I dont know about the rest of you, but I will DIE without alt-a. This was always my biggest market share and focus, using all different doc types. It cannot be, how will I ever get a self employed jumbo loan done now.... ALT A was my most favorite type of client, next to full doc... please they can't go away...it states that 25 to 50 percent of loans were ALT-A loans... that's a HUGE chunk of loans..
WHAT WILL BE LEFT TO SELL???/ I guess FULL DOC conforming only.... Now the MARKET will tank, really tank I am sure most people have used alt a products on this site |

I understand that large depositary institutions like national banks do have their sources of fund and are not entirely dependent on the capital market. So, big national banks like Wamu, Wachovia, etc. will always have their Alt-A products or their portfolio products. So, even if the capital market (secondary market) runs dry of investors for Alta-A, these banks being flushed with CDs etc. will invent in-house portfolio loan products (like World's)to sell thru brokers. All banks need to lend to stay in business.
I will just sit tight and row the boat without worrying that the river will run dry as I will find a creek somehow to row on.

Please note that Wachovia will continue the portfolio (World Savings) products - the Alt-A product line that is being discontinued was a secondary market product suite.
We will continue to offer our Pick-a-Pay programs with flexible underwriting guidelines. |

World and Wachovia - ALT-A all day.
ALT- A Product Offering Suspended Effective immediately 8/2/07, Wachovia Mortgage will temporarily suspend accepting new loan registrations and/or locks on our Alt-A suite of products through the Wholesale channel. Alt-A loans currently locked will be honored provided they close by the expiration date. Equity Products Additionally, the maximum CLTV on all transactions involving a Wachovia equity product will be limited to 95% effective immediately 8/2/07.
Through the wholesale channel. So mortgage brokers can't originate Alt-A through Wachovia, but Wachovia retail can.
Rob, this doesn't sound good. |
