Most mortgage money comes from bonds issued and as Bryan mentioned, are holding up the capital requirements.Mortgages in default are not shown at their face amount as assets.

Hey Bryan.

One story much easier than 2 or more storyIF we are talking center support,,,likely things to look for is rotten or termited shortened wood posts,,rusted out pipe supports,,sway back beams,,an IF its a crawl space probably NO footer support under whatever is blocking it up.Easy thing to do is go under house,pick open area,,hang a string a distance like inch,3/4,,,2 inches,whatever is easy and have block to measure by. across the joists in a couple different ways or directions and SEE how much its swaying,and where it looks like its cause.I am NOT saying an engineer isnt the RIGHT thing to do,,,just look and maybe YOU can suggest to engineer things that cut the fees to a minimum.I had a small house they set on conc blocks with nothing under them down center support,,,they got wet from who knows what,,like lots of rain and sunk in the mud within a few years of being built,then the whole house sway backed all the years it was old.

Or, there is a fundamental neglect, that can point out deeper problems. rotten wood, roof that is falling apart, rusted pipes, etc.
