Remember NAS Miramar was closed in the early 90’s and MCAS Miramar was opened in 1997. So San Diego had a major employer move-in in 1997.

What would happen if all those anti-Miramar people get their way?

I walked Parkway Plaza again, and now there are 15 vacant storefronts. There is also a going out of business sale at Suncoast and a calendar store that will surely be gone in February.

Looks like my guess of 15 vacant storefronts is too low. I think there will be 18 or 19 vacant storefronts by February. There will also be many vacant kiosks, but it looks like they got greedy and added too many of those. I think about 1/3 of the jumbo kiosks are vacant.

Oh, my original post was to counter the propaganda presented by a mortgage broker. I believe that if most people get a few different stories most will look for the facts, and not just listen to the guy looking for his commission. Too bad so many only got their mortgage broker’s propaganda over the last 5 years.

Well, I am technically right. There is not PMI on FHA loans; there is FHA mortgage insurance. Which is cheaper than PMI for people that only have 3% down payments. Yes, with 10% or 15% equity PMI is cheaper than FHA insurance. But the fact is that most mortgage brokers do not know or choose to not tell their “victims” of the best loan in many cases. Plus not many have 10% to buy a house with that do not come to this blog. Many here actually have 20%(Crazy housing bubble people 😉 ).

I personally think a 3% down payment is an awful idea, but it is better than a 0% down payment.

And where did 50% come from?

Oh, and the minimum is 1.25% not 1.75%: http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/hudclips/letters/mortgagee/files/08-16ml.doc
