Childhood neighbors ready to sell home but buyer doesn’t want to break the bank with high interest rates
Published Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:25:10 GMT
Q: We are waiting for interest rates to go down before we purchase a home. We have a property in mind. However, on last night’s news, the report said two more interest rate hikes would occur this year.My parents’ longtime neighbors have passed away. Their home was in a trust. The kids I grew up with have inherited the property. The eldest two adult kids now supervise the estate. These co-successor trustees have agreed to sell their family home to us. All adult siblings agree. They know we are waiting for interest rate improvement. But next year’s lower interest rate is too far away. One of the adult siblings wants a quick sale. Since Bay Area home prices are so high, the slightest interest rate change can help or hurt. How can we keep a “hold” on this Silicon Valley property near my parents without breaking the bank? A: We are in a historic housing-constrained market. The common belief is that lower mortgage rates mean more properties for sale. That is only sometimes true.

Published Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:25:10 GMT
Everything about Aaron Judge says big, especially his absence.During TBS’ coverage of Yankees-Mets Tuesday night, Brian Anderson and Jeff Francoeur said they had never seen one player — Judge — influence a team to this degree. The words were accompanied by numbers that proved a point.They could have added another factor — entertainment. Without Judge, the product the Yankees put on the field is void of glitz; bland as a bowl of mush. Outside of Gerrit Cole, there’s no one enticing Yankees loyalists to pay extra money to see the Judge-less Bombers play on a streaming service.What does it say about the state of affairs when the Yankees most recent signature video is of John Sterling getting conked on the head by a foul ball in the radio booth?Without Judge, the Yankees pursuit of Tampa Bay, or a wild card spot, is not all that compelling. Now, until Judge returns, the most entertaining thing about the Yankees is hearing Valley of the Stupid Gasbags regurg...Some Democrats are already warning of a government shutdown as budget battle with GOP takes shape
Published Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:25:10 GMT
WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s bid to appease Republican hard-liners and get the House moving again after a recent party rebellion on the floor has some Democrats warning of a difficult road ahead when it comes to passing legislation that will keep the government running. Republicans teed up votes this past week on guns and on censuring one of former President Donald Trump’s most prominent critics, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif. Those votes helped get the House moving again, though the latter effort failed, with Schiff helped by some 20 Republicans. The most consequential move of the week, however, was an announcement from GOP leadership that arrived with little fanfare. Republicans said they plan to pursue appropriations bills, which fund government programs and agencies, with less spending than the top-line numbers they agreed to in a deal with the White House last month. That compromise avoided what would have been an unprecedented federal default.McCarthy arg...Biden’s rally with union workers will mark first big event of his 2024 campaign

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden plans to promote his pro-labor record Saturday at his first major political rally since he formalized his reelection campaign, appearing alongside union members to make the case that his economic agenda is boosting the middle class. His campaign says Biden, who will appear at the Philadelphia Convention Center, will “lay out the core principles of his economic message.” The president also intends to talk about how a sweeping climate, tax and health care package he signed into law last year has cut the cost of prescription drugs and lowered insurance premiums. It’s part of his administration’s focus on his achievements during his first two years in office — the centerpiece argument for a second term.Several of the nation’s most powerful unions — including the AFL-CIO, American Federation of Teachers and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees — officially endorsed Biden’s campaign on Friday. ...Latest news
