foreclosure: Another Homeowner Saved from foreclosure in Henderson, NV - 02/14/11 02:02 AM
Jerry -- Henderson, NV "We had a very high loan principal, $837k, and could not afford to make more the $6k payments anymore. By sheer luck I found the AHP website just after we stopped making payments. After reviewing my situation, they agreed to take on BofA. It was a very high dollar, complicated transaction…but they succeeded in keeping us in our home and giving us an opportunity to own it again one day! If you are in a similar situation I highly recommend discussing your options with AHP. There are no guarantees when dealing with unpredictable financial institutions, but the … (0 comments)

foreclosure: Ocwen Foreclosure Watch 2011 - 01/01/11 01:17 AM
Time is running out as Ocwen has upcoming foreclosure sales on homes. There is hope: Ocwen has approved American Homeowner Preservation (AHP) short sales for each of these families, but is insisting that the families move out.
According to the website, AHP works with homeowners' lenders to approve short sales, discounting their loans by an average of over 60%. With these steep discounts, AHP can offer families an affordable lease and an option to repurchase their homes at a fraction of what the family previously owed. Thus, AHP creates equity and the incentive for families to stay and pay, preventing foreclosures … (1 comments)

foreclosure: Vindictive servicer of the day: ING Direct - 01/01/11 01:12 AM
FROM Felix Salmon of Reuters: I'm a longstanding fan of American Homeowner Preservation, which has found a clever way of keeping underwater homeowners in their homes while minimizing the loss to their lenders. Even the red-in-tooth-and-claw capitalists at Goldman Sachs can understand that. But not, it seems, the idiots at ING Direct:
ING Direct, the Dutch bank and internet-based mortgage lender, has objected to American Homeowner Preservation's program to keep families in their homes, and ING will no longer consider AHP short sales. "ING DIRECT will also be adding your company to our exclusionary list as your company strictly finds investors … (0 comments)

foreclosure: "I Don't Like Seeing My Wife Cry" - 12/05/10 01:42 PM
Sharing a home for 19 years
Only to end in tears
Construction business began to shatter
This flooring contractor
 
His business went into the tank
He applied to his lender, One West Bank
Like the government told him to
Hoping that HAMP was really true
 
Interest rate was about to rise
Mortgage payments felt like being stuck in a vise
The family requested a mortgage modification
Only received damnation
 
The lenghty modification review
Went down like bad stew
Without denying the mod
What happened next smelled like fraud
 
Or at least someone should be deposed
The family was … (2 comments)

“The best thing, if there is a great thing, is that not everybody hates you,” said Tommy Reed, who served with the 101st Air Assault Division in Iraq. “You come across people who do not hate you, and see you as someone who freed them from a dictator. Sometimes these dirt poor families are so grateful. You see true gratitude – that was rewarding,” explained Mr. Reed, who is now engaged in a homeland battle to save his Pinson, Alabama home of 13 years. He owes $54,918 to GMAC and fell behind on his mortgage when he lost his security job due to seizure … (0 comments)

foreclosure: Family Averts Foreclosure and Plants Cherry Blossom - 07/21/10 04:05 AM


In the midst of a year-long battle to save their home of 18 years from foreclosure, the Baker family of Windham, Ohio made a pact: if they saved their home, they would plant a cherry blossom tree in the front yard. After Litton Loan Servicing first rejected a modification request and then a short sale offer from American Homeowner Preservation because it allowed the family to stay in their home with a five-year affordable lease and favorable option to repurchase, weeds were more likely to sprout instead of a cherry blossom. However, five days prior to the sheriff’s sale, Reuters’ financial blogger Felix … (5 comments)

foreclosure: Seven Steps to Speedy Short Sales - 06/30/10 03:33 AM

Pathetic Ocwen lags the pack, averaging 29 months to process a short sale. Their competition is only marginally better, with sluggish Saxon at 17 months, HomEq 16 months, Bank of America 11 months, Aurora 10 months, First Horizon 9 months, EMC and Wells Fargo relatively spry at 8 months, Citimortgage 7.5 months, and GMAC ranked top gun at 6 months. According to a Deutsche Bank report examining the speed at which servicers conduct short sales, most American homeowners can go from conception to birth faster than completing a short sale. Although short sales are the tool du jour to combat the … (4 comments)
