Deal or No Deal

Just One More Case … If you’ve ever seen the show “Deal or No Deal” you’ve likely noticed how common it is for contestants to be lured into taking additional risks to see if they can get through just one more case and keep their dream of big money alive. Sometimes it works out for them and they win big.

However, more times than not, the contestant pushes the envelope too far and ends up squandering a sure thing in the hopes of obtaining that alluring million-dollar prize. We have seen the same thing happen in the mortgage industry lately as clients continue to risk a sure thing in the hopes of saving $160 a month instead of the guaranteed $150 savings that is right in front of them. This desire to catch the market at its absolute lowest point and save that extra $10 a month can backfire and costs them thousands of dollars in potential savings. The truth is that none of us know “what case will be opened up next” and betting on the future can be a bit of a risky proposition considering the turbulent climate that surrounds us.

The reason I bring this is up is because my greatest fear is that you will miss out on the current opportunity that is before us. The turmoil in the economy has created a situation where we can likely reduce your monthly mortgage payment.
