How Much for Those Lender Assets in the Window?
This is a huge issue because at the end of 2007 the United States had residential mortgages worth $10.5 You could look at the Merrill sale and say, Aha! In other words, not all of WAMUs liabilities. “In conjunction with this acquisition,” said JPMorgan Chase, it would be “marking down the acquired loan portfolio by approximately $31 billion, which primarily represents our estimate of remaining credit losses related to the impaired loans.” In its investor presentation How Much for Those Lender Assets in the Window?

National Registration For Loan Officers Becomes Reality
Could it be that the nice person carefully writing down your social security number and financial information has committed fraud, is barred from selling loans in another state or never took a mortgage financing class? Prior to the legislation 14 states participated in the voluntary Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System, but under the new rules all states and all loan officers will be part of a mandatory registration system to be established during the coming year.

Realtors '07 Forecast Looks Promising for Future Foreclosure Activity
If California’s economic indicators stay at their present course, 2007 should be a very good year for investing and purchasing foreclosure properties at bargain prices. At Wednesday’s Opening Session of California Realtor EXPO 2006, Leslie Appleton-Young, Chief Economist for the California Association of Realtors, presented her housing forecast for next year , calling for the state’s median home price to drop for the first time in 10 years and the pace of home sales to continue to decrease. LONG BEACH, Calif. — The CAR forecast also calls for a 2 percent drop in

California Consumers Hit the Skids
The report cites concerns about the housing market, gasoline prices, the job market and the volatility of the stock market as key to the negativity among consumers about present and future economic conditions. These concerns are genuinely justified in California, the state which has led the nation in total properties with foreclosure filings for 19 out of the last 20 months, according to RealtyTrac . Analysts at the A. Gary Anderson Center for Economic Research at Chapman University in Orange, Calif.,

Latest Reports Sending Out Mixed Signals
Two reports came out Tuesday that are prime examples of conflicting opinions and the confusion they can cause the average consumer or investor when it comes to assessing the state of the economy. The other report, released by the National Association of Realtors , reported that pending sales of existing homes were down 1.9 Yet, in the NAR announcement, chief economist Lawrence One report, the IBD/TIPP economic optimism index (published by Investor’s Business Daily and TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence), dropped to 39.2 in April, the largest drop in consumer confidence measured

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.

Too Soon For a Comeback
At present it does not appear that there is enough evidence yet to declare that a market comeback is in the offing. The bottom line is that no one can say anything with 100 percent certainty given the current state of our national economy. Even the National Association of Realtors, which has come out with its latest report documenting a two percent decline in existing home sales for March 2008, down 19.3 percent from March 2007, can’t be certain. Although industry analysts were anticipating this monthly decline, according to Mortgage News Daily .

Immediate Relief Nowhere to Be Found
Consumers' assessment of present-day conditions continues to grow more negative and suggests the economy remains stuck in low gear. quot; In addition to a general negativity from consumers regarding the present state of the economy, the Board’s monthly Expectations survey concluded that consumers were pessimistic about business conditions improving over the next six months, and their outlook on the labor market was also negative. Three top indices of economic health in the U.S. came out with negative reports this month, supporting the notion that the nation’s

Foreclosures: Chicken or Egg?
That slowing of demand had a domino effect, causing home sales to slow and home price appreciation to flatten and even go negative in the first quarter of 2007, according to Carney’s research. The slowing sales and stagnant home prices have in turn contributed to a sharp rise in defaults and foreclosures . That fact was reaffirmed during the luncheons feature presentation, in which It’s a classic chicken-and-egg question: are foreclosures a cause or a symptom of the slumping housing market? One Southern California economist believes they’re clearly a symptom. “I

Local Market Perspective: Seattle, Wash.
Over the past three months, my clients and I have presented nine contracts to pre-foreclosure, REO and short sale sellers. In the Northern Seattle area there currently very few REO properties, and in terms of real short sales, I have seen under 10 that are decent over the past month. It makes a transaction so much less of a nightmare, and in a few years you will have built yourself a great real estate portfolio in one of the best cities in Out of those nine contracts, nine have been beat by better offers. I

New Poll: Buyers to Remain on the Fence
the survey’s sample was selected from all states except Alaska and Hawaii. For one, existing home sales — which went up in February — may be nothing more than a momentary blip on the radar screen. And most importantly, the steady stream of foreclosures will continue for the foreseeable future, presenting plenty of opportunity for investors to get involved, helping to alleviate the fears of distressed homeowners facing uncertain financial consequences and almost certain foreclosure. If the results of the latest Associated Press-AOL Money & Finance poll are any indication, prospective home buyers will be keeping their wallets closed and remain on the fence at least until the latest economic downturn blows over.
