LOL fry me? gosh i shouldn't be wrong then huh? Well, i heard a few weeks ago Argent was put on the auction block and if no one bought them, the owner was going to file BK and close. Guess that rumor was true.No i'm not an employee @ Argent, i'm guessing the AE for our office informed our office manager today.And the AE didn't indicate whether their just changing into Ameriquest or not.

"...Additionally, HouseValues announced that it is exiting the mortgage lead generation business and is scaling back or eliminating initiatives that are not critical to its real estate agent customers. These reductions only affect the company's Kirkland headquarters and are expected to result in an overall reduction of the company's workforce by about 12 percent or 60 employees. HouseValues "
Absolutely nuts! I can't believe how many of these guys are shutting down this week. Maybe my semi-prediction of 18 years of real price declines will happen much faster. I think we're likely to experience a decline similiar to Houston (1979 - 1997).
