Financial Advice For A Friend


The Saltman

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I have some questions for any loan or mortgage officers out there for a friend that needs some help. Here is the scenario:

He has a credit score of 623...not very good.

His Yearly household income is 83,000

His Mortgage is at 233,000 and interest rate is at 6.25% with his home value at 328,000

His Credit Card Debt is 20000.

SO with all that in mind is there a possible way for him to refinance and consolidate this debt or is his credit score too low to do any of these things?

thanks for your help guys.

Get a HELOC for the remaining $95,000 of your equity and go buy a boat, you deserve it.

may as well right...I mean...if you are going to be broke, you may as well have as much fun as possible first!

Wow, how in the world can someone afford a $233,000 mortgage while carrying $20K in credit card debt on a household income of $83,000? Guess that is why you are probably asking the question......

Not sure if a lower interet rate with that kind of credit score and that much cc debt is possible or not.. I am curious how the $100K in equity affects it though.....as mentioned, pm Dimbee.

at the time of the mortgage he had a better paying job and could show better income to get the loan.

Is 623 his middle FICO score? If so, he can get a loan. He is below 80% Loan To Value. Depending on what are the minimum required payments for his debt, I don't think his Debt To Income ratio will be out of whack. It doesn't hurt for him to at least do some investigating. The 10 year Treasury Bond Yield is still ridiculously low, as are rates. Your friend can easily drop their interest rate by 1 point and more on a 30 year fixed.

623 is his equifax score...i dont have any more info beyond that. I think his question is if he can get a refi to be able to add the credit card balances to his mortgage and refi for a better interest rate all at the same time.

    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
    • Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly. 
    • Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.
