HECM/REVERSE MORTGAGES LISTINGS

It has just come to my attention the HUD does not require HECM/ Reverse mortgages to be listed on the MLS.  Has anyone else run into this?  I have been negotiating short sales in south Florida for over 10 years and I was just made aware of this.

Short Sale Vs Short Pay Off

You often hear the term Short Sale and Short Pay. They both are programs that involve a servicer review and a that a lien holder is being shorted and taking a loss on the mortgage payoff. They are similar in that nature but the outcome is distinguished as one program transfers the home to a new purchaser and the other is a designed for a borrower to retain ownership of their home.

In a short sale you are going through a detailed review with the mortgage servicer(s) and lien holders to…

SPS / Chase Backed Asset

Hey everyone!

If you haven't run into this yet, be aware that Select Portfolio Servicing (SPS) with Chase backed assets have a new guideline that can throw a wrench in the transaction. They are only allowing one short sale review! Meaning that if the buyer walks or if the deal is denied for a low offer, you won't be able to try again.

I had an approval and the buyer walked then they would not allow us to submit at the same terms due to this guideline. We also had a…

Short Sale with HERO Assessment

As anyone dealt with any short sale lenders that will agree to pay the HERO tax assessment?  Are lenders declining short sales due to the HERO being a "future" tax bill rather than a current or delinquent tax?  Need responses

Sorry.....There's Just No Such Thing As A Great "But"!!!

Nationstar is now Mr. Cooper!

Nationstar is now Mr. Cooper! They do have a new Mr. Cooper letterhead authorization letter and they are still utilizing equator. Nothing internally has changed to our understanding of the short sale process for now. This was a move to re-brand the company.

HUD lien junior to the first mortgage.

We had a surprise just before closing on what we thought was a traditional sale.  We found out the seller had a loan modification in 2015 that include and $80,000 junior lien from HUD. This made the payoff about $20,000 short to close and HUD would have to agree to take $60,000 to $65,000 and release the lien and note. According to the seller's attorney, HUD doesn't negotiate.  I don't believe that because after 500+ closed short sales I've never experienced a lender that would not work with…

Approval Problems

Has anyone been having an even more difficult time getting the approvals over the last 4-5 months than usual?  Seems like lenders are holding back since the market has gotten better or is it just me?

Shellpoint

Been working a short sale with Shellpoint as the first for over 2 years.  Wells Fargo as the second.  1mil a piece owed on both.  Wells, 2nd removes their lien and will issue 1099.  Shellpoint has been playing games with the file and now on the 4th processor.  Give them everything they requested, for the 12 time, and now tell me their foreclosing.  Any suggestions??
