How does the fed encourage banks to loan more money?

The Fed encourages banks to loan more money by:

  1. Reducing the Cash Reserve Ratio (Money that needs to be deposited with the fed by every bank) This way banks have more cash to lend and hence they loan it to customers
  2. Reducing Interest Rates - By reducing interest rates, loans become cheaper thereby prompting customers to take new loans which encourages banks to lend more loans in order to gain new business

What are pros and cons of reverse mortgage?

I know that it is a way for people who have built equity in their home when it is paid off to get money for living expenses etc. Like for elderly people with medical bills etc. If they have no other income and need the money. It is like taking out another mortgage again, because then the home isn't really paid off any more. When they decide to sell the home, money will be owed on it again.

What is subordinate second mortgage?

Deeds of Trust (mortgages) have a position on title based on seniority (1st, 2nd, 3rd). So if a new 1st mortgage wants to go into first position in a refinance transaction but there is already a 2nd mortgage, they must ask the 2nd mortgage to allow them to go ahead of them on title. The 2nd mortgage lender will review the proposed loan, and either approve or deny the request. This is most common when a borrower wants to retain the terms of the 2nd mortgage or they do not have enough equity to borrow a sufficient amount in the new loan to pay off the 2nd mortgage.

Can you be arrested for non payment of payday loan?

No. It is a common tactic amongst unscrupulous payday lenders to make threats that they cannot enforce, and in fact, it is illegal for them to make such threats. They are well known for threatening arrest and impersonating law enforcement during collections. Often, these payday lenders are not even located inside the US. Any lender should be licensed in your state. Chances are, internet payday lenders are not licensed at all, which makes their loans unenforceable. Even if a lender is legitimate, and you default, you cannot be charged with a crime for simply failing to pay. They may try to tell you that you have violated some wire-fraud or bad-check crime, but you have not. If your state allows payday lending, then they may possibly sue you in civil court for default, just like any other lender.

Why collateral is important?

Presuming that you're talking about lending terms and conditions, collateral is important for several reasons. First of all, it proves to the lender that you are of good faith and truly believe that you have the both the capacity AND the willingness to repay the debt. You may be able to "talk" a smooth game and convince the lender why you're a good credit risk, but collateral is putting your money where your mouth is, so to speak. It's a trade-off wherein the bank will front you the cash in exchange for pledging an asset of a certain value. It ensures that you, as the borrower, have skin in the game. It provides leverage to the bank if your financial situation gets rough to ensure that you don't walk away from your promise to pay.

Furthermore, conventional banks require collateral because they are fiduciaries of their depositor's money and they operate on very thin profit margins. Banking at its core is taking depositors' checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit, and lending that money back out to borrowers. To ensure the safety of those depositor's money, banks require collateral to minimize the risk of principal loss in the event that a loan goes bad. Also, core banking (paying interest to depositors and collecting loan interest from borrowers) has a very thin margin. Typically this is about a 4% margin. So, it is very important that banks are conservative with their lending standards (ie requiring adequate collateral) because losses from only a few bad loans can very quickly eat away their profit margin and start to threaten the safety of their depositor's funds.

These reasons are also why loans with collateral typically bear much better interest rates. Unsecured loans, or loans without collateral, typically have much higher interest rates. For example, credit cards are a form of unsecured loans. They can average anywhere from Prime +5% to Prime + 15% (8.25% to 18.25% as of present date), depending on your credit history and income.

If you deposit your money with a bank, you should expect and hope that they have adequate collateral guidelines in place for borrowing money. Otherwise, you could be one day waiting to get your money back from FDIC insurance proceeds after the bank fails.

Can you switch from a line of credit to a fixed loan?
