    Desperate Homebuilders Bringing Back Bubble-Era Financing - Housing Tracker [view article]
    Most of the articles clearly indicate that the paradigm shift hasn't taken place yet. While I don't expect the big homebuilders to pack up their stuff and leave, they appear to be betting their futures on a return to the good old days. The thing about the good old days is, like the tech bubble, they were never real. Let the turkeys that like these turkeys drive them up in a "hope" rally (financials, anyone?), and then short them, because once the recession hits for real, they're dead meat. Reply

    There is a wealth of useful information to be gleaned from the articles referenced here. If you can't find anything useful, you're not looking very hard! Yes, there is a lot of ground to cover, and not all of the articles are relevant to everyone, but I suspect all are relevant to SOMEONE. Thanks for the summaries, Judy! Reply

    The irony of the return of the 100% loan is that while the government tries to work out the current housing mess it's adding fuel to the fire with no downpayment loans. These are not private sector loans, rather they are FHA insured loans. Here's a link to an article I wrote yesterday on the subject-blog.metro-real-estate...

    The article looks like spam to me. Hard to find the one that corresponds to the headline. One big steaming pile of stuff from other places. I'm always disappointed when I open the article and see the face of the 'author', I clicked for nothing.

    Mozilo – Countrywide – LandSafe – And The Others – Show True Colors

    Well boys and girls – now that countrywide has – Got a little of whats coming down the pike – Just wait till there spending billions – On removing squatters – and corpo liens ……..

    Heck – I could make a living off – Just squatting in Countrywide House’s.

    The Rich-Greedy – Needs to Know – American Justice System – Is a two way sword.

    We did everything we could – to have worked things out – But as you see with Gonzilo – He never did care about anything but his money.

    So since he used the laws to steal 25,000 – from me - and more from all the American people – Then let his company and all the rich-greedy banks – die by the law.
    Find a house – move in – millions of lawsuits to evict – everybody – courts overwhelmed – after 7 years – it’s your home.

    What’s that saying – just give the rich-greedy enough rope to hang themselves?

    Hey Mozilo – Just make sure – there are film crews around – when you jump from a window – Okay? - That way – It can be - YouTube’s most popular.
    Humm – Now where to post what to do?

    I think UA is going to see lots more growth ahead. I have been monitoring their website and noticed that a number of their shoe sizes are sold out! Nike's status at the top of the U.S market could be in jeopardy in about 5 years. Reply

    What a copy-cat, weak evaluation of StanPac. Have you even looked into their debt covenants? Do you know what kind of stance and flexibility the banks have? Just because a builder is doing bad, doesn't mean it can't generate the cash to cover interest payments. I'd be interested if you had any substantial data and/or logic to back this "fluff" call.

    Ames, TRMP has thus far been unwilling to change with the times and improve and modernize the resorts. The company is also highly leveraged to the Atlantic City market which is facing increased competition from nearly every state around NJ. In addition, the company is highly indebted thus increasing the overall risk . Reply
