It was not any sort of blame, just pointing out the concurrency of events. Every president gets the [president]oconomics label. Reaganomics, Clintonomics, Busheconomonomics, etc.

Interesting though that you see it as blame. Being closer to it all, I guess you have a better sense of it.

    There were/are a bunch on Kiawah too, a lot of the swells got a

    spend much time there, these were 1%er trophy casitas, so ejecting
    them was not likely a problem.  They also kept all that very
    hushhush on the island, not wanting to tarnish the Kiawah brand.

    But if you need to get them out, a sheriff can help after the
    proper notices and such.  In DC, the squatter probably has more
    rights than the new owner though, so YMMV.

    When we bought our house up near Boston, the PO left one of his
    loser kids there, we had to encourage him to leave in fairly
    emphatic terms, once discerning he was still alive and
    semi-functional.

            I was told by a realtor friend that the banks don't like to
            foreclose because then the bad asset moves to some other

            and it makes the bank look bad in audits or whatever, so
        they just
            let them ride without moving on the foreclosure.  I don't
        know how
            that all works, but it sorta makes sense.

                    Mortgage interest deduction is a scam. On every
        dollar in
                    interest you pay, you deduct 28 cents from your
        tax bill.
                    The only ones making out are the banks.

                    Spend a dollar, get 28 cents back. Better odds at
        a casino.

                    Pay the house off, and be done.

                    OR

                    Rent it out, buy a multi-million dollar mansion, don't
                    make a payment, and wait to see if the bank ever
        throws
                    you out. I have read a lot of stories about banks not
                    foreclosing for various reasons.
