Huge btc short position in market right now, I expect a lot of liquidity issues to come to light soon. Bitcoin should end up below 30k and stay there as new resistance soon.

Have anyone negotiated their rates with wells? I wanted to use wells but another lender of giving me a better rate.

Thanks!

Hello, I am going crazy. I am supposed to close on a house on Tuesday. The buyer did not perform an inspection and the lender did not order an appraisal.

I don’t have a closing time yet, just the date. My realtor reached to the lender and have no heard back.
