Jobless Homeowners Set for $1 Billion in Aid
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703615104575329130832886238.html?mod=WSJ_article_MoreIn
Right—Congress is going to fix the lending.
Like fix is for the leaner to convert the defective non-preforming loans to good non-preforming loans.
It will be a chance to put in legit loan documentation (income and appraisals) to borrow 10x yearly income for a 3.5% down loan. Likely hood of FC, high. But it stated and liability is assumed by the taxpayers this round. In other word, the new loans will be legit—just non-preforming.
Quickly buy, it less than $400 per square foot. You’ll be priced out of the market. Rates will never be this low.
Fannie Mae to Charge Strategic Defaulters, for Everything
http://www.housingwire.com/2010/06/25/fannie-mae-to-charge-strategic-defaulters-for-everything?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+housingwire/uOVI+(HousingWire)
This is outrageous. There should be no difference among strategic defaulters, casual defaulters, or other type of defaults. A default is a default.
If banks allow some certain defaulters to go free, shouldn’t that be a excuse for a lawsuit to discharge the targeted defaulters from any further obligations?
On the lighter side, a T-shirt related to one of IRs graphics above:
Death Star: Too Big to Fail Shirt

$385 / square foot—as an outsider, it seems the Irvine is still way overpriced. With the California economy, how can there be enough buyers with that kind of financial horsepower to afford these things?
