The news on mortgage rates has been coming hot and heavy lately. We had a one point drop over the last few weeks (we have seen some 5.25% rates!), and then there was a bunch of talk about a 4.5% rate for first time buyers.

Jackie Chan movie filming at Loma Colorado Rio Rancho
The Spy Next Door is a new movie under production starring Jackie Chan, George Lopez, & Billy Ray Cyrus. Being filmed right here in New Mexico, they are spending many days filming at Pulte Homes Loma Colorado New Homes subdivision in Rio Rancho.
