California Loan Modifcation agents Kidnapped and Tortured-
If you are thinking of doing loan Mod's in California you better get results! This we learned from the recent kidnapping and torture of a couple loan mod agents that didn't get the job done!
I have heard of work related stress but come on here.....
There is the new law that took effect recently that says "no up front fee's"...you only get paid when it happens....this should hopefully help home owners across California.
Losing your home is a very stressful event....no doubt about it....there comes a time when you have to go left … (1 comments)

What I learned from a 6 year old about real estate..... - 10/29/09 11:55 AM
The market is certainly different than it was 4-5 years ago so I have been doing things that I have never done before.I had a phone book on my kitchen table and struggled with picking it up and making some cold calls...I left the book on the table and had my 6 year old for the afternoon as I usually do on Tuedays and Thursdays.
He looked at the phone book and said "Daddy what is the phone book doing on the table?"...I responded that I was using it to call people to see if they needed my services. He replied … (3 comments)

Redding Ca Reo's and good deals.... - 10/29/09 11:35 AM
Everyone is shopping for a deal...I am no different. The fact that the majority of the deals are in Short Sales and in REO's can not be overlooked.The banks unlike many sellers want to get their properties sold Quickly!
The banks for the most part reduce the price automatically every 30-45 days if they don't have an offer...Sellers can learn from this....Sellers can also as learn from the banks that price right in the beginning and get multiple offers!!
Here are some greater Redding area REO's to check out.
Where are the deals??? IN the REO's and Short Sales is the … (0 comments)

Redding Ca Real Estate owners that need help with a loan mod can now rejoice! - 10/26/09 05:46 PM
The Senate recently passed a bill that out laws the up front fees that many attorney's and real estate people and companies have charged.
Now similar to Realtor's the client pays ONLY if there is a successful result! This is the way it has always been for real estate agents and Realtor's...no sale....no pay....now it's the same for Loan Modification.
This is a good thing.It's good because too many people hired companies off the Internet to do their loan mods and they didn't get done!! They still had to pay and got nothing for their money!
I had some clients that … (1 comments)

Boy in home made Balloon real or a superbly crafted PR stunt? Time will tell.... - 10/15/09 03:59 PM
It's a bizarre story. One that I hope has a great ending.Apparently a boy climbed onto and into a home made balloon that took off and went for miles.The family which includes an amateur scientist (the father) made this device which looks something out of a UFO movie in the backyard.
Let's hope the little guy is ok and didn't fall out!
When the family isn't chasing storms they are looking for ET....no really....
Superb stunt/PR or real life extra ordinary story? Time will tell....

Redding Ca Mortgage Fraud News - 10/07/09 03:45 PM
It was bound to happen sooner or later.The market went too crazy for too long and some lenders took advantage and did some things that they should not have.The local news here in Redding Reports that a former local lender is behind bars and others may indeed be investigated in this latest rash of crimes.
In the Real Estate and Mortgage business reputation is Everything! Redding might only be 90k+ but word does indeed travel fast....especially of the bad or negative nature.
