If banks are approving people for 7k mortgages that they cannot afford long term I expect another MBS crisis in the near future. Originators are supposed to do

If banks are approving people for 7k mortgages that they cannot afford long term I expect another MBS crisis in the near future. Originators are supposed to do due diligence by law to prevent this exact scenario… now people may be taking these on with the ability to afford payments but the desire to refi so they can spend in other areas which is an entirely different scenario than what you’re suggesting. One requires originator fraud the other is rosy financial planning. There’s the possibility that markets nationwide crater and millions of people go bankrupt to escape underwater mortgages which would do serious economic damage but that’s such an extreme scenario that it’s not worth seriously considering.
