LOCK THOSE RATE!! 4.00% as of today!

[ChunkyMonkey]

Hello,

If you have home equity line of credit, business line of credit, etc, lock those rate today! 4% on 15 yr, 4.25% on 30 yr! Depending on your lender floor rate... some have gone under 4%.

FYI

Thats an understatement... if we rejected loans in the gray area, the Fed would cut off our funding and sue us for 'redlining.' Now they are blaming the banks for the downfall.

Bah!

Bah!

I have seen some banks doing some pretty shady stuff;
Not necessarily illegal, but questionable.

You mean like some car salesmen, appliance salesmen, pawnshop brokers, gun store owners and so on do? The same thing applies everywhere. Buyer beware, don't sign anything you don't understand 100% and stick with referred bankers! The great thing about the current market, only 1 out of 3 banker/brokers are left in the business. In many ways, the bad ones are long gone.

I can afford my house; for now.

If I take out a loan on the percieved equity I have in my home (based off of a perception of it appreciating in value), and later run into bad times where I need to sell my home but the value of my home has actually depreciated (what? that could never happen...except in 2008, 2009, and 2010), I'd be screwed because I'd be so upside down on the whole deal.

Happened to LOTS of folks.

I, for one, will never gamble with the security of my home by taking out additional loans against it.

Just sayin.
