This funny bit has been making the rounds on Facebook and the real estate blogs. It's some comic relief for those of us mired down in the bureaucracy. I spent the last couple of months working with some buyers who successfully purchased a Bank-Owned home. What makes it so funny is that it is so true to life!
This would be even funnier if it wasn't so painfully true.

Another North Idaho Loan Modification Company, HomeModifier, Gets Busted!
It wasn't long ago that Apply 2 Save went down in legal flames after ripping off scads of vulnerable homeowners trying to make the best of a bad situation. In the news this week is the tale of another loan modification company that didn't deliver what people paid big money for them to do. APS Northwest LLC, operating under the name HomeModifier in Spokane Valley and Post Falls, is being charged with a scam by the Idaho attorney general.
The AG filed legal action in the First District Court this week with an order to hand over tens of thousands in civil penalties for false representation, false advertising, and failing to perform services.
The complaint states, "Defendants accepted thousands of dollars from dozens of consumers for mortgage modification services that defendants never provided, that they were not qualified to provide, and that defendants were not authorized to provide."
BEWARE of LOAN MODIFICATION COMPANIES! I have written several articles about loan modifications and how these companies charge HUGE fees to do something that you can do yourself. In many cases,as with HomeModifier, they take your money and leave you hanging. For some important loan modification information please read:
Loan modifications are FRUSTRATING to attempt to accomplish, and increasingly I am hearing of horror stories from good folks who should qualify but can't make it happen in spite of their best efforts. The facts are that in most cases it is NOT in the lenders best financial interest to modify a loan.
It seems as if they are intentionally trying to make it as difficult as they can. It can seem tempting to someone who is emotionally stressed and financially overwhelmed to pay a fee for not having to personally deal with a lender. But proceed with EXTREME CAUTION!
As for HomeModifier, the Attorney General is ordering LLC managers Randy Paul Allen, Travis Wayne Smith and Clint Ty Paulson to pay restitution to everyone who suffered economic damages from their conduct. They have also been ordered to pay attorney's fees and investigation costs, and they can't engage in business in the state of Idaho again. Good!

On Labor Day I received a call from a wonderful family who wanted to look at a couple of bank repo homes for sale on Coeur d'Alene Lake. They had decided the timing was right to purchase a vacation home on Coeur d'Alene Lake and it was my privilege to assist them in getting a great value on a stellar property. Inventory is high and buyers are scarce. There has NEVER been a better time than right now to be a buyer on Coeur d'Alene Lake!This has been a long distance closing, they live out of state and I am in Colorado at the moment on a working vacation with my son's family. The call just came in that the transaction has funded and has been recorded. We're closed! No Success Story photo with my smiling clients this time, but imagine the photo ops this summer as they park their boat outside their back door or spend time on the private Captain Kidd Association sandy beach. Or spend evenings watching the twinkling lights at the Coeur d'Alene Resort across the bay.
The home they chose is a charming A-frame on a peninsula with three other homes, in Kidd Island Bay. It's a 1,938 square foot two story with an attached double garage and water frontage in front AND back! It was last purchased in 2006 for $575,000. It had been listed for a time as a short sale at $450,000. When we made our offer it was a Bank repo REO on Coeur d'Alene Lake that had recently been reduced to just under $400,000. We negotiated for a few weeks, and in the end they are getting a true SCREAMING DEAL on a stellar Coeur d'Alene Lake waterfront home for $340,000! Congratulations Jack and Gayle!
