Talk to a mortgage lender...they have all become agents for Fannie and Freddie. Few of them do their own underwriting anymore.

Where is your data? If you are so sure of CRA's effect where is the data? I mean every bank must disclose there numbers of CRA mortgages, so it is not hard to see what percentage of the overall market they are. Further, banks also publish what percentage of bad mortgages they have on the books. The numbers are there and CRA is a fraction. Look it up. Remember, we are talking about subprime mortgages. in 2006, of the top 25 subprime lenders only 1 was subject to CRA. In fact, Fannie and Freddie went from a high of 48 percentage of subprime loans in 2004 to 24 percent in 2006 because of the enormous private market for subprime. -Matt On Feb 5, 2010, at 10:39 AM, Jeff Broadwick wrote: > I'm really not interested in getting into a big hairy argument with > you on-list Matt.
