Housing Market is En Fuego🔥

#TruVest #HouseHunting #HousingMarket #FICO

It has become even harder to purchase a house in the last 90 days. The information that is discussed in this article is outside typical challenges we will face when buying a house such as credit score, down payment, monthly payment hurdles, conventional loan versus FHA loan, and mortgage rates. But the focus of this post is to discuss the external influences of the housing market that we cannot control whatsoever.

Housing Starts (New Homes)- Decreased 6% in January to 1.580 million units. Existing home inventories fell 16.4% or 1.1M homes (1.9 months worth of homes). Record-setting low since 1999.

Soaring Lumber Prices- Prices have tripled in the last 90 days to where the price of 1,000 board feet peaked at $1,004.90. For a 1,000 square foot home, you would need 6,300 board feet to complete. That would be just $60,000 to frame your home.

Compared to just 4 short months ago it would have cost you $30,000 or $491 per 1,000 board feet. 100% increase in 4 short months. And it would add an additional 30% to the sales price of a $100,000 home.

A High Credit Score Does NOT = Financial Success‼️

#FICOscore #CreditBureaus #CreditScore

Why is the FICO score formula not published? Because then all of us would know how to get around the FICO credit system, but there is a better way to increase your FICO score...And that is to be debt-free!

Did you know that 35% of your credit score consists of the length of your credit history? The credit bureaus are looking at your debt load and factoring these dollar amounts into your credit rating.

The next is 30% is based upon your debt level. So the amount of debt that you're carrying. So guess what, the more debt you carry, the better your FICO score gets. Well, that also has a problem on the other side. And I'll just digress really quick. When your debt usage is high and you try to go get a mortgage or another line of credit. They look at a thing called DTI debt to income ratio. Well, you can't keep on strapping on more debt and expect to get more. So look where that takes you. That takes you down a path of staying in debt.

Why Money Behaviors Cannot Be Taught‼️

It's Personal!

Your personal experiences with money are more biased towards how you think the world works!

Some lessons have to be experienced before they can be understood.

Being Debt Free = Freedom‼️🎉

Why use a credit card when you can use your debit card?

20 years ago there could be a small chance to keep a credit card, but today you can select either credit or debit with your debit card.

So, when you go to rent a car...GUESS what....You can rent a car with your debit card! https://www.enterprise.com/.../faqs/forms-of-payment.html

And the other one we hear all the time.....I like using my credit card so I earn frequent flier miles

2020 was a year that we all want to move on from...But last year alone there were 1 Trillion frequent flier miles that were lost. With that many miles lost do you think all those people paid off their balances each month?

Why continue to feed the system that leaves you living paycheck to paycheck!

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?

Life Changes When You Find Your Voice‼️

I have been trying to find my voice for our Vlog/Podcast. And I have danced around many topics, but the one I NEVER landed on was DEBT!

DID YOU KNOW: 39% of Americans cannot cover a $400 Emergency

DID YOU KNOW: 78% of people live paycheck to paycheck
Debt is not part of the mainstream media, nor do we really have open conversations about it.

Debt creates a very toxic relationship not just in your personal life, but also in your work life.

Debt will be the focus of this Vlog/Podcast going forward!
I am going to help you and others break your toxic relationship with debt!

🏌🏼‍♂️Why Life and Business are Like Golf🏌🏼‍♂️

🏌🏼‍♂️Why Life and Business are Like Golf!🏌🏼‍♂️

Yes, like golf!

In life and business, we want to drive right down the middle of the fairway.

Anything that veers us off the fairway like a hook or slice becomes a problem for us!

And if we end up in the rough or sand trap or even worse out of bounds it could throw you off your game off!

So, don't let a hook or slice throw you off your game off! Shake off your last swing, get yourself back to the fairway and on the green! And you will have a chance at par each and every time!

Have a great Monday! Stay positive!
