Lower Rates, While Great, Do Little For Jumbo Lending

October 1, 2009

Real Estate Outlook: Mortgage Rate Dip Impacts Housing | realtytimes.com

The Realty Times article reflects the positive effects of lower interest rates on mortgage originations and home purchases, but fails to note the failure of said rates to transcend the conforming/conventional markets into the jumbo markets.

JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending

September 26, 2009

How to Stop a Credit Card Payment Increase | www.mainstreet.com

During the last major financial meltdown or depression, JPMorgan, the man who encouraged lending by laying down the gauntlet to his peers, single handedly stimulated the economy. He knew that the severe times dictated new and severe lending techniques. I believe there is going to be an even LARGER backlash to Chase and American Express and other credit card lending institutions, that continue in the business of credit card lending, and continue alienating the high FICO borrowers.

"Option" mortgages to explode, officials warn | www.linkedin.com

While a very general description of the Pay Option ARM disaster that is looming, the Reuters article is dead-on in two conclusions: many more homes will be hitting the market over the course of the next two and one-half years and that the mortgage plague that started with the subprime crisis will be moving from the lower income strata to the middle and higher income areas.

Lending in Europe continues to shrink | www.ft.com

Banks across Europe have insisted in recent months any decline in lending is due to a falloff in demand, not supply. Supply is not useful if the line or rate does not make any sense.
