Brief Sale Genius Transforms Real Estate Agents, Morph into ‘Family Saving Professionals’

Posted on by

San Diego, California (PRWEB) May possibly 7, 2009

On Could 21st, 2009 in San Diego, Ca, Lee Honish will teach his 300th seminar since ending a 20+ year career as a foreclosure asset manager/loss mitigator, operating for huge mortgage lenders. His exclusive coaching turns much of the classic “short sale techniques” upside down and shows genuine estate specialists the new way of helping with the nation’s glut of homes in foreclosure.

&#13

Only 20% of agents are profitable at closing a quick sale they commence, that means eight out of 10 families that place their trust in an agent will shed their house in a foreclosure. Lee Honish a profession asset manager and loss mitigator (http://BeAShortSaleGenius.com) says, “saving 20% is deplorable and there is no great cause for it! Agents are sensible sufficient and most are capable, they have just been obtaining the incorrect advice from absolutely everyone speaking about quick sales.” Honish knows, he has been a profession asset manager for the final 22 years, helping such large banks as GMAC, Homecomings and most not too long ago IndyMac Bank to limit their losses by way of loss mitigation. “Loan modifications are the greatest alternative followed closely by quick sale and lastly the selection nobody desires, foreclosure.” Because 2006 Honish has been actively education actual estate agents and investors and stopped operating for the banks in 2007.

&#13

Honish gives a fresh point of view to the market reminding actual estate professionals that they, “have to comprehend why banks do what they do and function with each other to solve the issue.”

&#13

The recent rise in property default rates is contributing to a necessity in the marketplace for qualified professionals to support home owners in distress and facing foreclosure. First American Core Logic stated that as of the finish of December, 8.3 million U.S. mortgages, which equals 20 percent of all properties with a mortgage, had been in a unfavorable equity position. Foreclosures actually grew by 30% in February of 2009 from the very same time the prior year according to RealtyTrac a foreclosure tracking and information firm. The statistics are startling but the need to have for relief has not gone unassisted by the federal government. There are applications in spot to assist both banks and homeowners resolve the problems arising out of defaulting mortgages.

&#13

President Bush instituted the Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 to support property owners that qualify, who go via a quick sale, to be exempt from any taxes due caused by the lender’s loss linked with a brief sale. The crucial is they have to steer clear of foreclosure by way of a quick sale to qualify. In February, President Obama unveiled his ‘Foreclosure Plan’, each are very good indicators that homeowners in distress are becoming offered aid.

&#13

The dilemma seems arise out of the fact that several home owners just never attain out to the helping hand the government and lenders have extended. Intersinc recently reported that a homeowner in foreclosure receives much more than 20 pieces of direct mail from their bank before the foreclosure ever happens. That seems like plenty of chances to make deal, so where is the disconnect?

&#13

Al Stimer, a effective real estate broker from Florida, said he went via a rough patch in his true estate business in 2007, “I had in no way been to any other brief sale or loss mitigation coaching. By December of 2008 I had closed 187 short sales and had 200 households in the pipeline, its an easy business for me, I reside in Italy part of the year and have my employees operating the situations.” An uncommon outcome for sure, its all more than the media that several agents are struggling in this down marketplace.

&#13

Yet another agent generating uncommon good results is Patricia Villanueva from Vista, Ca. She helped over 58 families final year, her impact is mostly focused on providing relief to a neighborhood frequently targeted by scammers, the Latino community. “I do not do any marketing and advertising, all my consumers refer 3 people occasionally a lot more. It can be a difficult company at times, individuals are depressed and embarrassed. I do my very best to assist them feel at peace and ‘hold their hand’ in the approach. Losing your residence is not an straightforward factor to go by means of and they deserve support.”

&#13

The economic indicators do not point toward a speedy recovery of house values, foreclosures are on the rise but with new applications for property owners and tax relief presented by the government, home owners have solutions. The key is obtaining a skilled capable of offering better than a 20% success rate to distressed home owners.”It is not as difficult to function with banks as folks have led you to think. Banks want to sell these properties ahead of foreclosure.”, says Lee Honish, “True estate specialists just want to place the right method to operate for them, so they can be a element of the solution, not a element of the issue.”

&#13

On May 21st, 2009 Honish will host his 300th event, a milestone as he has only been carrying out this given that 2007. “Most of my life was spent inside the walls of massive lending institutions, it is satisfying to supply valuable education to a group of experts in our nation that desperately need to have to pull collectively.”

REST Report Puts Loan Disposition Information Utilised by Banks Into the Hands of Buyers

Posted on by


IRVINE, California (PRWEB) June 16, 2010

United Law Group nowadays announced that the law firm was granted an exclusive license to use the REST Report when helping distressed property owners. The law firm was selected based on its track record for helping home owners to function toward resolutions with their home loans, including permanent modifications, trial modifications, forbearances, and extensions on sale dates.

&#13

The REST Report produces an 11-page document based on home specifics and person monetary specifics. The details compares, from the banks perspective, the expense of foreclosure to the a variety of monetary outcomes that could outcome from modifying a mortgage. Property owners can use the report to support their specific request for a loan modification or to find out right away what their other choices could be.

&#13

The banks are in company to make cash regardless of what that indicates to property owners, stated United Law Group Managing Director Robert Buscho. The REST Report provides property owners a leg up when attempting to negotiate with their lender directly because it brings to light economic proof of why a bank should take into account the modification. This is specially beneficial in talks with servicers who have been called out for allegedly pursuing foreclosure because of the income involved.

&#13

Buscho references a report published by the National Customer Law Center, which alludes to the reality that some servicers really profit if a distressed property goes into foreclosure. This report was cited in an article on MSN titled, Why Servicers Foreclose, When They Should Modify, and Other Puzzles of Servicer Behavior. The post states that, servicers, as opposed to investors or property owners, typically don’t danger losing funds on foreclosures.

&#13

In yet another report titled Calculating the Net Present Value (NPV) of a Foreclosure vs. a Loan Modification published on CBS MoneyWatch, Ilyce Glink states that servicers enter numbers into a complex formula to choose whether the homeowner gets a loan modification or not. According to the report, home owners arent getting told that the NPV calculations are the purpose why their loan modification applications are getting rejected. Theyre basically being told You dont qualify. And, theyre left hanging for weeks and even months waiting for that opaque answer.

&#13

The REST Report provides NPV and other information to property owners and illustrates the accurate worth of the loan to the lender. Evaluating the NPV analytics to determine if the loan falls within HAMP suggestions, the REST Report helps borrowers to ascertain if they qualify for HAMP and offers them info that their lender will not.

&#13

Homeowners can use the info contained in the report to position their request properly when approaching their lender, mentioned Buscho.

&#13

States such as Indiana, Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New York, Oregon, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Delaware, Wisconsin, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Florida, Kentucky, Rhode Island and Illinois call for a mediated session amongst the borrower and the bank prior to foreclosure. Providing the State Appointed Mediator with the REST Report, even if it does not show a borrower qualifies for HAMP, will give the mediator much more to go on when suggesting alternatives to foreclosure, as the report gives viable function-out choices that could be offered.

&#13

Though unlikely, it is feasible that in the most intense circumstances, it could be required to turn to the courts to settle such a dispute, and the REST Report can be invaluable proof in such a proceeding. With out this report, borrowers have nothing to support their claims that they are HAMP-qualified.

&#13

One particular of the most frequent mistakes we see is property owners focusing on the hardships, mentioned Buscho. Even though this is a portion of the picture, the banks concentrate on the net impact of foreclosure vs. modification to their bottom line. Armed with the REST Report, home owners have a significantly-necessary tool to make their case.

&#13

Property owners living in states not requiring mediation and those who do not meet the requirements of HAMP also advantage from the report. The REST Report delivers loan disposition information for specific lenders so borrowers can approach their lender with realistic options.

&#13

This information can be utilized to strategy investors for non-conforming loans and illustrate why it is in their ideal interest to modify the terms of a loan, mentioned Buscho. If the lenders and servicers deny homeowners their fundamental rights, the home owners can use that data to defend their residences via legal channels.

&#13

About the REST Report&#13

The REST Report is a report generated by the REST application platform, which is a loan disposition evaluation method that, in numerous types, is used by significant banks and mortgage servicers. Financial institutions use systems like REST to analyze the various choices offered when a loan may not be repaid as agreed by a borrower. The purpose of such evaluation is to make certain that the bank can choose the path that gives the greatest monetary outcome achievable.
