Well this is a very interesting documentary from the BBC - it's about "Mortgage Madness" and guess what it was made in 2003! As most people can appreciate, much of the first decade of the 2000's featured mortgage madness, indeed the US had a massive debt fuelled property bubble. So take a look at this old documentary which sounds an eerie bell tone of things to come. It is also very interesting and informative personally, as for most people a mortgage is the biggest debt obligation we take on, and our house is often our largest asset.
BBC TWO's The Money Programme has revealed a huge mortgage fraud with brokers from some of Britain's biggest estate agents and financial advice groups advising customers to break the law and lie about their incomes to get massively bigger mortgages.

It's an enlightening video and it made me realize how complex getting a mortgage is. Good thing I got a conveyancing in Brisbane to help me out on financial and legal matters like this.
