The ability of a home buyer to get their hands on money
that they could not afford to pay back, to me , is the underlying
cause of this Real Estate Bubble that we find ourselves in .


It's too simplistic a statement , and it ignores the part
that real estate investors played in this mess , but
ultimately , without the ability of customers (homebuyers)
to over leverage themselves , the investors would not have
been able to feed into the frenzy .


Someone(s) had to feed Cash into this group .
Here is a NYTimes article of one of the bit players
in this fiasco, that is about to go under .

We are far far from seeing the last of this Enronish Mess


THINGS aren’t going very swimmingly for investors in NovaStar Financial, a subprime mortgage originator in Kansas City, Mo. Its stock plummeted last week on news that the company lost $64.05 a share in the third quarter, that it had canceled its preferred stock dividend and that it was no longer able to reap the tax advantages of a real estate investment trust status.

The stock ended the week at $1.72, down from $40 in June.
