  • CBRE: All That Real Estate Money Out There Waiting... [View article]
    Judy,

    Sooner or later we are going to hear slightly different tune.

    If the automakers get bailed out, you can be sure the real estate industry with it's mighty force all over the country will demand a bailout for themselves.

    You will see crying babies and 85 year old realtors on TV making their case for government money for realtors, developers and managers.

    Most likely, our new leader and congress / senate will buy the office buildings and condo towers for their social agenda.

    But if you can't afford the fully amortizing payment, what do you do then? How many people would be able to make the new mortgage payment? (It's probably easier to earn that much in LA than in Reno, NV, but you get my drift.)
    ----------------------...
    One has to do the same thing that all other hard working Americans have done for a very long time.......

    Declare bankruptcy, cut your credit card, give back the Hummer, stop drinking $5 latte, rent a small cheap apartment, drive a 10 year old junk, throw away your cel phone......... I can go on and on!

    Let's get one thing clear - bankers have never been in business of losing money. On the otherhand, they are known for asking for a pound of flesh! It is high time that we start placing the blame where it belongs - the reckless gamblers and social climbers. Second mortgage should be looked down upon not glamorized in to some kind of exotic investment. House is to live in and raise family not a casino.
