I am looking to purchase my first home in the summer with my brother. We both make very good salaries, but we're trying to steer towards an 80/20 loan. I was figuring an interest rate somewehere in the 6.5?.25?rea for the 80/20 respectively. Also, we will both be below the 28?ITI threshold, and 36?TI threshold. We both have great credit (both over 700), and over 5 years credit history. However, we don't have enough for a 5?own payment in our market. Are these interest rates realistic? Is it even possible to get an 80/20 loan now due to tightenings in the mortgage industry? What would be the best way to obtain the loan, through an online site or through a mortgage consultant?

I am currently working for $19hr in a customer service company. NACA mortgage consultants starts at $12 however with room for commission of $700/$900 each closed loan. The complany explains a consultant can close about 3 to 5 loans a month. DO you think is worth leaving my old job that is paying me $19hr? would it truly be worth it in the long run? NACA is a non profit organization that provides loans for low income and middle class individuals.

I am interesting in working in Real Estate ( CA) and I am trying to find a list/website with at least some description of possible careers within the field to look over to determine what area of real estate would suit me best. For example: Sales, Appraiser, Mortgage, Consultant, etc. I'm aware of the general well known fields listed above - but would like to know any/all options. A general internet search only gets me to actual job openings. And that is not what I am looking for. Thank you for your time.

I am a mortgage consultant and I find mortgages for people. People with credit scores of 480+. That is hard work you know. I do this in Canada and usually these people already have a home and some equity that we can leverage some security against. Most of these people understand their situation quite well and know they are just above bankruptcy. If these people would simply give up their vices for 1 year they would have some money and start to gain some ground in the financial department of their lives.

I've been an assistant to a mortgage broker for the past two years. I just turned 21 and I find that the real estate industry is very facinating yet very stressful at times. But I find that if I can become an underwriter that this will help me to become a mortgage loan consultant in the future or account executive. Any advise out there would be welcomed. Yes, I'm looking for a new job but I want one that will help me become a mortgage underwriter. I have a friend that was an assistant to a mortgage broker and managed to get a job at BofA where they trained her to become an underwriter without first having been a jr. processor---what luck. HELLLLP. I don't have many contacts. ;-)

I am desperate to stay in our school district for my kids sake. I am desperate to leave my situation away from my boyfriend, also; for my kids sake. I now have bad credit (most is 5+ yrs old) and just started a descent paying job that will become commission based. I feel that purchasing is smarter than renting. So, I wonder if one has to have good credit, job stability, and/or money down to purchase a home. Or which is most important? I am working on all of the above and obviously it takes time. So, I need to figure out the best first, second, third and so on, move.

HI there, I'm 22 years old, and currently in a dead end job, i left college because the last thing i wanted was to spend the rest of my life fixing computers. So I’m wondering if anyone out there knows what good, stable careers are, I’m a little scatter brained about this, every day I think of something new to be, recruitment consultant, mortgage advisor, financial advisor, management… I have no idea what I really want to do! All I know is, I want to have a safe and secure future, and I’m willing to study for it. I was going to be a freelance photographer but my eyes are starting to go, so this has put me into a bit of a frenzy to find a new career, if anyone has any good idea’s I’d love to hear them! I’ve also heard about lists that predict good careers for the future, if anyone has any of those that’d be great. Cheers!
