...New House - Risks and Benefits XCEO-212 May 13, 2011 A New House - Risks and Benefits A few of the government bodies that influence national fiscal policies that potentially affect the housing market are: Federal Reserve System (FED), Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). “The Federal Reserve System of the U.S. is the central banking system of the U.S., comprised of the Federal Reserve Board, the 12 Federal Reserve Banks, the Federal Open Market Committee, and the national and state member bank. Its Primary purpose is to regulate the flow of money and credit in the country” (InvesgtorWords.com, 2011). The federal secure interest affects variable interest rates of mortgages by using the interest only loans, which you just pay the interest and no principal, so when the housing price falls, refinancing is impossible. The reason refinancing is impossible, is because there is no equity or profit made and the house value diminishes and there is no way to refinance when the house is worth less than the mortgage amount. When the value of your home goes up, then you can refinance. The HUD Act affects mortgages for “single-family and multifamily dwellings and extending loans for home improvements and for the purchase of mobile homes; channeling funds from investors into the mortgage industry through the Government National Mortgage Association; and making loans for the construction of rehabilitation of housing projects for older...

...Running head: PURCHASING A HOUSE RISK PAPER Purchasing a House Risk Paper Keller Graduate School of Management Project Risk Management PROJ 595 Dr. Susan Orr August 04, 2013 Purchasing a House Risk Paper INTRODUCTION The many advantages to owning a home have been well publicized. However, the above satistics make it clear that owning a home is not without risk. To form a complete picture, you, the prospective buyer, need to consider the potential risks and disadvantages of home ownership as well. Understanding these disadvantages beforehand will give you a better chance of minimizing their impact and avoiding the fate suffered by these homeowners. RISKS IDENTIFICATION There are many risks in buying a new house such as: • The opportunity cost of investing in an alternative investment is very high because the entire cash and future income stream is tied up into one asset a home, which may or may not appreciate. • The house is an undiversified investment, so if the market tanks as it has, game over. • Knowing that we do not own our home, the bank does. • A lot of cost connected to home ownership, such as repairs and insurance and fees and potential hazards I have not considered. • If I lose my job, game over, this will put a lot of stress on me. • There is a chance that your new home will lose value. Luckily, in general, the longer you own your home, the less likely a loss becomes. Loss of value is typically a short-term problem, possibly due to the local...

...Risk Paper 1 Pm595 Risk Paper: Buying a new house Project Risk Management Professor: James Reckon By Magued Farag May 24, 2014 TITLE: BUYING A NEW HOUSE TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION RISKS IDENTIFICATION RISKS RANKING MATRIX RISKS MONITORING CONCLUSION REFERENCES * INTRODUCTION Whenever considering a major purchase in life one must carefully consider the risks associated with making these purchase decisions. These decisions should be treated as projects in such a way that proper planning, analysis, risk assessment and contingency should all be aspects of the purchase process whether formal or informal. In this paper, I will discuss about a project that many people are familiar to: buying a new house. Few years ago, I moved to a new area and was trying to decide whether or not to purchase a new house, and if so, where should I buy it. I also considered if I should buy a preexisting new house or hire a builder for a new house. Every option had its own set of potential risks. If I continued to rent, was this really just throwing away money. If I purchased a house, could I afford it and was I buying the best house for me and my family? I approached it like any other project, with interviewing people, note collecting, collating, and interpreting the data. After reviewing my expenses and income and examining the tax advantages, I decided to buy a house but knowing that several risks may accompany my decisions, these risks rank from high probability...

...Microfinance Project to the Lives of Beneficiaries Microfinance is a powerful economic development tool. Its unique approach to poverty alleviation targets the working poor, a segment of society that is typically underserved by conventional economic development strategy. Microfinance programs deliver basic financial services to the vast numbers of business owners with little or no access to the credit, deposit, and savings mechanisms offered through commercial banks.1 ____________ 1Understanding Microfinance and its Contribution to Economic Growth, The Palestinian Network. I. Project Background Many of the people in the community have difficulty meeting their needs. This situation is aggravated by the fact that, for most of them, only one spouse may have a regular job, while the other spouse stays home because s/he cannot find work or has to care for their children. The desires of those who stay at home to help their working spouses earn is seen by the former’s engaging in vending viand, snacks or small grocery store “sari-sari store”, etc. They have acquired basic skills needed in running a micro-business, but their capital either gets used up for the provision of their particular venture. Most often, they solve this problem by resorting to loan sharks. Virlanie Foundation, Inc., in its effort to help alleviate the street children’s problem by approaching it from a preventive point of view, started the loan assistance project in 1993...

...* Ways To Overcome The High House-Loans Rejection Rate We all know it's tougher to get a home loan these days compared with just a few years ago. Banks tightened their credit standards dramatically during the credit crunch, and lenders now accept only 55% of all mortgage applications. according to the latest annual statistics from the Mortgage Bankers Association: Overall lending by U.S. banks plunged by 7.4% in 2009, the sharpest decline since 1942, based on FDIC data. And so far in 2010, banks have yet to ease lending standards. Here are ten reasons people get turned down for a housing loan and some advice on how to overcome these obstacles. 1. BAD OR LOW CREDIT SCORE * You cannot build a house if the foundations are flimsy, When it comes to loan approvals, banks use a similar analogy. If you have a low credit score, you will be denied a home loan rejection even if you fulfill all other conditions. Credit score is considered to be the most important factor by the banks while disbursing a loan." * Credit score reflects a consumer's behavior towards the financial transactions. In some ways, it is a mirror to his financial habits and underwriters base their decision and develop risk-based pricing based on the credit score," says Anil Sachidanand, MD & CEO, Aspire Home Finance Corporation. So, if a person has defaulted or delayed the payment on any kind of loan or credit cards, it will have a negative impact on the credit score. Other factors like being guarantor...

...Anderson Simulation Review In this paper I will talk about a simulation review I completed on the financial hardships of Elijah Hearth Center (ECH), a one hundred and forty bed cardiac care inpatient hospital as well as outpatient and rehabilitation services located in New York City. Even though the center’s revenue is increasing as well as ratio of new patients they are not seeing the profits increase at the same level. Because of their low profit margin the center is looking to save $750,000 in the first quarter for a few projects that they feel will help raise their profit margin; They have indicated three areas to work on, phase I is to bridge a working capital shortage to have more operating cash on hand, phase II is to evaluate funding options for the acquisition of additional medical equipment to better serve their patients and phase III is to evaluate several options for additional funding for the expansion of building a new center to house an extra one hundred rooms to efficiently accommodate new patients. Phase I: Capital Shortage The two cost cutting option I choose were to reduce agency staff because I saw that the salary they were paid was double the salary of the hospital staff and patient care would be very slightly affected by this reduction which was another reason I felt that this cost cutting option was a good choice for the center, patient satisfaction is very important for the success of a hospital, by reducing agency staff the center would save $2...

...Leah Dolce ECO 103 Mortgage Project While doing this project, I kept finding myself to be very indecisive as to what I wanted in a home and what things would be important to me if I were to purchase one. This project helped me understand the basics of buying a home such as: where I would want my kids to go to school, how many bedrooms, how many bathrooms, property, neighborhood reputation, and much more. I had very little knowledge about most of the surrounding area so now I know what kind of research I would have to do to make sure I know exatcly what I want when purchasing a home. I did know I wanted it to be at least 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and have an updated kitchen. I was able to find those things in the home I selected but what I didn't realize was what the cost would be. There is a huge financial difference between a 15 year fix and a 30 year fix mortgage. For the home I selected it was a $522.76 difference in the monthly payment and a $91,271.79 difference in the amount of interest I would be paying for the life of the loan. If I was abel to afford such a hefty, monthly payment I would choose the 15 year mortgage because in the long run it would be cheaper. The lesson learned here, though, is find a more affordable house and make updates as you go along. All -in-all I had fun doing this project and it helped me understand the process into buying a home and gave me great internet resources to do...
