Here is a good article from NYT but once again they are describing the news instead of reporting it. No investigation.

By Walter Hackett, Esq. The federal government has trumpeted its Home Affordable Modification Program or “HAMP” solution as THE solution to runaway foreclosures – few things could be further from the truth.  Under HAMP a homeowner will be offered a “workout” that can result in the homeowner being “worked out” of his or her home.  […]

The principal enablers of our current difficulties were institutions that took on enormous risk by exploiting regulatory gaps between banks and the nonbank shadow financial system, and by using unregulated over-the-counter derivative contracts to develop volatile and potentially dangerous products. Consumers continue to face huge gaps in personal financial protections. We also lack a credible […]

This is an article that ought to be faxed to every judge, lawmaker, member of the executive branch, lawyer, foreclosure victim, and investor.

See 15522201-Tila-Disclosure-Req-Viol-Remedies Amongst the various emails, requests for assistance and comments on the blog there are some threads. Most people, even lawyers, mistake the remedy of rescission for something else.

BofA’s Countrywide loses court ruling on mortgages — Modifications Not Authorized By Investor May be Invalid There is lots of significance about this decision.

From Kevin A McKenna. A very good explanation about MERS and nominees. Note especially the reference to creating two entities to exercise collection and foreclosure instead of one thus reinforcing the argument of financial double jeopardy. The MERS deed would therefore be void, as he says. Thus there would be no security, probably no note […]

See Asset Securitization Comptroller’s Handbook The basic model we have developed tracks the money and with that, the intent behind seemingly irrational decisions. For example, why would any lender seeking to make a profit grant a loan whose interest payments were greater than the gross income of the borrower? That is not taking a risk. […]
