compared to others like Jacksonville.
6. Price adjustments: With more choices for buyers, properties that are overpriced or less desirable are sitting longer on the market, prompting some sellers to reduce asking prices.
7. Moderating sales: Higher mortgage rates and economic uncertainty have led to a moderation in home sales activity, further contributing to inventory buildup.

The surge in housing inventory in Florida provides more options for buyers who had been frustrated by the intense competition and lack of available homes during the pandemic boom years. However, it also signals a market shift that real estate investors and sellers need to navigate carefully.

As a multi-state MLO based in Utah, I am always looking for indicators in other states to predict what may be around the corner and what states I should focus my ad dollars in. Florida has been a great revenue generator for me over the past three years. I feel Florida will be a great place to stay focused in the next five years. That is why I hired my first MLO to the F1 Mortgage Team in Florida. FOMO (Fear of Losing Out) seems to be motivating out-of-state buyers to take a hard look at income properties in the state as well as people moving from other states to get in on the relative “good deals” in Florida as new residents of the Sunshine state. Employment opportunities in the state and work-from-home scenarios are making Florida very attractive to people who would never have looked at the state as a possible home 10 years ago.

If you are an MLO looking for new ground, I would suggest Florida. The state of Florida is massive and can benefit from quality MLOs looking to plant their MLO flag in the state. If you speak Spanish, the further South you prospect, the better.

Peter Schiff is a legend. Peter Schiff called the 2008 financial crisis when others were laughing at him. I remember Peter Schiff calling out Washington Mutual and sure enough the largest mortgage lender and servicer went out of business. This economic crisis is obvious. Consumers are feeling it at the pump, grocery stores, malls, auto repair shops, auto dealers, shopping for homes, surging mortgage rates, and the cost of goods and services skyrocketing like a runaway train. The dollar is becoming worthless because the Federal Reserve Board keeps printing money like there is no tomorrow. Wages are not keeping up with the cost of goods and services. $100,000 salary per year is no longer high income. The cost of goods and services has been rising rapidly in recent years, leading to significant inflationary pressures on consumers and businesses alike. Here are some key points about the current state of inflation and the factors driving high costs:

1. Elevated inflation levels: The annual inflation rate in the United States reached a 40-year high of 9.1% in June 2022, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). While it has moderated slightly since then, it remains well above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.
2. Supply chain disruptions: The COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread disruptions in global supply chains, leading to shortages of various goods and materials, which drove up costs.
3. Rising energy and commodity prices: The war in Ukraine, coupled with increased global demand as economies reopened, has led to a surge in energy prices, particularly for gasoline and natural gas. Other commodities, such as food and metals, have also seen significant price increases.
4. Labor shortages and wage growth: Many industries have faced labor shortages, leading to higher wages and increased costs for businesses, which are often passed on to consumers.
5. Strong consumer demand: Pent-up demand from the pandemic, coupled with government stimulus measures, has fueled robust consumer spending, putting upward pressure on prices.
6. Housing and rent costs: The housing market has seen a sharp rise in prices and rental costs, contributing significantly to overall inflation.
7. Federal Reserve’s response: The Federal Reserve has been aggressively raising interest rates to combat inflation, but the effects of these monetary policy actions often take time to fully materialize.

The persistently high inflation has eroded consumer purchasing power and squeezed household budgets, particularly for essential goods and services like food, housing, and energy. Businesses, too, have had to grapple with higher input costs, which can impact their profitability and investment decisions.

While the Federal Reserve’s efforts to cool demand and bring inflation under control are ongoing, the current inflationary environment remains a significant challenge for both consumers and businesses alike.

Eligible active duty, retired, and eligible spouses of eligible deceased members of the United States Military can qualify for VA loans with bad credit. Getting approved for a VA loan with bad credit can be challenging, but it is possible under certain circumstances. Here are some key points regarding VA loans and bad credit:

1. Credit Score Requirements:
2. The VA does not have a minimum credit score requirement, but most VA-approved lenders typically require a credit score of at least 620.
3. Some lenders may consider applicants with scores as low as 580, but they will likely require compensating factors.
4. Compensating Factors:
5. VA lenders may be more flexible if you have compensating factors that offset the risk associated with a lower credit score.
6. Compensating factors can include a higher residual income, significant assets or cash reserves, or a strong employment history.
7. Credit History Analysis:
8. VA lenders will closely review your credit report to understand the reasons behind any derogatory items or late payments.
9. They may be more lenient if the negative items are due to extenuating circumstances, such as job loss, medical issues, or divorce.
10. Waiting Periods:
11. If you have previous derogatory events like bankruptcies, foreclosures, or short sales, there are mandatory waiting periods before you can qualify for a VA loan.
12. For Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the waiting period is usually 2 years.
13. For Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you may be eligible after 12 months of on-time payments.
14. For foreclosures and short sales, the waiting period is typically 2 years.
15. Debt-to-Income Ratio:
16. VA loans have more flexible debt-to-income ratio requirements compared to conventional loans.
17. Generally, your total monthly debt payments (including the new mortgage) should not exceed 41% of your gross monthly income.
18. Documentation:
19. Be prepared to provide documentation explaining any derogatory credit events, such as letters of explanation, proof of extenuating circumstances, and evidence of re-established credit.

It’s important to note that while the VA does not have strict credit score requirements, individual lenders may have their own overlays or stricter guidelines. Working with an experienced VA lender or mortgage broker can help you navigate the process and understand your specific eligibility based on your credit situation.

Additionally, taking steps to improve your credit score, reduce outstanding debts, and increase your cash reserves can significantly improve your chances of qualifying for a VA loan with bad credit.

Every mortgage lender are giving me the same story for being late 120 days on a past mortgage loan payment in the past 24 months.

Most lender consider a borrower with a 120 day late on a home loan the same as a foreclosure.

The Chinese Restaurant has its operations being staffed by the run the best operations staff, chefs, cooks, and auxiliary help. The restaurant opens at 11 am and closes at 10 pm. Lucky Chen, a culinary top tier ethnic restaurant with working man prices and beyond compare, always feels that it is the first time ther for me with an extraordinary dishes such as their custom made to order dishes when Mark Chen is the head chef the tofu and beef dish, the low mein, the beef chop suey, spring rolls, the custom made oil hot sauce, and dozens of great dishes to name to list. . A symphony of flavors unfolded with each spoonful, as the broth embraced my palate in a delicate dance.

Her dedication not only to the cuisine but also to creating a memorable experience for every diner is what sets Lucky Chen Chinese Restaurant apart from the competition.. As someone who leans towards meat, I have a special place in my heart (and my stomach) for their unique delicious beef dishes. The Sautéed Beef in Hot Spicy Sauce is my absolute go-to. This dish, so frequently requested by me, has affectionately been dubbed “Gustan’s Beef” by my friends. It’s a vibrant mix of tender beef pieces, vegetables, and just the right level of heat to keep you coming back for more – a true testament to Wendy’s mastery in the kitchen. While seafood isn’t my personal preference, my companions are always enchanted by the oceanic offerings on the menu.

Lee Chen‘s personal touch and her innovative spirit infuse every dish, every recommendation she makes, and every interaction within the restaurant. It’s her vision that has turned dining at Lucky Chen’s Food into an experience that’s as much about the community and connection as it is about the exquisite food.
