If this is the wisdom being proferred by FHFA, we're in for a rough ride...

Oh boy, , here we go. . the lender doesn't want you to know the current value of your home. . they will just refinance your balance at a lower rate. . but be careful. . . your home that was worth $200,000.00 of which you did a 100% loan when you purchased it is now worth $150,000.00 but don't tell the borrower. :? . they may not want to know they are in a depreciating asset/market and their home is worth less. . . but guess what??? They will go ahead and collect interest on your full amount of $200,000.00 even tho it's only worth $150,000.00 . . WHAT???? OH!!!! THIS IS A GREAT IDEA . . . AGAIN, WHEN IS SOMEONE GOING TO LET THE PEOPLE THAT KNOW HOW MORTGAGES WORK PUT THEIR 2CENTS IN??? :cry: Permalinkadd a comment | go to forum thread
