Some lenders are going to be an eighth higher or lower. Comp plans are just one of the many variables. At the end of the day, this is about honing in on the most prevalently quoted rates. Keep in mind that best-ex refers to perfect scenarios in terms of LLPAs.

As I'm sure you'd guess, it would greatly depend on the magnitude and composition of the revision.

how much credibility would the NFP lose if BLS revises lower next month given MG's explanation? more importantly, would markets care?

Is there a statute of limitations on CAIVRS? I have a client looking at USDA but had a foreclosure almost 10 years ago on a previous USDA loan.

MG - the extrapolation is that if so many people worked less than their projected number of hours during the payperiod including 2/12 (Eastern snow storm), then likely fewer jobs were created, but will likely be created in future months?

BL, what's good--and "good" is relative---is that it breaks a potentially alarming trend of declining payroll growth in the short term

What about taking in consideration an individual L.O. compensation plan? When comparing MND best execution to my PAR pricing I'm usually an .125 higher but still better than the big banks on Conforming and Gov. pricing!

Can't get paid on profitability, really need to make sure clients want to float if you're going to. Only thing worse than having a client mad they locked too soon is losing floating loans completely when rates spike.

Few years back, numerous large companies went to the federal government for a bailout during the recession. One of the very first things the American people wanted curbed was exec payment . A business that failed miserably and needed Troubled Asset Relief Program help shouldn't be lining already lined pockets. Nevertheless, a new report has found executive payment slightly dipped even while a number of organizations, such as GM, American International Group and Ally Financial, were receiving Troubled Asset Relief Program funding.

From the "Summary" : Reports from most of the twelve Federal Reserve Districts indicated that economic conditions continued to expand from January to early February. Eight Districts reported improved levels of activity, but in most cases the increases were characterized as modest to moderate. New York and Philadelphia experienced a slight decline in activity, which was mostly attributed to the unusually severe weather experienced in those regions. Growth slowed in Chicago, and Kansas City r

The funding fee is based on whether the borrower has used his entitlement before.. Not whether the current loan is a VA.
