Re: The American dream
I live in a townhouse that has an association. Once you get over the fact that you don't have to cut your own lawn, pay for the water, or upkeep the outside of the house, you realize the President of your association is a communist.
I think I would much rather cut my own lawn. Appartments, condos, and townhouses are only good for renting out (a.k.a. real retirement), except when the communist puts a 10% max on rental units in the neighborhood. Rent to own will fix that though.

It was CW that didn't want to loan to a foreclosure. We could have went someplace else and got the FHA loan for it. __________________

We could have went someplace else and got the FHA loan for it. country wide is going under, our mortgage person wouldn't even go through them. other lenders will lend for foreclosure but the bank has to agree with the price and a bunch of other ----. so its not as easy.
since i got laid off in december, i was making 34.50 an hour there... but it wasn't very steady, i didn't qualify for FHA because i made too much money... but the job i just started this month is very secure but i had to take about a 6/hour pay cut... but i still get about 2400 bi monthly... i got my first check today... i made $953 in three days
i decided to bite the bullet and get a house... should be worth it. my payment will be about 1200 a month including everything, like insurance, taxes, etc...

Re: The American dream
I think if I was trying to be crafty right now, I'd get pre-approved for a certain amount, and then go to the courthouse to view the foreclosures going down and try to scoop one of those bitches. Getting a smokin deal on a car part is one thing, but knowing you really kicked someone while they were down and stole their house is a whole new level of ------- smart.
