A common saying is that banks are in the business of lending money and do not want to own real estate. This is slightly misleading but is essentially true. When a bank takes a property back via foreclosure, it is a long and expensive process and often results in holding the property in their inventory as a non-performing asset. Banks have a limit to the amount of non-performing assets they want to

No More Mortgage Lender LoyaltyBy: Michael SteriosThere once was a time when loyalty was rewarded. However times have changed and loyalty to your mortgage lender no longer seems important. These days the average mortgage lender seems obsessed with attracting new business while few seem interested in providing their existing customers with incentives to remain with them.New customers are often drawn into taking out financial products from their mortgage lender because of various incentives that are offered to attract new business. The incentives on offer can include discounts on application fees, discounted interest rates, free valuations, cash backs, and even free gifts.However, it seems that once the relationship between the lender and the customers moves beyond the honeymoon stage there
Some people are desperate. They are facing foreclosure and do not care if they keep their home or not. All they want to do is to stop foreclosure. In these case, many people want to know if they can give their lender a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The answer is simply maybe or maybe not. First, your mortgage lender must be willing to accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Mortgage lenders are in the home loan business. They are not in the real estate business. Most people do not realize the costs that are involved when a lender gets a home through mortgage foreclosure or by a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The lender has to take care of the home, pay taxes and insurance, and then try to sell the property. While the home is on the market, the mortgage lender's money is tied up and not making

OK, perhaps my dream of a world without money lenders is a pipe dream, but if that isn't a possibility then how about we cut out the middle man and do the lending ourselves? OK, we can't completely cut out the middle man (unless we lend out money to random people down the pub), but we can use a middle man to lend or borrow money directly, rather than effectively lending our money to the bank for a pitiful return. Enter Zopa, who if nothing else, prove that all the good domain names have been taken.
