The Florida Attorney General, Bill McCollum, who is also running for Florida governor, is now getting involved in the abysmal mortgage crisis in Florida.I can recount story after story of fearful homeowners who have told me their lenders would do nothing to help them save their homes.These borrowers cannot crack through the mortgage system for any intelligent discussion and solution to their personal mortgage crisis .
Apparently, Attorney General McCollum has heard the same cries.Yesterday he issued a press release and copy of letters he sent to the major mortgage servicers.
McCollum cites poor treatment and no assistance to Florida homeowners unable to pay their mortgage and facing foreclosure.He has written letters to executives of Bank of America, JP Morgan/Chase, Wells Fargo and Wachovia.Specifically, McCollum states Florida borrowers are:
·Placed on hold for excessive periods when calling for help
·Transferred from department to department and person to person
·Forced to submit identical paperwork again and again
·Forced to speak to unknowledgeable representatives
·Never informed about the status of their loan modifications
·Provided no avenue for complaints
Bill McCollum says these practices are “irresponsible and unacceptable”.
All I can say, is, “Hurrah, Bill!”Thank you for taking a stand with these monstrous corporations.As a Destin short sale specialist, I deal with them every day.There is no such thing as customer service and courtesy anymore.As you say, the tone is quite different from when these lenders originated these very loans.
I hope your letter brings pause, attention and ACTION from these corporations who are forcing borrowers into foreclosure.

Hi folks. What a week we have had!! The revamping of www.ShortSaleSuperStars.comseems to have gone over very well. Thank you for all of your positive comments on the new look.
Would you believe that in the last week we have had 785 absolute unique visitors? And we had 11,569 page views!!!
40 new members this week brings our total to 533. What else can I say? The growth of the network this week has been phenomenal. Thank you!
Due to this rapid growth we asked Jeff Payne to help us moderate the site. He gladly accepted his first order of duty which was to delete duplicate profiles and make sure all members are using First name/last name in your profiles. The first is for obvious reasons the second is to help with the new short sale agent search features.
That reminds me......please add yourself to the short sale agent referral map. We want to be able to find you to give you business. Just hover on the "Find an Agent" tab and you'll see the link to the map.
OK one more thing. Groups. Groups are the backbone of the site. Being able to find accurate info on the lenders we are working with is paramount to our success. If you are working with a short sale lender and can't find a group set up for them then please set one up. Or email me, Wendy or Jeff and we'll set it up for you.
I can't stress enough how important this is. The group should be set up in the name of the short sale lender. It should have current contact information, web address and any forms they require as part of their short sale package. You can place this stuff in the first text box. Ask for help if you need it.
We really want to make sure the short sale lender information is kept current. Please help. OK?
OK I think that's it for now. As always let us know if there is anything we can do to improve the site. Our goal is to make this the best place on the web for folks dealing with short sales to get their information. How are we doing so far?

I was talking with an agent, “Janice” today, and asked if she planned on closing at least two sales a month in 2010.I could tell by the look on her face the answer was no.She could not even imagine that much in sales.She tried to notch up the optimism and said, “I should plan on it, I know….”.
Well,guess what? If you don’t plan on making a certain number of sales-- if that number is not even in your realm of possibility-- then what are your chances?Will someone who never pictures himself in a new home ever own one?Will someone who feels she is undesirable ever attract a mate?Will a father whoexpects bad behavior from his child ever achieve peace? It is doubtful you will do or receive any better than what you imagine.We must fulfill our beliefs about ourselves.
Read the following “imaginings” and see if you can find the key to achieving your dreams.
Imagine - You develop a system of handling 20 sales per month, but you have a problem, you need to hire another assistant.Where will they sit?
Imagine – You have bought your dream home in the mountains, but the road is difficult in winter.Do you need to buy an SUV?
Imagine – You lost 40 pounds, but you were saving a fantastic dress for a cruise.Where can you find the best tailor?
Imagine – You’ve finally found your perfect spouse.You’ve been married for two years, and you want to start a family.Where will you move?
Are you getting the picture?The clue to success in achieving our dreams is accepting them as already here!And then… moving beyond that reality.When you accept something as if you have already achieved it, your outlook will change, and you will relax.You will stop sending too much “want” energy into the universe and will be able to bring forth your goals naturally, because it’s already done!

Normally, we all recognize scam emails trying to swindle money. Typically, these mass emails claim to be foreign heads-of-state who want to deposit millions of dollars in YOUR bank account. We hit the "delete" button and forget about them. Well, my office was recently targeted for a more sophisticated real estate scam. In this case, it was not just a mass email. The culprit, "Dr. Chang Wong" filled out a detailed property search form that gave us pause:
NameAddress:Dr. Chang Wong
Banshan County, Gongshu Dct, Hangzhou Zhejiang 310022
PriceRange:$500,000.00USD to $900,000.00USD
Comments:Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Dr. Chang Wong The Chief Financial Officer for Cnooc Limited, China. We are currently looking to buy a house inany nice neighborhood for our Retering president of our company.
We are currently looking to buy a four (4) to sixbed rooms house with the price ranging from $500,000.00USD to $900,000.00USD and we would want to retain your lawyer in all the process buying the property e.g. documentation and payment. Please if you have properties with similar description please contact me as soon as possible so that we can make arrangement for the payment and all paper work. My client is willing to make a full payment of any choosing property. Please contact me at my email: changwong_cnooclimited@asia.com
I was not sure if this was a fake, so we initially treated the lead as real. One of my team members sent Dr. Wong a list of homes, and he corresponded back by email. He picked an $850,000 house in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, and asked for names of attorneys to represent him. Again, communicating by email, he picked one of the local law firms and wanted to solidify a contract. All along, we were suspicious this might be a scam, but a bit optimistic. Dr. Wong could be an international jet-setter that just buys homes without viewing them, right?
The next clue that Dr. Wong might be a scam-artist came was undeniable. Read his email:
BUYER AND SELLER AGREE TO DEPOSIT $300,000.00 AGAINST THE PROPERTY, CHECK TO BE SENT BY STOCKBROKER. BUYER WILL ADD ADDITIONAL $200,000.00 TOTAL $500,000.00 THIS MONEY WILL BE USE TO BUY A NEW APPLIANCES FOR THE PROPERTY, ALL THE MONEYS IN THE LAWYER COMPANY'S TRUST ACCOUNT BUYER AND SELLER AGREE TO ALLOW THE LAWYERS TO DISPERSE MONEYS AT THE BUYERS REQUEST; A MINIMUM OF $300,000.00 MUST STAY IN THE LAWYERS COMPANY TRUST ACCOUNT UNTIL SAID TRANSACTION CLOSES. BUYER HERE BY REMOVE ANY ALL CONTINGENCIES ON SAID PURCHASE AGREEMENT
$500,000 for new appliances, Dr. Wong?With a "check" from your stockbroker, not wired funds? That some "bank" will verify as authentic? OK, hold on! Dr. Wong, appliances might only cost $10,000! Were you thinking the excess $490,000 would be wired back to you in REAL AMERICAN DOLLARS. BUSTED!!
The local attorney contacted the FBI, and we learned that Dr. Wong is really in Nigeria (where else?). Further, there is nothing the FBI can do, since it is practically untraceable and overseas.
So, be warned. I have since found Dr. Wong on other real estate sites, filling out forms and making inquiries. Don't be the one who sells him a house.
It's Wendy!
