foreclosure: California Time-line for Foreclosure - 08/05/07 12:42 AM
This is the time-line for California non-judicial foreclosures. California uses Trust Deeds instead of mortgages. Technically, when the borrower (Trustor) misses the first payment, they are in default, but most Lenders (Beneficiaries) do not start foreclosure process until they have missed at least three. If this cannot be resolved between the trustor and beneficiary, then the beneficiary will tell the trustee to start the foreclosure process. Day 1= Record a Notice of Default Within 10 days the Notice of Default is mailed to trustors Within 1 month Notice of Default is mailed to parties After 3 months trustee can set a sale date 25

foreclosure: Should I take a listing w/NOD - 06/14/07 02:37 PM
You will really need to make sure you can do the best for your client if they are heading into foreclosure. You will have a fiduciary duty of utmost car, honesty, being on the up and up, speedy but though, and loyalty to do what is in your clients best interest. Remember that the stakes are very high for this client. If you do not sell their property, they will be out of time, unless they worked out other arrangements with the lender, and your hopes of receiving a commission for the work you have done, will be gone.

foreclosure: Subprime Loans - 06/14/07 10:38 AM
Over the last year or so, we have seen alot of people having loan problems. Alot of these problems are due to subprime loans. These loans are available to help borrowers who do not qualify for the conventional loans, due to credit scores, problem with delinquencies, bankruptcy, etc...Usually these loans have less requirements, lower downs, stated income, lower initial money payments and lower initial interest rate. However, these loans are very risky for the lender, so they will raise the interest rate higher then the conventional loans, charge points, and fees, and have prepayment penalties. ARM's are one of these loans. This

foreclosure: How does foreclosure work? - 05/27/07 01:06 AM
Foreclosure takes away ownership rights an owner has over a property and gives it to the lender in order to sell the property for the purpose of paying a debt.

foreclosure: Foreclosures- Profit and Prevention - 05/24/07 12:02 AM
Use foreclosures to get listing and business. The best way to get and keep clients is to TEACH them something useful- Educate them. Foreclosure is a stressful time for them. Cover points, even if it seems obvious. 1) Remind them that they own the house, not the bank. The equity in the home is theirs. If they are in foreclosure and have equity in the home, and then home is foreclosed on, not only do they hurt their credit, but the loose their equity/ money. 2) Once the process is started, they still have time to sell. They need to hire me right away.
