Fha has been the subprime lender



I am in the foreclosure industry and deal with FHA homes. I have also been in real estate and construction for 19 years now. Yes they loan subprime but it's not nearly like it was pre 08' so not sure why you're ing .

There will always be subprime but my point is it's not crazy stuff like 110% LTV loans, no doc/stated income loans, etc.

Home prices are outpacing wages nationally. The national average of home price to wage is 4.1. Growing up the rule of thumb was 2 to 2.5. Either wages need to catch up (not likely) or prices need to come down. I guess the only difference is in 2008 many people had put 0% down so they were instantly upside down. That is unlikely nowadays so people won't be as stuck as they were before because less should be upside down.
