FANNIE MAE AND FREDDIE MAC ARE BIG PLAYERS, AS IS THE FEDERAL RESERVE. ARE THEY THE ONES REALLY FORECLOSING UNDER COVER OF SECURITIZATION? EDITOR’S NOTE: Another entry under the […]

I like this post from a reader in Colorado. Besides knowing what he is talking about, he raises some good issues. For example the original issue discount. Normally it is the fee for the underwriter. But this is a cover for a fee on steroids. They took money from the investor and then “bought” (without […]

Editors Note: If anything shows the extent of appraisal fraud, it is the sheer number of homes that are under water. These figures while high, report only a fraction of the actual number of homes because of the way they are computed. If you take the asking price, reduce it by at least 4% (which […]

Nobody ever thought that returning a lady’s purse to her after a purse snatcher ran away with it was a gift. So why is anyone contesting returning the purse to homeowners who had their lives snatched from them? The baby steps of the Obama administration are frustrating.
