Ten Reasons to Invest in Florida

When you move in you will hate your neighbors. You will pay $6,000 in property taxes (based on market value) only to find your neighbors are paying 2,700 a yr because they are locked in because they moved there 10 yrs ago. Nice Welcome, eh?? You're insurance is 4 times what it was ten yrs ago (if you can get it). The crime rate is very high! Overall i would never return to what was my home state. My kids have just moved out never to return also. Salaries are low.

E*Trade's 'First In, First Out' Position: Yes, 111M Shorts Can Be Wrong

E-Trades is in first mtges at a 70% LTV? Based on when the loan was made or the value today? Where are these mtge's?? A 70% LTV when made sounds pretty good except that it might be at 110% at this time. Also, the HELOC's. Same thing. Made at 80% or 100% LTV they are basically worthless if the first forecloses whether it's in LA or Atlanta. No recovery on these - just take a walk.
