Many want to pretend that the Mortgage Meltdown is over. They claim that the worst is over, and all is peaches and cream. But the reality is that the economic system is still adjusting. Now IndyMac Bank is being seized by regulators in the second-largest takeover in American history after a run on the bank by depositors.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. will run a successor institution, IndyMac Federal Bank, starting next week, the Office of Thrift Supervision said in an e-mailed statement today. Customers will have access to funds this weekend via automated teller machines. Regulators intend to eventually sell the company.Now is NOT a time for panic. Panic will only make things worse. Things will improve, but it is likely we will see a few more failures before we're truly on the far side of the Recession.
The Pasadena, California-based lender specialized in so- called Alt-A mortgages, which didn't require borrowers to provide documentation on their incomes. IndyMac's home state, where Countrywide Financial Corp. was also located before it was bought last week, has been among the hardest hit by foreclosures.

Hi. I found your blog very interesting. Every time it comes to bank services I do not know which bank to choose. It is quite a problem at the present time you know. So many troubles and misunderstandings, that it is quite scaring. This time, on a really great site, www.pissedconsumer.com, I learned about IndyMac Bank. The bank has numerous reviews. Most of the feedbacks are positive. That is why this time I consider IndyMac Bank.
Hello. I find your blog very interesting. I think that everyone had something to do with banks. It is hard to choose a good and reliable one. After so many banks I had to deal with I should say that Indymac Bank is the best one. I learned about it from www.pissedconsumer.com. Although the feedbacks about the company were not very positive I still ran a risk and went there.
