Long-Term Solution for Fannie and Freddie Dilemma
If Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac collapse the result would be the wholesale destruction of the national mortgage system; a virtual halt to home sales because few local mortgages would be available; soaring interest rates because few loans would be available and a level of losses throughout the economy unseen since the Great Depression.

Where to find the best deals on foreclosures
Our analysis of nationwide foreclosure property sales in the last seven months shows that while some areas of the country documented a plethora of properties in foreclosure and big savings on foreclosure purchases, other areas reported relatively low foreclosure inventories and smaller average savings on foreclosure purchases. All five of the states with foreclosure markets most favorable to buyers and investors reported annual foreclosure rates of more than 1 percent of total households along with increasing foreclosures in 2005. It’s important for buyers and investors who are interested in the foreclosures market to carefully evaluate local market conditions before diving into foreclosures in any given area.

Local Market Perspective: Lake Havasu, Ariz.
I am seeing a rise in foreclosures and short sales far higher than May of 2007. My last seven sales have all been bank-owned homes, with over 171 contacts from my RealtyTrac source. Unfortunately, what folks hear in the news, for the most part, does not apply to Lake Havasu; with it being a second home community, people from out of state are not jumping on the buying wagon since their present homes, which are up for sale, are still not selling. With a population of fewer than 55,000, the Lake Havasu, Ariz., real estate market is still declining.

That transaction should include…A) Cash wiring instructions to the foreclosing bank (often by Western Union) B) A three-day right of recession, and a share purchase agreement, C) verifiable information of the person purchasing the property, including personal and financial references.

Fighting Foreclosure: Seven Ways to Dodge Delinquency
Reinstatement Prior to a foreclosure sale, borrowers have the right to reinstate a delinquent loan. Consult with a real estate attorney or an experienced real estate broker because reinstatement laws vary from state to state. For example, delinquent mortgage payments may be added to the loan balance or the borrower could be given more time to bring the late payment current. The sharp rise in foreclosure activity in recent months does not paint a pretty picture for distressed borrowers: 437,000 foreclosure filings were reported in the first quarter of this year, according to RealtyTrac .
