Housing or Real Estate Bubble – Definition
• Real property which rapidly
increases to the point that
unsustainable debt levels are
reached relative to
expendable income as well
as other affordability
indicators within the economy
![Page 3: Causes and Consequences of the Foreclosure Crisis](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e2a8eb4c90511778b54ae/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Housing bubbles are created when fast
paced growth in the housing market goes
unchecked and spirals out of control
• Factors include lenient and predatory
lending, extremely low adjustable interest
rates and a blinding speculative fever
• Housing bubbles are generally
undetectable until after the burst

Reasons For The 2007 Burst and Recession
• Adjustable interest rates
reset to higher levels
• In 2007, 1.3 million
subprime borrowers
defaulted on mortgages and
were submitted through the
foreclosure process
![Page 5: Causes and Consequences of the Foreclosure Crisis](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052822/554e2a8eb4c90511778b54ae/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Domino Effect
• High adjustable interest rates
• Millions of foreclosed homes
• Decline in home demand and home value
• Housing industry jobs were lost
• Jobs connected to housing industry jobs
were lost, etc

The Domino Effect
• Prime mortgage holders defaulted
• Banks accumulated more foreclosures
than they could move, compounding
the mortgage crisis
• Shareholders and investors panicked
• Lending was basically brought to a
standstill, etc
