Sorry! Pam
--Previous Message-- : Pam, please don't jump to conclusions : regarding subprime lenders. Maybe they : were just greedy investors out to : "make a killing". That's : exactly what drove up the prices here : in AZ! Many people are suffering for : that now. : I am certainly not a fan of subprime : lenders. But not all of them were : crooked. : JMHO : --Previous Message-- : I was in a particular city today : (one of my service areas), and it : was astonishing to see so VERY : many "For Sale" signs. On : one street : alone I counted approximately twelve : homes! : : I was in that area about ten days : ago. : Although there were the usual : "For Sale" : signs sprinkled about, it was nothing : like I saw today. : : On just about every block, there were : three or more signs. What makes this : particularly interesting, is that : many of : these properties were also marked : "just : reduced" or "priced for : quick sale". : : I know this area very well and : remember : a few years ago, when it was a : seller's : delight! During that time, many of : these : homes, (in my opinion) though very : nice, : were price Much too high. : : Now it seems as though these home : can't : even be given away! : : Though I do not have proof (without : actually researching the county : recorder's office), I suspect many of : these homeowners are victims of the : Sub-prime lending and/or : "creative : financing" fallout. : : I wonder how many of these Sub-Prime : Lenders and Mortgage Brokers are : having : to face the same situation? Probably : zero : (if that much). : : [And yes, I know that many of these : lenders etc. . .are : "closing-shop", but : I am very sure, that THEIR : residential : properties (for which they are : actually : living) are not facing foreclosure.] : : It is really a disheartening time for : many. : : : Pam : : : : : : : : :
