California Refinance

Reasons to refinance your California mortgage:

1. California Interest rates may be lower now than when you originally got your current California mortgage. If interest rates are 1 percentage point below your current interest rate you should look into refinancing.

2. Maybe when you originally got your California mortgage you took an adjustable rate mortgage, and now with California mortgage interest rates lower it's time to switch it to a fixed rate mortgage. Fixed rate California mortgages can reduce your monthly payments if the interest rates have dropped sufficiently.

3. Perhaps you want to make some home improvements and need cash out to finance the changes.

4. Maybe you want to change the term of your current 30 year California mortgage to a 15 year mortgage at today's lowest California mortgage interest rates.

Foreclosures Fall to Lowest Level in Over 4 Years
The number of new foreclosure filings fell below 200,000 for only the second time in more than four years. California was responsible for more than half of the latest improvement. Meanwhile, Boston saw a major increase in new filings.

Residential loan servicers filed foreclosure notices on 188,780 properties during April. Filings include default notices, scheduled auctions and repossessions.

The last time foreclosures were this low was in July 2007, when 179,599 U.S. properties were hit with a filing.




BofA Goes National With Short Sale Payouts
After testing a program that pays delinquent borrowers to help unload their properties through a short sale, Bank of America Corp. is now expanding the program.

The pilot program tested last year by BofA in Florida offered borrowers up to $20,000 to sell their home in a short sale. Nearly 11,000 borrowers took the bank up on its offer, and several hundred have closed so far.

Now BofA is taking the program national, though sand states are expected to see the most participation. Maximum payouts have been increased.




Subprime Foreclosures Improve Despite Rise in Overall Rate
Past-due payments on home loans have fallen for three consecutive quarters, though performance on mortgages to veterans deteriorated. But the rate of foreclosures was higher despite an improvement in subprime foreclosures.

Residential delinquency of at least 30 days was 11.79 percent as of the first quarter.

The rate fell from 11.96 percent in the fourth quarter. Delinquency has been lower each quarter since the second-quarter 2011, when the rate was 12.87 percent.




Residential Issuance Drives Up Ginnie Activity
Thanks to strong residential activity, securitizations at the Government National Mortgage Association soared last month. Even multifamily issuance was stronger. But reverse mortgage volume was lower.

Mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae during April leapt 25 percent from March, according to monthly data.

Securitizations were 38 percent stronger than in April 2011 at the Washington, D.C.-based company.




Small Wholesaler Seeing Big Results from HARP 2.0
New business at a small Texas-based wholesale lender that operates in more than two dozen states has exploded since it began accepting applications for mortgages processed under the Home Affordable Refinance Program. Originations are so strong that the company is recruiting more employees to help it keep up with demand.

The program was originally launched in March 2009, though participation was far lower than originally projected.

So HARP guidelines were eased in October 2011 with the elimination of requirements for loan-to-value limits, mandatory appraisals and representations and warranties.
