Mortgage Payments and Stated Income Loans - July 24, 2008
from Mortgages Made Simple with Rick Gundzik July 24, 2008
Will the Housing relief bill help? This week we answer a listener's question whether or not the new housing bill will help him. We also had another listener ask us why he just can't seem to get a loan to buy a house. He has perfect credit, makes good money, and is putting in a big down payment. But he is self employed and his income is seasonal, high in the summer and low in the winter. He is a perfect candidate for a stated income loan. However, those loans do not exist anymore. Listen to "Mortgage Payments and Stated Income Loans" If you have any questions you would like us to answer on our show, please call our listener line at 714-519-7833 or email mortgagepodcast@gmail.com.

THE MONEY MASTERS ( 22 OF 22 )
from YouTube :: Tag // money July 24, 2008
THE MONEY MASTERS is a 3 1/2 hour non-fiction, historical documentary that traces the origins of the political power structure. The modern political power structure has its roots in the hidden manipulation and accumulation of gold and other forms of money. The development of fractional reserve banking practices in the 17th century brought to a cunning sophistication the secret techniques initially used by goldsmiths fraudulently to accumulate wealth. With the formation of the privately-owned Bank of England in 1694, the yoke of economic slavery to a privately-owned "central" bank was first forced upon the backs of an entire nation, not removed but only made heavier with the passing of the three centuries to our day. Nation after nation has fallen prey to this cabal of international central bankers. http://www.themoneymasters.com WATCH THE FULL FILM HERE: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5838419676528282544&hl=en Author: johnr25ks Keywords: MONEY MASTERS FEDERAL RESERVE FED BANKERS ROCKEFELLER DAVID ROTHSCHILD FAMILY FILM POLITICAL DOCUMENTARY ILLEGAL CENTRAL Added: July 24, 2008

Indymac, Fannie, Freddie and You - July 17, 2008
from Mortgages Made Simple with Rick Gundzik July 17, 2008
This week brought the collapse of Indymac Bank. Their collapse wreaked havoc in the financial markets, but it can have a greater effect on individual depositor's stress levels. This could be witnessed in the unnecessary bank run on Indymac this week. Many people do not realize they should not keep more than $100,000 in any bank. Insurance only covers up to $100,000 in deposits, any amount over that is negotiable to as low as 50 cents on the dollar. But for those who have a smaller amount on deposit, don't worry, you will get every penny back. We also discuss Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's current troubles and why they are so important to the housing market. Listen to "Indymac, Fannie, Freddie and You?"

Fed Adopts Plan to Curb Shady Mortgage Practices
from YouTube :: Videos by AssociatedPress July 14, 2008
BusinessFed Adopts Plan to Curb Shady Mortgage PracticesFed Adopts Plan to Curb Shady Mortgage PracticesThe Associated PressThe Federal Reserve has adopted rules to give home buyers more protection from the types of shady lending practices that have contributed to the housing crisis and propelled foreclosures to record highs. (July 14)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] Terms like 'bad credit, no credit, no money down' are some of the buzz words lenders have used to get borrowers to sign onto expensive home loans. Loans they increasingly cannot afford. These dubious practices have hurt many of the riskiest "subprime" borrowers _ people with tarnished credit histories or low incomes. In an effort to reign in these practices, the Federal Reserve has adopted rules to give home buyers more protections. [Notes:Bulletpoint graphic]Under the new rules, lenders - Would be barred from from making loans without proof of a borrower's income. - Would have to ensure risky borrowers set aside money to pay for taxes and insurance. - Would be restricted from penalizing risky borrowers who pay loans off early. - Would be prohibited from making a home loan without considering a borrower's ability to repay from sources other than the home's value. [Notes:B-roll] The rules may not get a test for some time. There are fewer home buyers these days, given all the problems in the housing and credit markets.And some of the shady practices _ along with some lenders _ have not survived the mortgage meltdown. ___ ___, The Associated Press.(****END****) Author: AssociatedPress Keywords: fed mortgage crisis adopts plan curb shady practices Added: July 14, 2008

Housing Relief Bill, Will it help You - July 10, 2008
from Mortgages Made Simple with Rick Gundzik July 10, 2008
The House of Representatives recently passed the Housing Relief Bill. This latest economic stimulus type Bill which must still pass the Senate has the following three goals: 1. Help distressed homeowners, 2. Tax credit for First time homebuyers and 3. Permanently increase Fannie Mae loan limits to $625,000. The most shocking provision of the Bill requires lenders to reduce a borrower's loan balance to 85% of the home's appraised value. The distressed borrower will then be able to refinance to an FHA loan. The tax credit for first time homebuyers will be $8,000. However, it will only be eligible for homes purchased from April 2008 until April 1, 2009. And finally, it will increase loan limits to $625,000 to try and keep the high cost states humming along.

Fortunately we want you to be armed with knowledge so you get the best loan possible. We answer this question in depth and take a quick step on the soapbox about the real estate industry.

Making a Recession Great
from YouTube :: Tag // business June 28, 2008
http://www.digitalgoldmoney.com/ Democrats recently adopted a budget with massive tax hikes, many of which are directed at those Americans who can least afford them. By allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire in 2010, this budget will raise income taxes not only on those in the highest income brackets, but raises the lowest bracket from 10% to 15% as well. The child tax credit would drop from $1000 to $500. Senior citizens relying on investment income would be hurt by increases in dividend and capital gains taxes. It's not just that the Democrats want to raise taxes on the rich. They want to raise taxes on everybody. The problem is, policing the world is expensive, and if elected officials insist upon continuing to fund our current foreign policy, the money has to come from somewhere. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have already cost us over 1 trillion dollars. The Democrats' budget gives the President all the funding he needs for his foreign policy, so one wonders how serious they ever were about ending the war. While Democrats propose to tax and spend, many Republicans aim to borrow and spend, which hurts the taxpayer just as much in the long run. Supporting a welfare state is expensive as well. Over half of our budget goes to mandatory entitlements. The total cost of government now eats up over half of our national income, as calculated by Americans for Tax Reform, and government is growing at an unprecedented rate. The worst part is, the economy is shrinking. The bottom line is that Washington has a serious spending addiction. While both parties debate how to raise the revenue, both parties seem happy to spend over 3 trillion dollars of your money in various ways. While some in Washington criticize the war in Iraq, very few criticize the interventionist mindset that got us into the war in the first place. Many so-called "Iraq War critics," criticize this administration rather than truly opposing the decades old policies that led to war. They claim they will eventually get the troops out of Iraq, but the danger is that they simply plan to move them around to other countries, not bring them home. The American people want peace. Minding our own business is the best way to achieve it. Not only is it also a whole lot cheaper, but free trade and friendship with other countries benefits all involved. This spending spree is exactly the wrong policy for an economy on the brink of recession. History has shown that all empires eventually crumble under a worthless currency and with an exhausted military. Since too many of our nation's leaders haven't taken the time to learn from history, we are seeing mistakes repeated through recently enacted policies such as the new House budget. http://www.digitalgoldmoney.com/ Author: DigiGold Keywords: economy housing bubble debt inflation fiat currency big government fed federal reserve falling dollar gold standard Added: June 28, 2008

FHA Loans, 2nd Homes and Rental Homes - June 26, 2008
from Mortgages Made Simple with Rick Gundzik June 26, 2008
FHA loans can be the greatest thing since sliced bread for some people. A buyer can receive gift funds, use a non-occupying co-borrower and put less money down than on your typical home loan. These are great loans for 1st time homebuyers or just about anyone who needs a little extra push to buy a home. We also answer a listener's question regarding the difference between a 2nd home and an investment property. There are different qualifications, interest rates and a few other things we discuss that you need to be aware of.

Fed Funds Futures
from recent posts - blip.tv (beta) June 25, 2008
This is a good day to talk about the Fed funds rate and Fed funds rate futures. Traders can buy and sell futures based on the Fed funds rate and expectations for changes in that rate. If you think the Fed will raise rates in the future you would sell these futures and if you think the Fed will lower rates, you would buy these futures contracts. These are a great way for institutional traders to hedge interest rate risk and speculate on changes in the future.
