I have a friend in Corona, CA who is yet another statistic in the subprime home financnig fiasco. He purchased his home for $525,000 2 years ago, and it is now worth about $400,000 and still potentially falling. He plans to walk away.
I am looking to buy a home. I have about $20,000 I can use. Is there any way I could use that and refi with him, and we both own the house? To kind of help bail him out and avoid foreclosure? A benefit to both the bank and us. Although that would also seem like a short sale to himself…Maybe only the bank can answer that but maybe an experienced banker is on here and knows the insides of current home financing situations.
Thanks

Anyone know if any government help is available to people on unemployment to help in the purchase of a home. Possibly with this stimulus package?All types of help is available to help you stay in your home, to avoid foreclosure, but is there any help for those of us who have already lost our home?

I want to get one credit card to rebuild credit. What’s the best one right now. I hear Capital One is a really bad one. We filed chapter 7 after losing a business and get tons of offers. I don’t plan on using it other than to just keep a small balance and show good payment history. We are working on getting back into a house in the next year. We sold our house to avoid foreclosure and are currently renting.
