Short Sale Rush

摘要

The current crises in the U.S. housing and mortgage markets have prompted dozens of books by authors with wide-ranging expertise and very different perspectives on industry problems and solutions. In order to improve my own understanding of the problems and proposed fixes, I recently read several books on the subject, including Short Sale Rush, the subject of this review. From my small sampling of the current literature, I came away with greater appreciation for the complexity of the situation, interrelationships between housing markets, the impact of Wall Street and mortgage securitization, and respect for the authors' very different personal perspectives on the problem and proposed mitigation.
