•Subprime Mortgage Lending - 2007 Statement on Subprime Mortgage Lending
A second practice of concern to agencies and addressed in the Statement on Subprime Mortgage Lending is failure to disclose fully to the borrower how these ARMs will affect future payments. In addition, so-called “liar loans” are being underwritten by some less scrupulous subprime lenders. These loans are more politely referred to as “statement of income” loans: a potential borrower simply states on an application form how much money he makes. No verification of this income is required, nor is...
•Subprime Mortgage Lending - A Brief History
Subprime lending is not really a new phenomenon. The types of non-traditional loans that many subprime borrowers are taking out today have grown from something we used to call a “bridge loan.” These were typically very short-term loans with high interest rates that were intended to assist a person to buy a new home while the old home was still on the market. As soon as the old residence was sold, the owner would repay the bridge loan. Some of these non-traditional loans included a “balloon...
•Subprime Mortgage Lending - Expanded Guidance
Even in the late 1990s, subprime lending was becoming more and more of a problem. The 2001 Expanded Guidance was an expansion of earlier statements about this issue. The agencies' focus was the responsible use of subprime lending to assist subprime consumers to win back their credit ratings. Regaining lost credit would enable these people to enhance their financial situations. At the same time, the agencies stressed that lenders who assume a greater risk by lending to subprime individuals must...
•Subprime Mortgage Lending - Pieces of the Puzzle
The “prime” rate is the rate charged by all banks in the country. The prime rate doesn’t change regularly or often, only when 75% of the country’s top 30 banks decide they need to change it. People who have a decent credit rating are usually given mortgage and other loans at prime rate.
Subprime borrowers are people who probably have pretty poor credit ratings. They may have a history of bad financial management, perhaps including collection accounts, repossessions, maybe even a bankruptcy. At...

•Subprime Mortgage Lending - What Are Its Effects?
Subprime lending is really nothing new. It was originally designed to enable people with less-than-sterling FICO scores to purchase homes, cars, and other items for which they couldn't get conventional loans. Also known as "second chance" lending, its purpose was to provide responsible individuals with a second chance to become homeowners. In the mid-1990s, with real estate values continuing to climb, subprime lending became very popular. Unfortunately, many of the people who got involved with...

Someone who borrows at a subprime rate pays a higher rate of interest than the “prime,” or currently normal, rate of interest. Often, the only way people with a poor...
•Subprime Mortgage Lending: What’s it All About?
There’s a lot of talk in the media these days about subprime lending. Do you really know what it is? Essentially, subprime lending means loaning money at a rate of interest that is usually much higher than the “prime” rate.
