Update: Bank losing money nothing to see here move along part the second

● Property Owner CITIBANK % EMC MORTGAGE CORPORATION
● 5 Bed, 4 Bath
● 4,570 Sq. Ft.
● Year Built: 1990
● Was on the MLS at $724,900
Now On the MLS at $670,500
Purchased on 5/11/2006 $1,300,000
● Former loss of $575,100 or about 44.2%
● Current losst of 629,500 or about 48.4%

So one month later "the market" has fallen over four percent! Assume six months and you can write off another 25% of this house's value, that's over a $150k. And 12 months, well let's just say buying now at any price is such a bad, bad gamble.

If you are wondering why I'm posting this place it's because one of my readers is very interested in it and you know who you are :)

Again I apologize if any of this information is incorrect but this house is a little out of my usual area so I'm using sources that I'm not fully comfortable with and some guess work as well.

Is my blog to blame for the broken link to realtor.com? Yes, yes it is, that is the power of my tiny unread blog to drive realtors nuts! Unless its not. Any way you can't hide from the Google! Courtesy of the Google a new unbroken link!!!
