FHA has shifted the entire burden of proof from the fiction of an intrinsic and immutable value in the real estate to the soundness of the transactions as a whole, separate and distinct from the em ergency protection afforded by the col- Ipstead of anticipating foreclosure, in other words, FHA insists that the transaction first justify it if apart from that unfortunate eventuality. rower's income and general credit standin g are an important element in the system of risk rating and appraisal, that takes into account not only the security of the debt, which, through monthly amortization constantly becomes relatively greater, but also the neighborhood, transportation facilities, schools, shopping centers, the industrial and economic future of the area—in short, every conceivable factor that may affect the continuing value of the property over a period of years—the only real value incidentally that any home property can have. While all risk of foreclosure has not, and can not, be removed even under the 'stem, the Feredal Housing Administration has gone far to ofar as those ction itself.
