IndyMac Bank Shut Down Today by Regulators

My husband gave me some grief when I casually mentioned in a blog that since IndyMac was closing its new mortgage business doors, yet promising to honor loan locks already in progress, buyers might exercise caution and perhaps consider another alternative. He thought I might be reading too much into the story and could get sued for suggesting that buyers be careful. And here today we receive word that IndyMac has been taken over by the FDIC.

It's unclear how many of IndyMac's 130 employees in Rancho Cordova (Sacramento) have survived job cuts.

I've gone through a bank closure before. In the mid '80s, during that whole savings and loan fiasco, the feds closed Heritage Bank. All my accounts were frozen two weeks. Plus, I had to stand in line for three hours to get my money. Now I maintain accounts at more than one bank, just for that very reason.

At least IndyMac will reopen on Monday under the FDIC and will be known as IndyMac Federal Bank.
