She’s an investor, she got screwed. I showed a little compassion instead of jumping on the gloat bandwagon and jumped on, probably because I’m posting as a mortgage broker, or broker from the industry in general, maybe next time I’ll reg a handle like ‘hot blonde’.
People made dumb mistakes and it’s not going to kill her but it’s definitely going to set her back financially. If she was in an investment club, oh well, can’t blame anyone for trying to be the next Donald Trump or whatever real estate mogul, dare to dream, unfortunately, by the time anything is public knowledge, it’s too late.
I’ll admit it, we’re not the most popular people in the world right now. LO’s/Brokers, we’re getting blamed for being a part of the mess that’s been created. But I love how the more intelligent posters recognize the individual as the individual instead of lumping me in with the profession like the sheeple on this board. Which makes me chuckle, when most talk about mindless sheeple, it’s usually themselves, they just don’t know it. Guys/gals who give out those neatly typed zingers to prove their intelligence by attacking a poster based on his profession or personal opinion. Good show of your mental and emotional IQ.
Bugs, I think you’re the appraiser. I’ve read some of your posts and admire your honesty in the business. I’m anticipating the shakeout and looking forward to working with more professionals that are just that, professionals, instead of the cellphone/car sales guys that are screaming for value and are moving on (makes me wonder where they’ll land next).
Temeculaguy, I can see why you’re one of the more popular posters on this board. Articulate, and eloquent even as a stranger, it speaks volumes of a persons’ character and values. I truly wish you the best in your research and search for a home. I hope you find what you’re after. You were the only poster that expressed your idea in a fashion that wasn’t demeaning or argumentative, my hat off to you sir.
As for the rest of you yahoos…good luck in whatever you’re looking for, hope you find it. Lighten up, be glad you’re renting, got some money socked away, and when your time is right who knows, might be a good looking, halfway smart mortgage broker to help you find a non option, non interest only, non Arm loan…duh, right, they’re called fixed mortgages. I got to run, see man about a repo job, maybe I can talk the owners into giving me the keys instead of taking it late at night, ooops, almost forgot, need to sell my bmw for that nice 10 year old Yugo I saw on the drive home. Weren’t the Yugoslavs suppose to come out with a station wagon version called the Wego…..that’s what I heard.
