More Homeowners Missing Mortgage Payments [FOX 11-08-2011]
The U. S. subprime mortgage crisis was one of the first indicators of the late-2000s financial crisis, characterized by a rise in subprime mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures, and the resulting decline of securities backed by said mortgages. The ratio of lower-quality subprime mortgages originated rose from the historical 8% or lower range to approximately 20% from 2004-2006, with much higher ratios in some parts of the U. S. A high percentage of these subprime mortgages, over 90% in 2006 for example, were adjustable-rate mortgages. These two changes were part of a broader trend of lowered lending standards and higher-risk mortgage products. Further, U. S. households had become increasingly indebted, with the ratio of debt to disposable personal income rising from 77% in 1990 to 127% at the end of 2007, much of this increase mortgage-related.

Real Estate Marketing – What is a Short Sale and How to Negotiate to Stop Foreclosure? – Part 7
http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com – Real Estate Marketing – Prices are back to 2003 levels: A Short Sale is significantly cheaper for a bank than a foreclosure –
Produced by Dan Havey of Real Estate Marketing This Week
Part 7 – Were in the studio today with Kalyn Roberts and Jeri League of the Dreamvesting Group, these two young ladies are experts in the short sale area, they are NOT going to tell you what you want to hear, they are going to tell you what you need to hear. There is a big difference between what you want and what you need in the case of getting out of a situation. We talked during the break about the different types of people; who qualifies, who doesn’t qualify, who this is good for, and who its not good for. I want you to talk about people who are upside down and how you’re here to help.
What we want to get across today if you just need to call someone if you’re upside down in your mortgage, if you have a listing next door and its a bank owned or short sale, there is a good chance you’re probably upside down in you mortgage if you bought anytime in the last, in the last 5 years were almost back to 2003 pricing now.
Just to jump in real quick, Jeri and Kalyn its not just the people who purchased, its the people who used their homes as ATMs which is a crude way for me to say it but lets be honest. You watch the television, and I am not going to name any names, but a company that rhymes with lie-tech though, they have a commercial where they are showing pictures of using your home to buy a big boat and everybody got sucked into that and now here were.
Yes, if you used your second mortgage to build that big beautiful pool in your backyard, maybe you need to call us. Yes, its unfortunate, we always tell everyone like you just said, everybody got sucked into it, it doesn’t mean you’re stupid, it doesn’t mean you necessarily made a really bad decision. Most people got caught up in the real estate market and good marketing ploys like that, and the bottom line is as we said earlier you dont have to be late on your mortgage payment, you don’t have to be facing a foreclosure, if you’re simply upside down because you refinanced your home or purchased too recently and the house next door is selling for $100,000 less than yours and you just need to get out of a bad financial situation, you’re a candidate for a short sale or even a loan modification.
One of the things about loan modifications that I hear all the time is, and I research other loan modification companies, and what I hear is they are telling people things that just aren’t real. For instance if your owe $400,000 and your house is worth $300,000 and you want your lender to forgive $100,000 on a loan modification, chances are that isnt going to happen, whereas with a short sale, when youre exiting the property because it just isnt going to work, they would in most cases consider doing that.
Absolutely if that is the market value of your home they are going to consider the bottom line, the banks dont want these properties back, it costs them so much money to go through a foreclosure process and as our prices are falling, monthly, weekly, daily, the likelihood of the value of the property being extremely lower by the time they get the property back is 100%.
In addition to the $60,000 in foreclosure cost, paying real estate commissions and a few other fees is significantly better, because the loss is going to be significantly less with a short sale. Heres a question and I hope that I am not putting either of you on the spot, but suppose the guy owes $400,000 on his house, lets just say its worth $300,000 and you get the listing and this guy is out at a cocktail party and his cousin shows up and says, Ill buy the house from you. Ill buy the house from you, we will make the bank pay the difference and Ill just let you stay in the house. Is that a realistic situation, is someone going to find out about it? Is it good to do that or not?
In real estate, real estate purchases and transactions have to be non-arms length. Now arms length is described as your parents and your children, other than that we pretty much stay out of it because theoretically, yes that could happen, however the banks want to see that the homeowner is not benefiting, so the homeowner would have to become a tenant and be paying rent to new owner at that point. So there are many legitimate situations where you could meet someone who would buy the home and allow you to stay in the home… http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com/a-short-sale-is-significantly-cheaper-than-a-foreclosure/

MortgageGate Awareness Beginning to Grow 09-16-11 (5)

REMEDIES IN REAL ESTATE – Randy Kelton

Evidence of mortgage fraud time travel.
http://dailybail.com/home/taxpayer-funded-mortgage-fraud-101.html
Here’s a hint – MERS assigns to Wells Fargo.
Same day, same person, same notary assigns from Wells Fargo to Fannie Mae.
From one of the comments at the OP on Foreclosure Hamlet:
“So Janice works for Franklin American Mort Corp. in Flint, MI and Assigns the mortgage as an Asst. Sec’y for MERS to Wells Fargo in Iowa, and she has the assignment notarized in Dakota County, Minnesota.”
“Then, on the same day, she also works for Wells Fargo in Iowa, and assigns the mortgage to Fannie Mae in Philadelphia, PA and has it notarized again in Dakota County, Minnesota?”
“First, Lets just assume that it’s legal to have an assignment of mortgage from a company in Flint, MI to be notarized in Minnesota for a company located in Iowa. And then let’s also assume that a company in Iowa can have an Assignment of mortgage notarized in Minnesota for a company in PA.”
“Is this sort of behavior legal? Or could it be FRAUD? Hmmmmmm, Flint, MI to Dakota, MN, a mere 581.8 miles apart. That’s nearly a 12 hour drive w/o any highway mishaps, oh, and you better have the ability to walk on water, otherwise, its a 688 mile drive under Lake Michigan and over 12 hours. Typically, banking hours are between 8am & 5pm. That’s a total of 9 hours. Maybe she should have saved gas and just driven to Iowa. It’s only 10 hours away.”
Pretty neat trick huh?
There is something very sinister about this amazing time travel. It is my belief that these individual mortgage obligations live in more than one savvy MBS investor’s “book.” Each manifestation of the obligation is insured against default for the full outcome based appraisal “value.”
Each investor is made whole via insurance and thanks to AIG, who of course was caught by surprise, has no choice but to dump the whole mess on the taxpayer. Meanwhile, the “servicer” purchases (for pennies on the fiat) the right to pursue the extinguished debt and seek as many deficiency judgments as possible.
Not to mention the fact that clear chain of title on millions of homes (in default or not) are destroyed. Further, if the obligations fail to make their way to the trusts within the REMIC window, throw massive tax evasion into the mix.

Real Estate Marketing – Mortgage Meltdown, Fraud and Scams – Part 7
http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com – Real Estate Marketing – Foreclosure Rescue Scams and How to Protect Yourself – With Michael J Barnes, Brett Fallon and Dan Havey of Real Estate Marketing This Week
Part 7 – The Foreclosure Sharks, you have written this book or I think it’s called a white paper. Free report whatever you want to call it its packed full of really good and interesting information. It’s called The Foreclosure Sharks – A look at the rampant theft of Americans homes through foreclosure rescue scams.
And folks I have to tell you I think we’re going to spend the next week, the majority of the show talking about what the heck is going on out there. And what you need to do to protect yourself in case you should happen to be against this problem. You really need to know what your options are. This free report is available online at http://mortgageanswerman.com. You have got to get this. The information is really good, and one of the taglines that you have here Dan is, Theres blood in the water and the sharks can smell it.
Right. What made me actually write this was a number of years ago I had been working with people in foreclosure for years, and it was just a way to let them know what was going to be going on once the foreclosure was filed against them. Now in many cases, these people were already experiencing what was going on.
And again I’ve recently had a friend or two go through foreclosure and I had them collect all of the paperwork that they got from all of the foreclosure guys out there trying to help them sell their house or do whatever it was, and I was surprised at how thin the stack was. This one gal in particular, lives in Scottsdale in a very nice house and she didnt have more than maybe 6 letters. In the past, a couple of years ago, especially at the peak of the market, when somebody was in a foreclosure situation they would have seriously a stack 6 inches thick.
People would be knocking on their door 24 hours a day, calling them, dropping off stuff. There were cars driving by all the time and it really got to be a nuisance. And frankly I think it hurt the home owner and their standing in a neighborhood, with all of that traffic and of course everybody knew that they were having problems. So that is why the report was originally written and why I wanted to talk about it today because of all the foreclosures going on in the market right now.
Now let me ask you a question, you are saying that two years ago if I were in a foreclosure my mail box would be chock-full of marketing products. Youre telling me now that there is virtually none?
Well I think that part of it is that back then there was financing available to be able to come in and refinance the people. I certainly myself did dozens of loans, at least, to bail people out of bankruptcies and foreclosures, and also people had equity back then. Property values were continuing to go up. I forget how many scams I pointed out here in the book, I think there are 18 or something in here, and most of them are essentially people attempting to get your house away from you, either refinance it, sell it for you, take a lease option, there are all kinds of different scams involved, but I think the reason we see so much less of it today is because there is so much less equity. So if you are upside down by $300,000 in your house, i dont care how good of a scammer you are, you are not going to make a lot of money off that.
But there are a couple of scams going on right now that I want to talk about because there are a couple of things that happened just recently that harkened me back to when I first got started in real estate here in Arizona in the late 1980s. I was selling repos for Fannie Mae, Countrywide, and the Resolution Trust Corporation, which was in charge of selling off all of the real estate owned for the 1,800 or so Savings and Loans that failed in the late 1980s early 1990s. There were so many scams going on then, I mean we had just tons of vacant houses we were selling, and one of the big scams that I thought was actually being perpetrated on a friend of mine the other day is a little something known as rent skimming… http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com/foreclosure-rescue-scams-and-how-to-protect-yourself/

Mortgage Modification – Fannie Mae Streamline Loan Modification – RealEstateMarketingThisWeek.com
http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com – New Fannie Mae Streamline Loan Modifications may do more harm than good
Part 5 –
We do realize that there are situations that people are in that they want to be out of and we want to move past. We have back in the studio, the author of Real Estates Future also the author of The Foreclosure Sharks white paper, a fantastic manual that he has put together that you can get for free. Dan Havey thank you very much for coming back. You can get a copy of the white paper The Foreclosure Sharks at http://mortgageanswerman.com.
So Dan I know that you have brought the just recently released new Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac guidelines, with their streamlined modification process. This is the kind of thing where the consumer can go and do-it themselves, right?
Yes, except that we would certainly advise against that. These are the guidelines that Fannie Mae came out with; they are effective as of a couple weeks ago now. But with Christmas and the holidays I dont think a whole lot of people have figured out what this is all about yet. So as we said in the last segment the guidelines that they have come out with here, and what I have is a print out but I dont know that this is the whole thing because I have heard some commentary on this that actually says that it is much worse then I am about to relay to everyone on the air.
I am just going to pick out a couple points about this and then I will let Michael laugh about them because some of these things are just crazy in the fact that it doesnt really help the home owner and I also dont think it is going to move us past the conditions we have to get people some really good loan modifications, the kind of loan modifications that we are talking about where you actually employ an attorney to help you with your loan modification.
The reality of it is we need to get through this mess we dont need to stave it off, push it out further and in my opinion that is what this does. That is exactly what is going on here, there was an article I was reading by Fitch, which is one of the major bond rating firms and that is exactly what they said. They said that the alt-A arms are all coming back to roost now, I think the default rate was over 14% on all alt-A arms, being at least 90 days past due. And the comment in the article was something like, well we havent really seen a lot of losses from it yet and then it said in a caveat at the end, and we think its because they are not really foreclosing on any of these guys yet, so that is why they havent seen any losses. Well if you keep pushing it off into the future eventually you are going to have to see some of these losses.
We have the same thing here with Fannie Mae, which I think it is just another band-aid; it is not going to really solve the problem. First what they have here, and this one is pretty benign, that once they give you the new mortgage payment you have a three month trial period. If you make the payments during that trial period they let you keep the modification. So that one is not so bad.
The next one says that the qualified borrower cant be in litigation, bankruptcy, or have an existing work out plan, and you have to be at least 3 months behind or in foreclosure in order to be eligible for this streamline.
Ok I get to comment right? SO basically what Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac just told everyone, according to this that I am reading right here, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac just told you to be 90 days late on your mortgage. That is exactly right, they said that the only way they were going to be able to help you was to be 90 days late on your mortgage.
So I have been, over the past several months, heck Dan you helped us put together the package, you are the cofounder of the modification hotline and I am on the radio every week when we do a little blip about load mods from time to time, saying dont trust anybody who tells you to be late on your mortgage. First of all no loan professional, no mortgage professional, no loan modification specialist will tell you to be late on your mortgage, however, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac just said you need to be at least 90 days late on your mortgage if you want them to help you.

What is a Short Sale and How to Negotiate to Stop Foreclosure – RealEstateMarketingThisWeek.com
http://RealEstateMarketingThisWeek.com – What is a Short Sale? – Short Sale experts discuss How to Negotiate to Stop a Foreclosure… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIQ4-b3KnbU
- Short Sale and Loan Modifications; great alternative to Foreclosure –
Kalyn Roberts and Jeri league, welcome to the program. Jeri and Kalyn are short sale experts and have graciously decided to come to the program to discuss some of the short sale important things that people do need to know, and were going to get to all of this short sale information, but a couple of things important to mortgage interest rates. Today is a fantastic day in the mortgage rate world. Leslie and Staci at Velocity Financial were kind enough to put together a scenario for us so listen to this folks.
This is not the teaser, this is not the loss leader, this is the real deal as of today, a $417,000 loan amount, the interest rate is 4.875%, thats 4.875% that is below 5% obviously, the APR is 4.948% and that is for a no cash out loan, and that is a special rate and we have a certain allotment of loans that were allowed to do at that special rate. If youre interested in talking to a member of my staff or myself or anyone else about that program you would call. There are people there standing by to take your phone call.
Were a local licensed firm and one of the only 15% of the mortgage companies in the state of Arizona that is licensed to do FHA loans as well. Any mortgage related needs that you have were here to help but for the next hour were going to be talking about Short Sales.
Now over the last several months we have been talking about loan modifications on the show a lot, Velocity Financial was one of the first companies to work with a national network of attorneys, a 16 year old firm that were working with. They have done thousands of these loan modifications, and the loan modification industry in Arizona is for the most part unregulated, but you want to make sure youre working with a licensed firm, and you want to make sure youre utilizing an attorney.
You dont want to be giving money to anybody that says they can get you a loan modification, the only money you give is to an attorney, dont be giving money to people who come by and say they can help you out. Youre going to have to be very careful on how you handle that, but interestingly enough the loan modification is for the mortgage side, essentially the loan modification is to the loan officer what a short sale would be to a realtor.
Now the short sale part of real estate is not something you want to trust to somebody starting out doing short sales, unless they are being supervised by a pro, you dont want to mess around with it. This is not a time to be trying it out, this is not a time for people to be using you as their guinea pig, not a good idea at all.
That is why we brought Jeri and Kalyn in and were going to talk about some of the specifics. You definitely want to make sure that if you need to do a loan modification, if youre facing foreclosure or you want to do a short sale, whatever scenario is the better decision for you and your family, you have got to work with a professional, Jeri and Kalyn have extensive experience, they have an unbelievably great success rate.
It doesnt have to take six months to get this done they can execute this for you and they are the pros so were going to go through some questions over the next hour, there is just one more thing I want to talk about and that is if a loan modification is something you think you need call the office and we have put together a video for you that you can watch, its very short, it explains the process and we will then get together with you and answer any questions that you have… http://realestatemarketingthisweek.com
