How Much for Those Lender Assets in the Window?
You could look at the Merrill sale and say, Aha! billion for the “deposits, assets and certain liabilities of Washington Mutuals banking operations.” One can see investors looking at delinquency and foreclosure rates, loan age and also geographic concentrations, down payment data, equity, income, credit ratings, sale terms and other factors.

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. Second, some people think it would be a really good idea to dismember Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. "I say that we cant let them go fast enough," explains a commenter by the name of Wazzel who posted on the Washington Independent website.

Realtors '07 Forecast Looks Promising for Future Foreclosure Activity
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.

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. In addition, the low average sales price of foreclosures in these states makes it easier to purchase a foreclosure property — especially at foreclosure auctions, where the full amount in cash is sometimes required. 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.

And the Hits' Just Keep On Coming!
Washington Mutual and Merrill Lynch. Now with the first week of October behind us, Citigroup, Washington Mutual (WaMu as it likes to be known) and Merrill Lynch announced their organizations would be taking major hits in the pocketbook for the third quarter of 2007. Ongoing weakness in the housing market, along with held-for-sale mortgages, net losses in the company’s trading securities portfolio and losses on investment grade mortgage-backed securities were cited as key contributors to the projected loss for the quarter. Countrywide. Citigroup.

Not Enough Rope in Administration's Lifeline' Program
Washington Mutual and Wells Fargo & Co. — Plus, the program is not available to borrowers who are within 30 days of the property’s foreclosure sale (in most states known as the Trustee’s Sale or Sheriff’s Sale and normally conducted on the local courthouse steps). Just a few short months ago President Bush stood in front of the press and swore that it was not the federal government’s job to bail out either lenders who made bad loans or speculative homebuyers who purchased more home than they could rightly afford utilizing the so-called “exotic” or “liar loans” popularized over the past few years.

40 Is the New 30 for Lenders and Investors
Wells Fargo, for example, just announced that it is joining the growing number of lenders, like Washington Mutual and Bank of America, that are offering 40-year fixed-rate loans. Even though prices are up, home sales volume is down dramatically -- just ask the National Association of Realtors -- homeowners are not refinancing anywhere near the levels seen even just a year ago, and the number of new homes under construction is declining as is building permits. Well, as Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke decides on his next move -- will he or wont he ratchet up interest rates another 25 basis points next month as most economists are predicting -- mortgage lenders are also pondering their next moves.

Ohio Lawmaker Seeks Solution to Foreclosure Level
It looks like foreclosures are starting to become a national call to action for some Washington bureaucrats. Mortgage delinquencies continue to rise, the number of single-family permits are declining, the rate of home price appreciation is below the national average, and the state’s median home price declined in Q1, although home sales were up 6 percent for the quarter One news report on the outcome of the meeting has witnesses placing blame squarely on easy lending practices, which is the same story heard in many states around the country right now. One example — Rep. Steven
