Cow Bat Man : keep Your Seat Belt on: Foreclosures will increase at 20 percent per year until: housing prices begin to stabilize, banks
start writing down bad loans and offer meaningful mortgage
modifications with principal reduction, and the unemployment picture
improves. Strategic defaults remains the big issue. Problem could fester for years!

Some economists contend that the Obama administration’s $75 billion program to prevent foreclosures has done more harm than good.

As a foreclosure defense and real estate attorney at South Florida’s Oppenheim Law, I witnessed striking developments in the Florida real estate and legal landscape throughout this year. As 2009 comes to a close, the blogger in me decided to reflect on a year that we’l...l never forget. In 2009, the United States experienced presidential history and remarkable scandals and unbelievable Ponzi schemes costing in the billions but Oppenheim Law believes 2009...

It was 4:30 p.m. on Thanksgiving eve at my office, and I was enjoying a moment of quiet phones as I cleared my desk and my mind. The one call that did come was from The Wall Street Journal Real Estate reporter James (Bob) R. Hagarty. He was working on a story about h...omeowners who are creating their own bailouts, the coined name “strategic defaults.” Bob asked my thoughts on what...

Oppenheim Law Guess the President is a little naive to think that just because he authorized the taxpayers lending the banks a few hundred billion dollars that the banks would not use that money to constantly oppose his economic initiatives. I know Mr. President you told Oprah you deserve a B+ but where I come from, your handling of... the foreclosure crisis gets you a Gentlemen's C! And the irony is that YOU know I am right! http://bit.ly/864Lqh

Bank CEOs, acknowledging a disconnect between their expressions of support for re-regulating financial markets and the work of their lobbyists to weaken new rules, pledged during a meeting with Obama to intervene on behalf of the legislation.
Oppenheim Law Once again I am disappointed that Congress rejected principal reduction or Cram Down for homeowners in bankruptcy. One has to question whether this was truly an Obama Admin priority. Looks like banks once again used tax payer bail out money to lobby against the people. http://bit.ly/8QjSah

In a win for the banking industry, the U.S. House of Representatives voted on Friday to reject a measure that would have allowed bankruptcy judges to change the terms of mortgages for distressed homeowners.

WSJ reporter, James Hagerty, arguably one of the best reporters covering the real estate crisis and with whom I speak with from time-to time wrote a great article this morning concerning professional investors who are going to auction, fixing up the houses and then flip...ping them for a profit.

If at first you don't succeed try... try again:
Obama Admin keeps trying to figure out how to solve the mortgage foreclosure
crisis. Maybe if they just used some of the $54 Bill that B oF A returned
to the Treasury to conduct TRUE and MEANINGFUL modifications instead of
allowing the bank to keep refusing most mods and fore...closing on
millions of homes, the problem could resolve itself. http://bit.ly/6JzTt2
bit.ly
The Treasury’s mortgage-modification program relies on interest-rate reductions rather than principal cuts, which could cause a problem.
Oppenheim Law Had another summary judgment for foreclosure derailed yesterday when the bank's attorney claimed the bank "lost the note" yet walked into the hearing with it. Well it was a telephonic hearing and thus the judge told the bank: foul ball; dismiss the lost note count; and send your opposing counsel (me) a copy of the orig...inal note well before the next hearing.
