i agree with Pat T. We are headed for a depression that only our great grandparents and grandparents went thru. I think it could be the "perfect storm". Feds cut intrist again from 5.25 to 5 flat. that is the rate banks lend money to each other and affect everything from credit cards to mortages. this may seam good as one can buy more house, but when the bubble pops and it already has in some states millions of home owners will be even more over extended as the house drops in value and equity is evaporiated.....
