• Screech from "Saved by the Bell" in Foreclosure
  
  The Associated Press is reporting that actor Dustin Diamond from televisions "Saved by the Bell" is selling T-shirts to help bail his home out of foreclosure. "Diamond, 29, is trying to sell nearly 30,000 shirts – at $15 or $20 (autographed) each – to supplement the income he makes as a standup comic so he doesn’t have to move from his Port Washington home, about 25 miles north of Milwaukee." This is different from your typical foreclosur e because it doesnt involve a lender foreclosing on a defaulted loan; it involves a landowner foreclosing on a land contract, according to the

• Will Homeowners Sink or Swim?
  
  Earlier in the year, there was a lot of discussion about a “soft landing” for the residential real estate market. Now there is increasing talk of a “harder landing.” But even if real estates landing is a soft one, one thing is clear: Real estate investors, agents and home buyers interested in successfully navigating the real estate foreclosure tide should let RealtyTrac help steer the ship towards continued success in the real estate business. Many American homeowners — initially attracted to low teaser rates on those “exotic” ARMs and sub-prime loans — now find themselves swimming upstream in a desperate attempt to remain financially afloat.

• Fed Pauses to Pass the Popcorn Around
  
  The bond market — which called for the Fed to take a breather from making further adjustments — went unchanged for the day, and the real estate industry — which believes the market is in the midst of a major period of correction and headed for a soft landing — breathed a momentary sigh of relief. If the national economy cools too much and inflation spins out of control, the country may experience a recession, resulting in a hard landing for the real estate market and an increased level of foreclosures. Alan Greenspan started directing this movie more than two years ago when he made the first of 17 consecutive edits (so-called “adjustments”) to interest rates, raising them 25 basis points each.

In the meantime, the crop is plentiful in Ohio for RealtyTrac subscribers looking to purchase a property at a discount and a chance to help out a potentially distressed homeowner.

• Now Homebuilders Face Foreclosure
  
  For millions of Americans facing foreclosure, the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cut this week was welcome news that could possibly help save thousands of homeowners from default by giving them the opportunity to refinance their adjustable-rate loan into a fixed-rate mortgage with a lower interest rate. Homebuilders, meanwhile, have been frantically selling off properties at huge discounts, laying off employees and selling undeveloped land to raise capital and remain liquid. But for many U.S. homebuilders the risk of foreclosure through bankruptcy has sharply risen under the pressure

• As Home Prices Plummet, When Will You Buy?
  
  In my opinion, we are going to see around 50% home price drop from peak in 2007(for south land) before price can stabilize. If you move westward other cities like Upland, Claremont, La Vern, San Dimas, Glendora, Azusa, Covina, Monrovia, Arcadia, San Gabriel, Temple City, Alhambra, Rosemead and Monterey Park, house price does not drop too much, probably around 5 to 10%. And that intervention could just be damming up another coming flood of foreclosures or it could actually be having a lasting impact and helping folks stay in their homes for the long term. Home prices in 20 of the nation's major metro areas in July were collectively down 16.3
