Fed No Longer Patiently Waiting to Hike Rates
Fed No Longer Patiently Waiting to Hike Rates By Ryan Dosen The Federal Reserve is no longer assuring the public and markets that it will be “patient” in raising interest rates. Fed Chair Janet Yellen did not give us an exact time frame for the rate hikes, but she did open the door for rates moving upward as early as June of this year. Many experts do not foresee rate hikes coming in June, but they are coming. The question is: when? Neither Patient Nor Impatient Up until its most recent announcement regarding U.S. monetary policy, the Fed’s message was that it was going to be “patient” in raising the federal funds rate, which still sits in the current 0 to ¼ percent target range. The federal funds rate is the interest rate at which a depository institution/bank lends funds maintained at the Federal Reserve to another depository institution overnight. When the Fed raises the cost for banks to borrow money, the interest rates banks’ customers will pay will follow suit. In this week’s announcement, the Fed notably removed its pledge to be “patient” in raising rates. However, Yellen stated that “just because we removed the word ‘patient’ from the statement doesn’t mean that we are going to be impatient.” Yellen further stated that the Fed’s “modification of the forward guidance should not be read as indicating that the committee has decided on the timing of the initial increase in the target range for the federal funds rate.” She also said that “this change does not mean that an increase will necessarily occur in June. Although, we can’t rule...
Whispers of a Shifting Housing Market
Whispers of a Shifting Housing Market By Ryan Dosen It always starts small. “The reality, I believe, is that all change starts small. The big picture is just too unwieldy, too incomprehensible and seemingly immovable. But give us something individual, quantifiable and personalize-able and, suddenly, our perspective shifts to the one.” The words of Mick Ebeling, a well-known entrepreneur and TED speaker, probably centered on the founding principles of his Not Impossible Foundation—an organization that develops creative solutions to help overcome difficult or seemingly-impossible real world problems. Ebeling’s words were not directed at the real world problem of the well-deserved general fear of buying real estate in the wake of the Great Recession and market collapse of the 2000s. Indeed, after the collapse, most of us looked back with 20/20 hindsight, shaking our heads at the foolish practices of “no-doc” lending, borrowing with negative amortization schedules, and even camping out to buy homes sight unseen. Those days were like the Wild West. Boy, oh boy. Crazy times, I tell you. We’ll be telling our kids, and they’ll be telling their kids about those days for years to come. We’ll never see anything like that again in our lifetimes…. Right? Starting Again, With a Whisper News of it has barely risen to the level of a whisper, but just a few short years after the market collapse of the 2000s, we are already starting to see signs of the seemingly incomprehensible. The National Association of Realtors reported this week that home buyers are camping out again to buy new homes, particularly in Sun Belt areas like Phoenix and Las Vegas....
Home Remodeling Projects: Best Bets vs Foolish Flops
Home Remodeling Projects: Best Bets vs Foolish Flops By Ryan Dosen When it comes to home improvements, all projects are not created equally—especially when you consider your projected return-on-investment. Spring is the time of year when many of us will consider either moving or improving our existing home. To help guide us in the wise disposition of our precious dollars, Remodeling Magazine just released its “2015 Cost vs Value Report.” The Report “compares average cost for 36 popular remodeling projects with the value those projects retain at resale in 102 markets.” Some projects will return 80 percent or more of your initial investment; other projects may not even return half of your investment. To help clear the fog, let’s take a look at the best and worst return-on-investment home remodeling projects. Best Bet: Entry Door Replacement (Steel) Remodeling Magazine’s highest rated return-on-investment home improvement was the replacement of your entry door with a new 20-gauge steel unit, including clear dual-pan half-glass panel, jambs, and aluminum threshold with composite stop. This was the only project that actually was estimated to return more than the initial investment (cost recouped: 101.8 percent). The average job cost for this project was listed at $1,230. Foolish Flop: Sunroom Addition The lowest return-on-investment project analyzed by Remodeling Magazine was the addition of a sunroom. The addition of a sunroom, estimated to cost around $75,000, was priced out assuming the construction of a 200-square-foot build-out with 10 large aluminum-clad venting skylights and movable shades. Netting only a 48.5 percent return-on-investment, this renovation would only be expected to increase your home’s value by around $36,000. Best...Connect with Ryan Dosen on Social Media
