Hi Everyone,
Here are links to some of the things we covered today.
Here’s a link to a blog post I wrote about the two new forms from DFI and DOL, the Short Sale Seller Advisory and the Short Sale Guidelines for Licensees.
Here’s the FTC MARS Ruling on short sale negotiators and upfront fees.
Here’s the IRS website on the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act. This page speaks to tax-related questions.
Here’s the WA State Foreclosure Fairness Act and here’s the new WA State Foreclosure Resource Guide This is a VERY GOOD PDF for distressed homeowners.
We mentioned a loan originator a couple of times. I recommend reading the Seattle Weekly story about Shawn Portmann.

And here’s a recent blog post I wrote about a program called Assignment of Mortgage Payment Systems.
