<b>Question: Any probs w/ Colorado State Business Group/CSBG/Core Realty? I&#8217;m sgl mom w/2 kids!! I WANT 2 KEEP OUR HOME!</b><br />
<i>
<p>Please let me know if you have! I need similar stories! I&#8217;m in the middle of trying to get SOMEONE to look into the fact that Im a victim of fraud under a rent-to-own scheme by Colorado State Business Group aka CSBG aka Core Realty. There&#8217;s alot of web info about rise in mortgage &#038; appraisal fraud &#038; articles on how all these various politicians intend to do something about it, meanwhile, I cant get ANYone to look into my particular case. I &#8220;bought&#8221; a house from CSBG (Chris Stiebler, Andy Klein, owners) which I was to rent from them for 1 year, paying 1% of THEIR purchase price (claims paid 140k but I found out they paid 112k) which was $1400/mo. (I was to get 1/2 back for down pymnt- DIDN&#8217;T).At the end of the year I was to buy the house from CSBG for 15% above THEIR purchase price OR the appraised value, WHICHEVER WAS LESS. The appraiser THEY hired appraised at 165k. I found out @ refi later that appraisal was inflated &#038; value @ the time was closer to 130K. I WAS SCREWED! HEEEEELLP!

<p><b>Answer:</b> Wow. That is so unfortunate. I would love to help you, but you say you want to keep your home. What is stopping you from keeping your home? I need more information. For future references, use your own appraiser or one that you both agree on...</p>

<b>Question: Does any know a lawyer who has the guts to go up against a mortgage company?</b><br />

<p>We believe the mortage company that we were dealing with has commited fraud.  They have falseified paperwork, increased the purchase price of the home to substanciate a very large closing cost, and backed out of a closed contract 6 days after closing, and left me, my husband, and my 3 month old baby out on the streets on 4th of July weekend.  All the hotels and cabins are all booked up through the weekend and some throughout July.

<p><b>Answer:</b> I would suggest that you consult a real estate attorney through the standard family legal plan at www.legalserviceplans.info . For your situation this is a very affordable service as you would get unlimited attorney consultations and documents review for only $16 per month. I've been consulting with the legal firm in the state of Texas and, so far, all my questions on legal matters from tax law to home ownership issues have been answered. If you feel that you would need more than the attorneys' consultations, you can hire the law firm to represent you at a 25% discount from their attorney rate. I hope this service would help you.</p>

<p><strong><br /></strong></p>
<p>Scams and frauds are prevalent in the contemporary world most especially in the real estate sector. Even though countless regulations have been legislated to provide financial assistance to potential home buyers, there are still an increasing percentage of people who experience financial constraints due to being victimized by scams such as mortgage frauds. Hence, it is with utmost care and caution that the federal government and other agencies are continuously reminding home buyers to have the right information in order to avoid falling prey to such opportunistic activities.</p>
<p><strong>How do mortgage frauds work?</strong></p>
<p>Here are some of the most common and simplest things to do to ensure your safety from scams and frauds associated with home loans.</p>
<ul>
<li>Attend courses on homeownership education. There are innumerable non-profit agencies which provide courses and programs to give counsel to potential home buyers before they make their home acquisition. You will definitely find helpful information in these courses which are also approved by the Housing and Urban Development department of the United States. You are not only given the chance to know how to purchase a home from beginning to completion. You are also informed of the different mortgage frauds and how to keep yourself away from such untoward situations. Invest wisely on real estate and start it with putting your time in proper use.</li>
<li>Shop around for the best lending company which can provide you with the most suitable mortgage program that best fits your financial and payment capacity. There is definitely an overwhelming number of lenders out there, hence be very careful in assessing the right one for you. You must also check the costs they impose on their borrowers as well as the different terms and conditions of their company. You have the right to compare each mortgage provider to come up with the best decision. If there are those who try to convince you to stick to only one lending company, then you better stay away from them because that is one sign of a steaming fraud.</li>
<li>See to it that you provide only accurate and complete information when filling up forms of your loan application. If you have forged or lied in your statements that is actually considered fraud and you are amenable to legal penalties. Thus, if you are going to provide information about your true financial and credit standings, your source of income and stability of your employment, make it very precise and without any error. Furthermore, never let anyone persuade you into borrowing an amount that is beyond your capacity to pay. This is a sure step towards losing your home and finding yourself in deep financial trouble.</li>
</ul>
<p>There are different signs and mechanics that scams on home loan are materialized and operated. The common victims are those who have apparently no sufficient education about such matters. For instance, potential home buyers who are making their home purchase for the very first time are primary candidates for this mischief. Seniors who also aim to make a good investment for their retirement benefits are often lured and fall in mortgage fraud traps. Thus, it is basically important that you know all possible information that are essential in securing a mortgage in a legit and hassle-free way.</p>

<p>Greed, ignorance, and good intentions are the various starting points for mortgage fraud. Whether a person is looking for a home to live in that&#8217;s nicer than he can legitimately afford, or he&#8217;s looking to flip a property to make a quick buck, mortgage fraud entails lying or hiding information from the bank to get more favorable loan terms. </p>
<p>There are two main types of mortgage fraud: &#8220;fraud for profit&#8221; and &#8220;fraud for house.&#8221; While &#8220;fraud for profit&#8221; schemes are fairly clear-cut in their dubiousness, &#8220;fraud for house&#8221; is often committed by people who aren&#8217;t aware of the seriousness of their actions. Some truly don&#8217;t think of what they&#8217;re doing as wrong. </p>
<p>&#8220;Fraud for house&#8221; is committed when a person falsifies her income or credit information in order to qualify for a home loan that she knows she couldn&#8217;t qualify for based on her true financial circumstances.</p>
<p>Oftentimes this type of fraud seems innocent&mdash;after all who&#8217;ll get hurt if I fudge the numbers just a little bit? However, as we&#8217;ve seen with the record number of foreclosures happening in recent years, too many people have gotten themselves involved with real estate deals that they simply couldn&#8217;t afford. </p>
<p>A single foreclosure can reduce the property values for everyone on the street, which can lead to entire neighbourhoods with slumping real estate values. Thus, one little lie on an application can have serious consequences: for the bank who never recoups their money, for the homeowners who lose their homes, and for the rest of the economy that takes a hit right alongside the real estate market. </p>
<p>&#8220;Fraud for house&#8221; cases commonly involve a buyer exaggerating their income on the application form, or in some cases, by getting financial aid from the seller without notifying the lender. This type of loan is known as a &#8220;silent second,&#8221; where the seller offers to help the buyer come up with the down payment, while keeping the bank in the dark. This is problematic because the bank gets a false picture of the buyer&#8217;s financial resources. The bank then authorizes a loan based on inaccurate information, and risks not ever getting their money back. </p>
<p>Another popular form of mortgage fraud involves what&#8217;s known as a &#8220;straw buyer&#8221; or a &#8220;nominee loan.&#8221; In this type of fraud, a buyer uses someone else&#8217;s credit and income information on their loan application. He may decide to pay a person to use their information, or he might steal somebody&#8217;s identity to get their data. </p>
<p>The person whose financial information is being used is known as the &#8220;straw buyer.&#8221; She is simply the buyer on paper, and has no intention of ever living in the home or of making the mortgage payments. </p>
<p>For the bank, this situation is very risky. There is a person that they don&#8217;t know that&#8217;s living in the home. They could have very low income or a poor credit history, which means that the bank&#8217;s chance of getting their payments is very slim. Fortunately, if the bank doesn&#8217;t receive its monthly payments, it&#8217;s within their rights to go after the straw buyer for remuneration.</p>
<p>Lenders check borrowers&#8217; financial information for a reason. They want to make sure that you get a home that you can actually afford. Buying beyond your means can result in a financial disaster for you, and major losses for the bank. While you may have your eye on an upscale property, if it&#8217;s beyond your means, it&#8217;s beyond your means. Lying to the bank to get the financing you need is illegal and unethical, no matter how sincere your intentions were.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Mortgage Fraud Mississippi</strong></p>
<p>Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke has confirmed the Housing Predictor forecast that more than 2 million homes will be foreclosed as a result of the sub prime lending crisis. </p>
<p>In a hearing before the Congressional House Financial Services Committee in Washington D.C., Bernanke essentially confirmed the Housing Predictor forecast issued in early June, saying more foreclosures will occur as a result of fall out from the sub prime debacle.</p>
<p>However, he differed with one congressional committee member&#8217;s estimates that 1.5 million foreclosures would occur alone in 2007. Bernanke conceded that the rate of foreclosures caused by the nation&#8217;s sub prime crisis would worsen in 2008 and 2009 without citing any figures, but agreed the figure would go into the millions.</p>
<p>Bernanke made his comments in semi-annual testimony before a congressional committee, which is looking into ways to assist the nation&#8217;s lending economy to help resolve the sub prime crisis. The Chief Fed Chairman deplored &#8220;abusive lending practices and outright fraud&#8221; in the wake of near record foreclosures caused by the sub prime crisis. </p>
<p>The Housing Predictor forecast was based on an analysis of the nation&#8217;s largest metropolitan real estate markets conducted over a one month period by a team of researchers and journalists. Housing Predictor forecasts more than 250 local housing markets in all 50 U.S. states.</p>
<p>The web site is regularly consulted by many of the nation&#8217;s foremost Wall Street investment houses, mortgage and real estate companies, and consumers for its forecasts, which are updated regularly as local market conditions demand.Foreclosures are at near record levels in Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Colorado. Other states that are experiencing the highest number of foreclosures include California, Alabama, Indiana and Mississippi. </p>
<p>However, the fall out from the sub prime meltdown is not extending into all of the nation&#8217;s housing markets on a widespread scale.  Foreclosures are occurring more commonly in lower middle class and poorer neighborhoods. Many housing markets, including vacation and second home markets and higher priced areas are immune from the fall out of foreclosures.</p>
<p>Eighteen states real estate markets are appreciating and an additional 10 states housing markets are showing signs of stabilizing. Many of the foreclosures are occurring as a result of increases in adjustable rate mortgages, and unethical lending practices on the part of some mortgage borrowers and lenders.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Mortgage Fraud Prosecutions</strong></p>
<p>Two bills designed to address some of the problems resulting from the economic crisis have been signed by President Obama. The first deals with mortgage fraud and the other with helping families who are involved in a foreclosure situation save their homes.</p>
<p>Look out rip-off artists, enforcers of the new mortgage fraud bill means serious business. Almost half a billion federal dollars has been authorized to spend on targeting charges of mortgage fraud. Agencies the likes of the Secret Service, U.S. Postal Service and HUD are all getting additional funding to increase their security measures. </p>
<p>The Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act now sanctions the government to go after companies or individuals currently out of reach. Currently, an incidence of mortgage fraud can result in investigation, prosecution, civil penalties and prison time at a federal level, opposed to the prior gentler state penalties previously enforced. This new Act applies to all types of mortgage fraud, no matter how minor the offence. </p>
<p>In the past, these schemes defrauded home owners, realtors, lenders and builders out of billions of dollars each year. The FBI intends to send a message that mortgage fraud will not be tolerated and it is expected that offenders will receive stiff penalties in order to set an example to others.</p>
<p>The second bill, simply entitled, &#8220;Helping Families Save Their Homes Act,&#8221; is intended to simplify the process for homeowners to receive foreclosure financing and modifications to existing loans. It also makes it easier for the lender to offer these types of options and hopefully prevent an impending foreclosure. </p>
<p>The new law also offers protection for renters who find themselves living in a home whose owners are facing foreclosure. Under the old rules, tenants would have to move immediately following foreclosure, now they have the option to continue renting for a term negotiated with the lender. This makes sense on so many levels. Now hundreds of families who otherwise would have found themselves on the street, still have homes. Lenders no longer have to deal with the problems associated with the upkeep of an empty home. Hopefully this will reduce occurrences of complete neighborhoods of foreclosed houses sitting vacant and facing ill repair and vandalism. In many cases, reliable tenants are happy to stay on and maintain the property. </p>
<p>The law provides additional homeless relief, makes better use of local organizations in this role, and allows them more latitude when allocating federal funds for assistance.</p>
<p>Part of the reason that mortgage fraud became so widespread was attributed to the lack of a single watchdog affiliation to oversee the the sketchy subprime loan offerings, underwriting and lending schemes. Instead there were a number of small agencies, each only seeing part of the problem, but no single unit had the power to actually deal with the issue as a whole. Currently, the Obama administration has a plan in the works to establish a single federal agency designed to watch over everyone involved; from the small brokers to the major lenders.</p>

<img style="margin-right:20px" src="http://upside-down-mortgage.com/wp-content/uploads/Mortgage Fraud For Housing.jpg" alt="Mortgage Fraud For Housing" title="Mortgage Fraud For Housing" border="0" align="left" /></p>
<p>Identity theft professionals are becoming greedier and more proficient at their &#8220;game.&#8221; Identity theft is no longer limited to unpaid credit cards, small credit loans, but with the booming real estate market there is fast cash there for the conniving individual to make.</p>
<p>Mortgage fraud through identity theft is the second most common mortgage fraud scheme. The FTC reported in 2004 that $429 million dollars in damages for home mortgage fraud hoaxed and approximately $1.1 million dollars lost on commercial loans.</p>
<p>Mortgage fraud through identity theft occurs in several different ways. First a person may apply for a loan for a new home or for a home equity loan using your personal and financial information. The home equity loan is most often on the house that you are residing in, thus making this the easiest hoax to commit. Knowledge of an individual&#8217;s date of birth, social security number, as well as address makes it easy for victimization to occur.</p>
<p>Secondly, mortgage fraud may occur in a fake sale of your home. One thief will assume your identity and &#8220;sell&#8221; the property to another thief. With mortgage loan money in hand, both thieves get away and no real sale occurs. However, there have been instances where the homeowner&#8217;s identity was stolen and the home was sold to a legitimate buyer and the thief gets away with the money, the buyers have no new home and the original homeowner is left with the messy business of re-establishing his identity and his credit.</p>
<p>In most cases, the banks are the ones most damaged by these types of schemes. A legitimate homeowner did not take out the loan, so may not be held liable, but they don&#8217;t get off with out any damage at all. Many hours and much money may be required to correct the credit problems that are a result of identity theft, particularly when the theft results in large sums of money being stolen. Then there is the additional effort to protect their future credit and personal information.</p>
<p>Those most likely to be victims of mortgage fraud are the elderly, established homeowners, and those who have a great deal of equity in their homes. Equity information is readily available through an online title search and the use of tracking property values in the area.</p>
<p>Homeowners need to do the following to protect their homes and their credit.</p>
<p>- Monitor your credit report, receive regular updates, and stay informed;</p>
<p>- Immediately contact any lenders that provide information on your credit report when you discover pieces of information that are mistakes of fact or that you don&#8217;t know or recognize;</p>
<p>- Read your social security benefits statement when it comes in the mail to determine if anyone has already claimed your benefits.</p>
<p>- Be wary of communications regarding your home, real estate, personal or mortgage information including special &#8220;offers&#8221; to help you with your mortgage or interest rate.</p>
<p>- You may need to educate your parents or other elderly individuals with their credit protection plans.</p>
<p>- Install an anti virus and spyware software system on your computer to protect your personal and financial information.</p>
<p>Early detection and reporting of mortgage fraud schemes is important. With mortgage fraud, consumers may lose their property, their savings, and their credit rating. Secondly, lenders are affected by the loss of money, security, and assets in their company, not to mention the lack of trust resulting from these types of rackets.</p>
<p>If a victim of this type of crime, it should be reported to The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fbi.gov/">http://www.fbi.gov/</a> (202) 324-3000 &#8211; National FBI Financial Institution Fraud Unit. However, there are a possible 18 other government agencies, banking, consumer, and fraud reporting agencies as well as other consumer resources available to consumers depending on the type and method of mortgage fraud that occurred. For a complete list of resources, visit Mortgage News Daily <a target="_blank" href="http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/Mortgage_Fraud/National_Resources.asp">http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/Mortgage_Fraud/National_Resources.asp</a></p>
<p>Consumers can try to stop identity theft before it happens by being forewarned and vigilant. If you are a victim of identity theft, in particular mortgage fraud you will have the information you need to correctly and quickly report the theft and take the steps necessary to begin to repair your credit.</p>

Does anyone know of a lawsuit that has gone in favor of the homeowner in this circumstance? I believe the broker shoud be held responsible, as they are the ones that hired the appraiser, who, by the way, is not allowed to renew his license due to another case of fraud.<br />
appraisal saying home is worth 185 thousand, new appraisal? 95 thousand, sorry I know the market is bad, but my house did not depreciate 90 thousand dollars., the comparable photos do not match the addresses, my home is 100 yrs old, the comparables say they are the same age, when upon my investigation, the homes are actually brand new.  I signed these papers believing I had 50 thousand in equity, when in reality, I have $0.

<p><b>Answer:</b> Sue everybody in this order:  The Appraisal company, the appraiser themselves, the Broker, and the Mortgage company.  Go to your state's Attorney General's office and file a complaint for everyone of these entities.  There appears to be so much fraud in your case that you need to pursue this.</p>
<p>Depending on your area, the value of your home may have dipped, even significantly, but not 90 k...</p>
<p>Good Luck...</p>

<p>I had a very bad experience with the mortgage lender and realtor.  I believe I got screwed on my house. I&#8217;m young, and they knew it. I want to post my story but its too long. Anyways, this has been eating me up for so long, and now i&#8217;m ready to take action. Does anybody know of any resources where I can look up illegal/legal lender/realtor practices in TEXAS.  I don&#8217;t need the code of ethics. I need solid law. I&#8217;m about to lose my house and this gave me enough courage to move forward. I&#8217;ve googled and looked at so many places and can&#8217;t find anything.  Please help.  I have no money or time for legal consultation right now. I&#8217;m very depressed. I work 2 ft jobs, have a baby, and cant pay my bills anymore.  Please help me!!! <img src='http://upside-down-mortgage.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />

<p><b>Answer:</b> There is a huge difference between fraud being committed by a Lender or Realtor and a Buyer who didn't have a clue as to what they were doing getting in way over his or her head.  </p>
<p>The fact that you are young has nothing to do with anything.  There are plenty of young people who research what they are doing before they do it so that they don't enter into a deal that isn't in their best interests.</p>
<p>The Texas AG's Office has a Mortgage Fraud Task Force that you can contact if it indeed was fraud.  </p>
<p>Here is a link to the Texas Office of The Consumer Credit Commissioner that lists what is considered predatory lending practice in Texas, along with the Texas Code that addresses the issue:</p>
<p>http://www.occc.state.tx.us/pages/agency/strat05/pred.html</p>
<p>I hope you work things out.  Good Luck.</p>

<b>Question: Is this a mortgage Fraud?</b><br />
<i>
<p>I reside in FL, I purchased a house about a year ago in November, before I got the house I got an estimate on my taxes and it was used to create my good faith estimate.<br />
During the closing, I noticed that my PMI has increased but the total payment for the mortgage was less than the good faith estimate, I asked my loan officer about that and she explained something about a lower percentage which led to higher PMI but my overall mortgage was about the same so I believed her.<br />
A year later I discovered there was shortage in my escrow account by $2000 which increased my monthly payment by $200 because the taxes they used was less than the amount on my good faith estimate.<br />
I confronted the lender, who sent me to the loan officer and they blamed the title agency, and the title agency said they entered the value given to them by the loan officer.<br />
At this point, I don’t know if I should get an attorney or report this as a fraud. I really don’t know what to do to resolve this issue.

<p><b>Answer:</b> I don't beleive the loan officer is to blame.  The title company is the one that should be responsible (good luck with that.)  The title company will and should not take anything for granted they are the one who has the properties taxation history not he loan officer.  I don't think you have a case. Yes, there was and error in the tax amount and it was discovered and charged to you. Unfortunately it was discovered after you purchased the home and you cannot renegotiate your payment without refinancing the whole loan.  But I definately would speak to your title reps. manager at the title company and make a formal complaint and also ask for the preliminary title report ( aka prelims) and check out what is documented on the report and you should get your answer.</p>

<p>Hoax Emails has become very common sight in the email Inbox these days since E-mail has become an essential mode of communication in the modern world. Unfortunately, that means it&#8217;s also one of the most common routes for virus infection and fraud. Below are some of the most common email frauds that are committed using this method.</p>
<p>Phishing Scams</p>
<p>&#8220;Phishing&#8221; is a high-tech scam that uses spam or Pop-up ad&#8217;s messages to deceive you into disclosing your credit card numbers, bank account information, Social Security number, passwords, or any other kind of confidential personal information. Identity theft is the goal of this Hoax emails scam.</p>
<p>The phisher sends you a fraudulent email that is designed to look like it was sent from a reputable company. The email directs you to a website that looks like it belongs to the reputable company, but is actually a spoof committing email fraud. You are asked to &#8220;update&#8221; your information here, or you get an email says you account has been locked or hacked then it tells you to click on the link to correct this problem and if you do, all that personal information goes straight to the phisher that uses this information for identity theft purposes such as making withdrawals from your bank and credit card accounts, ordering new credit cards which they promptly max out, etc.</p>
<p>Some of the most recent phishing attacks have spoofed the email and websites of well known companies, including eBay, Paypal, Yahoo, Pfizer, Bank of America, Microsoft among others.</p>
<p>Work-At-Home Scams:</p>
<p>These are some of the more tempting spam and hoax emails scams. They offer those who need to make extra money the opportunity to do so, and invariably the email will state: &#8220;no experience necessary.&#8221; The scammer often claims to have &#8220;inside information,&#8221; and tries to bait you with the lure of quick money for next to no effort. More often than not, you are asked to pay anywhere from $35 to several hundred dollars to purchase the kits or materials that will not earn you a dime. There are other types of this email fraud that offer other types of employment and easy money but are the same type of scam.</p>
<p>Some examples of this type of scams offer opportunities involving handicrafts, stuffing envelopes or medical billing on your home PC. If you fall for this email fraud and pay the fees for the handicraft or envelop-stuffing &#8220;kit,&#8221; and complete the assembly of the crafts as instructed, you will be informed that your work is of poor quality and not worth paying for.</p>
<p>If you sign up for the medical billing &#8220;opportunity,&#8221; you will be asked to purchase a list of doctors. These doctors are either fictional or do not want or need your services and never did. There are other hoax emails that offer similar opportunities.</p>
<p>Credit Repair Scams:</p>
<p>These scams tell promise to erase real and usually correct negative information that has been added to your credit report, the send you hoax emails telling you can qualify for loans, mortgages, unsecured credit cards, etc. This email fraud has become very popular with the current issues that many people are currently suffering from these days from bad credit.</p>
<p>These services rarely deliver on their promise, and more often than not, will create a great many more problems in the long run. They have even been known to suggest that you commit fraud e.g. falsifying your social security number.</p>
<p>Guaranteed loans on easy terms:</p>
<p>Some hoax email scams offer guaranteed, unsecured credit, such as a home-equity loans that does not require equity in your home, or credit cards regardless of your credit history. This email fraud is also very popular due to same people with credit issues.</p>
<p>This offer of credit is often extended by an off-shore bank.</p>
<p>This email fraud scam is often executed in conjunction with a pyramid scheme, which will encourage you to make earn money by signing up friends and family to participate in the scheme.</p>
<p>The promised offer of a home equity loans turns out to be a useless list of lenders who will turn you down if you don&#8217;t meet their qualifications. The promised credit cards never come through, and the pyramid money-making schemes invariably collapse.</p>
<p>Below are some of the other common hoax emails that you will see. The key tipoff&acute;s can be gleaned from the subject line or the content. Rather than using your personal name, they may say &#8216;Dear valued customer&#8217;. But finding some variant of your name isn&#8217;t difficult these days. Beware, in either case.</p>
<p>*Supposedly free giveaways in exchange for forwarding emails or possibly bogus virus alerts or false appeals to help sick children even pointless petitions that lead nowhere and accomplish nothing and dire, and completely fictional, warnings about products, companies, government policies or coming events.</p>
<p>There is no easy way to avoid these email fraud messages there is specialized software that can detect hoax emails along with phishing, though it hasn&#8217;t reached maturity &#8211; it often identifies legitimate e-mail as fraud. Always treat requests for passwords or credit card numbers with suspicion. Remember, no legitimate financial institution will ask you to verify your password or sensitive data in an e-mail.</p>
<p>The good news is that, with a little bit of foreknowledge, Hoax emails are easy to detect as email fraud. Hidden within the colorful prose of your average email often lurk telling indicators of the email&#8217;s veracity.</p>

<p>It was invented as &#8220;the most astonishing piece of sleight of hand ever been.&#8221; The creation of money has been privatized by the Congress by a private banking cartel pulled itself. Most people think money comes from the Fiat issued by the government, but that&#8217;s not the case. With the exception of coins, only about one-thousandth of the total U.S. money supply, which is composed, all our money, now created by banks. Federal Reserve Notes (dollar bills) are provided by the Federal Reserve, a private banking issuedCompanies, and also gave the government.1 Federal Reserve notes and coins make up less than 3 percent of the money supply. The other 97 percent is created by commercial banks as loans.2</p>
<p>Do not believe banks create the money they borrow? Neither the jury in a landmark Minnesota case, until they heard the evidence. First National <strong>Bank</strong> of Montgomery vs. Daly (1969) was a courtroom drama worthy of a film script.3 Defendant Jerome Daly, against the <strong><a href="http://www.bankcreditsite.com">bank</a></strong> &#8217;sForeclosure on the $ 14,000 home mortgage loans on the ground that there was no consideration for the loan. &#8220;Examination&#8221; ( &#8220;the thing exchanged&#8221;) is an essential part of a contract. Daly, a lawyer who argued himself that the <strong>bank</strong> had put any real money for his loan. The court proceedings were taken by Associate Justice Bill Drexler, whose main role, he said, the order was kept in a highly charged courtroom where the attorneys were threatening a fist fight.Drexler had not given much credence to the theory of defense, until Mr. Morgan, the <strong><a href="http://www.bankcreditsite.com">bank</a>&#8217;s</strong> president, to the stand. To everyone&#8217;s surprise, Morgan was that the <strong>Bank</strong> regularly prepares grabbed money &#8220;out of thin air&#8221; for its loans, and this was standard banking practice. &#8220;It sounds like fraud to me,&#8221; intones, Bureau of Justice Martin Mahoney nodded at the jurors. In his memorandum Court Justice Mahoney stated:</p>
<p>&#8220;The applicant acknowledged that they, in combination with theFederal Reserve <strong>Bank</strong> of Minneapolis. . . has to create the entire $ 14,000.00 in money and <strong>credit</strong> on their own books by bookkeeping entry. That this was the reasoning used to the touch, 8 To assist in May 1964 and the mortgage on the same day. The <strong>monetary and</strong> credit policy first arose when they created it. Mr Morgan acknowledged that the United States were no statutes, giving it the right to do so. The legal review must exist and be tenderedSupport of the note. &#8220;</p>

<p>&Acirc;&middot; Falling property prices and the rising number of foreclosures are key concerns in real estate. Mortgage &acirc;&#8364;&#8220;holders and builders are likely to be the focus of a wide range of initiatives. In this direction, Mr. Obama has already proposed a mortgage tax credit for home buyers who don&acirc;&#8364;&#8482;t itemize deductions. We still imagine more aggressive relief is likely to be sought.</p>
<p>&Acirc;&middot; In an interview during his eventful presidential campaign, Mr. Obama had mentioned measures to ease mortgage crisis. He has called for the creation of a $10 billion foreclosure prevention fund that will work in tandem with state, local and community. This is to help households facing foreclosure to renegotiate with lenders or put their house on the market. In the long term, the Stop Fraud Act would create criminal penalties for mortgage professionals found guilty of fraud. This would increase funding for federal and state enforcement of antifraud programs.</p>
<p>&Acirc;&middot; Mr. Obama also wishes to create a simplified, standardized metric for calculating the costs of a home mortgage that would be similar to the annual percentage rate used by the banks to identify effective interest rate that a borrower pays for a loan.</p>
<p>&Acirc;&middot; He also proposes changes in the transport facility to needy neighborhoods. In this regard, federal Jobs Access and Reverse Commute program are to be doubled so as to ensure that additional federal public transportation dollars flow to the highest-need communities.</p>
<p>&Acirc;&middot; Mr. Obama has also expressed a goal of making all new buildings carbon-free by 2030. This law has already made its first move by allowing a high tax credit for users of &acirc;&#8364;&#339;energy-efficient&acirc;&#8364; sources of energy like solar or wind energy. In future, Obama has proposed introduction of competitive grant program to recognize states and localities that take steps to implement new building codes that prioritize energy efficiency.</p>
<p>&Acirc;&middot; He has also proposed certain tax reforms such as simplifying tax codes that would help general public.</p>
<p>With the implementation of these measures, our anxiety brewed from today&acirc;&#8364;&#8482;s real estate market is sure to see some signs of ease in the near future.</p>

<p>Now days there is a thing so rampant even the lending institutions are guilty of it. Ready any newspaper almost and you will read of banks going broke and bankers going to jail for committing a little thing called Fraud. </p>
<p>Fraud against who? You, the trusting borrower who believed there are laws to protect you from being taken advantage of. There are, if you can find them and you know someone is defrauding in you. And then you need to prove it. </p>
<p>The records speaks for it self. Banks cannot be trusted. So here are a few ideas to get you to thinking about what may be going on in your own mortgage situation and an angle you may be able to pursue to stop foreclosure on your home.</p>
<p>Remember, fraud vitiates the most solemn of agreements.</p>
<p>Will any of these possibilities fall into the area of fraud? Will any of them help you? You be the judge.</p>
<p>For a contract to be changed it takes the agreement of all parties concerned. That includes the borrower. If the contract has been sold, did the borrower agree to the change of a new mortgagee? If he did not, there may be no contract. Can the contract be reassigned without the borrower&#8217;s agreement? Therefore, the new contract holder may not have authority or standing to initiate a bank foreclose.</p>
<p>Is it legal for one bank to sell a note, then collect the payments and pass it on? Are they committing a fraud by collecing on a debt already paid?</p>
<p>Is it legal for banks to lend debt or credit? Where in all the laws of this land has it been decreed debt can be loaned? Is not credit debt? Credit is used as a term of being able to borrow. But it is also used as term of debt. When a loan is made what is loaned? Debt is loaned. Your credit (debt) limit is&#8230; Nothing of intrinsic value has changed hands in this kind of loan process. </p>
<p>Money was created by moving one set of figures from one column to another. Even if they hand the borrower a stack of bills with the labels of Federal Reserve Note printed on the top of each one, the borrower has only received a pile of debt. Note equals debt.</p>
<p>If you are facing the mortgage foreclosure process arm yourself with all the knowledge you can then take action. </p>

<p><b>Answer:</b> No, I don't pity them.  I believe that when they made the decision to adopt someone else's infant, they were saying that they  were better off financially, emotionally, physically and in every way than the single mother whose child they desired.  Because they deemed themselves better than Nature to decide this, they will be held to the higher standard they claimed for themselves  They are not the same as a natural family, because they claimed to be better than the natural family Nature intended that infant to be born to.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Mortgage Fraud Practice Note</strong></p>
<p>From: New York attorney Gary E. Rosenberg (personal injury and accident attorney and lawyer; serving Brooklyn Queens Bronx; Queens Injury Lawyer)</p>
<p>In Re: Bertram Brown</p>
<p>Please pay attention to this timeline:</p>
<p>December 15, 1954 &#8211; Bertram Brown is admitted to the practice of law in the State of New York.</p>
<p>On May 5, 2004 &#8211; a complaint was made by Lucia Santiago that Bertram Brown had represented the Santiago family in the sale of real property in Richmond Hill that netted proceeds of $61,498.35. Bertram Brown allegedly put the money into his personal bank account and spent some.</p>
<p>July 21, 2004 &#8211; a complaint was made that Bertram Brown took $74,000 of client funds, which he denies. A judge makes this complaint against him. Allegedly he sold a property for an estate (of a dead person) and kept the money from the sale, depositing it into his personal bank account, which money was supposed to go to the deceased&#8217;s heirs.</p>
<p>December 8, 2004 &#8211; a complaint was made by Janice Ryan who hired Bertram Brown to represent her in a foreclosure proceeding and to get her mortgage with Chase Manhattan Bank reinstated. The mortgage was $85,000 in arrears at that time. In order to facilitate the reinstatement, Ryan entrusted Bertram Brown with $73,069.00. After the bank rejected the application for reinstatement of the mortgage, Bertram Brown advised Ryan to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy protection. Bertram Brown also suggested he retain the money to hide it for the duration of the bankruptcy proceedings (which is bankruptcy fraud). Once Ryan demanded the return of the funds, however, Bertram Brown repaid only $7,500.00, and only after repeated demands. The checks totaling the $7,500.00 were drawn from Bertram Brown&#8217;s private account.</p>
<p>September 27, 2005 &#8211; Bertram Brown is immediately suspended from the practice of law, even before the charges against him are finally decided. This is to protect the public.</p>
<p>Further proceedings are held.</p>
<p>The Court notes:</p>
<p>&#8220;This Court&#8217;s order of suspension was entered on September 27, 2005, and was served via overnight mail on [Bertram Brown's] then counsel in the afternoon of September 28th. On September 30th, [Bertram Brown] appeared before New York Civil Court Judge Jeffrey Oing, on behalf of his client Third Avenue Wireless, Inc. According to an affidavit from [Bertram Brown's] adversary, [Bertram Brown] appeared that day and made an application for an adjournment so that he could prepare and submit opposition papers to a motion, and entered into a stipulation adjourning the motion for that purpose.</p>
<p>On October 3, 2005, the adversary telephoned [Bertram Brown] asking him if he was suspended. [Bertram Brown] initially did not admit to it, indicating that the Committee was only looking into allegations, but when pressed, finally admitted he was indeed suspended. On or about October 17, 2005, [Bertram Brown] served the Committee with his affidavit of compliance with the order of suspension as required by 22 NYCRR 603.14(a)(I), swearing therein that he had fully complied with the provisions of the suspension order and the rules.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, two days later, on October 19, 2005, [Bertram Brown] again appeared in court on behalf of a client, Virginia Khublall, this time before Queens Supreme Court Justice Allan B. Weiss. Prior to the call of the calender, [Bertram Brown] engaged in negotiations with his opponent. [Bertram Brown] then appeared on behalf of the plaintiff never alerting the court or his adversary to the fact that he was interimly suspended. While [Bertram Brown] eventually advised opposing counsel that he had to be substituted because of a disciplinary &#8220;problem&#8221;, he did not do so until Friday, October 21, during a settlement discussion. To date, [Bertram Brown] has never advised counsel that he has been suspended.&#8221;</p>
<p>October 25, 2005 &#8211; Bertram Brown is questioned under oath anjd denies that he practiced law</p>
<p>in the Khublall matter because he had informed his client that he had been suspended before the court appearance and only appeared in court to obtain an adjournment.</p>
<p>November 2, 2005 &#8211; a complaint was made by Andrea Conyers alleging that Bertram Brown, among other things, had been holding a real estate buyer&#8217;s down payment in the amount of $30,000 since November 2004. Bertram Brown claims the money is preserved intact and had been returned ott he buyer&#8217;s attorneys, but his bank records reflect that from October 14 through November 7, 2005 (after the effective date of his suspension), he made six withdrawals to himself totaling $24,000, causing the balance in his account to fall below the amount required to be maintained on behalf of that third-party buyer.</p>
<p>April 13, 2006 &#8211; Bertram Brown is disbarred (loses his law license) for good.</p>
<p>You would think this would be the end of this matter, but it&#8217;s not.</p>
<p>January 2007 &#8211; Bertram Brown is caught representing a client in The Bronx while using the name and credentials of a former associate, then again in Queens in September using the same alias. Both times, he is punished only with probation.</p>
<p>January 2009 &#8211; Bertram Brown, 81 years-old, surrenders to Brooklyn prosecutors for allegedly using a phony name to represent a client in a housing-court case. He was caught representing a Brooklyn landlord in a suit brought against him by a tenant. He faces mandatory jail time if he&#8217;s convicted of another felony.</p>
<p>Comment: Does anyone think to check if he&#8217;s mentally competent?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Mortgage Fraud Consequences</strong></p>
<p>Recently I received a call from a real estate investment club member that asked this question &#8211; &#8220;I am responsible for a mortgage that is being paid by the homeowner but I am afraid he will be stopping the payments shortly, what should I do?&#8221;  I will call him &#8220;Sam&#8221; but it is not his real name.</p>
<p>I asked Sam about the property and he said the mortgage was for $300,000 but the current market value was only $230,000.  As we discussed the problem further, it became apparent that Sam was not on the deed of the property but was personally responsible for the entire mortgage!  </p>
<p>A close personal friend of Sam had asked him to take the mortgage out in his name and his friend would pay Sam $3,000 for use of his credit.  While Sam&#8217;s friend didn&#8217;t intend to defraud Sam, this scam of using another person&#8217;s credit to buy a property is called using a &#8220;Straw Buyer&#8221; to purchase a property.   It is one of the most common types of mortgage scams and has resulted in thousands of people spending tens-of-thousands of years in jail and paying millions of dollars in fines.</p>
<p>Unwittingly, Sam committed mortgage fraud when applying for the mortgage because the lender has a questionnaire that asked if it would be Sam&#8217;s primary residence along with other financial questions that Sam undoubtedly falsified &#8211; or the mortgage broker did to have Sam qualify for the loan.  Sam, like many unsuspecting individuals are innocent people with good credit, looking to make some money.  However, the law looks at them as being fully involved because they knowingly took money to get the loan and committed fraud doing it.  This potential fraudulent involvement by Sam is what the scam artists use to scare Sam from going to the Police &#8211; &#8220;tell on us and you are part of the problem&#8221;.  Unfortunately, Sam is part of the problem but he needs to &#8220;roll-over&#8221; first with the Police to get lenient treatment.</p>
<p>Most often, in this form of fraud, the victim (Sam) is induced by being offered $10,000 to $20,000 to use his credit and a percentage (10% &#8211; 50%) of the profits when the property is sold.  In addition, the unsuspecting individuals who use their credit, would be told that the property will be rented and the rent payments will pay the mortgage payments for which they are responsible.  Unfortunately, they usually find out when they go to buy a high ticket item like a car and learn that their FICO credit score is in the 400&#8217;s instead of the 700&#8217;s!</p>
<p>The scam artists usually purchase the property at one price (i.e. $200,000) and with the help of an unscrupulous mortgage broker and appraiser, resell this property to Sam for a $100,000 INSTANT profit to themselves!  Unfortunately, no mortgage payments are made and the scammers go ahead and rent the property and keep the rent until the property is foreclosed and the tenants evicted by the Sheriff.</p>
<p>Hopefully this isn&#8217;t going to happen to Sam, but if his &#8220;buddy&#8221; were to sell the property, there would be a $70,000 &#8211; $90,000 loss on the property after the mortgage is paid off.  The only way to sell it is by doing a short sale, but for the lender to allow a short sale, the mortgagor (Sam) must be in foreclosure.</p>
<p>So the &#8220;players&#8221; in this mess are Sam, who participated without realizing the potential legal consequences and the long-term damage to his credit, Sam&#8217;s friend who has little or no financial loss or credit risk at stake and can walk away at any time, and the mortgage broker who must have had to participate in this fraud to the lender.  The mortgage broker probably believes that he is immune to prosecution because he just took the application, but the problem is that he is a co-conspirator who told Sam how to &#8220;properly&#8221; fill out the loan application.</p>
<p>The moral of this story is not to allow anyone to induce you to use your credit to purchase a property &#8211; even if they say they will put it in your name.  I have seen this guise used and the Sam&#8217;s knowingly signed a Quit Claim Deed at the signing of the mortgage documents to &#8220;facilitate the sale&#8221; for the scammers.  If you are approached by anyone asking you to &#8220;loan your credit&#8221; for a mortgage on a property, see an attorney to make certain you have representation and the deal is not a scam.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Mortgage Fraud Detection And Prevention</strong></p>
<p>If you are applying for a credit card, mortgage, car or personal loan, you should be familiar with the information included in your credit report. You are issued a number, known as a FICO score, which is calculated based on your previous payment history, number of debts with a balance, recent credit inquiries, and balance to available credit ratio.</p>
<p>Many consumers are aware that they can obtain a credit report, for a fee, from the three major credit reporting agencies. These include TransUnion, Experian and Equifax and they provide your credit report to loan officers, credit card companies, financial institutions and anyone whom you give permission to obtain a copy of your credit file. While many consumers know that credit reports can be obtained for a fee, many do not know that everyone is entitled to a free copy of their credit report from each of the 3 credit bureaus each year. Once every 12 months, you can visit <a target="_blank" href="http://www.AnnualCreditReport.com">http://www.AnnualCreditReport.com</a> and gain instant online access to your free credit report. </p>
<p>When looking at a copy of your credit report, you will be able to view payment histories as submitted by each of your creditors, current and previous addresses along with any information included on public record. This may include civil judgments, bankruptcy or foreclosures, etc. If any of the information contained in your credit file is incorrect, you have the right to dispute that information directly with the credit bureau. At the time a dispute is submitted, the credit reporting agency will investigate and correct any errors that are made.</p>
<p>Additionally, if you are turned down for credit at any time, the creditor must provide you with a written reason for the decline. At that time, you may request a free copy of your credit report from the agency that provided the information to the creditor. By sending a copy of the denial letter to the credit reporting agency, they are then required to provide you with a copy of their entire file relating to you and your credit history.</p>
<p>It is recommended that consumers check their credit file every 6 months to ensure that information is accurate and to prevent or detect identity theft. If you notice an invalid address or credit line that you never applied for, this is an indication of possible identity theft and should be dealt with immediately by calling the credit bureau and having a fraud alert placed on your file. An informed consumer is a happy one.</p>
