How to Prepare for Year-End-Investor Push for Tax Write-Offs

Description

Caeli Ridge pre-recorded this episode on 10/17/2023

Caeli dives into how to prepare for the year-end closings and investor pushes for tax write-offs.

98% of our industry is only focused on non-owner-occupied transactions.

For non-owner-occupied transactions, the end of the year is the slowest but for investors, it is the busiest time of year because everyone is cramming to get year-end tax credits.

Closing transactions earlier is key but starting now is not too late. Make sure you have all the necessary documents ready and available.

Housing Sales Crash, Mortgage Rate Prediction with Caeli Ridge and Keith Weinhold

Caeli'e interview begins at the Chapter Marker of 11:30

A housing crash is upon us. But it may not be the kind of crash that you think. I explain what this sales crash means to the housing market's future.

Caeli Ridge, President of Ridge Lending Group, joins us. She gives an exact prediction about where and when mortgage interest rates will peak.

37% of homeowners have no mortgage at all. Among those with a mortgage, 85% have an interest rate under 5% per Redfin. They don’t want to sell and give up their rate, constraining supply.

It’s a nationwide lock-in effect.

A housing PRICE crash is not expected. Existing homeowners can afford their mortgages and have record equity. This is reflected in the low delinquency rate.

The average age of first-time home buyers hit a record 36.

Caeli Ridge tells you how to get a lower mortgage interest rate with different loan types.

Investors keep their loans for an average of 5-6 years.

Ridge offers mortgage loans specifically for investors: plain fixed rates, non-recourse, DSCR, asset depletion, bridge loans, commercial loans, cross-collateralization of residential properties, and the All-In-One Loan, which operates like a first lien HELOC.

See how much interest you save with the All-In-One Loan interactive simulator here: https://ridgelendinggroup.com/aio-loans/

Caeli sees lots of appraisals. They’ve all been coming in “on-value”.

When it comes to higher mortgage rates, get used to it. The long-term average is 7.7%.

Ridge Lending is where I get loans for my own properties. You can use them too. Start at RidgeLendingGroup.com or (855) 747-4343.

Certified Power Buyer® and Certified Power Buyer Association® world premier

Yesterday was an amazing day. Ridge Lending Group has launched the world's first Certified Power Buyer® program for real estate investors. Along side t our clients, we have established the world's first Certified Power Buyer Association®. This new program merges decades of experience, the newest technologies, planning, resources, and partners with inventory ready and available to members of the association.

This is different than any other offering available as it is a personalized long-term relationship and planning cooperative between real estate investors, a lender with a national footprint, and sources of real estate inventory across the entire country. We are confident that the levels of service, communication, and fulfillment are unmatched in the marketplace.

We believe that transactional relationships can work great for an owner-occupied or even a second home purchase. When it comes to real estate investing, however, we have found that the most successful outcomes are the result of solid planning, along with a team and the resources to support the plan. That is what the Certified Power Buyer Association® is all about.

If you are interested in joining the association and becoming a Certified Power Buyer®, please visit our website for more in formation and to take the next steps https://www.ridgelendinggroup.com/certified-power-buyer/

Introduction to the Ridge Lending Group Community Live Events

These live weekly kind of educational platforms are going to, I hope, adds some great value to you all. We're very interested in feedback. So first and foremost, as our first kind of stab at this, I would like to hear from each of you on this live recording today.

I'm going to give you just the quick 30,000 foot view about Ridge, who we are as a company, what it is that we do. Some of you have heard this sound bite before, so I hate the idea of being redundant, but for everybody else, this is what we're about.

We are a second generation company. We focus a large amount of our attention on the non-owner-occupied individual residential real estate investor. We do commercial as well, but residential is most of what occupies our day to day.

We are licensed nationwide, so we have a nice, broad footprint. There are four states that are an exception to that statement. We are not in Alaska, North Dakota, New York or Vermont. Pretty sure it's Vermont. Otherwise, we're going to be everywhere

I am a fellow real estate investor. I've held many, many properties all over the United States, so I hope that that unique perspective adds some credibility to who we are and what we deliver for our investor clients.

It's really about teaching our clients how to get to that next level, and that goes back into the optimization.

We will find a way in which to educate you, to get you to qualify, right? If there's some wood that we have to cut upfront, we're able to lay it out, provide you with the information so that you have the tools to then get back in the saddle when the time comes.

FHA Loan Limits for 2022

FHA - the Federal Housing Administration - www.HUD.gov - has increased the loan limits for 2022.

Hi again, everyone. Caeli here. Happy New Year to you, all. I just finished recording a video announcing the new conforming agency, a.k.a. Fannie/Freddie loan limits. I am now going to provide the FHA not to be confused with Fannie/Freddie loan limits as a quick distinction.

FHA and VA and USDA does "Govvie" as we call them in our industry, loan products only apply to owner occupied or primary residence transactions. And as we saw some increase to the conforming loan limits as it applied to Fannie/Freddie.
As such, FHA has followed suit. So I have those numbers for you. The old FHA County loan limit baseline was at $365,362. I've got my cheat sheet over here. The new conforming loan limit for FHA is now $420,680.
Just like the Fannie/Freddie loans, FHA does have high cost areas. Those are going to be Hawaii, California, Alaska, Connecticut, places like that. And those high cost areas are going to be for single family residence. All of what I've said so far is for single family residence.

The oldest $822,375, the new FHA high cost area loan limit is $970,800. Hopefully this is helpful to you. Those of you are looking to utilize FHA for your owner occupied transactions. We look forward to hearing from you and serving all of your lending needs.

Thanks for listening.

Caeli Ridge
