Foreclosed on? Settlement 1.5 Billion Lost to "Independent Consultants"

Thursday, February 28, 2013
by Liz Warren

Remember that Big settlement of 8.5 Billion dollars that the big ten banks had to pay for the mortgage mess providing 3.8 Billion back to homeowners who were fraudulently foreclosed on between 2009-2010 ? Did you know as part of the settlement the banks spent 1.5 Billion of the 3.8 Billion dollars on "independent consultants" to figure out how to get the money to the foreclosed homeowners?

After complaints to Ben Bernake that the process was taking way too long, the OCC/Fed is working out how payments are made through the servicers and not using  the "independent consultants" after 1.5 Billion dollars! Most of the consulting dollars went to Promontory Financial Group.  Guess who runs Promontory Financial Group: the former chairman of the OCC: Gene Ludwig. 

More details of the 1.5 Billion loss can be found in this Forbes article.

Mt. Hood Market Information on Sales for January 2013

Friday, February 15, 2013
by Liz Warren

I believe I had a little whiplash from the drop in number of sales in January 2013 compared to the run up in the last six months of 2012! January totals came in at four sales. After months of 10 to 14 sales per month it appears new tax policy or the fiscal cliff put a big brake on the run up towards the end of the year causing a little downturn.

Mt. Hood area salesinformation for January 2013

This chart from RMLS compares numbers from the same month one year ago. Most experts are saying that 2013 will be a big year for sales as any buyer who wants to take advantage of good rates needs to act right now. By the end of 2013 we could see an increase in rates of nearly 1%! If you are looking to purchase your Mt. Hood getaway, now is the time to act!
