Sorry charlie, you renters will pay too! The difference is we'll own our home and not have payments.That's great news. All the folks that made stupid decisions are counting on you few geniuses that keep bragging about how smart your are about homeownership to bail them out.

I'll tell you one thing I would change that would make it real easy to spot the crooks in the future: I would make it a requirement that each deed and loan contract on the Maryland online land records had the name of the appraiser, the amount of the appraisal, the name of all real estate agents involved, and the company and name of the mortgage brokers involved.
If you had that kind of data to look at the crooks would be dead in the water.
If the statement is out of date, why would it be necessary to contact the local government to get it online?
See you're very confused. I just paid off my home at 47. I own it, not the bank. All that $$ that was going to the bank now goes into my savings acct. Yours keeps going to your landlord. Not only that, I have a nice equity line available to me (with tax write offs) should I like to use it.
See post 289.
I'm hoping she'll be proud of me.

So if you're that delusional to think you can "sock away money", I won't even feel sorry for ya when reality sets in.
Who's better off?
Tooooo late.....I figured it would be better not to get the thread all screwed up and off topic.
And I’m going to use the money I saved by renting, to add to my current down payment funds for a well cared for foreclosure….or maybe this month we’ll take a trip out west…..or maybe I too will add it to the toy fund…what’s your point Mike?? Do you not believe there was a housing bubble? Do you simply not believe that Tax Payers are bailing out homeowners? Your current comments do not reflect the reality that has come to light in the last few months. Sure, 12 months ago I could somewhat understand the “tin foil hat” comments, but now, with the trillions the government is dolling out to pay for this mess? Come on Mike…something went awry..care to pontificate or just continue with the Jr. High antics?See post 289.
And remember, rent is due the first of the month. That's about a week away.
Myself, I'm going to take that payment I used to send to the bank and drop in in the "Mikey wants a new toy" fund.
If no one is allowed to contact them...how are the appraisals being scheduled?
You beat me by a year! I pay $2000 (tax) a year to live in my horrible investment.
My car is paid off too.
Maybe if I paid rent I could be better off?
BTW - at settlement, the agents were required to sign and loan officers had to be disclosed. Appraisers? Banks hire them, buyers pay them, nobody is allowed (now) to contact them.
I agree though, it should all be posted on a public site.
