1) New Finding May Ease Concerns That Borrowers Would Fall Behind on Loans

A new study shows that by CUTTING financially troubled borrowers’ monthly mortgage payments by MORE THAN 10% reduces the chances that they will fall behind on their mortgage payments after their loan is MODIFIED..

 

 

The report, released Friday by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision, comes as mortgage companies are preparing to modify loans under the Obama administration’s foreclosure-prevention plan, which provides financial incentives to encourage mortgage companies and investors to reduce borrowers’ mortgage-related payments to 31% of income.

 

 

“The administration plan is premised on the notion that if you lower the payment enough you can produce sustainable modifications,” said Comptroller of the Currency John C. Dugan. The report, he added, “provides evidence in support of that thought.”

 

It could help allay concerns that scores of borrowers whose loans are reworked will fall behind again on their mortgages, leading to higher losses for lenders and investors who hold these loans.

 

However it needs to be noted that while modifications that result in LOWER payments are increasing nearly half of all loan modifications result in the same or higher payments!

 

2) HALF of all loan workouts still result in the same or HIGHER payments!

 

Nearly HALF of all loan workouts still result in the same or HIGHER payments, for homeowners that contact their lender directly, the study found.

The re-default rate was less than 26% after nine months when monthly mortgage payments were cut by more than 10% after the modification. 

 

In comparison, more than 50% of homeowners re-default when the mortgage payment increased or remained the same after the modification!

 

Loan modifications that leave the payment unchanged or higher “in better times were more sustainable,” Mr. Dugan said. “In this climate, leaving mortgage payments unchanged or increasing them is resulting in too high of a risk of re-default.”

 

Modifications can result in higher monthly payments because, by the time loans are worked out, borrowers often are behind on their payments. Lenders frequently have been adding these past-due amounts, which can include principal, interest, taxes and insurance, driving monthly payments higher.

 

The government is pressuring lenders to step up their efforts to modify loans and reduce borrowers’ payments in response to pressure to reduce foreclosures.

 

Still, roughly one in four borrowers saw their payments increase after their loan was modified.

 

 

3) Myth: Lenders and servicers are doing everything they can to assist struggling homeowners.

 

 

According to President Obama,Right now, when families seek to modify a loan, they often find themselves navigating a maze of rules and regulations but rarely finding answers. Some lenders are willing to renegotiate; many aren’t. Your ability to restructure your loan depends on where you live, the company that owns or manages your loan, or even the agent who happens to answer the phone on the day you call.

 

Lenders do not have enough man power to help all the wounded homeowners suffering in their mortgage contracts. Tens of thousands of employees have been laid off and the lenders simply do not have the man power to assist all the homeowners that are contacting the lenders on their own competing for the lenders assistance.

 

 

The reality is that many of these homeowners that are facing foreclosure or that are no longer able to refinance may be victims of predatory lending and or mortgage fraud due to the banks loose lending guidelines over the past 5 years. Many homeowners that received a loan easily during the last 5 years are finding it nearly impossible to refinance today.

 

 

4) Homeowners may need legal help and a “true” advocate that will look at these loans and tell the truth.

 

Homeowner’s may want to have their loans examined by “independent” third parties. This independent organization should act as a non-biased “buffer” between the lender and the homeowner. This organization’s purpose should be to identify unlawful and predatory mortgages. They then should properly advise the borrower on what they can do to remedy their situation.

 

By working with an experienced team of attorneys, negotiators and loss mitigation experts homeowners can exponentially increase their chances for a successful loan modification and more importantly a payment and or principle balance reduction.

 

By going to the lender without assistance or representation it is like going to the IRS and allowing them to do your taxes for you!!!

If you and your family have considered a loan modification read the options available below:

 

 

5) Latest Options Available to Homeowners

 

a)    Loan Modification

b)    Forensic Loan Review

c)    FHA Short-Pay Refinance

d)    Who Qualifies

 

a) Loan Modification

 

Who qualifies:
Any homeowner can qualify for loss mitigation and loan modification as long as they present a lender or servicing company with a strong enough case that after a forensic cost benefit analysis it is determined that it makes more financial sense to modify the mortgage than to let it run its current course.

Misconception:

Loss mitigation and mortgage relief is reserved for people that cannot afford their home or their mortgage payment. This is untrue. Anyone can qualify for loss mitigation and mortgage relief. The factors that create a solid case for loan modification vary from lender to lender and are changing daily. So whether you have a fixed rate or an adjustable, whether you have a large amount of equity or you are upside down, whether you just received a raise or you lost your job, whether you have never missed a payment or you are considering foreclosure, whether you have large reserves or you are living off of credit, whether you are trying to modify your primary residence or your investment property, whether you own 1 home or 18, if it is determined that your specific situation and lender guidelines qualify you for loan modification then modifying your loan is not only possible it is guaranteed.

 

 

 

b) What is a Forensic Loan Review?

 

A Forensic Loan Review is an important tool when forcing lenders to negotiate with us for a loan modification, an FHA Short-Pay Refinance or a Short Sale (especially if we have not been late on our mortgage).

 

Many lenders are trying to avoid negotiating with homeowners that are either current on their mortgages or that are only slightly delinquent. Lenders are first working with people that are just about to foreclose (and will cause the greatest and most immediate cost to the lender).

 

It is becoming apparent that a Forensic Loan Review is a necessary tool in getting the lender to negotiate with us for a Loan Modification, an FHA Short Refinance or a Short Sale (all of which require calculated negotiations with the lender) whether a client is late on their mortgage or not.

 

Even a minor $30 miscalculation on the lender’s part could be an actionable offense, and the threat of a lawsuit is often enough to persuade the lender to deal with you in trying to find a way to help you work through your financial difficulties.

 

In a forensic loan review, a legal pathologist scours your loan documents looking for errors in, among other things, the truth in-lending (TIL) statement the lender provided shortly after you applied for your mortgage and the lender’s annual-percentage-rate (APR) calculation so you could compare loan costs.

If the TIL statement doesn’t match up with the HUD-1 closing-cost sheet you received at closing, if the APR is off by just a hair, you might have cause for legal action against the lender.

 

Typically, forensic loan audits are ordered by mortgage investors to determine what kind of legal liability confronts them in the pools of loans they already own or are considering buying. As a so-called “business-to-business service,” they are not generally available to individual borrowers.

 

That is until recently.

 

American Mortgage Relief Services is now offering comprehensive loan document reviews to homeowners as part of its service to help homeowners get the attention of their lenders and ultimately achieve powerful loan modification results.

 

If an error is found, it can force the lender to move you up to the front of the long, long line of borrowers who are looking for loan modification.

In some cases, if people were simply overcharged by $30 on the final HUD-1, or if the APR was higher by just .125 percent than was originally disclosed, this may give the lawyers leverage when negotiating with the lender to grant a beneficial loan modification.

 

This is an excellent option for homeowners that have Negative Amortization or Pick a Pay loans.

The TIL (truth in lending) statement for Neg Am loans are notorious for having mistakes.

Because Neg Am loans have 2 interest rates (the minimum payment rate and the fully amortized rate) the APR is very difficult to calculate and there is bound to be mistakes on the paperwork.
Intentional or not these mistakes give negotiators the leverage to force lenders to modify the loan.

 

 

 

c) What is a Short-Pay Refinance? (Principle Reduction)

 

Another powerful option for homeowners that have not been late on their mortgage but are interested in a loan modification or principle reduction is the new Short-Pay Refinance.

 

Many homeowners still have good income, and have not been late on their mortgage or credit cards but cannot refinance because the value of their home has dropped in recent months.

For these individuals there is a powerful option that went into effect in October called the Short-Pay Refinance.

 

Where as a “Short Sale” has become a well known solution for borrowers to avoid foreclosure by selling their home for less than what is owed, the “Short Payoff Refinance” (Short-Pay Refi) is becoming a popular tool for borrowers to retain their home.

 

This process is similar to a short sale but, instead of the property being sold, it is refinanced with a new FHA backed lender.  A Short-Pay Refi is unique in that it allows the borrowers to keep their home, lower their payments and eliminate the upside down equity in their homes while reducing their principal.

 

The transaction itself is a basically a three part process.

 

1.     First we need to establish the actual current conservative value of the home with an appraiser.

 

2.     Next, we document and underwrite the homeowner’s income for the new appraised value and issue an approval.

 

3.     Now, armed with that approval, we can enter into equity re-negotiations with the bank/loan servicer of the homeowner’s loan to negotiate a principle reduction on the current mortgage.

 

Once the bank/loan servicer accepts the offer presented, we can complete the new loan transaction and principle reduction.

 

In areas where values have dropped 20% or more, this could mean a substantial reduction in principle and loss to the lender.

It is still a win win for the homeowner and the lender (who gets to remove the bad loan from their books and move forward making new loans.

 

Who should get a Short-Pay Refi?

 

For those borrowers that still have decent credit, ficos, income and no mortgage lates but through either upcoming changes to their interest rate (making it no longer affordable) or to a decline in the value of their home (owing more than it’s worth), a Short-Pay Refi is the perfect solution.

Through the Short Refi, the borrower will qualify to refinance into a low fixed rate loan at the highest LTV’s (loan to value ratio) possible.

This allows the borrowers to put the brakes on before everything gets away from them and spins out of control.

 

Why would the bank/loan servicer agree to a Short-Pay Refi and not just foreclose on the property?

 

Simply put, foreclosing on a property requires large amounts of legal fees and then the home is typically sold at a substantial discount off of the fair market value.  The Short-Pay Refi allows the loan servicer to avoid the majority of the legal fees and let’s the new lender make its largest loan based on the fair market value.  When a Loan Modification can’t solve the problem as many loan servicers are not lenders, a Short-Pay Refi becomes a very powerful alternative.

 

To sum it up.

 

In essence, with a Short Payoff Refinance, the bank/loan servicers are happy because the loan is off their books and the homeowners are happy because they get a fresh start while still staying in their home with a lower mortgage payment and a lower mortgage balance.

 

Loan modifications, short refinances and short sales all require that we negotiate with the lender.

 

The lender will not grant a Short Refinance a Short Sale or a Loan Modification unless you negotiate and present your case without a shadow of a doubt. As with any negotiations the final outcome and results are determined by knowledge and experience of the negotiator. One important factor stands alone in determining the best results and that is Professional Negotiation Assistance.

 

Even for people that believe they may qualify for the Presidents new Homeowner Affordability Plan, having professional assistance may be more important than ever.

With the Presidents new Homeowner Affordability Plan homeowners may only get one shot at getting a loan modification. Once you submit your financials you may not get another chance, making it more important than ever to have a professional on your side (just as you would with a divorce, bankruptcy, arrest or injury).

 

 

There is a complex set of procedures, negotiations, and documentation that needs to be completed. In most states this process needs to be performed by an attorney or properly licensed counselor.

The key to borrower success is navigating the red tape and unfamiliar internal processes at banks and lenders and knowing when to be aggressive and when to take the offer and this is why working with professional loan modification experts is extremely important.

Even more frustrating and challenging is the fact that the lender that services our loans may not be the ultimate investor that owns the note. The loan modification guidelines for the company that services your loan may be dramatically different from the company that owns the note. In addition to this the loan modification guidelines are changing monthly and vary from bank to bank. Countrywide has changed their guidelines on late mortgage payments 3 times in as many months. Countrywide even told one of my clients that what may work with Countrywide last month won’t always work this month. This is exactly why homeowners need professional assistance to obtain the best results possible.

The window for homeowners to qualify is very small and it is getting smaller due to stricter guidelines and audits as a result of the President’s Plan. Many lenders require homeowners to have monthly positive income to qualify while others require negative cash flow and it is different depending on the lender.

 

So if a homeowner doesn’t know this information (because lenders do not put out guidelines for public use) it can be difficult for homeowners to know how to approach the lender with the proper numbers.

 

Homeowners could disqualify themselves immediately by saying the wrong thing and they may only get one shot.

 

The next step for anyone considering loan modification is first finding out if they qualify and second seeking advice and assistance in obtaining the best results for a successful loan modification.

 

 

d) Who Qualifies?

 

The next step for any homeowner interested to see if they qualify for one of these programs is to simply fill out the Free Loan Evaluation Form (attached in this email) and send it back to me for our network of attorneys to review.

 

This Free Loan Evaluation Form will allow us to determine if your financial profile fits within the eligibility requirements for a successful loan modification or Short Refinance and if you qualify under the Presidents new Homeowner Affordability Plan.

 

You will receive an approval within 24 – 48 hours after completing this Free Loan Evaluation Form.

 

  

If you have any questions at all about your current mortgage, loan modification, short refinances, short sales, credit scores or new home purchases, please give me a call or email me anytime.

 

 

I hope that this information was helpful and I am looking forward to speaking with you soon and helping you in any way I can.

Bank Foreclosures cause Opportunity and Concern for Americans

Quint Cobb & Associates

Record Foreclosures cause opportunity and concern for Americans

My name is Quint Cobb and I am the Managing of Director of Investment Loan Operations and I thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.

I wanted to take a moment and address the growing interest and concern surrounding Foreclosures.

 

Mortgage bankers report hits grim a benchmark in first quarter, showing a record number of homes in jeopardy.

 


 

More than one million homes are now in foreclosure, the highest rate ever recorded, according to a trade group which warned Thursday that number will continue to climb.

The Mortgage Bankers Association’s first quarter report showed that a record 2.5% of all loans being serviced by its members are now in foreclosure, which works out to about 1.1 million homes. That’s up from the 2% of loans, or about 938,000 homes, that were in foreclosure at the end of 2007.

The report also showed that 448,000 homes, or about 1% of loans being serviced, began the foreclosure process during the first quarter. That’s up from about 382,000 homes, or 0.83%, that entered foreclosure in the last three months of 2007.

The seasonally-adjusted rate of homeowners behind on their mortgage payments also hit a record high. Nearly 3 million home loans, or 6.4%, have missed at least one payment, while about 737,000 are at least three months past due, but not yet in foreclosure.

Grim numbers

 

“The figures aren’t surprising, but they’re pretty ugly nonetheless,” said Michael Larson, real estate analyst with Weiss Research. “We’re talking higher delinquencies and foreclosures pretty much across the board.”

And he doubts that there’s much reason to expect the foreclosure crisis to abate until next year at the earliest, adding that it could be a couple of years or more before foreclosure rates retreat to more normal historical averages.

“It’s the same story we’ve been seeing for a while now – we had too much reckless lending, and buyers who got over-extended,” he said. “We’ve had an unprecedented decline in home prices on a nationwide basis, which is public enemy number one for mortgage loans. And now you’ve got an overall economy that has slowed adding to this toxic stew.”

Good credit, bad credit

Much of the problem lies with subprime loans given to borrowers with weaker credit records, especially those loans that had adjustable rates. Nearly four out of ten subprime ARM loans are a month or more late, or in foreclosure. And subprime ARMs account for 39% of the loans that fell into foreclosure during the quarter.

Prime fixed-rate loans, which are considered very low risk, have also seen sharp increases in their delinquency and foreclosure rates, although they are performing far better than the riskier loans on the market.

There are 431,000 prime loans in foreclosure, a seasonally adjusted rate of 1.2% that is more than double the 0.5% rate a year ago.

The report showed about 1.2 million prime mortgages are now a month or more past due, a seasonably adjusted rate of 3.7% of those loans. That’s up from a rate of 2.6% a year ago.

According to Jay Brinkman, MBA’s vice president for research and economics, the prime loan segment was hurt by so-called Alt-A loans, which didn’t require income verification for buyers with good credit. Prime loans are also getting into trouble in places such as Florida and California, which have seen sharp home price declines.

“You still have people with prime fixed rate loans who lose their jobs, who get a divorce or have an illness come up, and can no longer afford a house,” Brinkman said. “In areas where there’s been home price appreciation, you can get out of that with the sale of a home or some other negotiation.”

Getting worse before it gets better

This marks the sixth straight quarter in which a record percentage of loans went into foreclosure.

The trend has led to a widespread decline in home prices, as well as huge losses for banks and other financial firms that issued or invested in the loans.

Nearly half of the homes in foreclosure are concentrated in six states. But those states are undergoing two very different types of housing meltdowns.

California, Florida, Arizona and Nevada have been hit by a hangover after a home building boom in the middle of the decade, which was fueled by rising home prices and investors snatching up real estate using risky mortgages. Those four states have nearly 400,000 homes in foreclosure, or a third of the nationwide total. Roughly 3.6% of all of the loans in these states are now in foreclosure.

“Clearly things in California and Florida are going to get worse before they get better,” said Brinkman.

The other two states that are ground zero for the crisis – Michigan and Ohio – have been hit by the more traditional economic woes stemming from rising job losses, particularly in the automotive sector.

Ohio has about 61,000 homes in foreclosure, while Michigan has about 54,000. The foreclosure rate in those two states is 3.9%.

There is a glimmer of good news. The rate of homes going into foreclosure in Ohio and Michigan was narrowly lower than it was in the fourth quarter, and 18 other states also saw a decline in that rate.

Brinkman said he hoped that means the crisis is at or near a bottom in much of the country, and that foreclosure prevention efforts have started to have an effect. But he added that a slight improvement in one quarter doesn’t necessarily mean the end is near.

Indeed, the rate of homes going into foreclosure continued to climb sharply higher in California and Florida, as has the rate of loans in those states that are 90 days or more past due but not yet in foreclosure. Brinkman said that in markets like these, where home prices have fallen so far from the market’s peak, finding solutions to keep a home out of foreclosure are more difficult.

He also added that, given the large impact California and Florida are having on the national foreclosure numbers, and the fact that historically foreclosures peak about three years into the loan’s life, he expects the number of foreclosures will continue to rise.

Stocks rallied near midday Thursday, with the Dow up over 180 points, as investors welcomed a surprise dip in weekly jobless claims, strong May sales from Wal-Mart Stores and a merger in the telecom sector.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) and the broader Standard & Poor’s 500 (SPX) index were both nearly 1.4% higher with under 3 hours left in the session. The Nasdaq composite (COMP) gained about 1.5%.

Stocks rose modestly at the open, but picked up the pace as the morning wore on, thanks to the mix of economic and company news. Meanwhile, gas and oil prices continued to move higher and the dollar retreated versus the euro after several days of gains.

The better-than-expected retail sales results from discounters such as Wal-Mart and Costco fueled Thursday’s rally, said Dave Rovelli, managing director of U.S. equity trading at Canaccord Adams. However, he noted that the improved sales were a result of the economic stimulus checks being mailed out, rather than a bigger indication of the health of the consumer.

On the upside, “a lot of people thought consumers were going to have to hoard their checks because they have to pay their mortgage and $4 a gallon for gas,” Rovelli said. “So I guess there is some reassurance that the consumer isn’t dead, at least at the lower end of the retail picture.”

Stocks were mixed Wednesday after reports that Moody’s could lower the credit ratings of bond insurers Ambac and MBIA trumped upbeat economic news and lower oil prices.

Verizon buys Alltel. The Dow component said it’s buying the rural wireless carrier from a private equity group for $28.1 billion in a deal that will create the largest U.S. wireless carrier. Verizon shares jumped over 6%.

Jobless claims drop. The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment fell 18,000 last week to 357,000, versus forecasts for an unchanged reading. The report was a positive amid hopes that the economy can avoid a recession. However, the four-week moving average, seen as a more reliable indicator, rose to a more than four-year high. Friday brings the big monthly non-farm payrolls report.

Housing market fallout continues. A report from the Mortgage Bankers’ Association showed that the number of homes in foreclosure surpassed 1 million in the first quarter, a record number.

Wal-Mart and other chain stores. The world’s largest retailer reported higher-than-expected May sales at stores open a year or more, saying it felt the benefit of the first wave of economic stimulus checks having been mailed out. Wal-Mart (WMT, Fortune 500) shares gained more than 3%.

Costco (COST, Fortune 500) also benefited from the economic stimulus checks, with the warehouse club posting a bigger-than-expected rise in May sales. (Full story).

Airline woes continue. Continental (CAL, Fortune 500) said it would cut 3,000 jobs from its workforce of 45,000 and ground 67 planes amid soaring fuel prices and the struggling economy. On Wednesday, United parent UAL Corp. (UAUA, Fortune 500) also announced it would cut jobs and ground planes.

Gas hits new record. The national average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gas rose to $3.989 from $3.983 the previous day, AAA reported. It was the 28th record in 29 days.

Oil prices rise. U.S. light crude oil for July delivery rose $2.80 cents to $124.38 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after having slid for the past few sessions.

Other markets: The dollar slipped versus the euro and the yen, after rising for the past few sessions.

Treasury prices fell, lifting the yield on the 10-year note to 4.02% from 3.97% late Wednesday. Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.

COMEX gold for August delivery fell $11.30 to $872.50 an ounce. 

Regulators give bleak forecast for banks

Agency heads suggest that banks have not set aside enough reserves for future loan losses and argue earnings will suffer.


Several top banking regulators warned lawmakers Thursday of more troubles ahead for the industry, including additional writedowns and the possibility that bigger banks could fail.

Speaking before the Senate Banking Committee, officials said most U.S. banking institutions are in relatively good health but remain challenged by continued woes in the housing market and the broader economy.

“We clearly are not out of the woods,” said John Dugan, who heads the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which oversees banks with a nationwide footprint.

One shortcoming, argued Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Donald Kohn, is that banks have not allocated enough money to keep up with the growth of their problem assets. As a result, they may have to boost their skyrocketing loan loss reserves even further.

Banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation set aside $37.1 billion in loan-loss provisions in the first quarter of this year – four times more than the $9.2 billion in the first quarter of 2007, the FDIC reported last week in its quarterly review of the industry.

Regulators added that they were bracing for an uptick in the number of bank failures, at least in the near term.

So far this year, just four banks have collapsed, including the most recent downfall of the Staples, Minn.-based First Integrity Bank, which shuttered its doors last Friday.

While most of the failures have so far been smaller community banks, FDIC Chairwoman Sheila Bair said her staff was preparing for the possibility of a large failure as a precaution.

“I don’t see that happening,” she said. “But we have to be prepared for all contingencies.”

Kohn and Dugan added that many institutions will require additional capital injections in the months ahead and may have to go so far as to cut their dividends.

In early March, many of these regulators met with lawmakers to discuss the state of the banking industry. But the dramatic collapse of Bear Stearns and the Federal Reserve’s controversial rescue of the Wall Street firm since then have raised new fears about the industry.

Now, rumors are swirling about the health of other large financial institutions, most notably Lehman Brothers (LEH, Fortune 500). During the hearing, Sen. Richard Shelby R-AL., asked about the likelihood of another investment bank needing to be bailed out.

Kohn declined to comment on the health of specific companies but said that Wall Street firms have learned a great deal from Bear Stearns and have reduced leverage and built up their liquidity.

“I think we have a stronger set of investment banks than we had a month-and-a-half ago,” said Kohn.
