The results of the housing bust are all over California and millions of Californians are feeling it every single day in the form of higher bills, huge debts, and looming foreclosures on beloved homes. Tales of predatory lending in which unscrupulous mortgage companies commonly tricked prospective home owners with low introductory interest rates on high rate mortgages they could never afford flood the news papers and touch millions of lives of everyday people just like you. High-risk mortgages once flourished in a world where lenders and new owners alike scrambled for new properties they could not afford. It seemed not too long ago that the housing market would never die. After all, land is a limited commodity, isn't it?

But like all things that are growing out of control, the housing boom could not last forever and now thousands watch in horror as their expensive mortgage rates reset to higher prices. Making it even worse, the expensive land and homes that home owners thought would grow in value beyond their wildest dreams has instead become a source of horrible nightmares as the value of the purchased land and homes rapidly deflates. Mortgage lenders are also feeling the pinch as the rates of new loans drops quickly and the number of homes in foreclosure rises. Lenders do not want to really foreclose your home as foreclosure is actually a very bad deal fro the lenders. When a lender has to foreclose a home, they must then resell it at a much lower market value which means that the lenders can not recoup their losses from the original loan to back the sale of the home as the value of the foreclosed homes is always much less than the original loan price. Home and land owners are loosing badly in this economy. Banks and lenders are loosing even more than home owners as the home owners continue to suffer. Surely there has to be something that benefits both the beleaguered homeowner and the repentant lenders?
