I agree that things worked much better when larger downpayments were the norm. But just instituting that rule, going forward, won’t fix the current mess. The current mess needs to be unwound before we’ll be out of it. Unfortunately, the loan mods and other “fixes” for current underwater mortgagees is just an attempt to kick the can down the road.

My comments earlier were specific to the pre-fab homes in the link of the OP. These are NOT wood framed manufactured home from what I can tell. They are also pretty stunning.

(But they are NOT cheap. The price/sf is pretty darn high)

For construction info this is a more specific link on the site:

Thank you for posting that link. I’ve seen pdf scanned versions of the article – but they’re hard to read.

[quote=sdrealtor]A couple explanations. Some decided not to do them after all. Often in a short sale, the lender is looking for the selelr to make a contribution to mitigate the loss if they are able to come up with something. Some sellers refuse and some do so upfront/wilingly.[/quote]

Thanks, sdr. As I said – I have some ignorance on this since I’ve never been involved in a short sale. I didn’t realize that sellers had to kick in more than any lost equity (downpayment and subsequent payments.)
