Hi Everyone,
Here’s the follow up from today’s Foreclosure class.
I promised to send some fun links on my new consumer protection hero Elizabeth Warren. Here are some of her Daily Show clips.
Here is the very cool interactive map from the New York Times. Yeah, every city thinks they’re special and this couldn’t possibly have happened in “our” city.
Here’s Ken Harney’s article on credit scores. And here’s Ardell’s blog post as a follow up. She has the nice visual graph for you.
Here’s the link to the WA State Bar Assoc regarding their legal aid program for homeowners facing foreclosure.
Here’s more information on the new WA State Foreclosure laws.
Here’s the link to the Making Home Affordable government website for a homeowner to see whether or not they qualify for the Obama Administration’s foreclosure mitigation options.
Here’s a recent article about investors flipping foreclosed homes at various price ranges in the Seattle area.
Some folks were curious about the 3 investor groups that represent buyers who want to buy homes at the foreclosure auction like the one we watched in class, and the one I filmed in May here.
Those companies are: Vestus, Foreclosure Resolutions NW, and RE Investment Firm.
Here’s my youtube channel with the recent foreclosure video from this past May over in Factoria.
I didn’t mention this in class but according to some economists “household creation” is one of the keys to the recovery of the housing market. Here’s the link to my favorite finance and econ blogger CR and his analysis.
Thanks for your attendance today and I hope to see you all again!
