Home ownership is the pinnacle of the American Dream. Our current housing crisis illustrates the societal and institutional failure of protecting individuals trying to obtain this goal. Homeowners facing financial difficulty are frequently unable to negotiate with their mortgage servicers, and often times must file for bankruptcy in a desperate last attempt of maintaining their home. Due to mortgage servicing and the “slicing and dicing” of mortgages, homeowners often have no idea who actually owns and services their mortgage. Recent decisions in Nevada and New York, where federal judges declined to accept mortgage lenders’ proofs of claim, indicate an approaching tipping point. Several judges no longer embrace a lenient view when dealing with mortgage lenders and servicers. One Judge’s comment regarding the ongoing issues with mortgage holders and servicers filing inadequate proofs of claim sums up the issue quite nicely: “Is it too much to ask a consumer mortgage lender to provide the debtor with a clear and unambiguous explanation of the debtor’s default prior to foreclosing on the debtor’s house?”
Recently, our congress successfully passed new legislation, courageously recomposing century-old U.S. financial rules. It seems our buddies in D.C. have acquired great economic know-how, unseating 80 years of financial thought in a single, 24-hour session. The method of attack dealt with added regulation in derivative trading, and more specifically – Credit Default Swaps. Today, I will explain CDS’s, their influence on U.S. real estate, and how this new legislation will drastically affect everyone from the mighty real estate investor to the common renter. So, get involved and find out how this revolution to financial rules will affect both your personal and professional world
The trend is to leave all fingers pointed to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two government sponsored companies who repurchase and are in control of nearly 90% of the mortgages in our country. In essence, they are the driving forces behind mortgage lending in this county. However, to blame mortgage repurchasers is a very superficial approach, and shows a very superficial understanding of the economic factors influencing lending and banking. Here’s the true story, and this tale starts in September, 2001, focusing on the actions of the less-than-capitalist aspect of our supposedly capitalist economy.
