    Predatory Lending and Inequality

    Predatory lending has caused many conflicts in the American society. Victims who fall for predatory lending are usually low income homeowners or those having financial difficulties. Consumers do not realize that mortgage payments are impossible until 3-4 years after predatory lending. This imposes a significant role in the destruction of the American dream. Constance M. Ruzich, a teacher at Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh, and A. J. Grant, also a teacher at RMU, state in their essay, “Subprime mortgages are home loans made at higher rates of interest to burrowers who represent higher credit risks and have lower credit scores.” People with subprime mortgages have a difficult time paying their taxes. Predatory lending, or subprime mortgages, has significantly taken part in the downfall of the economy. Ruzich and Grant say, “Ten years ago, few Americans had heard of subprime mortgages or predatory lending, but by 2008, a survey of economists had identified the effects of the mortgage crisis as the number one threat to the U.S. economy, greater than that of terrorism or conflict in the Middle East.” This statement shows how these lendings have affected the economy at a reasonably rapid rate. The economy of the United States has crumbled at a very accelerated rate like a house on fire. It is no longer what it used to be and in only getting…

    Bank Bailout 2008

    c. No solving of problems “Let’s hope we are all wealthy and retired by this house of cards falters” (Bloomberg, 2007). The credit crisis is known as the “House of Cards”, for years the banking industry has transformed many American lives, which has resulted in a troublesome economy. Many factors led to the credit crisis, such as the rise and fall of the housing market, and inaccurate credit ratings helped to create the sub-prime mortgage crisis (Issues & Controversies, 2010). Low interest rates developed easy credit, in which people could get a mortgage and credit cards based on inaccurate credit ratings with the creation of sub-prime mortgages. People have the ability to own a home, with no down payment or fixed income. In August of 2007, the United States began a loss of confidence in securitized mortgages, which resulted in the Federal Reserve injecting $20 trillion dollars into the financial markets to ease the situation (“Obama Sends Warning to Big Banks, 2010). The most important question to be answered in the decade is “How a loss of $500 billion dollars from the sub-prime mortgage resulted in a $20…

    Foreclosure Crisis

    Foreclosure Crisis

    The cause of this mortgage crisis, according to many leading financial experts, was subprime loans and adjustable rate mortgages. These loans encouraged borrowers to assume unaffordable mortgages with the belief they could refinance later with a lower rate. Since 1998 the number of subprime loans borrowers bought homes with was well over seven million. One million of these homes are being lost to foreclosure because homeowners could no longer afford the payment and the loans are now in default. The reason many of these borrowers have entered into foreclosure is a result of these loans. After the initial term has expired, the rate has increased to a much higher rate, therefore leaving a mortgage payment the homeowner cannot afford. These foreclosures are creating an economic tragedy across the nation that is causing the housing and stock markets, the banking industry, and many other job markets severe financial hardships. It is time for the government to intervene into the subprime mortgage crisis and bailout borrowers that are defaulting on their mortgages. I do believe we need the government to step in and assist homeowners that face foreclosure. But the government needs to…

    Book Review: the Big Short by Michael Lewis

    Learning about the subprime lending scheme made me think about when I first bought a house. Lenders are pressured to get people into loans that they don’t qualify for. They also put people in adjustable rate mortgages in which people with not so good credit get a great interest rate to begin with but then go up after a certain period, usually about two years. This caused a lot of foreclosures because…

    Keynesian Economics and the Mortgage Crisis

    The housing bubble One of the factors that led to the mortgage crisis was the housing bubble. It started in 2001 and climaxed in 2005. A housing bubble is characterized by rapid increase in the value of real estate properties to an extent that it can no longer be sustained. Prices of real estate property are driven through the roof, well beyond the affordability of the people as their incomes remain fixed.…

    Rise and Fall Housing Market

    Causes of the Housing Crisis The term bubble has been used synominously with the housing crisis. What is a bubble? According to the Webster dictionary an economic bubble is, “a state of booming economic activity that often ends in a sudden collapse.” American economist Robert Shiller of Yale University describes an economic bubble as “A bubble occurs when exaggerated expectations of future prices increase unusual demand either by people who fear being priced out of a market or by investors hoping to make a lot of money fast. A bubble is a self-fulfilling prophecy for a while, as successive rounds of buyers push prices higher and higher. But the willingness to pay higher and higher prices in fragile: It will end whenever buyers perceive that prices are no longer going up. Hence bubbles carry the seeds of their own destruction. Only time is needed for bubbles to end.” While there are many variations defining a bubble, all are consistent that there will be a “pop” or end to the bubble.…

    New Century Case

    1.1) Brief of the New Century Financial Corporation Case Over the past two decades, nearly half of the homeowners obtained their loans through subprime mortgage lending. Subprime mortgages were becoming increasingly ordinary in daily life of business for homeowners over the past two decades. However, numerous lending institutions provided home loans to borrowers who have high credit risks and are not be able to payback the loans. New Century, which is the second largest subprime lender in the country, prospered over the last decade. However, its sudden collapse following the restatement of company’s financial statements, contributed significantly to the subsequent events that eventually lead to the plunge of global financial systems in 2008. Along with New Century, Bear Stern, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch are major players, which are brought down by the subprime mortgages fiasco. This case briefly provided us the meltdown of the subprime mortgages market and how it eventually leaded to an unprecedented global financial crisis.…

As the subprime mortgage crisis accelerated, the increasing number of people falling behind on payments or defaulting on credit card debt…
