Im sure it has, but who gives a shite im asking again..

This bailout crap that is going on.. is this going to make it harder on me as a first time home buyer to get a home loan?

You will pretty much have to do Fannie/Freddie (5% down min) or FHA.

That being said, they tended to be your better options anyways.

It is only harder if you have bad credit or no money

it depends on when you buy. Buy soon, and you are ok. Wait a year, might be tougher.

If you buy, make sure you buy for the right reasons. Don't expect much appreciation for probably 5 to 10 years. Renting is good idea right now.

if you dont qualify then you dont deserve to buy a home. thats one of the reasons we are in this mess now.

if you dont qualify do things to increase your income and decrease your outgo. hell i worked an extra job or 2 til i was nearly 50, but i'm set for the rest of my life now.

both my daughters finished college without any debt.
