I had to admit that I do not have a clear idea what the subprime crisis is about. Can you explain it in simple terms

Prime means good, premier customers. So subprime simply means lousy customers (usually with bad credt). Banks and loan providers has lend out billions of $ at high interest rate (of course) to these borrowers who subsequently default - so the subrpime crisis is born.

Hope this clarifies

You can try looking up lone comparison sights to get a good deal but as for the house, I can only sagest just looking in the dark crevasses of the market and keep all eyes open. Sorry.
