report of the national association of realtors but the sharp jump of sales will level also where are we headed? so now intthe direction of the housing market the ceo of quken those that is the third biggest lender in the country in the biggest on-line lender. great to have you here. write-offs about where are the rates headed? you said it would site now we have seen that so where do they go from here? >> it is a great question i wish i knew definitively but it has made statements causing rates to go up a little bit based on the tapering measures. if it continues to buy the bond i thought it could still -- stabilise as part of the ethics dray. there will be a little
2:02 am
latility by unc those rates may be they edged up over the next six months. gerr did the fed paul gold the taper talk? >> it is hard to say that. any time it telegraphs what they might do it will cause the market place that could be irrational to react. the process keeps rates artificially low so if they start stepping away from that it would cause them to be jittery. gerri: hundred bas points wi the big swing their anyone to refinance the mortgages and happy with that that leads me to the next question are people too late to buy or refinance right now? >> absolutely not.
2:03 am
said you have to step back to think historically how low their rates really is interest rates affordability at the all-time high prices are starting to come up in the housing market starts to yield is an excellent time to get a home but also a good time to refinance. there is still a lot of folks that are under water. is a very good time to be in the housing market. gerri: there has been a pretty dramatic rise of housing prices. there has beenncreasing 80 percent of cities the median home prices went up over a 12%. the feeling get this.
2:04 am
>> inventory is pretty tight right now so you see some pockets that they put the offers and to have a bidding war in a sir marketplace. so that is the driver of inventory. so maybe they would not move as sharply as they have but what is the economic picture happeng with jobs? what is happening with the housing market or the low prices? we have to keep a close eye with the economy. gerri: absolutely. that is critical. your b product is the adjustable rate mortgages. are these the same arms that got people into trouble? >> first of all, i don't know if they are a big product for us that we talk more about them but to ian's ur question, no.
2:05 am
arms to not get people in ouble but what got people in the past was a negative in mergers asia and the state's of fully underwritten amortizing five-year, seven year or tenure adjustable-rate mortgages a fantastic program for a lot of people. if people are there home between 5:00 a.m. seven years if you're going to be very short period of time i would be paid a premium to have the 30-year fixed-rate that could be higher when you could have the five or seven year fixed and adjustable-rate mortgage to allow you to have a loan payment or advertise more quickly so for the right person it kes sense with the adjustable rate product. gerri: it is different from that product the aged -- the edges have been taken off but you are the only people
2:06 am
wh off eartha mortgage that you call your own rates. had to do that? i could say i won that last 12 years into underwriting for me? >> it is the merger is a sham process. if it is a 50 or 25 year or third year you could literally have what you want some of b.c. people to over the last 24 months over the reef aid -- refinancing to cash in to bring mney to the table or shorten the term to build up equity faster. why go ack to the 30 year? that payment is something you can't afford etiquette's five years off your mortgage.
2:07 am
if you know, what the payment we have te opportunity to do that. >> that is less interest ople are very concerned whether corrected or anybody else that getting a loan is so difficult. why is it that people have a hard time to qualify for the mortgage? does that play a role? >> it is clearly more difficult to get a mortgage credit standards have been pretty similar but it is more difficult than it used to be. but what plays in to it that people don't talk about is the fact of governmental
2:08 am
agencies to sue lenders for things they have done in th past we have things happening that if i will underwrite the loans to take up the rest i will make sure i will underwrite correctly because i cannot afford aootball it could be a combination with the risk associated withhe residential mortgage industry. gerri: i have to ask you about detroit yo city -- company fond of the city you have a bright shiny new buildings so what does detroit we do to make it out of the bankruptcy? >> there's been a lot of great things hpening and we have been involved with that over e last two or three years to invest in the city. private investment is that
2:09 am
the all-time high. that is certainly difficul but it is long overdue that this happened so we have to address the problems of this city in the bankruptcy is difficult but it is giving us the opportunity to deal with legacy issues to come out the other side. we have to get through the bankruptcy process and that will take time but as we look at this we're bullish on the straight that they have great balance and great infrastructure to have our renaissance like it deserves gerri: great's information we appreciate you coming on. , back. >> my pleasure. i am happy to come back. gerri: a lot still to come
