subprime mortgage lenders

Can anyone tell me why lenders started making more and more subprime loans to home buyers?

, Ago 15 years in the mortgage business, there was no such thing as a high risk loan. 8 years ago, was a rarity …. but something has happened in recent years. Sure you can blame the lenders, and sure you could blame the borrowers, but what are the major market forces and events that cause the Lenders have to leave their guidelines to get borrowers or borrowers not being able to respond to the major guidelines of yesteryear?

What happened was basically on the assumption that the trend was continuing. In the financial world, this is a form of mental disorder. The trends are why someone may be a day trader and earn money, for a while. His timing is why someone who does not get out of that time lost their shirts. The subprime loans were designed to "churn" of loans. You had loans that were fixed for usually two years, then become variable. The overall objective was for the borrower to refinance in two years, once again the generation of all new bank loan fees. The trend of real estate to appreciate rapidly had to follow maintaining attractive for the borrower. Borrow 100 with 5k in costs to repay a loan of 95, wait two years, borrowing 105k with 5k in costs to repay a 100, wait two years, borrowing 110k with 5k in costs to repay a loan of 105 …… but the trend did not cooperate by giving a value of 110k house, and the balloon burst. People still had the same house they did, but now a loan for more than they originally paid for it, and not can get funding and can not sell for what they owe. trends are temporary. People who think otherwise will lose money over time. Now, how to know when a trend is coming to an end? There is a story about the accident from 29 about a runner who was a shoe shine, shoe shine and gave him a hot tip on a stock. He realized that when shoeshine boys were giving stock tips, the market was about to crash and left. During the day was a merchant, there are stories of drivers bus and porters earn huge money in day trading, just before it went south. How many times have you seen people offer to help people get loans in your answers here at Yahoo, offers a completely alien to the question being asked? is a trend. Now it is not.
