      <title>Interest Rates Inch Down</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/interest-rates-drop.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;interest rates drop&quot; src=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/interest-rates-drop.jpg&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rates on 30-year fixed-rate mortgages were near record lows this week as instability in financial markets overseas had investors seeking safety in bonds and mortgage-backed securities, Freddie Mac said in releasing the results of its &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.freddiemac.com/pmms/release.html?week=21&amp;amp;year=2010&quot;&gt;Primary Mortgage Market Survey&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rates were headed back up today, however, as renewed confidence in markets had investors moving funds back into riskier investments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Freddie Mac's survey showed rates on conventional, conforming 30-year fixed-rate loans averaging 4.78 percent with an average of 0.7 point for the week ending May 27, down from 4.84 percent a week ago. That's the lowest rate since the 4.71 percent average during the week of Dec. 3.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 4.21 percent with an average of 0.7 percent, down from 4.24 percent a week ago and 4.53 percent at the same time a year ago. That's the lowest rate registered since Freddie Mac began tracking 15-year loans in August 1991.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 5-year Treasury-indexed hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) averaged 3.97 percent, with an average 0.7 point, up from 3.91 percent a week ago and 4.28 percent last year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 1-year ARM averaged 3.95 percent with an average 0.6 point, down from 4 percent last week and 4.69 percent a year ago. That rate has not been lower since May 2004.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Freddie Mac Chief Economist Frank Nothaft said &lt;strong&gt;low rates make homes more affordable&lt;/strong&gt;, softening the effect of the expiration of the federal homebuyer tax credit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Washington, D.C. has been ranked No. 1 for the third year in a row.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Portland on the other hand ranked seventh in 2009 and increased its overall score in 2010.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;American Fitness Index's Fittest Cities:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1. Washington, D.C.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2. Boston&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;3. Minneapolis&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;4. Seattle&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's been very inspiring to watch the Sherwood community come together and spring into action to supply the basic &lt;strong&gt;&quot;Necessities in Need&quot;&lt;/strong&gt; which will now allow care kits to be&amp;nbsp;provided to&amp;nbsp;deserving local Sherwood families who are receiving food bank assistance&amp;nbsp;through Sherwood Helping Hands.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Among the list of accolades the Portland Metro area has received, being the nations&amp;nbsp;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.travelportland.com/media/portland_in_news.html#2010&quot; title=&quot;Portland Awards&quot;&gt;greenest city&lt;/a&gt;&quot; is one that greatly defines the caring nature of the people you'll find here.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With Sherwood being one of the most desirable suburbs, it's only natural that we contribute to the education and celebration of a better way of living.&amp;nbsp; As residents and Realtors of Sherwood, Gardner Team Real Estate values that the &lt;strong&gt;&quot;Business of Old Town Sherwood (BOOTS)&quot;&lt;/strong&gt; has created an event where the residents of Sherwood can enjoy a fun day while at the same time adding to the quality of life people have come expect here.&amp;nbsp; This is after all the heart of our future and having this event at the heart of Sherwood in Old Town is a perfect touch.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This&amp;nbsp;Saturday,&amp;nbsp;April 24th&amp;nbsp;we&amp;nbsp;celebrated Green Day in Old Town and with a few snapshots, I've put together an online &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/scrapbook-town-green-day-2010-2320&quot;&gt;scrapbook&lt;/a&gt; to remember the day.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Committed&amp;nbsp;to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thegardnerteam.net/default.asp.pg-Foundations&quot; title=&quot;Gardner Gives Back&quot;&gt;giving back&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and supporting&amp;nbsp;our community, Gardner Team Real Estate was proud to sponsor one of the main events, the bike carnival in the U.S. Bank parking lot. We&amp;nbsp;also partnered with our local bike shop Willamette Cycling in Sherwood where together&amp;nbsp;we raffled&amp;nbsp;off an awesome&amp;nbsp;free-style bike which&amp;nbsp;was on&amp;nbsp;display inside&amp;nbsp;Old Town&amp;nbsp;US Bank the week prior and at The Gardner Team booth during the Green Day event.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;The lucky winner will have their photo taken when they pick&amp;nbsp;up their bike this week at our John L. Scott office.&amp;nbsp; We&amp;nbsp;will be posting that&amp;nbsp;here soon.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We also&amp;nbsp;gave away nearly 200&amp;nbsp;&quot;green friendly&quot; reusable shopping bags&amp;nbsp;to people who came by our booth.&amp;nbsp; It was a fun day!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Short Sale Options for Sherwood Area Home Sellers</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/shortsale.png&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;shortsale&quot; src=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/shortsale.png&quot; height=&quot;303&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;365&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to CNN Money, banks are ramping up short sales thanks to government incentives and the realization that &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;short sales&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; result in lower losses than foreclosures. On average, banks lose 50 percent on a foreclosure, but only 30 percent on a &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;short sale&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The hang-up for many short sellers has been second liens, but the new government program gives first lien holders incentives to share and offers second lien holders and investors a $6,000 cash incentive.&amp;nbsp; Under the new program lenders must tell the seller the minimum they'll accept. When the seller comes back with a good offer, it must be accepted within 10 days.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Forbes Names Portland in 10 BEST Cities for Borrowers</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/APPROVED.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;APPROVED&quot; src=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/APPROVED.jpg&quot; height=&quot;304&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;445&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We're continuing&amp;nbsp;to see a trend here in the NW as we make a majority of the&amp;nbsp;top market lists from one thing&amp;nbsp;to the other&amp;nbsp;by Forbes, CNN Money Magazine, Family Circle Magazine&amp;nbsp;and many others.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And, when it comes to the best places borrowers are willing to dish out the cash, some places are simply better than others - and you guessed it, we're one of them!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to a recent article this month, the best cities have the lowest percentage of foreclosures and delinquencies, including a low percentage of bank-owned homes. In most of the cities on this best list, home prices are actually rising.&amp;nbsp; This kind of solid housing market motivates banks to offer lower rates and better terms.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here are the 10 cities that Forbes ranks as the best for borrowers:&lt;br /&gt;1. Kansas City, Mo.&lt;br /&gt;2. Houston&lt;br /&gt;3. Dallas&lt;br /&gt;4. Virginia Beach, Va.&lt;br /&gt;5. San Antonio, Texas&lt;br /&gt;6. Boston&lt;br /&gt;7. Pittsburgh&lt;br /&gt;8. Denver&lt;br /&gt;9. Seattle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10. Portland, Ore.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Buyers Purchasing Power NOW At An ALL Time High</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/business-interest-rate.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;business-interest-rate&quot; src=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomesandland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/business-interest-rate.jpg&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With only &lt;strong&gt;55 days left &lt;/strong&gt;to take advantage of the tax credits, here's something very important&amp;nbsp;to think about...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If interest rates increase by one-half point from the current rate, as has been predicted by many economists, a buyer with a loan amount of $200,000 will lose approximately $11,000 in purchasing power. Furthermore, if a buyer does not act prior to the expiration of the tax credit, that's an additional loss of purchasing power ($8,000 for first time buyers; $6,500 for repeat buyers). In other words, if a first time buyer takes advantage of CURRENT interest rates AND the $8,000 tax credit, their purchasing power is a whopping $19,000 more than if they bought after interest rates rise and the tax credit expires ($11,000+$8,000=$19,000). That is a significant amount of money!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The interest rate differential can be applied to all buyers in all price ranges, anywhere in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sherwoodhomes.com&quot;&gt;Sherwood&lt;/a&gt; or the surrounding areas&amp;nbsp;because with every increase in interest rates, a buyer's purchasing power declines.&amp;nbsp; As mentioned before, economists are predicting a rise in interest rates in the year ahead and the tax credit expires on April 30, so this is truly a moment in time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The moral of the story is that as long as you buy a home by the April 30 deadline,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;your purchasing power is at an&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;all time premium&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; This is a historic opportunity; don't wait on the fence till the last minute, or worse... find yourself wishing you'd made your move.&lt;/p&gt;
