I am in financial difficulty. I was able to negotiate some of my credit cards to be on a 0% to 4% interest rate and will be paid off anywhere from 3 to 5 years. I have some credit cards that would not negotiate in taking the interest down and I am already 5 months behind. I was told that those accounts will be charged off in a month or two. For one of those, the charge off offer will be 1,500 on a 6,500 balance. In about few months, I am looking at a short sale for my house. I am in a current forebearance agreement but I do not qualify on Making Home Affordable Program. So, I am looking at an increased mortgage when Forebearance agreement ended. I can barely make ends meet now. So, is it advisable to put all my accounts in Debt Settlement, since I will have a short sale, and maintaining few good accounts will not help my credit score. If I have lower payments, I will just about break-even or save couple hundred a month.

From: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-08-13/manhattan-luxury-condos-embrace-federal-help-in-game-changer-for-sales.html <> Now, some simple calculus for you, folks. Buying an $820,000 property (that's the very cheapest of these luxury apartments) at 3.5% one will have to make a $5K payment (mortgage plus condo-fees) every month for 30 years: http://www.mlcalc.com/#mortgage-820000-3.5-30-4.375-3000-1500-0.52-8-2010-none Why is the Obama's Federal Housing Authority -- which can not even properly house all the poor eligible for the Section 8 assistance (http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta/housing-crisis-reaches-full-589653.html ) -- busying itself with and tying their budget on people, who can afford to spend $5K/month on an apartment and are interested in living next to a pet spa? If the housing market moves down only 3.5%, these new mortgages will be "underwater" -- the condo-owners will owe banks more, than the properties are worth. This is when people usually tend to "walk away" from the properties -- and is why a normal downpayment is at least 10% (usually -- 20%). When people do walk away, the FHA (read, the taxpayers) will be on the hook for the rest of the mortgages... And rich people will not shy from walking away at all (now that we no longer throw dead-beats into jail): http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2010/07/rich-defaulting-at-highest-rate.html Is it fair to suspect, this is done to further destroy Capitalism? After the staggering success with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, who were told by the government to relax their rules: http://www.nytimes.com/1999/09/30/business/fannie-mae-eases-credit-to-aid-mortgage-lending.html to allow people buy unaffordable homes resulting in the housing bubble and the subsequent crisis of financial system: http://www.ornery.org/essays/warwatch/2008-10-05-1.html is the FHA now instructed to do a similar relaxation of rules to give Socialists another argument that "Capitalism does not work"? Or is it simply a way to reward rich New York donors -- both the buyers and the sellers of these luxury condos -- for their support of the Democratic Party? In a properly Free Market Capitalism, people who make a wrong bet -- such as choosing to build a luxury building, when the buyers want a normal one -- get punished by losing money. In Obama's CRONY Capitalism, the government helps them out -- at the taxpayers' expense...Correrafan! If you are referring to Bush's use of Haliburton, well, that did not start with him (with Clinton rather) nor end with him (Obama keeps awarding the company no-bid contracts). But I don't recall anything like this thing on Bush's watch -- there is a completely new ground broken here, I think...

My parents are veterans and they're in the process of getting a house. They went to a real estate company, and got this older generation agent (you'll see how this plays in later- I'm not ageist...) Anyway, we've seen houses with this agent, and we got to this one beautiful house. We loved this house and wanted to make an offer- it was part of a bidding process since others had bit on it. Since my parents are Veterans, they applied and got approved for a VA loan (which covers 100% of the mortgage, instead of things like FHA, which requires 3% down). So, we don't have to put anything down on the house. We talked to the agent, and he said that it was ridiculous, the best percentage was FHA, 3% down. 0% down was unheard of. This agent is wrong, the VA loan is 0% down; the agent thought it was a scam, probably. One VA representative said that this might happen with an older generation since it wasn't too common back then. However, the house we liked went under a contract, we lost it. This agent made us lose the house (we tried to act, but the agent stopped us, and pressured my mom to put 10% down, and then tried to pressure my dad. My dad told him that we already had a bank). I was so mad when I heard this since it's all of his fault! We lost the house we liked since the agent said: "It's hard to represent when you put nothing down." "There's no such thing as 0% down." "You have to sign here, and put 3% down [which is $13,000 out of pocket]." This is the FHA guidelines. The question I want to ask is: Should my parents just switch agents and go to some other place and get a more trustworthy agent, or should they stay with the agent? (By staying with the agent, we have an opportunity to bid on other homes we saw with said agent. If we switch to another agent, we lose the chance to go to one of the viewed houses, and have to start from scratch.) Thank you for your opinions.

I am wondering if it is smart to throw all of my profits from the sale of my house onto my new mortgage, or pay off a vehicle and only throw a portion of the profits onto the new mortgage. Our van has 0% interest for another 4 years and we are getting a new mortgage and have the ability to throw 75,000 onto it. So my question is, is it smarter to throw $25,000 onto paying off the van and then $40,000 + ($10,000 remaining into savings) onto a down payment on the new house or throw all of it $75,000 onto a new mortgage and keeping the van payments. Please tell me your honest opinion of what you would do and why... THanks

How could he have possibly done it correctly, when he has never done anything....except organize? Even when this administration puts forth a plan, it's usually so ill-conceived that it is immediately shown to be: poorly designed, rushed through, naive in it's goals and stated purposes, and most of all, the numbers never add up? Isn't this administration supposed to be smart? Didn't we hear, ad-nauseum about how intelligent he was? What happened to all that "smartitude"? excerpt... Government watchdogs told a Senate panel Wednesday that the Obama administration's effort to help homeowners avoid foreclosure isn't working and that the Treasury Department has failed to fix the program. Special inspector general for the financial bailouts Neil Barofsky said the program has not "put an appreciable dent in foreclosure filings," during a Senate Finance Committee hearing on the $700 billion bank bailout. He also said the Treasury Department has ignored earlier demands that it set clearer goals for the program. Elizabeth Warren, who chairs a separate Congressional Oversight Panel on the bailouts, said Treasury's failure to act more quickly could be hurting the recovery. More foreclosures could force down the price of homes and further hurt the already-ailing housing industry. The homeownership program aims to reduce mortgage payments for millions of homeowners who can't afford their monthly bills. Recent data suggest it has helped about 400,000 households avoid foreclosure. About 530,000 have fallen out of the program. The bailout has provided up to $50 billion for the mortgage modification programs. So far, about $248 million in bailout money has been spent on the program. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Bailout-watchdog-calls-apf-1527849934.html?x=0

I remember seeing that the amount of coverage that mortgage companies enforce is too stringent. If one is living in a single family 0.33 acre lot without any side-walk, could you negotiate your premium down and also reduce the amount of insurance coverage on the house - once you have paid the mortgage down completely on your house ? Are there other benefits on paying down your mortgage (ignoring the low interests in the market/etc) ?

By Ambrose Evans-Pilchard, International Business Editor Published: 8:52PM BST 15 Jul 2010 for UK-Telegraph C/P The euro rocketed to a two-month high of $1.29 and sterling jumped two cents to almost $1.54 after the Fed confessed that the US economy may not recover for five or six years. Far from winding down emergency stimulus, the bank may need a fresh blast of bond purchases or quantitative easing. Usually the dollar serves as a safe haven whenever the world takes fright, and there was plenty of sobering news from China and other quarters on Thursday. Not this time. The US itself has become the problem. "The worm is turning," said David Bloom, currency chief at HSBC. "We're in a world of rotating sovereign crises. The market seems to become obsessed with one idea at a time, then violently swings towards another. People thought the euro would break-up. Now we're moving into a new phase because we're hearing alarm bells of a US double dip." Mr Bloom said a deep change is under way in investor psychology as funds and central banks respond to the blizzard of shocking US data and again focus on the fragility of an economy where public debt is surging towards 100pc of GDP, not helped by the malaise enveloping the Obama White House. "The Europeans have aired their dirty debt in public and taken some measures to address it, whilst the US has not," he said. The Fed minutes warned of "significant downside risks" and a possible slide into deflation, an admission that zero interest rates, $1.75 trillion of QE, and a fiscal deficit above 10pc of GDP have so far failed to lift the economy out of a structural slump. "The Committee would need to consider whether further policy stimulus might become appropriate if the outlook were to worsen appreciably," it said. The economy might not regain its "longer-run path" until 2016. "The Fed is throwing in the towel," said Gabriel Stein, of Lombard Street Research. "They are preparing to start QE again. This was predictable because the M3 broad money supply has been contracting for months." The Fed minutes amount to a policy thunderbolt, evidence of how quickly the recovery has lost steam. Just weeks ago the Fed was mapping out withdrawal of stimulus. Goldman Sachs said it expects the euro to rise to $1.35 by the end of the year. The yen will appreciate to ¥83, through the pain barrier for most of Japan's big exporters. The new twist is that SAFE, China's $2.4 trillion fund, has begun buying record amounts of Japanese bonds, a shift in reserve allocation away from the dollar. The signs of a deep and sudden slowdown in the US are becoming ever clearer as the "sugar rush" from the Obama fiscal stimulus wears off and the inventory boost fades. California, Illinois and other states are cutting spending, tightening US fiscal policy by 0.8pc of GDP. Thursday's plunge in the Philadelphia Fed's July index of new manufacturing orders to –4.3 suggests that the economy may have buckled abruptly, as it did in mid-2008. The Economic Cycle Research Institute's ECRI leading indicator has tumbled, reaching –8.3pc last week. This points to a sharp slowdown or recession within three months. While US port data looked buoyant in June, the details were troubling. Outbound traffic from Long Beach fell from 139,000 containers in May to 116,000 in June. Shipments from Los Angeles fell from 161,000 to 155,000. This drop in exports is worsening the US trade deficit, eroding the dollar. The US workforce has shrunk by a 1m over the past two months as discouraged jobless give up the hunt. Retail sales have fallen for the past two months. New homes sales crashed to 300,000 in May after tax credits ran out, the lowest since records began in 1963. Mortgage applications have fallen by 42pc to 13-year low since April. Paul Dales at Capital Economics said the "shadow inventory" of unsold properties has risen to 7.8m. "The double dip in housing has begun," he said. Alcoa, CSX, Intel, and JP Morgan have reported good earnings, but they mostly did so in July 2008 just before their shares collapsed. Such earnings rarely catch turning points and can be a lagging indicator. Profits have been boosted in this cycle by cost-cutting, which is self-defeating for the economy as a whole. The minutes confirm the Fed is split down the middle over QE. Fed watchers say the Board in Washington wants to be ready to launch another round of bond purchases if necessary, pushing the banks balance sheet from $2.4 trillion towards $5 trillion, but hawks at the regional banks are highly sceptical. A study by the San Francisco Fed said the interest rates need to be –4.5pc to stabilise the economy under the Fed's "rule of thumb". Since this is impossible, massive QE needs to make up the difference. Tim Congdon from International Monetary Re

HYPERINFLATION LATER. THIS IS WHAT GOVERNMENTS W/O COURAGE PRODUCE. a good example would be Argentina post 2001; first they had deflation and then they devalued and purchased high speed printing presses to churn out pesos; shortly thereafter inflation started - at first a trickle and then within 2-3 years they got hit with 30 to 50% inflation. The US will be no different; the American confetti money will hyper-inflate probably starting in 2012; possibly even sooner

Intelligent people criticized the bill for not addressing mortgage financing giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, whose questionable lending helped start a collapse in the housing market.

- i brought a house last year for $220K - i paid 20 % down - I got a 15 yr fixed loan - I got 4.75% - Its 4.99% APR Now recently I have seen 15 yr fixed rate go down to 4.09 - 4.15% in news paper. 1) Does it make sense to refinance to get the lower rate ? 2) Can I talk to my own bank (wellsfargo) where I currently have mortgage to see if they can lower my rate ? 3) Can we really do a refinance for a lower rate with $0 closing costs ? or its just a catch ? 4) I don't want to spend a penny and would like to do a refinance for a lower rate with any other bank ? is it possible ?

Their secret was out: Despite their upbringing in middle America, their academic success and their network of native-born friends, they had no permission to be in the United States. Their parents had brought them here illegally as children. The Robleses, now out of jail but fighting removal in Immigration Court, are among thousands of young illegal immigrants in similar situations, living at risk of being expelled to countries they barely remember. They are known in some circles as "Dream Act" kids, named after proposed legislation that would grant them legal status. This month, a Harvard University student who came from Mexico at age 4, Eric Balderas, joined their ranks after he was arrested by immigration agents at the San Antonio Airport. Their cases underscore a conflict in the Obama administration's approach to immigration enforcement. Even though the president supports the Dream Act — which would provide a path to legalization for illegal immigrants brought here as children who enroll either in college or the military — his enforcement bureaucracy continues to pursue deportation cases against the increasing number of students who would be protected by it. It's part of a push that is on track to remove a record 400,000 illegal immigrants this year. "It highlights the inconsistencies in immigration policies," said William Perez, a Claremont Graduate University professor and author of a book about illegal-immigrant students called "We Are Americans." Immigration authorities say they use their discretion and rarely deport students, particularly once their teachers, coaches, friends and elected representatives speak out on their behalf. Balderas, for example, was placed in "deferred status," meaning the government won't remove him unless he gets in trouble. But even so, the young people remain in legal limbo, often unable to land a professional job once earning a degree. "These cases illustrate the need for comprehensive immigration reform," said Virginia Kice, spokeswoman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "ICE uses its discretion on a case-by-case basis, as appropriate." Carlos and Rafael Robles were on the way to visit a friend at Harvard — not Balderas — when they were arrested. They spent a weekend in jail before friends posted $5,000 bond apiece. They had to travel to Buffalo again recently for a court hearing after an immigration judge turned down their request to move their case to Chicago. Their next court date is next year. Their father works for a car dealer, and their mother is an assistant at a mortgage company. They came to the U.S. by airplane five years ago on tourist visas and never went back. "We want to go to school and to work here," Carlos Robles said. Several members of their community have written letters on their behalf, said Robert Carroll, a teacher at Palatine High School. "Gee whiz, these are just two quality kids," he said. "They are everything you would want your kids to be. These kids are going to be leaders in their communities — taxpayers, not tax recipients." The Dream Act, sponsored by Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and others, came up eight votes short in the Senate in 2007, when an effort to overhaul immigration law fell apart. The following year, then-candidate Barack Obama urged its passage during a presidential debate. But Obama has done little to push the bill as president. Some opponents say the measure would grant "amnesty" to a far larger circle of illegal immigrants than the college students who have become the faces of the movement. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-metstudent-deportations-0627-20100626,0,4217306.story Why are illegals trying to erode our laws ? Should I not get a speeding ticket cause I am good student ? All Mexicans have relatives in Mexico to help them adjust. People all over the world move to countries they know nothing about and adjust and make it ok.Why are these Mexicans so special ? Illegals admit they are illegal to police why do they think the dream act should dismiss all charges aganist them ?

The sweeping legislation — about 2,000 pages long — overhauls the regulatory system in an attempt to prevent a repeat of the financial crisis. Among its major initiatives, it would create a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, impanel a council of regulators to monitor the financial system for major risks, impose tough regulations on complex financial derivatives and grant the government power to seize and dismantle teetering firms whose failure would pose a danger to the economy. http://www.latimes.com/business/la-na-financial-reform-20100626,0,2761756.story "and grant the government power to seize and dismantle teetering firms whose failure would pose a danger to the economy." Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ARE and have been a danger to the economy since Bwaney Fwanks said its not a "problem". Frank stated, "These two entities...are not facing any kind of financial crisis.... The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_Frank NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Mortgage finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were ordered by their federal regulator to no longer trade their shares on the New York Stock Exchange, the agency announced Wednesday. Both stocks plummeted on the news. Since that time, the Treasury Department has poured $83.6 billion into Fannie Mae and $61.3 billion into Freddie Mac to cover losses on the trillions of dollars worth of mortgage-backed securities they own or guarantee. http://money.cnn.com/2010/06/16/news/fannie_freddie_delisting/ So common sense would dictate that BOTH of them need to be SHUT DOWN and investigate TODAY, but the dimwitted Dems would never do that, just keep pouring BILLIONS of tax dollars into the black hole.
