Last week the Bush Administration proposed a $700 billion to $1 trillion rescue plan for the financial and real estate industry. The heart of the plan is to purchase bad debtloans from the lenders thereby relieving their bad loans so they can concentrate on making good loans (talk about a bailout funded by the taxpayer). Personally it is appalling that the government is going to spend 1 trillion dollars of tax money to bail out the banks. This is the equivalent of you or I running up $250 Cleveland Indians Hats ,000 of credit card and short term debt and the government wiping the debt clean. Sure... it is great for the bank but don't forget the bill is being footed by you and I the taxpayer. Plus, pumping huge amounts of dollars into the economy is a devaluation of our currency giving us less buying power! I've been a broken record that there has never been a housing crisis... just a money shortage that has been manufactured. Setting aside my personal opinion if we look at this from a purely selfish business standpoint as a real estate investor it can be a very good thing. The Banks Make Money Making Loans. If you don't understand Fractional Reserve Banking you are handicapped in understanding the big picture - there is a good definition at http:en.wikipedia.orgwikiFractional-reserve_banking. To summarize fractional reserve banking means the bank's loan money without having any of their own money collateralizing the loans then the banks collect interest and fees money created out of thin air. If you deposit $10,000 the bank is able to make a loan of $80,000 and the bank collect points Cleveland Indians T-Shirts , interest and fees on money that did not cost them anything. Their investment is ZERO in the loan. I know this might sound crazy... but look it up and research the subject. The important thing to remember is banks are in the business of making loans. With the tightening of money lending the strong banks are not only surviving but they are now getting government bailouts and when they start lending again in mass the surviving banks will have increased profits because of decreased competition. The one trillion dollar bailout for the economy signals a green light for the banks to start lending. The government is not only taking the banks bad debt off the books but the government has taken over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac which currently buys approximately 90% of the loans on the open market. The translation is we have a taxpayer bailout AND the taxpayer through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be buying the majority of the new loans! What To Do Right Now? Realize that a speeding locomotive does not stop on a dime. Foreclosures will continue to rise and be offset by buyers coming back into the markets. With time the course of direction will be turned as buyers rush to the market and properties will regain their values quickly. As a real estate investor stay close to the action. Be on the lookout for real estate deals that can be bought for a fraction of their value, bought ?subject to' and kept as profitable rentals, or for your own personal residence that can be bought at prices not seen in over a decade.
