Increasing Jumbo Loan Defaults
According to this Bloomberg article, Moody’s Reviews $143 Billion of Jumbo-Mortgage Bonds (Update1), Moody's Investor Services is currently reviewing a $143 billion pool of jumbo mortgage (mortgage loans in excess of $417,000 in most places, or $729,750 in more expensive areas) backed bonds with likely credit downgrades due to "the rapidly deteriorating performance of jumbo pools in conjunction with macroeconomic conditions that remain under duress." In other words, due to rapidly increasing jumbo mortgage loan defaults, the securities that are backed by these loans are now worth less than before. According to article, home prices, especially higher end homes will continue to decline with the $1.6 trillion market for jumbo mortgage backed bonds declining as a result. A lot more jumbo mortgage loan losses are coming along with more short sales and foreclosures.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Need More Government Aid
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Need More Government Aid
According to this Bloomberg article, Fannie, Freddie Overseer May Seek More Treasury Aid (Update2), the annual dividend payments owed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (Government Sponsored Entities, or GSE's) to the US treasury exceed the total earned by both GSE's, and as a result, the GSE's are actually needing to borrow more bailout money from the US Treasury in order to pay the annual dividend payments they owe the US Treasury. Unfortunately, this sounds all to familiar. You cannot become a profitable company by borrowing more to pay your current debts. It is a recipe for more financial disaster. No doubt that this is all due to the incredibly high number of bad loans and foreclosures. The article states "Treasury and Federal Housing Finance Agency officials are also debating whether to lower the mortgage-finance companies’ dividend payments on their Treasury borrowings, according to these people, who requested not to be identified describing the internal deliberations. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the largest sources of mortgage money in the U.S., have used $111.6 billion of their $400 billion in backup financing in less than a year. The companies say their 10 percent annual dividend payment, which comes to about $5 billion each, costs more than either have earned in most years and adds to their draws on Treasury." According to the article, the US treasury is considering reducing the GSE's annual dividend payments in order to prevent the need for another government bailout. This all seems like a lot of wasted time, energy and money to keep 2 insolvent GSE's from failing.

Former Bank Executives Want to Buy Failed Banks
Former Bank Executives Want to Buy Failed Banks
According to this Reuters article, Some ex-bank execs want into FDIC auctions, former bank executives are raising investment funds to acquire failed financial banks. While the FDIC has not been willing to approve many such private equity deals thus far (almost all of the failed banks/financial institutions have been taken over by other banks/financial institutions), the article quotes Paul Miller, FBR Capital Markets analyst at Reuters Global Finance Summit, as saying the FDIC will likely become more receptive to private equity acquisitions of failed banks/financial institutions since "There's just not enough good banks to take over all the bad banks. We're going to see more of these groups bid right alongside other banks." I agree. There are definitely not enough "good banks." That is one of our problems. I just hope that the banks/financial institutions or private equity groups that take over the failed banks/financial institutions are sensible and willing to work with homeowners who want to short sell their homes.

FHA Will Tighten Underwriting
FHA Will Tighten Underwriting
According to this Inman News article, FHA will tighten up in 2010, "The Obama administration is moving to tighten underwriting standards on FHA-backed loans by increasing the amount of upfront cash homebuyers must bring to the table, raising minimum FICO scores for new borrowers, and reducing maximum seller concessions from 6 percent to 3 percent." Many industry experts and insiders believe that this will result in the FHA raising the minimum down payment from 3.5% to 5.0%, raising the minimum credit score to around 620 and reducing (from 6% to 3%) the amount of closing costs that the seller can pay on behalf of buyers. The reason that the FHA is taking these measures is that the FHA is currently experiencing record default rates and is insolvent as a result of the FHA's role in becoming the de-facto replacement for the extinct subprime mortgage market. I covered this issue in my blog post FHA in Deep Trouble: Default Rates Skyrocketing.

IndyMac-OneWest Harming Homeowners
IndyMac-OneWest Harming Homeowners
According to this PissedConsumer review of IndyMac Bank (now OneWest), the FDIC's generous shared-loss deal with OneWest (the bank/investor that purchased the defunct IndyMac) is causing serious problems for financially distressed homeowners who are former IndyMac mortgage, equity loan and equity line borrowers. In my blog posts FDIC Hurting Distressed Homeowners and FDIC Hurting Homeowners: Case 1 I cover the causes of the problems. I recommend that you check out the links and see exactly what the FDIC's actions (paid for with taxpayer money) are allowing IndyMac/OneWest to do to people. It is truly infuriating and deeply disturbing. The result will be more foreclosed homes and homeowners.

FDIC Hurting Homeowners: Case 1
FDIC Hurting Homeowners: Case 1
In my previous blog post, FDIC Hurting Distressed Homeowners, I discussed some current FDIC actions that are hurting distressed homeowners. Based on this information and other information posted on my blog (see Our Phony Real Estate Market), I believe that the recent government actions (shared-loss agreements with banks that take over failed banks, bank bailouts, FASB accounting rule changes which allow financial institutions (banks) to hide losses, homebuyer tax credits, increased mortgage loan purchasing by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, the US Treasury's $1.25 trillion mortgage security purchasing program, expanded FHA, Making Home Affordable, etc.) are actually harming distressed homeowners, new home buyers, existing homeowners and the real estate market in general. The harm is usually caused due to the unintended consequences of the government meddling in the market. Below is my first live case study of such adverse consequences.
FDIC Hurting Homeowners: Case Study #1
In response to my blog post FDIC Hurting Distressed Homeowners, I received an email from a homeowner who is a victim of the FDIC's shared-loss agreement with OneWest Bank which took over the now defunct IndyMac Bank. OneWest Bank is owned by George Soros, Michael Dell, Steve Mnuchin (former Goldman Sachs executive), and John Paulson (hedge-fund billionaire). Therefore, the US Government via the FDIC is using taxpayer money to make the super rich even richer. This disgusts me.
The homeowner is fighting to save their home from foreclosure. In doing so they sent the letter below to "every member of congress in my state along with the media." Therefore, they gave me permission to publish their letter on my blog. In the interest of disclosure, the letter is exactly as I received it except for some formatting changes and some spelling corrections. As you can see this is a very disturbing situation where the actions of the government have enabled and government enriched company to push a financially distressed homeowner around. The result of this will be increased foreclosures, which are harmful to homeowners and neighborhoods and reduced numbers of loan modifications and short sales, which are better for distressed homeowners and neighborhoods.

In my previous blog post, FDIC Hurting Distressed Homeowners, I discussed some current FDIC actions that are hurting distressed homeowners. Based on this information and other information posted on my blog (see Our Phony Real Estate Market), I believe that the recent government actions (shared-loss agreements with banks that take over failed banks, bank bailouts, FASB accounting rule changes which allow financial institutions (banks) to hide losses, homebuyer tax credits, increased mortgage loan purchasing by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae, the US Treasury's $1.25 trillion mortgage security purchasing program, expanded FHA, Making Home Affordable, etc.) are actually harming distressed homeowners, new home buyers, existing homeowners and the real estate market in general. The harm is usually caused due to the unintended consequences of the government meddling in the market. Below is my first live case study of such adverse consequences.
FDIC Hurting Homeowners: Case Study #1
In response to my blog post FDIC Hurting Distressed Homeowners, I received an email from a homeowner who is a victim of the FDIC's shared-loss agreement with OneWest Bank which took over the now defunct IndyMac Bank. OneWest Bank is owned by George Soros, Michael Dell, Steve Mnuchin (former Goldman Sachs executive), and John Paulson (hedge-fund billionaire). Therefore, the US Government via the FDIC is using taxpayer money to make the super rich even richer. This disgusts me.
The homeowner is fighting to save their home from foreclosure. In doing so they sent the letter below to "every member of congress in my state along with the media." Therefore, they gave me permission to publish their letter on my blog. In the interest of disclosure, the letter is exactly as I received it except for some formatting changes and some spelling corrections. As you can see this is a very disturbing situation where the actions of the government have enabled and government enriched company to push a financially distressed homeowner around. The result of this will be increased foreclosures, which are harmful to homeowners and neighborhoods and reduced numbers of loan modifications and short sales, which are better for distressed homeowners and neighborhoods.
