The big headlines of the past week had everything to do with job losses…and some surprising twists within the monthly Jobs Report that arrived on Friday, and caused home loan rates to worsen yet once again. Despite their efforts to improve early in the week, Bonds and rates ended the week .375% to .5% worse than where they began.
Friday’s Jobs Report showed that 345,000 jobs were lost in May, far better than expectations for 520,000 jobs lost. And adding to the positive tone were revisions to the two prior months, showing 82,000 fewer jobs lost than previously reported. So all in all, about 260,000 fewer jobs lost than had been forecast. But let’s take a closer look.
Also, I received an email from the Washington County Board of Realtors regarding the city of St. George’s announcement that its Fiscal Year 2009-10 funding allocation for the Down Payment Assistance Program (DPAP) will be in place this July. As such they are now accepting applications for participation in the program. For more information go to www.SaintGeorgeHomes.net
