Notes to start off the week?! First off, there are some darned clever people around, and this ditty (thank you to John H. for sending) sung to “American Pie” and lamenting the loss of the refi biz, ranks right up there for quality! (“… I can’t remember if I cried, when I read my client’s DTI, now considered too damn high…”) Second, lumber prices have dropped as the mortgage market has slowed. Lumber now comes in at $829 per 1,000 board feet, down 39 percent from its 2022 high of $1,357 in March. (To keep your perspective, today’s price is still nowhere near pre-pandemic levels of $300 – $500; One can always increase timber cutting on Federal land or reduce tariffs on Canadian lumber.) For bad news, last week investors focused on inflation with Treasury yields climbing higher, and back-to-back inflation reports showed prices posting record advances.

Sure you haven’t seen them in person in a year, but they’re there. Or they have elderly parents. Heck, is “elderly” a bad word now? Seriously, I hope everyone reading this has a long and fruitful life, and when I hit “elderly,” I hope that I’m put into this alternative living village. Speaking of lifestyles and renting, do you wonder where some of the potential inventory is going? How ‘bout to new neighborhoods that builders are building just for renters! Just like we’ve all seen salmon heading upstream into bears’ maws, and wonder how any of them make it upstream, many wonder how a house or subdivision reaches completion. Remodeling a bathroom?
