David Charles Allen, Village Properties Realtor and host of The HOP, reports that there were 53 pending sales and 56 new listings in Santa Barbara so there is not a lot of new inventory. Interest rates remained the same; 3% for conforming thirty-year fixed and 2.75% for non-conforming jumbo loans. David reminds listeners that these rates vary as a buyer’s credit history, down-payment, and other factors come in to play. He mentioned that there is a lender in Santa Barbara that is covering closing costs for buyers. As usual, David and his co-host, Patti Teel, close the show with their Pooches at Home segment as Patti expresses the joy and frustration of watching her 50 + pound grand dog, a golden retriever puppy named Riley.
