That’s the problem with your assumption. I can’t borrow directly from the party who’s currently holding my loan (Fannie May). I hope you’re aware of the difference between retail and wholesale. Borrower can’t get access to those money. We can only borrow at retail. I already stated that I looked into refi when my loan changed hands and would have to pay HIGHER rate than the rate I have.[/quote]
And you have no idea how much I despise the government’s role in forcing us to use middle men who’ve paid off someone in congress. If the government is taking the risk, then “We the People” are taking the risk, and should be rewarded by having direct access to OUR govt lenders.
There are so many areas where we’re forced to use middle men who do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but pocket profits that belong to either the government or the customers.
