As more Alt-A loans go bad, the jump in wishing price total dollar volume will likely be disproportionately larger than the jump in # of CFC's REOs because the Alt-A loans are much larger in size than subprime.<BR/><BR/>PDXrenterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8528128228771538436.post-19147902840029928872007-03-14T01:18:00.000-05:002007-03-14T01:18:00.000-05:00Great source.You should access public records or z...Great source.<BR/><BR/>You should access public records or zillow to find out what is the difference between "wishing price" and actual sale price.<BR/><BR/>At that point you can tally-up CFC loses.<BR/><BR/>ON CNBC the CEO already build his defense of why his CFC is going under:<BR/><BR/>It is all those aggressive sub-prime lenders who cut prices. Now they are falling apart and sub-prime borrower can not get a loan to pay the high price of homes.<BR/><BR/>Because the sub-prime FTHB is gone no one moves up and the whole market freeze up.<BR/><BR/>There is a different explanation:<BR/><BR/>Both CFC and NEW have been giving "no docs" stated income loans. These Hugh loans allowed people to overbid on homes way beyond what they can afford.<BR/><BR/>The problems in every economic situation is prices. When real-estate prices go too high the market collapses.<BR/><BR/>The ONLY ONLY difference between home prices to any other inflation was that banks such as CFC allowed people to get a HELOC mortgaging their future and their homes . The HELOC allowed people to consume based on using their homes as ATMs instead of asking for better wages.<BR/><BR/>The Fed supported all that with low interest rates because the Fed's job is to keep wages low.<BR/><BR/>But time comes when reality sets in: People can not afford such home prices. Even CFC and the Fed can not give people 1%-2% interest loans to keep the home prices in the sky. As ARM adjustments continue the whole house of cards will come down CFC included.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8528128228771538436.post-20456500822765973382007-03-13T12:26:00.000-05:002007-03-13T12:26:00.000-05:00Nice.
