So a friend of mine had this experience last week and the end result while interesting, she explained, did not compare to that of a scrubbing pedicure. Apparently however, worth the experience and worth the $45.00. Perhaps us gentlemen should treat our wives to this unique experience, or maybe wives treat husbands? Check this out:

I was reading the actual bill that describes our ‘$700B bail out’ and WOW is what comes to mind. This should be the cause for an amazing change from the mortgage lock-down we’ve been experiencing the past few months.
If I had a crystal ball and wanted to assure my buyers of when it was a good time to buy, I would suggest that once this bill passes (there is a clause that requires implementation start within 60 days) that later this year early next will be the best time to buy on almost all fronts. Interest rates should remain low, prices should remain low and because of this bill, prices should stabilize. Stabilizing of prices and the churn of new buyers could potential be the perfect storm for equity gains to start again….
Call me today if you’d like to discuss my interpretation or yours. I’d also call your bank and see what they can do for you- this would be EXACTLY what the point of all this is to drive.
Ive attached a snippet of the actual bill that highlights some interesting change potentially headed our way.
“SEC. 109. FORECLOSURE MITIGATION EFFORTS.
…MODIFICATIONS
In the case of a residential mortgage loan, modifications made under paragraph (1) may include—(A) reduction in interest rates (B) reduction of loan principal; and(C) other similar modifications.
