Have you heard that not many lenders are passing out mortgages any more and it could affect buyers for Preforeclosure short sale discounted buyers?

If you've tried to get a loan to buy a house or any property, you probably do know. Without great credit, nobody wants to lend money.

That means mortgages that are held by people with really good credit are being sold at a discount. Why? Not because there is doubt they will pay but because the Note holder wants out.

Merrill Lynch lost $25,000,000,000.00 and still kept their doors open. Is that amazing? Yes, that is $25 Billion. Yes, with a B. Ouch! How do you keep your doors open after a loss like that?
