Get Ready Your Home Values are Headed South
June 14, 2011
I have been sounding the alarm for the past couple years about what you can expect the value of your home to be in the future. So far I have been very accurate on my estimations. Well, all the signs are really starting to line up now. Congress can't seem to get it together and "THE" Chinese rating company says the U.S. is already defaulting on it loans. The question you really need to be asking yourself, are you and your family ready for what's next?

If you were to follow what the so called experts, like the National Association of Realtors, had to say last year about the housing market and purchased a home, you're not very happy today. Your new investment would have lost you roughly 8% in value. In other words, if you purchased a home for $200,000 last year (2010), it would now be worth $168,000. This means it cost you $1,333 per month to own your home and you haven't even made any mortgage payments yet.

Mortgage lending should take place on a competitive playing field without any government advantages. This bill is a step in the right direction towards privatizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for the sake of taxpayers and economic prosperity.
I'm tired of our government spending my money without my permission and you probably are too. A new bill has been introduced called H.R. 1182 GSE Bailout Elimination and Taxpayer Protection Act that would stop government sponsored enterprises such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from being bailout out by taxpayers.
