Another Countrywide Settlement: And Still No Disclosure of What Is Wrong

Unknown's avatarLivinglies's Weblog

assuming the investors got some or all of their investment back, under what circumstances would there exist (a) a default and (b) an enforceable loan contract and (c) ANY definable amount for “reinstatement” required under virtually all written mortgages and notes — signed only by the homeowner and missing any contract or other document in which the lender agreed to be the lender and was in fact the creditor making the loan?

So just to set the stage: we have had hundreds, if not thousands, of settlements between investors and the banks, between government and the banks and between individual “borrowers” and the banks (the latter always being under seal of confidentiality). The Department of Justice has set the tone by declining to get into…

US States Under Pressure As World Pushes For Financial Transparency

Calling it like we all see it. “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his job depends on not understanding it.” –Uptown Sinclair, I, Candidate for Govenor (1935)

U.S. states Nevada, Wyoming and Delaware are facing growing pressure to address their lack of corporate transparency, as the United States and the international community continue to respond to fallout from the Panama Papers.

At a London anti-corruption summit on Thursday, representatives from the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and the Isle of Man warned that the “hypocrisy” of the U.S. was hurting the global push for greater financial transparency.

The summit, hosted by British Prime Minister David Cameron and attended by leaders and high-ranking officials from around the world, has drawn increased public attention after the Panama Papers investigation by ICIJ, German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and more than 100 media partners revealed new details about how the world’s rich and powerful use and sometimes abuse secrecy jurisdictions and tax havens.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry compared the threat posed by corruption to the threat posed by terrorism, and urged attendees…

California Supreme Court’s decision on old foreclosure may cost future borrowers

Oh what a stupid threat. Technical error? Is that like ministerial clean up? Get a grip dude, the only reason loans were not timely assigned is because they are merely pledged “nemo dat” to the trust until default. Meanwhile, the big boys are using the collateral in rehypothecation deals to beef up their miserable bottom lines. It ain’t no “technicality” – just like these aren’t traditional mortgage loans. These are securities transactions from the onset with no disclosure to the homeowner.

SAN FRANCISCO — The cost to obtain a home loan may go up due to a recent California Supreme Court decision that paves the way for homeowners in default to challenge the validity of their foreclosure, according to a financial industry attorney specializing in lending disputes and real estate.

The California Supreme Court ruled earlier this year in Yvanova v. New Century Mortgage Corporation that “a home loan borrower has standing to claim a non-judicial foreclosure was wrongful” if the foreclosing party does not have the authority to order a trustee‘s sale.

In 2006, New Century granted Tsvetana Yvanova a $483,000 mortgage. The lender went bankrupt the following year. New Century is said to have pooled, securitized and transferred Yvanova’s mortgage to trustee Western Progressive in 2011. Yvanova subsequently defaulted on her loan, and Western Progressive auctioned her home in 2012.

Yvanova’s lawsuit argues the foreclosure was illegal and void…

The Beginning or the End for Loan Servicer Ocwen?

Are we ready to invent the new Monopoly game? Can’t you just picture it? Instead of Boardwalk and Park Place we get Chase and BofA; Connecticut, Vermont and Oriental Avenues become AHMSI, Homeward Residential and Ocwen. There’d be a lot more get out of jail free cards and Community Chest would become Office of Controller of Currency and Chance would be Federal Reserve. Yeah, I can envision the entire game – how many times can we bankrupt them?!

Ocwen Financial, one of the largest subprime mortgage servicers in America, has big problems. Analysts predict that Ocwen will be forced to file bankruptcy as the SEC opens up two more investigations into the loan servicers business practices while the stock goes into free-fall.

A further hurdle will befall homeowners if Ocwen files for bankruptcy protection because another shield is placed between the homeowners and the banks who are the culprits- but just happen to control all of the “loan” information. As Neil Garfield would say, “They have plenty of bodies to throw under the bus.” To date, homeowners and their attorneys in litigation have been frustrated by attempts to discover who the true creditor is especially when the servicer hides behind bankruptcy, mergers and receivership (Fannie and Freddie).

Ocwen reported a $247 million annual loss while revenues tumbled 17.5% last week at the same time the…

The Strategic Warfare of Mortgage “Servicing”

All of this is painfully true.

Unknown's avatarLivinglies's Weblog

By William Hudson
You can choose your sexual orientation and even your ethnicity but you can’t change your loan servicer. Mortage “servicing” is the ultimate misnomer. Modern loan servicing has nothing to do with service but instead provides a “disservice” in order to boost profits or engineer a default if at all possible. Being forced to contract with a sketchy loan servicer is like being forced to stay married to a spouse who lies, cheats and steals all your money.


The servicer’s job is to collect payments and manage the day to day operations of the loan, but servicers have taken on the new role of “default engineer” and “disinformation agent”. The servicers have found a new way of increasing profits and it is at the expense of a customer who has no choice in regards to who services their mortgage.


It is likely that the servicing rights to your…

Filing on the Eve of Foreclosure: Sometimes It Works, and Sometimes It Doesn’t

Chapter 11 is reorganization – much like modification of a loan. Chapter 7 is liquidation and dumping debt. Emerging from Chapter 11 is remarkable in an of itself, because most companies get pushed into Chapter 7 by their [stupid] creditors. It is better to reorganize the debt than to dump it – because forcing someone into Chapter 7 pays the creditors little to nothing even if there is money in the estate – because as everyone in the bankruptcy realm knows, the bankruptcy trustee, his attorneys and the administration get paid first and they usually fee crank all the money out of the debtor’s estate.

Putin points the finger at Goldman Sachs

Watch out Vladimir – Gaddafi called them out too after GS sucked $1.3 Billion out of his account…and look what happened to him.

justiceleague00's avatarJustice League

Russian President Vladimir Putin labeled media reports surrounding the Panama Papers as “provocation” on Thursday and effectively pointed the finger at U.S. investment bank Goldman Sachs.

Vladimir Putin launched his fourteenth annual citizen call-in session as Russian president on Thursday, just months ahead of a key parliamentary elections that will test support for the leader’s party.

The much-reported Panama Papers revelations came up within the second hour of questions. Putin didn’t question their validity, but he said that Seuddeutsche Zeitung – a German newspaper that was heavily involved with the reporting – was obligated to Goldman Sachs. Both Goldman Sachs and Seuddeutsche Zeitung were not immediately available for comment when contacted by CNBC.

GOLDMAN SACHS AND OTHER BIG AMERICAN BANKS ABOUND IN ICIJ PANAMA PAPERS DATABASE

This took some research! Impressive!

justiceleague00's avatarJustice League

Yesterday, I stated that I didn’t find JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America in the ICIJ Panama Papers database. I only search only in the US and never expanded into other countries. Well, those two banks are found in the database. In fact, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are among the American banks in the database. In addition, the database also named foreign banks with a strong presence in the U.S., including HSBC, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, BNP Paribas, Société Générale, ABN Amro, Credit Suisse and UBS. Here are the list:
