Book excerpt: This paper describes subprime lending in the mortgage market and how it has evolved through time. Subprime lending has introduced a substantial amount of risk-based pricing into the mortgage market by creating a myriad of prices and product choices largely determined by borrower credit history (mortgage and rental payments, foreclosures and bankruptcies, and overall credit scores) and down payment requirements. Although subprime lending still differs from prime lending in many ways, much of the growth (at least in the securitized portion of the market) has come in the least-risky (A- ) segment of the market. In addition, lenders have imposed prepayment penalties to extend the duration of loans and required larger down payments to lower their credit risk exposure from high-risk loans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, a new mortgage market offering loans at low interest rates and for little or no money down has given low-income people an opportunity to pursue the American dream of homeownership. The resulting wave in home buying promised to stabilize neighborhoods and families, boost the economy, and reduce crime. In many ways, the optimists were correct, but now, less than fifteen years later, the subprime mortgage market is collapsing, threatening to take the rest of the housing sector along with it.Subprime Mortgages: America's Latest Boom and Bust analyzes how the subprime market emerged, why it is in crisis, and how we can reform public policy to avert disaster. An attendant examination of the rental market also offers recommendations for shoring up what may be the best housing option for some families.

Book Synopsis Money for Nothing and Checks for Free by : Paul S. Mills
Download or read book Money for Nothing and Checks for Free written by Paul S. Mills and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a number of warning signs, the U.S. "subprime mortgage crisis" became a headline issue in February 2007. Notwithstanding the bankruptcy of numerous mortgage companies, historically high delinquencies and foreclosures, and a significant tightening in subprime lending standards, the impact thus far on core U.S. financial institutions has been limited. This paper reviews the history and structure of the subprime market. The results suggest that new origination and funding technology appear to have made the financial system more stable at the expense of undermining the effectiveness of consumer protection regulation. Potential solutions to the management of this trade-off are then explored.

Download or read book Housing and the Financial Crisis written by Edward L. Glaeser and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional wisdom held that housing prices couldn’t fall. But the spectacular boom and bust of the housing market during the first decade of the twenty-first century and millions of foreclosed homeowners have made it clear that housing is no different from any other asset in its ability to climb and crash. Housing and the Financial Crisis looks at what happened to prices and construction both during and after the housing boom in different parts of the American housing market, accounting for why certain areas experienced less volatility than others. It then examines the causes of the boom and bust, including the availability of credit, the perceived risk reduction due to the securitization of mortgages, and the increase in lending from foreign sources. Finally, it examines a range of policies that might address some of the sources of recent instability.

This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzes the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis on urban neighborhoods in Mass. Explores the topic using a data set that matches race and income info. with property-level, transaction data. Much of the subprime lending in the state was concentrated in urban neighborhoods and that minority homeownerships created with subprime mortgages have proved exceptionally unstable in the face of rapid price declines. Subprime lending did not, as commonly believed, lead to a substantial increase in homeownership by minorities but instead generated turnover in properties owned by minority residents. The particularly dire foreclosure situation in urban neighborhoods actually makes it somewhat easier for policymakers to provide remedies. Illus.

Book Synopsis An Introduction to the Subprime Mortgage Market and the 2008-2009 Financial Crisis by : Robert Stretcher
Download or read book An Introduction to the Subprime Mortgage Market and the 2008-2009 Financial Crisis written by Robert Stretcher and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of summer 2008, the subprime mortgage market has become a contributing drag on the financial sector, with the S&P index dropping to its lowest level in more than a decade, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling below 10,000 for the first time since October 2004. The financial sector turmoil, in turn, worsened the already dreadful situation in mortgage and credit markets. Losses on the subprime mortgage market arose from a two stage process. First, financial intermediaries drove the expansion of the subprime mortgage market. Second, borrowers stopped making payments when default was optimal for their situation. We often see and hear new stories where the repetition of the terminology convinces us of the importance of the issues. Many do not have the background or knowledge of the evolution of the issues, or lack the framework with which to develop a meaningful understanding. Subprime lending and its significance to current events is one such issue. A primer on subprime lending and its relationship to current events in 2008-2009, it seems, would appear to be a timely exposition.This paper explores origins of the subprime mortgage lending crisis and gives insights of the impacts subprime mortgages have on the recent financial issues. Finally, some policy options aimed at preventing the crisis from worsening in the future are offered.
Book Synopsis Why Do Borrowers Make Mortgage Refinancing Mistakes? by : Sumit Agarwal
Download or read book Why Do Borrowers Make Mortgage Refinancing Mistakes? written by Sumit Agarwal and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Refinancing a mortgage is often one of the biggest and most important financial decisions that people make. Borrowers need to choose the interest rate differential at which to refinance and, when that differential is reached, they need to take the steps to refinance before rates change again. The optimal differential is where the interest saved by refinancing equals the sum of refinancing costs and the option value of refinancing. Using a unique panel data set, we find that approximately 59% of borrowers refinance sub-optimally - with 52% of the sample making errors of commission (choosing the wrong rate), 17% making errors of omission (waiting too long to refinance), and 10% making both errors. Financially sophisticated borrowers make smaller mistakes, refinancing at rates closer to the optimal rate and waiting less after mortgage rates reach the borrowers' trigger rates. Evidence suggests borrowers learn from their refinancing experiences as they make smaller mistakes on their second refinancing than on their first one.

Book Synopsis Moving toward Integration by : Richard H. Sander
Download or read book Moving toward Integration written by Richard H. Sander and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reducing residential segregation is the best way to reduce racial inequality in the United States. African American employment rates, earnings, test scores, even longevity all improve sharply as residential integration increases. Yet far too many participants in our policy and political conversations have come to believe that the battle to integrate America’s cities cannot be won. Richard Sander, Yana Kucheva, and Jonathan Zasloff write that the pessimism surrounding desegregation in housing arises from an inadequate understanding of how segregation has evolved and how policy interventions have already set many metropolitan areas on the path to integration. Scholars have debated for decades whether America’s fair housing laws are effective. Moving toward Integration provides the most definitive account to date of how those laws were shaped and implemented and why they had a much larger impact in some parts of the country than others. It uses fresh evidence and better analytic tools to show when factors like exclusionary zoning and income differences between blacks and whites pose substantial obstacles to broad integration, and when they do not. Through its interdisciplinary approach and use of rich new data sources, Moving toward Integration offers the first comprehensive analysis of American housing segregation. It explains why racial segregation has been resilient even in an increasingly diverse and tolerant society, and it demonstrates how public policy can align with demographic trends to achieve broad housing integration within a generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: In late 2008, the U.S. suffered one of its greatest disasters in quite some time, the subprime mortgage crisis. It affected not only the housing market but the whole financial system as a whole. Cheap methods and greed are very possible motivators, leaving lenders, investment banks, and investors bankrupt. The whole system was going to fail from the beginning and could have been stopped or altered to have less damage, and yet only a few were able to see it’s great flaws. This caused thousands, and possibly millions of Americans to go homeless and unemployed. It gave more debt to the U.S. government worsening its ties with different countries. Since America has millions of international businesses and pledges, other countries were affected by its financial collapse. The actions and responses of the government, banks, and citizen themselves helped America to get up on both feet. This paper will explore the subprime mortgage to better understand the reason of its effect and collapse, to help others understand what it is and what can be done about it. Even if it had been almost a decade since the collapse, the subprime mortgages’ effects still affect us to this day. It’s also very likely that another similar event can strike anytime soon, this paper will help those keep a look out for tragedies and systems that he/she could avoid and potentially survive.
