Meltdown – The Global Financial Crisis? pt 1of 4

by Terrence MdKenna’s voice that this is from “DocZone,” a CBC.ca
The credit crunch
The global financial crisis (GFC) or global economic crisis is commonly believed to have begun in July 2007 with the credit crunch, when a loss of confidence by US investors in the value of sub-prime mortgages caused a liquidity crisis. This, in turn, resulted in the US Federal Bank injecting a large amount of capital into financial markets. By September 2008, the crisis had worsened as stock markets around the globe crashed and became highly volatile. Consumer confidence hit rock bottom as everyone tightened their belts in fear of what could lie ahead.

The sub-prime crisis and housing bubble
The housing market in the United States suffered greatly as many home owners who had taken out sub-prime loans found they were unable to meet their mortgage repayments. As the value of homes plummeted, the borrowers found themselves with negative equity. With a large number of borrowers defaulting on loans, banks were faced with a situation where the repossessed house and land was worth less on today’s market than the bank had loaned out originally. The banks had a liquidity crisis on their hands, and giving and obtaining loans became increasingly difficult as the fallout from the sub-prime lending bubble burst. This is commonly referred to as the credit crunch.

Although the housing collapse in the United States is commonly referred to as the trigger for the global financial crisis, some experts who have examined the events over the past few years, and indeed even politicians in the United States, may believe that the financial system was needed better regulation to discourage unscrupulous lending.

The global financial crisis enters a new phase
The collapse of Lehman Brothers on September 14, 2008 marked the beginning of a new phase in the global financial crisis. Governments around the world struggled to rescue giant financial institutions as the fallout from the housing and stock market collapse worsened. Many financial institutions continued to face serious liquidity issues. The Australian government announced the first of it’s stimulus packages aimed to jump-start the slowing economy.

The U.S. government proposed a $700 billion rescue plan, which subsequently failed to pass because some members of US Congress objected to the use of such a massive amount of taxpayer money being spent to bail out Wall Street investment bankers who some people may have believed could be one of the causes of the global financial crisis.

By September and October of 2008, people began investing heavily in gold, bonds and US dollar or Euro currency as it was seen as a safer alternative to the ailing housing or stock market.

In January of 2009 US President Obama proposed federal spending of around $1 trillion in an attempt to improve the state of the financial crisis. The Australian government also proposed another stimulus package, pledging to give cash handouts to tax payers, and spend more money on longer-term infrastructure projects.

Australia’s response to the global financial crisis – the first stimulus package
Australian prime minister Kevin Rudd and Treasurer Wayne Swan delivered their first budget in response to the global financial crisis, with the main objective being to fight inflation – a major problem in the local economy at the time.

Mortgage Broker – Construction Mortgage – Victoria BC

Renovation/Construction Mortgage Video Blog.

If you are looking at building a new home or doing major renovations and need mortgage financing you will be looking at obtaining a construction mortgage. Construction mortgages are also referred to as a draw mortgage, builders mortgage, or renovation mortgage.

If you are building a home from the ground up on your own (called a self-build) or through a builder and you do not have enough cash to pay for the whole project (who does really) you will need to obtain a specific type of mortgage that deals with all the different stages of building a home.

Unlike a regular residential mortgage on a complete home where the lender funds all of the required money on the date of possession a construction mortgage is advanced in stages. There typically are 4 stages where funds can be advanced. Those include when the foundation is complete, when the home is at lock up stage (framed, rough electrical and plumbing, and windows and doors are in), drywall complete and ready for paint and then the rest will be advanced when the home is complete. In some cases there also may be an advance to cover some of the cost to purchase the land that the home is being built on.

A construction mortgage may also be required when completing a major renovation on an existing home. In this situation a specific advance schedule will be determined between the lender and the consumer.

If you are looking at building a new home or purchasing a home that needs a substantial renovation contact Stephen Foster at www.stephenfoster.ca or give him a call at 250-889-7862 to discuss any of your real estate needs.
