If Lenders Say ‘The Dog Ate Your Mortgage’
I believe in karma and I think the banks are due a little pay back. The below link is an article that anyone behind in their mortgage should read. I am not saying this is the case in all circumstances but I thought the irony was superb. Let me know what you think.

Foreclosure Mania
I was up very late the other night and found an infomercial about foreclosures…that was interesting. “Buy a new home for $400 with no mortgage or additional money due at signing”.
