Question by Kyle: Federal Interest rate vs. Home Mortgage Rates?
So when the rate is cut how long does it take to reflect the cut for home mortgage rates? I’m thinking about buying a house and I just heard the federal interest rate is being cut to 1% (historic low). When will home mortgage rates reflect this cut? How low on average in % will they go (if its possible to know)?

When they say the feds cut the rate they are not talking about home loan rates. They mean short term loans like cars loans, prescription ed credit cards and such. The mortgage loans are based off of the 30 year treasury bond.. which is why you don’t necessarily see those rates come down when the fed ‘cuts’ the rate.
hope this helps.

Question by Jake: Does FHA mortgage insurance make payments if I lose my job?
My brother-in-law lost his job a few months ago and he said his mortgage insurance paid his mortgage and gave him some extra money until he got a new job.
I have an FHA loan and I want to know if I can do the same thing.
If I can, view who do I talk to about it?
If not, is there anything else I can do until I get a job?
p.s. I have already filed for unemployment.

FHA doesn’t provide this special insurance for paying mortgage when you lose your job, or suffer an accident. This kind of Insurance must be purchased in advance of any misfortune, and is always the option of any homeowner.
