ok just saw on the morning show or whatever about "Buy and Bails"
guy bought a 342k house, then bought his dream house 500k+, had 7000/month payments, couldn't sell house 1, couldn't rent it so what did he do?
Bought house #3 a townhouse cheap and walked on the other 2!
From what it said it didn't sound like he owed the banks the rest of the mortgages. Looked it up and you can get dinged for mortgage fraud - but only if you falsify loan applications or something to get the 2nd house. Also said that banks can sue the individuals but haven't yet.
It's really sounding like these people are getting absolved of their debts and the only penalty is bad credit. To me the news reports and media and the information that I find on it seem to be leading more and more people to do this because they aren't telling the penalties - if their are any???? this could get worse if more people starting doing this
