Looks like people in the Private Equity world are looking for new and exciting ways
to make more money off us.

GTIS expects to buy homes in bulk from banks, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Shapiro said. Properties will also be bought individually at courthouse auctions and through short sales, when lenders agree to sell for less than the balance of the mortgage, he said. GTIS will start buying in cities in Nevada, Arizona and California -- the states with the three highest foreclosure rates, according to RealtyTrac Inc. -- and Florida, which RealtyTrac ranked seventh in December, Shapiro said.


If your a first time buyer looks like your not going to get a home to live in on the cheap
as big busness going to get some nice deals from Fannie and Freddie first.
It looks like The public going to get cut out of the market in repossessed homes as the below
companies are going to be buying houses in bulk and renting them to the public.

Cerberus Capital Management LP, Deutsche Bank AG, Fortress Investment Group LLC (FIG), Starwood Capital Group LLC, TCW Group Inc. and UBS AG are among the financial firms that submitted responses to the federal request for information in September, according to a list obtained by Bloomberg through a Freedom of Information Act filing.

Now the worrying thing is if the bank have someone to sell homes to with ease then whats
to stop familys which have fallen behind with the mortgage quickly repossessed and kicked
out as there a financial firm ready to buy it and rent it out.
This will make two housing markets one for us and one for the the corporations who can buy
in bulk and on the cheap and us paying a premium for somewhere to live.

I can see this idea taking to long to get to the UK which should keep our house prices out
of reach for most of us.

Would rather rent an apartment, then you don't have to mow the lawn!

But seriously, if I lost my house, that's the route I would take. Will be interesting to see how many of these homes they can actually rent, the rental fees will be far too high as they try to recoup some losses, and as we know, it costs far more to rent a property and to maintain it than to sell it.

I see more bail outs in the future, because this is just a huge greed based mistake.
