    Bank Failures Coming

    by Cory Boatright on Sep 01 2010

    Tax Credit Coming Back?

    by Cory Boatright on Aug 30 2010

    The evidence so far clearly shows that the surge in home sales in the first 2 quarters was completely due to the tax credit. So the slow down over the...

    Underwater Homes Down

    by Cory Boatright on Aug 27 2010

    Mortgage Defaults – First or Second?

    by Cory Boatright on Aug 26 2010

    HAMP’s Abysmal Failure

    by Cory Boatright on Aug 23 2010

    You know the government loves to dish out “I told you so” like it’s all they know how to say. You find a single company stepping out of line and...

Banks Hold $41b That Could Be Yours

Banks Hold $41b That Could Be Yours

Just take a wild guess how much foreclosed property US banks are holding right now? Come on, pick a big number. Ready? It’s $41.5 billion! Yep, that’s actually up 12.5% from the end of last year. It was “only” $36.9 billion back then. But don’t worry, these abandoned properties only represent 0.3% of what the...

Defaults Down, Foreclosures Up

There’s weird news coming out these days. Apparently lenders are repossesing record numbers of homes. But at the same time, they’re starting far fewer new proceedings against delinquencies. Weird, don’t you think? Most people think it’s just delaying the inevitable. I mean, most of those struggling homeowners have lost their jobs. And with unemployment unlikely...

How to Fix the Crisis

A report was released recently outlining outlining the Bureau of Justice Assitance’s ideas for how to deal with the problems in the housing market. It’s not really meant for regular folks, just for government agencies and law enforcement. Basically, the whole point of the report was that everyone needs to work together to get through...

Strategic Foreclosures

Two new studies that are beyond obvious and probably a waste of time, just came out. They say that record numbers of home owners are walking out on their mortgages even though they can still make payments. I just have one word for this: DUH! Yep, seems that confidence in a rise in home values...

Goodbye, Tax Credit

Experts are predicting that the expiration of the first time homebuyer tax credit won’t affect sales. Apparently, people will buy even if they can’t get the tax break. It’s a bit bizarre. On the one hand, 90% of consumers surveyed said the tax credits have helped the market. But then 65% of them said the...

Pre-Owned Homes Are HOT

Pre-Owned Homes Are HOT

It seems like people are taking better care of their homes these days. If you can believe the numbers, previously-owned home sales rose higher than expected in March. After three straight months of drops this is a welcome relief to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). They’re even predicting a strong spring season coming up...

Would you lend money now?

Would you lend money now?

You know those banks that got bailed out last year? Of course you do. You remember, they took all your tax money and it seemed to disappear. Yeah, I see you nodding your head. You know the banks I’m talking about. Well, I’m no expert (not about banks anyway), but here’s what I thought the...

When Waves Attack

When Waves Attack

I don’t know if you caught the (non-real estate) news this weekend, but a rogue wave at a Calif. surfing competition got some spectators into the action. Apparently a 6-foot wave washed away a group of spectators leaving them bruised and battered. Well, if you’ve been a spectator all this time on the real estate...

Foreclosures by State

Check out the image and find your state. (If you don’t know what your state looks like, ask a friend or go back to 7th grade geography.) Notice the interesting shades of green. (If you’re color blind, again, ask a friend or guess randomly.) Now this is a map of the severity of the foreclosure...
