What Happens When The FHA Loans Go To Default In Two Years?

By
Real Estate Agent with Allison James Estates & Homes 01079287

With only 3 1/2% down will they bail when housing prices drop again in two years? Will the people with Conventional loans hang in there? Will the banks and the government own all the homes? Will we become a company state. Where as the house, car, food stores and job you have are all be company owned? Is this the face of CHANGE? Think about it?

Realtor simple guideline to guesstimate a Homes values! Comparing apples with oranges? How to set values for embellishments? Do you think the old adage of Value equals Location, Location, Location, is true? Views, Pools, special interest additions can add desirability, and then Granite Counters, Travertine flooring, condition, square footage and any embellishments, upgrades, updates you can add to a property is worth 60-70% of the cost. This value will also be depreciated over time. Example would you consider if a twenty year old solid oak cabinette's
value even in good condition is equal in value to cabinets in the newer current color, or are they? Objective would be desirability.

Location is the basis for value. Like Homes within a one mile radius share values, and can be evaluated by sales per square foot within the last 3+ months. Pulses

First Time Home Buyers, VA Buyers, Horse Ranches,

Anyone able to purchase now and who missed out in the first go round (2003-2007) will now be set up for the next drop. With first time home buyer incentives and FHA backed loans, we are currently seeing multiple offers and cash buys. The local market here is in an up swing, no longer a buyers market, flippers are making a splash. Prices are increasing and cash buyers do not need appraisalss, this is helping to float the next wave.

Sorry just a realist. I really hope I am wrong.

Interesting observation.  We will have to see what is on the horizon.  And NO, this is not the change I had hoped for. Then again, I didn't vote for that so called Change, so I won't be responsible for it!
