Changing Credit Scorecard Groupings could mean surprise to your credit score.
Scorecard groupings are not talked about nearly enough so I thought I would take a moment to explain the because they can cause unexpected credit score changes. A scorecard is a category that the consumer is classified into for determining your credit score. It is based upon grouping your report with others with similar credit profiles. For example, people who have bankruptcies on their credit file are grouped into one “scorecard". People with chargoffs on their credit are grouped into another so on and so fourth. |

Why Credit Repair Mills Stink.
Ok here is the deal. Credit repair in general is still in its infancy stages. Until recently, thousands of people were able to fix their credit by using the Fair Credit Reporting Act which states if a dispute by a consumer is not validated within 30 days it had to be deleted.That’s great a lot of people were relieved of a lot of debt because of a technicality. Fast forward to today and that same worn out method is all but dead. Credit reporting agencies, creditors and collection agents work vigorously to make sure they do validate the debt almost immediately. If I stood to lose millions of dollars over such a small detail, implementing a system to verify debts would be priority one. |

100% Mortgage Financing With A Lowly "500" Credit Score?
The financing vehicles have been in place for several years now for a borrower using some creativity with a seller to make 100% financing possible. However, the real estate market had been so hot in many areas in the U.S. the sellers did not have to even entertain anything resembling creative financing.

In this current real estate market, there are creative real estate possibilities. It won’t last forever; the time is at hand to utilize seller help and creative financing if anyone with a credit challenge needs a push on buying a home. |

“Buyers Being Creative In A Soft Real Estate Market With A Challenged Credit History”
In a soft real estate market where owners need to sell and have a high degree of motivation to dispose of their property. This is the opportunity that a buyer with challenged credit history can seek to “help” a seller out of their current dilemma by arranging sale terms that will help both buyer and seller. These scenarios may not work for anyone who has zero options, zero income and zero means to pay anything back. It is rather, for those who are fighting their way back and do have options, have income and now have means to meet their obligations on a negotiated deal. This will not work if a buyer throws their hands up and gives up to the possibility of buying a property. This opportunity will work for those buyers who have a need as well as a burning desire in their belly to buy something that will meet their family goals and will do what is necessary to make it happen. |

Option ARMs: “The Sky is Falling…The Sky Is Falling So Says The Chicken Littles Of The World”
Option ARMs are getting a lot of adverse publicity and regulatory attention. It’s kind of like a smoker suing for cigarettes causing cancer and getting Alzheimer’s in the process regarding the dangers of smoking. Likewise, anyone signing on for an Option ARM suddenly suffers the memory loss associated with plowing through a mountain of disclosures and examples indicating the dangers of the negative amortization and everything that goes with it. The high foreclosure rates in the ARM segment of the mortgage business will eventually sort itself out. There will be properties sold below acquisition prices, short sales by lenders, and a few precipitated bankruptcies when area prices fall and become soft. Option ARMS utilized for investment property acquisition with an 80% or lower Loan To Value can lead to cash flow. Triplexes and fourplexes can meet the initial parameters of building a cash flow machine. Carefully put together Option ARMs can be an excellent mortgage vehicle for building cash flow in investment properties. |

When Good News Hits The New York Times, Sell
Everywhere you turn and observe in newspapers, magazines, cable, network programming, radio, Internet BLOGs, investment newsletters, real estate is bleeding badly. Bad news abounds. With a forest of real estate signs sprouting out of the ground with moss growing on the north side, things appear to have slowed in the just recent hot market. There is seller desperation in the market place. Just a few months ago, sellers would get four or five offers on a property with the winning bid at $25,000 or more above the list price. In that euphoric period, the list price was the “start” price. In that referenced selling climate, the seller would refuse any seller help to the buyer with the closing costs and prepaids. As far as repairs on flagged items found on a routine home and termite inspection. Sorry Charlie, “As-Is, Where-As” was the rule of the day. When too many buyers are chasing too few properties, prices soar. As the song goes, “What A Difference A Day Makes” When too few buyers chase abundant properties for sale-prices fall. |

The Chickens Come Home To Roost & When The Dust Settles-Lender Discovers Mortgage Fraud
Things were going great. Work was great. The economy was smoking and people reportedly making a killing in real estate. “Flipping” this property, buying this one, selling that one and just living the “American Dream” to the fullest. It was the best of times. At best investments tend to be cyclic in nature with tops and bottoms. Like many investors following the maddening crowd many buy at the top only to watch the value of the investment drop. Suddenly, the market slowed. “Flips” were stalled. Many investor sellers had difficulty moving their property and their bloated equities began to shrink. Then it happened, things went south, rentals slowed due to the gas shortage and there was a cutback at work. Foreclosure proceedings were started and the loan file was put under a microscope. Mortgage fraud was determined and criminal action was started against the borrower. This is the downside of committing mortgage fraud. Credit destroyed and lives are effected. |

Mortgage Credit Repair After Experiencing Mortgage Servicing Hell
When mortgages are sold to new mortgage companies, with new servicing companies new service occurs. Frank and Janet’s mortgage had just been recently sold to a new company that also had a new servicing company. They would always send out their payments on time between the first and fifteenth of the month, and it’d be received without a problem. But that changed just as soon as the new servicing company came into place. Around the 20th when the mortgage was due a sickening call was received on their answering machine, stating that their mortgage payment had not been received, and late charges would be imposed. This leads to credit repair, and investigation of the mortgage servicing company. |
