``About half of all modified investor-owned mortgages, undertaken to help troubled borrowers and investors looking to cut losses, re-default within six months, according to a new quarterly report by federal bank regulators. These are loans that are sliced and diced and sold to investors in the form of securities. That compares with a 25 percent re-default rate for modified loans held in-house at banks, according to data as of Sept. 30.''

Well considering the Investors all gave bad mods in the first place with minimum savings to the client and horrible re-rates! I just don't understand why the investors didn't get it the first time! Anyone who thinks they gave a good deal was wrong. If they would have re- modified the loan in to a simple 3 yr . fix it would have gave them a chance to sustain positive cash flow, but now investors just want the house back and put back on the market!
