ParticipantThis is a critical question for the RE market. Becuase if they do go up over 7%, the RE market will have huge pressure to reduce prices even more than they are already. The trends we know are now in action…rising unemployment,recession, tightening credit, rising real inflation,etc… are providing downward pricing pressure. But I’ve always thought that mortgage rates followed T Bills pretty closely. But the risk-reward model makes more sense to me. I’ve heard believable arguements on both sides for it going up and down. Can anyone with more in-depth insight chime in on this?????

ParticipantThe analysis is clear. It’s a Fanny and Freddy bail out with a BS bone thrown to the “people” so that the title of it can have some accuracy.

ParticipantIf this analysis is accurate…he’s right. It wont help anyone in CA, or at least very few. But the bail out to Fanny and Freddie is clearly there.
Standard politcal garbage. It shows they did something in a time of need and it accomplished a major bail out. What’s more interesting is the graph he has of income disparity since WWII.July 28, 2008 at 11:33 AM in reply to: Housing Bailout Bill – Detailed Analysis – No Help for SD or CA… #248347peterb
