First Time Buyers Guide By : Kate Tee-11606 Options for the first time buyers and what mortgage they can look at. Home Mortgage Borrowers Are Not That Sophisticated By : Alex Gwen Thomson When lenders develop new loan programs, they assume borrowers are sophisticated enough to understand the product and disciplined enough to use them properly. Both assumptions are bad, and these bad assumptions caused lenders and investors to lose a great deal of money during the Great Housing Bubble. Predatory Lending in the Housing Bubble - Were You a Victim? By : Alex Gwen Thomson The most egregious examples of predatory lending occurred when interest-only loan products where offered to subprime borrowers whose income only qualified them to make the initial minimum payment (assuming the borrower actually had this income). This loan program was commonly known as the two-twenty-eight (2/28). It has a low fixed payment for the first two years, then the interest rate and payment would reset to a much higher value on a fully amortized schedule for the remaining 28 years. Self Employed Mortgage Guide By : Kate Tee-11606 In the past, finance has been a fairly conservative business and the self-employed have had a relatively harder time finding the mortgage to suit them.

Mortgage Rates Move Up Slightly By : dane-14388 This article looks at recent changes in mortgage interest rates. What is the Option ARM Payment Rate? By : Alex Gwen Thomson A negative amortization loan is any loan where the monthly payment does not cover the monthly interest expense. Interest-only or conventionally amortizing loans do not have this feature, and the monthly payments are based on the interest rate charged and/or the duration of the amortization schedule. Since the negative amortization loan breaks down this traditional relationship, there is a completely separate rate calculated for the minimum payment amount. Do You Understand the Three Types Of Loans - Conventional, Interest-Only, and Negative Amortization? By : Alex Gwen Thomson There are 3 main categories of loans: Conventional, Interest-Only, and Negative Amortization.

Getting Your Home Mortgage Online By : JohnJames If nothing else, you ought to be really grateful that you were born in this era of technological advancement re the Internet and other IT paraphernalia.

Finance is not the answer. We all want affordable housing. There are numerous government programs designed to provide low-cost rental and ownership properties to people in all walks of life. Lenders, builders, realtors and buyers all benefit from affordable housing because affordability means an increase in transaction volumes and more money into the pockets of those dependant on the real estate market. Which Debts Could Lose You Your Home? By : Nicholas Hunt In today's economy millions are struggling with severe debt problems. Keeping a roof over your head is vital, so you need to concentrate efforts on keeping up with the debts that could result in foreclosure if they stay unpaid. Credit Crunch - Why Did We Have It? By : Alex Gwen Thomson In 2007, the financial markets were abuzz with talk of a "credit crunch." It was portrayed as some unusual and unpredictable outside force like an asteroid impact or a cold winter storm. However, it was not unexpected, and it was not caused by any outside force. The credit crunch began because borrowers were unable to make payments on the loans they were given. When lenders started losing money, they stopped lending money: a credit crunch. Housing Bubble Credit Expansion - Credit Inflated the Housing Bubble By : Alex Gwen Thomson The Great Housing Bubble was inflated by a massive expansion of credit and the influx of capital into residential mortgages. The expansion of credit took four forms: lower interest rates, lowering or eliminating qualification requirements, different amortization methods, and higher allowable debt-to-income ratios. Future Loan Terms and Residential Real Estate Markets By : Alex Gwen Thomson One of the primary mechanisms for inflating the Great Housing Bubble was the widespread use of exotic loan terms including interest-only and negative-amortization adjustable rate mortgages. The appeal of interest-only and negative-amortization loans is the lower payments they offer, or their ability to finance larger sums of money with the same payment. These loan terms are unstable, and they may not be offered to future buyers. If these loan programs were eliminated, the financing sums would decline, and home prices would decline along with them. Mortgage Interest Rates and House Prices By : Alex Gwen Thomson Mortgage interest rates are determined in an open market and are subject to the forces of supply and demand. These rates are the sum of three main components: riskless rate of return, risk premium, and inflation expectation. The Great Housing Bubble was characterized by historic lows in the federal funds rate, risk premiums and inflation expectations which resulted in the very low mortgage interest rates. These low mortgage interest rates allowed people to finance large sums of money, and these larger bids helped inflate the housing bubble. Home Reversion Plan the Liquid Value to your Solid Asset By : raffick4 marday4 How to Extract the Most Out of a Lifetime Mortgage A Lifetime mortgage compared with other equity schemes is favorable in that you can make use of the money before the maturity date. You are not required to make periodic payments until the plan ends; thereby allowing you to maximize the money before you need to pay it back. If you are thinking of applying for a lifetime mortgage, one tip you must consider is investing the money in a profitable investment. In this process, you can multiply the proceeds and get the most out of your lifetime mortgage. Since equity schemes offer an affordable interest rate, you have a higher chance of repaying your debt even after the interest charges are added. Financial Innovation is a Fallacy By : Alex Gwen Thomson When the lending industry developed exotic loan products, they touted them as "innovation," and they sold these toxins far and wide. Since these loans achieved the highest default rates ever recorded, it is apparent the "innovations" of the bubble rally were not entirely successful. The cutting edge is sharp. Innovators often pay a heavy price for attempts at advancement. Sometimes these advances lead to quantum leaps in human knowledge and understanding. Sometimes the time, effort, and money are merely thrown into the abyss. The financial innovations of the Great Housing Bubble are of the latter category. Mortgage Equity Withdrawal - Are Americans Addicted to It? By : Alex Gwen Thomson Much of the money homeowners borrowed fueled consumer spending and reinforced poor financial management techniques. It was common during the bubble rally for people to run up enormous credit card bills then refinance every year and pay them off. It is foolish enough to finance consumer spending, but it is even more foolish to pay for this spending over the 30-year term of a typical mortgage. The consumptive value fades quickly, but the debt endures for a very long time. Judicial and Non-Judicial Foreclosure - What Is the Difference? By : Alex Gwen Thomson When a borrower cannot repay a loan, the lender may or may not be able to sue the borrower to collect any shortfall. The key difference is whether or not the loan is classified as a recourse loan or a non-recourse loan. If the loan is recourse, meaning the lender can go after any shortfall, the lender still must go through a judicial foreclosure in order to collect the deficiency. Home Improvements Loans Are a Bad Idea By : Alex Gwen Thomson Most homeowners do not save money for major improvements and required maintenance, and these homeowners often take out home equity lines of credit as a method of mortgage equity withdrawal to fund home improvement projects. The logic here is that renovations improve the property so an increase in property value offsets the additional debt. This is a bad idea. Mortgage Equity Withdrawal is a Cultural Pathology By : Alex Gwen Thomson Mortgage Equity Withdrawal or MEW is the process of obtaining cash through refinancing residential real estate using the accumulated equity as collateral for the loan. This is a cultural pathology because it is not sustainable. Many people became addicted to using their houses as an ATM machine, and when prices fell, these people lost their homes in foreclosure. Downpayments Are Back! What Happened to 100% Financing? By : Alex Gwen Thomson Downpayments are required again thanks to the credit crunch. Many people thought 100% financing would be made available forever. They were mistaken. One-hundred percent financing will never return because it exposes lenders to too much risk. Stated-Income Loans - How Common Were They? By : Alex Gwen Thomson One unique phenomenon of the Great Housing Bubble was the utilization of stated-income loans, also known as "liar loans" because most people were not truthful when stating their income. When house prices were going up, greed motivated many people to buy homes to capture appreciation. Actually having the income to qualify for a loan was a limitation to participating in the financial mania. Stated-income loan programs eliminated this barrier and allowed people to borrow as much as they wanted without concern for home much money they made to cover the payments. Pick-a-Pay Option ARM Loans - What Are They? By : Alex Gwen Thomson The Negative Amortization mortgage (aka, Option ARM or Neg Am) is the riskiest loan imaginable. It has all the risks of an interest-only, adjustable-rate mortgage, but with the added risk of an increasing loan balance. Using this loan, there is the risk of not being able to make the payment at reset, and the borrower is much more at risk of being denied for refinancing because the loan balance can easily exceed the house value. In either case, the home will fall into foreclosure. The Interest-Only, Adjustable-Rate Mortgage is Very Risky By : Alex Gwen Thomson The interest-only, adjustable-rate mortgage (IO ARM) became popular early in the Great Housing Bubble. When fixed-rate mortgage payments were too large for buyers to afford, they turned to IO ARMs as an affordability product. Unfortunately, these mortgage products are not stable because at some point, payments increase, and the borrowers often default. Conventional 30-Year Amortizing Mortgage - Why use It? By : Alex Gwen Thomson A fixed-rate conventionally-amortized mortgage is the least risky kind of mortgage obligation. If borrowers can make their payment, a payment that will not change over time, they can keep their home. At the end of a predefined term, the original funds have been paid in full, and the loan is discharged. Apply Equity Mortgage Release to Keep a Comfortable Dotage Stage By : raffick4 marday4 Put Your House in Home Equity Mortgage and Invest the Proceeds You might be wondering what a home equity mortgage is when there are similar mortgages being offered by different companies offering such services. From the lifetime mortgage to home reversion plan, the option is slowly growing. In essence, different homeowners have diverse needs for immediate financing. Whatever the reason as long as you can provide an equity, such as the home, then you are likely to get the amount you need.
