Sub Prime Loans Hit the Neighborhood!

[So you thought that your property depended on your hard work and persistence in the face of obstacles. Think again. While you were doing all the right things, your neighbors were falling prey to the loan sharks and now your property is as much at risk as theirs -- your business, your job, the value of your home which you perhaps planned to sell when you retired as your nest egg?

The property game entangles all of us. The markets do not look too happy today around the globe. And they may hit the neighborhoods down the line, too. Ed Kent]
