Lastly, we have the real attraction of option ARMs, the option payment itself, a payment which is insufficient to even pay off the monthly interest cost. Because Fitch says that a 40-year loan term represented 4 percent of all option ARMs in 2004 -- but 38 percent by 2007. A loan with four payment options may seem fairly understandable, but in the real world a lot of borrowers did not take out option ARMs because they wanted to make fully-amortizing payments.

Being realistic for the moment, for those of you who like to follow market trends, how about these: • Home prices in 17 out of 20 MSAs posted record low declines in February • The number of vacant homes in this country have hit a record high • Consumer confidence fell sharply in March • Home sales volume in the largest real estate market in the country was down significantly for March And it’s only Tuesday!
