ParticipantARM reported quarterly results yesterday. Profit before tax of £50.8M “from the sales of about 1.85 billion ARM technology-based chips, the highest ever shipped in a quarter.” That’s just over 4 cents per chip. Staggering, just staggering.

May 12, 2011 at 1:29 PM in reply to: GSE limits slated to drop (PLUS bonus question for mortgage experts) #694908Participant[quote=Rich Toscano]Right, nobody can argue that it’s a positive, but is it a significant negative?
[/quote]Hey, I can argue that it’s a positive.
Right now we have one continuous market up to about $900k.
When the hammer falls, we’ll have two markets. One up to $700k where anyone can buy with 20% down and borrow the rest at 4.5%; and the other above $700k, where you have to put 30% down and borrow at 5.5%.
This is bad for the second market (but it is not a big deal, because people selling houses above $700k have a lot of wherewithal), but it increases activity across the market for the rest of us.

ParticipantI don’t know what the commuter traffic is like on San Mateo bridge vs. Bay Bridge. Google tells me that Hayward to Brisbane is 26 miles and Montclair to Brisbane is 23 miles.
When you are looking at suspiciously cheap fixers, the general rule is that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is … For example, here’s a 3-bedroom fixer in Millbrae for 545k:

Why so cheap? You only need to zoom out the satellite view to find two good reasons.
