There is more than one way to put real estate sales together. If a buyer has a car, truck, semi-truck, semi-trailer, boat, mobile home, motor cycle, vacant lot, gem stones (the appraisals are varied), diamonds, collectibles, personal property loan, business note, judgment award, lawsuit pending on a traffic accident, life insurance annuities, inheritance, business inventory, chattel mortgages on equipment or any number of combinations can be used to make deals work. Yes it is sometimes sticky, but if you can stay within your comfort zone and two parties agree after utilizing professional appraisers and such, give it a go.

Real Estate Investors…Get Off The Sideline And Get Into The Game In A "Slow" Market… All For Fun And Profit
For months now many Realtors have been pacing the floor wondering where their next sale was coming from. The bad news drips off the front pages reporting for all to see how bad the real estate market has become. Thickets of real estate signs explode out of the ground much like the peak of any mushroom season. Sellers are now buying into the story believing the market is slow. For buyers who just as little as six months ago were pushing prices with little cash flow properties suddenly, these same properties have become ugly overnight. Shrewd investors always look for buying opportunities. Whether it is stocks, coins, gold, bonds, collectibles, antique cars, or real estate the investment principals apply. The typical successful contrarian looks for spots to make a move. If there isn’t any worthwhile action they simply stay liquid and move to cash. When the hand wringing begins by the general public the shrewd investor starts to lean forward on the edge of their chairs and begins to focus their collective gaze toward potential opportunities. Currently, there is a huge inventory of listed properties just sitting on the market in the Multiple Listing Services (MLS) in many areas. Some of these potential opportunities have motivated seller some do not. It is necessary to focus on the listed properties that have a motivated seller. With well thought offers, fun and profits can result. |

Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire…"Liar Loans" Lead To A Spike In Mortgage Foreclosures
It starts out all so innocently, the loan application (1003) is filled out while gathering the income and debts verified through credit reports and mortgage payoffs. Then the Debt To Income Ratio (DTI) is calculated dividing the debts including the new housing expense by the income and wham, it happens. The DTI is over 60%. Conventional loan guidelines historically have been around 28% for housing expenses including taxes, insurance, private mortgage insurance and homeowner maintenance fees. The total debt ratios had been around 36% for all monthly debts including the housing expense. With computer modeling and automatic approvals some DTI are allowed to float up in some cases to 50% to 60% if the borrower has lots of assets and the loan is on a full doc basis. As time passed, more and more hybrids began to show up. Mortgage Brokers were inundated with this new loan product called Stated Income. Simply the borrower would state their income on page two of the 1003 loan application and ratios would fall within lender acceptable limits. The original thinking by lenders were grounded in the premise that many busy well to do borrowers didn’t have time to compile tax returns and a litany of proof for their assets. Borrowers who were just trying to get a loan to pay off debts and a few months down the road after the new mortgage was in place were not able to make their payments. Foreclosure action followed in many cases. This was a loan with a wink. Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire… |

Credit Card Creep” + “Universal Default” → “125%
The “Universal Default” trigger mechanism used by many credit card companies who regularly check payment history in the bureaus. If they find a 30-day late or other derogatory information the interest rates on ALL the credit cards can be accelerated in many cases to the maximum legal limit. Thus, the sweet heart introductory rates went in some cases from 8.5% to 29.99% + to varying degrees. The “125%” Combined Loan-To-Value Second Mortgage can be utilized to roll high interest rate credit cards down to say 14.5% up to a loan limit in many cases to $75,000. It’s not a cure all but rather a temporary band aid to increase monthly cash flow while fully amortizing the debt. Aggressive payment of this second can make some sense as this rate is 14.5% plus depending on credit scores and exact loan to value percentages. |
