...some concerns, so we bought a loan-performance database of mortgage-backed securities. We saw some pretty astonishing things. The starter rates were very high, between 7% and 9%, and within a couple of years they could jump by 600 basis points. No one could handle that level of payment shock. In fact nobody was - they were just refinancing...
...going to say it's not difficult. We're seeing this at IndyMac. For a lot of these nontraditional mortgages, income was never verified so as part of the modification process you have to go back and verify income to know how to give them what their affordable payment will be. But it needs to be done. The FDIC did massive loan work-outs during the S&L days.

...more consumer-friendly experience, Aetna asks how big a BodyGuard plan you need. WellPoint's Tonik line lets you decide whether you are a Thrill-Seeker, a Part-Time Daredevil or a Calculated Risk-Taker (choices that come down to less fun details like the size of your co-payment or deductible).

That's $100 more a month, and $1,200 more a year, than the same loan would have cost them a few weeks ago. For buyers on a budget, that means they can afford less house for the same amount of money. Conversely, sellers would...
...settlement paid to Allen, but that the funds came from Mahoney's business. "I have no reason to believe for there to be an inkling of any impropriety" as far as campaign or taxpayer money being used, Isaacs said. The attorney did not elaborate on what the settlement payment was for. "Both sides are bound by confidentiality," he said. "There's an agreement between the parties that limit what I can say with regards to the resolution...
