 The Honorable George W. Bush                                                                                                   President of the United States Dear Mr. President,It's with respect for the office of the presidency, I write this letter.  I believe, as well as many others who are in the same opinion, that the stimulus package you propose who a couple of days ago would put the nation in debt without any sizeable contribution to growth to keep us out of recession.It makes no sense to put us in debt, without creating a real stimulus package to put people to work, and grow the economy.  We have far too much debt, that this may create pandemonium throughout the world's economies.  In order for the United States on the growth mode is to provide real teeth in an economic stimulus ...

Hi Dave D, in the San Gabriel Valley & my fellow active rain associates,Wishing you all well for the holiday season and for a better 2008.  In responce to Dave D. of the San Gabriel Valley, that the Sky is falling and what to do?I can not afford to take my house off the market at this time, however I will tell you what I am going to do, however, before I do that, I want to point out a few things, why were here, and the sky is not falling, just correcting itself.For months I have been telling people, that the foreclosure problem is only part of the problem, and not as bad as some people think.  I feel very good about that data I have been assembling to convince some of our law makers that it's not as bad as most people think and that it's more media hype than anything.  This morning I he...

California is the 3rd highest cost state in the nation.  Survival depends greatly on raising the Conforming Loan Limits. The Federal Reserve should lower the Fed. Funds Rate, however, there is another part of the equation, that many people are not aware of outside of certain circles, Why are so many lenders in trouble?  The sub prime problem may have added a small minute portion to help fuel the fire, but in reality, the federal reserve deserves a good share of the credit of killing the confidence of the American Public.  The Federal Reserve is the direct link to the credit crunch, it has in it's power, and the will to increase the money supply and controls inflation, the Discount Rate and the Federal Funds Rate.  In 2004, the Federal Reserve started their quest to slow down the real es...

It's a very difficult to understand all of the pieces that keep the economic system in perfect harmony, with the price of crude oil is cruising the $100-per-barrel mark, the real estate market taking a beating in some areas, the financial market is riddled with bullets caused by the subprime turmoil, Another piece of the puzzle is having it's own share of problems, the dollar has been hammered lately, and continues to stumble lower to other currencies. The result has been a sharp decline in the stock market, causing it to give back almost all of 2007's gains.The Federal Reserve is concerned with Inflation, but in reality, it's deflation, that should be of concerned.Deflation is generally considered to be "falling prices". But there is much more to it than that. Often people confuse defl...

November 5, 2007   Dear Senator Feinstein,   I wrote this as a Blog for my fellow real estate associates, however, several of them have pointed out that I should be pointing this in the direction to members of both houses that  make the laws that affect the economy.    We have serious problems with the economy, and it cannot wait on the Federal Reserve movements in the fed funds rates to take affect, and won't do much good, unless we raise the Loan Limits for High Cost state, such as California and other states with similar problems in this credit crunch.    If we don't act fast in raising the loan limits, many people will start losing their homes faster than the economy can handle, including myself, and I did not refinance using sub prime lending, but my business depends on real estate...
