Strategic Defaulters Unite For Personal Economic Recovery!  :>)  Much self serving testosterone saturated bovine dropping have been published promoting the idea that consumers were some how duped into mortgage loans they were to stupid to understand.

Balderdash!

There are only individual humorous antidotal proofs of such causes and only primary and general election results to support the idea of mass idiocy.

For what ever reason we did experience that first wave of foreclosures.  Strategic default has seemingly been forced upon you by the systematic sabotage of your hard earned equity by banks, bankers, appraisers and their regulators, luting both home owners and their own stock holders.

With the first round of foreclosures the banks (including all forms that ended up in control of the foreclosed properties.) ignored their fiduciary duty to their stock holders. Abandon their obligations to their debtors. Flaunted the very duties agreed to by accepting a privilege license to do business, in the first place!

The first attack on your equity and their stock holders security was dumping large numbers of REO's on the market at below market value. This not only caused higher deficience balances for the troubled debtors, it caused the bank's owned stock holders to take greater losses than necessary. An unintended consequence was the lowering of all home values in their service area.

When these REO's did sell and subsequently individual home owners sold their properties, these very banks forced appraisers to violated a century old appraisal policy of ignoring distress sales when determining value. This further reduced private equities causing the REO's to be reduce further to remain below market, again reducing private equities in a never ending chain. 

As REO volume grew and short sale request became common did the banks determine properties values by the use of licensed appraisers, at an arms length as they demanded of the consumers? No they used BPO's! Licensed real estate people but not acting in the scope of their license, when an agent provides a BPO for cash that's an appraisal, not to be confused with providing the same information to a buyer or seller in an attempt to secure a listing or sale. Without the safe guards we're told are so necessary for an appraisal! We can only assume these non-appraisers non-appraisals further lowered every ones equity.

Strategic Defaulters Unite For Personal Economic Recovery! :>) It is time for the biggest tort claim since the tobacco settlements! Strategic Defaulters Unite in a class action against every bank that has destroyed your equities by selling REO's below market in the last two years.

Included every institution accepting short sales below market in the last three years.

Included every appraiser who included distress sales as comparables in the last two years. (This will allow all sellers in the last two years weather successful or not to be additional plaintiffs.)  

The suit will be based on conspiracy, violation of public trust, interference with business, and racketeering under The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, RICO standards.

Strategic Defaulters Unite For Personal Economic Recovery!

I have no interest in such an action. I don't necessarily believe in such actions, but this is a logical conclusion based on all I read.

Interesting proposition.  Be careful, Bill.  There may be a few folks reading this who start to salivate at the legal possibilities of such an action.

I'm with you on having no interest in such an action.

Bill, This post sounds just about right. I was searching the MLS this morning and actually saw a house in my market for $17,000. Of course it was an REO. If you were to build a house on the lot this house sits on the impact fees alone are almost $20,000!! Does that  give you some idea of how out of whack that $17,000 price is? The other properties in the neighborhood just took a major hit in value.

Bill, it would not surprise me at all to see something like this take place, there are always people out there looking to profit off of others misfortune.

By the way the idea that Buyers were to stupid to understand what their monthly payment was when they purchased a house is "Balderdash!"

Bill,

But how can the appraiser not to use the distressed sales figures? In a condohotel, where there were 27 sales in the last year 100% of them were short sales and REOs for incredibly low prices.

Where they can take the 'normal' sales figures in the abnormal market?

What are they to do?

Jon,

Today your question makes sense! I to believe that when distress sales dominate the market, they must be considered. However, this was a major change in appraisals in the last two years and it's added to the sharp decline in values.

"But how can the appraiser not to use the distressed sales figures?"

"What are they to do?" I don't know!

Now how could I not laugh at your little rant that is so true of what the banks are doing. Why the banks are even making short sales go down in value even more by taking so much to decide what to take on them. They buyers offer less because of the amount of time they know they are going to have to wait, it has nothing to do with what they feel the actual value of the property is.

Todd,

It is indeed a never ending chain!

I would never blame the buyers! Buyers educated buyers should be offering less if they think the seller will take less. I blame the sellers! Not that private sellers have much choice.

"Accual value" has never been tied to price! you should never pay more than "accual value," but home buyers offten do.
