Court Rules, Feds can seize half a house.

No surprise there, there is no chance of a rate change before late in the fourth quarter and only a small chance then.
But, change is on the horizon.
Mortgage rates are starting to inch upwards. That is no surprise to readers of this blog, my newsletters and especially Field Guide members but it seems to be [...]
[The day before y]esterday morning I talked about what investors could learn from Casey Serin. No, not as in would he be a good mentor because I don’t think he would.
