"As a top producer for Sterling Capital (in excess of 400 loans per year), the one thing I don't have time to worry about are rates and what the market is going to do.  With Market Alert, I know each morning, mid day and late afternoon what rates are going to do based on the page that I get from Market Alert.  I can then properly hedge the loans that I have that are floating to best suit my customer needs.  I let the customers make the decisions about the lock in; however, I can give them sound advice based on the information I get from Market Alert.  The weekly newsletter gives good information--which makes me sound very knowledgeable to my customers on the phone--it's all about service and this is a value added service that I provide to my customers."

"The Market Alert services have allowed me to save my customers countless thousands by providing up to the minute market information so that we can either take advantage of the lowest rates possible or prevent disaster by getting loans locked before a major upheaval in mortgage rates. This has equated to more business by referral from happy customers. Your weekly Viewpoint and Daily commentaries provide me the words to communicate to realtors and customers what the current interest rate environment may be.

Thank you Market Alert and Larry Baer for helping me provide outstanding service, make more money and generate more loans! I have recommended you to all of my friends in the business."

P. Forrester

"Larry Baer's Market Alert and the pager notification system have enabled me to read the market and anticipate rate movement for the last 9 years.  I have made a great deal of money and protected my clients from dramatic movements in the market thanks to this system.  I personally feel like any loan officer not using Larry Baer is "running naked in a field of thorns".

B. M. Winter
Branch Manager/Sr. Loan Officer
Jefferson Mortgage Services
Flower Mound, TX

"The only way I can describe your service is "Excellent". I am floored when I across people in our industry who do not have access to the information Market Alert provides.  Countless times our company has avoided substantial loss and gained thousands of dollars based on having up to the second mortgage bond pricing information. It would be foolish for any loan officer or mortgage broker not to subscribe to Market Alert. I know that the knowledge gained and money made will pay back exponentially to anyone of reasonable intelligence willing to invest in this service."

M. Lohmann
Frontier Mortgage
St. Louis, MO

"Market Alert on the internet has been a life saver for me.  I need to know up to the minute what the bond market is doing so that I can help my customers get the best rate possible.  Also knowing what the upcoming economic figures are helps me plan whether to float or lock my loans.  I could not be as effective as I am without Market Alert."

L. Snipes
Vice President
Ameriplex Mortgage
Fort Worth, TX

"I believe that market alert has enabled me to maximize my commissions per loan.   The information that is specifically tailored for pipeline
management has been invaluable to my day to day business as a mortgage originator.  I depend on the in depth market, and daily analysis to help me understand where interest rates are going.  The thing I like the most is that if I don't understand something or would like an explanation you can pick up the phone and call Larry direct.  I have been a happy customer since day one, and just couldn't imagine doing my job without this service!"

P. Mazzaferro
Western States Mortgage
Issaquah , WA

"Dear Larry Sir:
I'll never forget my first week using your amazing system, I locked loans
ahead of price changes saving me hundreds of dollars.  The second week I held up on locking because the market improved, in two weeks I gained $3,225 in extra commissions!  I keep your screen up throughout the day, over the years I have definitely increased my income tremendously...it's the best tool available to watch the market. In just two weeks I paid for several years of this incredible minute by minute update of the market.  I owe you many -thanks!"

C. Rusnak
Plaza Mortgage Home Services
Overland Park, KS

"To the prospective client of Market Alert:

I am a net branch manager for a national mortgage banker, and I have been using this service for just about a year. I manage just the pipeline for the branch, not much over a couple of $MM per month.  I suppose I make at least 1000% return on my monthly investment Larry's services (and that's on my own production alone!): I now require all locks to come through me; I honor the locks as submitted to me by my loan officers, and I lock them or float them subject to Larry's advice, making another 500% return on my investment! As further evidence of the accuracy of
Larry's service, I can regularly anticipate my company's midday price adjustments, either way.

This is the absolute truth about my experiences with Larry."

T. Wilson
Indianapolis Indiana

"Save money, subscribe, and be "alert" before the market changes by
subscribing with Market Alert.  Simply put - speaking from experience!"

R. Williams
Fairway Mortgage
Arlington, TX

"I have known Larry and used his service for over 12 years, to put it mildly he has made me at least an extra .25 point on my total production for as long. I am constantly being asked how I always manage to pick the day to lock by my clients and other loan officers, unfairly to Larry I usually just given them a wry smile. I can't imagine trying to manage my pipeline without Market Alert, it would be folly."

"I must say with the business I'm in, having used Market Alert has greatly helped me and my clients and keeping me on top and in touch with the Market and the sudden changes that can happen."

A.Nielson

"I have come to rely on the timeliness of the reports and analysis in locking my pipeline at the optimum time. A great tool for a busy Mortgage Broker."

W. D. McCall
MastersTouch Mortgage Corporation

"Market Alert is a great system- I have been in the mortgage business for over 20 years and without a doubt your system has made me thousands of dollars.  I am able to make my moves before many of the pricing desks of the lenders we use.  When I make a move I usually flood my lender with up to 50 loans at a time.  They call me to see what is going on.  You do the math 50 loans at a time and I save a quarter or even a half.  Big winner.  Thanks for everything!"

T. Scott
President
A.Anderson Scott Mortgage Group

"What I like other than the obvious where the system alerts me when the market is going the wrong direction, it gives me confidence to capture higher profits.  I am able to float a little longer and able to realize larger profits.  This system is a 'no brainer'. The cost of three months can be paid for easily on one loan

P. Leuken

are worth there weight in Gold!"

B. James Vice President

D.C. Aiken

"I have been a subscriber for 5 years. There are a number of benefits that I enjoy but most the economically beneficial has always been the intra-day market updates.  This has proved invaluable whether locking in profits when the market is deteriorating and before your lenders re-price or waiting to lock for improved pricing.

Other benefits include daily market commentary, schedule of upcoming
events that may influence the mortgage market, having Larry Baer
available for personal assistance."

Tim Estes

G. Burkett

"Let's face it, I have little knowledge of trends in the financial markets and I broke my crystal ball years ago.  A friend suggested that I try Larry's Baer's Market Alert.  Larry's predictions and commentary has allowed me to remove my foot from my mouth on many occasions.  It has not only enabled me to increase my confidence level with my clients and real estate brokers, but has allowed me to increase my revenues."

A. Mayhew
The Business Loan Center
Mooresville, N. C

"I have 14 loan officers in 9 locations to keep informed up to the minute of what is going on in the marketplace of mortgage loans. Putting the Market Alert screen on each loan officer's screen and updates on our cell phones has met that need and saved us many dollars, getting loans locked timely. Thanks Larry!"

A. Schmidt
President
Mortgage Centre

"No more rhetoric or "psycho babble" by a talking head playing both sides of the market and leaving you wondering what they just said.  Larry Baer has the fantastic ability to break down the current market conditions into terms you can understand.  He focuses on the section of the market place that effects your income and helps you determine not only when to "lock" but when to "float". There will never be a working version of a crystal ball but Larry is close.  Market Alert has been a tremendous addition to my business and I would highly recommend it to any Mortgage Professional."

"I have "Market Alert" up on my internet at the office every second of every day.  I use the information to manage my pipeline effectively and increase my bottom line.....Did you get that?  I use this info to make my company and myself more MONEY!  Here at Countrywide, we receive emails one hour prior to any rate changes.  But with Market Alert, I know about the rate changes long before I receive these notices.  With this site as my guide, I have been able to "hedge" my pipeline and outperform my competitors. I have recommended Market Alert to my Boss, my fellow Branch Managers, and, personally, I highly recommend their services to you.  It has had a very positive impact on my paycheck, and it will for yours as well!"

A. Wyngarden

"The very first day that I had Market Alert, the market was very volatile.  I had a couple of loans that I had not locked yet.  The Market Alert screen popped up and I immediately locked both of those loans.  Ten minutes after I had locked, our rates changed for the worse. I saved about $1700 by having Market Alert.  It definitely paid for itself that very day!"

M. LaBarreare

C. Midkiff
First Savings
Vienna, VA

"I have been a subscriber to Market Alert for 10 years.  Larry's insight and market guidance has served me well through the many market swings.  By following Larry's words of wisdom that "it is better to be out of the market and wishing you were in than being in and wishing you were out", and "no one ever went broke making a profit", I have been on the sidelines during most market turmoil, protecting my clients interests and my income.  The weekly Viewpoint and daily updates provide me the data I need to risk manage my pipeline.   I consider Larry Baer's Market Alert the best tool available for loan officers who are serious about managing their pipeline risk and subsequently, their income."

R. Veitenheimer
Ass't. Vice President
TexasBank Mortgage

 
"Dear Larry, I have been using your service since approximately 1996.  Initially, I was afraid of the monthly cost as my thought was that I would be spending money without a tangible return.  I soon realized that even though I had to pay the monthly expense, I was saving money when I was able to lock prior to a Lender inter-day pricing change or hold off on locking when Lender inter-day pricing was most likely to improve.  I was able to do this because of the messages that I receive when each time the bond market moves more than 8/32nds.  This information was sent directly to my pager and now is sent to my cell phone.  On a dollars and cents basis, merely a 1/4 point on a $100,000 mortgage is an additional $250 in revenue earned or not lost, whichever way you want to look at it.  It isn't hard to justify the expense if you are doing any production at all!
I have found that you have been very accurate with your bond predictions over the years, and have recently wondered if I should have contacted you about your stock predictions, given my dismal portfolio performance over the last two years!"
 
F. Wilkinson

Jacksonville, FL
