Maureen" Banks are still making mortgage loans, but lending criteria has become more rigid, and appraised values are in decline. Since so many properties under contract are problematic and time consuming "short sale" transactions... often times the contract sale price is determined to be MORE than the subject property's fair market value ... and as such, the Purchaser's mortgage lender rescinds approval which requires the parties to go back to the negotiating table taking more time as the values continue to drop. Its a bureaucratic red tape boondoggle. BPOs are also used by mortgage pool investors performing due diligence. They'll use a local broker to perform BPOs on property secured by mortgages to help form an opinion on the portfolio's underlying Loan to Value. Although loan servicers (entity who collects month payments), on ocassion, may order BPOs on performing loans... in my opinion, it doesn't happen very often.

[AsburyPark] Re: Impact of Unsold Condos on AP Appraisals
A BPO, or Brokers Price Opinion, doesn't carry the weight of a certified appraisal, or the price tag... A BPO can be just as accurate as a full appraisal, or, riddled with inaccuracies intentional or otherwise. There are cursory drive-by BPOs, or more involved, interior BPOs. Typically, when a mortgage loan is delinquent, in deefault, or at risk of foreclosure, a BPO performed by a local real estate broker, or broker's agent, is used by a mortgage loan servicer who needs to confirm a property's occupancy status, and general market value. During the course of a mortgage loan's delinquency and foreclosure, drive-by BPOs with photo snap might be conducted monthly... Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] A black eye
I've been encouraging my friends to set aside their preconceptions about Asbury Park, and experience First Saturday with limited success. To force participation, I offered to treat my friends to dinner this past Saturday. "You'll love it! The merchants are all open late, the sidewalks are alive, we'll usually spot Kevin Quinn playing music, and there is a police presence..." Well, we met in The Arcade on Cookman at about 6PM. We would stroll around and then dine at Raffertys. I lead the way. No sooner had we taken 20 steps out of The Arcade, I glanced back to see my "party" had been approached and then detained by two women (late teens early twenties) who were adamant about their wanting 50 cent from each of us. Unfortunately, THAT will be the experience repeated to our friends' friends. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] I deserve to lose my home!
Perhaps one third of the people I counsel who want to save their home from foreclosure are fighting an uphill, and oftentimes losing battle. When they want to fight. I help, but try to temper their expectations, and have them prepare for and accept the eventuality of relocation. Then, there are situations in which I have a reasonable expectation the homeowner can Fight Foreclosure! and keep the home. Recently, I spoke with a woman, a casual acquaintance whose home is in the early stages of foreclosure. I asked her to bring whatever documents she had pertaining to the loan's origination and mortgage foreclosure. Tearfully claiming she doesn't want to lose her home, she confessed a "friend/confidant" has convinced her saving the home is impossible and her friend (who happens to own a short sale company) is very close to negotiating a preforeclosure short sale "What choice do I have?" she asked, visibly upset and choking back tears.. If the deal is approved, this woman will have to vacate the property and find alternative/affordable housing. In my state, the foreclosure process can take about a year or more. If she did nothing, she would still have 8 or 9 months in the house before having to leave. For all I know, there will soon be a national or state moratorium on residential foreclosure adding months to the process. "Where will you go?" I asked her. "I don't know." "Doesn't it make sense to try to Fight Foreclosure! and try to keep the house?" (I run a non profit housing preservation advocacy, and in 2008 authored Fight Foreclosure! How to Cope with a mortgage you can't pay, Negotiate with your bank, and Save your home) "He said he tried but the lender refuses to modify my loan... I don't have the money to bring the loan current. The house isn't worth what I owe. I screwed up." she stated. "Have you talked to an attorney?" "No." "What have you done?" "I gave the papers to my friend (who happens to own a short sale company and deals with people in foreclosure for a living) who is helping me." MY 20+ YEAR ADVOCACY INCLUDED INVESTIGATING ALLEGATIONS OF PREDATORY LENDING PRACTICES, UNTOWARD REALTY TRANSACTIONS, AND MORTGAGE LOAN SERVICING ABUSE FOR THE MORTGAGE BANKERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. A cursory review of her loan documents indicated predatory characteristics, and I suggested we investigate the loan for compliance to Truth in Lending (TILA), RESPA, HOEPA, etc. If the loan were determined to be predatory, or made in violation to applicable state or federal lending law it would give her some leverage in seeking a loan modification... She agreed to ask her lender to provide her loan origination file to me. Based upon my experience, I concluded she had a chance at keeping her home via a cramdown loan modification. A chance. Missing from the folder she brought were the basic transaction documents needed for the "short sale" of her home: a listing agreement, contract of sale, buyer's prequalification, and the preliminary HUD1. "I don't recall signing a contract of sale..." she said, "But "he" has all the paperwork." I'll have him FAX the paperwork to you. Instead, I got a call from her "friend and confidant" who told me her situation was hopeless, and he was very close to getting a short sale approval and didn't want me to screw things up "What's the rush?" I asked him. "She is in foreclosure. The lender has refused a loan mod. This is her only option." "Well, I think the loan may be predatory, and as such, she has a chance to keep her home." "Nonsense. Her loan is from an excellent mortgage company!" "Well, I looked at the settlement statement, and I disagree. The loan, in my opinion, was unconscionable. Furthermore, as you must know, a loan in the early stages of foreclosure won't get the same attention and workout consideration from the lender as will a loan closer to Sheriffs' Sale which in this case is at least 8 or 9 months away... maybe more." "I think you screwed things up. I hope you didn't screw things up." he told me. --- (OH, BY THE WAY. I ALSO WROTE, AN ETHICAL APPROACH TO SHORT SALES IN 2006). I ask for, and he promised to FAX to me the listing agreement, contract of sale, PHUD1, etc. He didn't. Instead, I got a polite email from the woman who asked me to "back- off" because her friend would "ask again" for the lender to modify the loan. I wasn't afforded the opportunity to review the nuts and bolts of this transaction, in fact, I was denied the opportunity which raised suspicions. I have nothing invested except a little bit of time, and my compassion for anyone who is at risk of losing their home to foreclosure... But I do have some unanswered questions. Primarily, Why the rush? I also question the likely predatory nature of the mortgage in foreclosure, and who originated the questionable mortgage loan. Is there a connection

You can validate this yourself. Check your title report from when you purchased the premises. It's possible that foreclosure action pre-dated your experience with the premises. You'll see the property was subject to foreclosure, Sheriff's Sale, and owned by a small corporation. Did you purchase the property at Sheriff's Sale, from the lender as an REO, from an investor who had just purchased the property, or from the foreclosed owner whose last name began with "L" and had several syllables. Whether or not the owner of the building physically stood behind the counter or leased the building to a shopkeeper is immaterial. Yahoo!

Years ago, before Kevin Brown purchased the building from which he was asked to vacate, a previous owner faced with foreclosure on that building contacted me for assistance. I seem to recall he operated a retail auto parts business. To guestimate the building's value, I was afforded a glimpse into the building's past positioned on the second floor was a prizefighters' boxing ring complete with ringside seating. That owner lost the property directly or indirectly to foreclosure. Perhaps the new owners should burn the structure... then burn the ashes twice. Yahoo!

Another issue I have is with some transaction closing attorneys who robotically close loans which may have predatory characteristics, or sign HUD1 settlement statements in violation to TILA Reg Z.

[AsburyPark] event planning
Millville, NJ has a business and arts district which remains open late every third Friday of the month... The event is heavily publicized by local papers, and in every shoppe and gallery's window. The event draws what have been described as huge crowds including locals, visitors, and college kids from Glassboro (now Rowan) and Stockton.

[AsburyPark] Re: The "Mortgage Crisis" Report to the U.S. Conference of M...
For lack of a better word, "The Government" is pressuring (sorta like a non-binding resolution) the loan servicing industry to freeze foreclosure proceedings and then to modify loans at risk of foreclosure to keep owner-occupants in their homes. They're talking about freezing ARM rates at the 'teaser' levels from one to five years. Keeping families in their homes is ideal, and I hope damage caused by the 'subprime cherynoble' can be reversed or at least arrested. The complexities and cross securitization of mortgage debt will be anything but easy to unravel which was brought to light by an Ohio Circuit Court's recent ruling, essentially tossing out 14 foreclosure lawsuits because the 'lender?" could not legally establish its standing and right to foreclose. To paraphrase the judge's ruling, "The right to collect payment from a mortgage loan doesn't necessarily give that party the right to foreclose. The Plaintiff (who brought the foreclosure action) must prove it has ownership of the mortgage and has the contractual right to foreclose." If loan servicers unilaterally froze interest rates, or restructured loan terms, this action would cause a domino-like reaction adversely impacting certain guarantees made to the investors who hold the mortgages, or who have financial interest in securities collateralized by mortgages. Contractual guarantees unilaterally altered or rescinded result in lawsuits. In my opinion, unless and until "The Government" can unravel the clusterf__k and appease the global investment community who stand to lose untold profits if interest rates are frozen, its 'pressure' on loan servicers will meet deaf ears.

[AsburyPark] does music or theatre have a place in politics?
This is an unedited version of a letter sent to TriCityNews in response to criticism of the appropriateness of Springsteen's participation in politics... I guess because he isn't one of "We, The People" and has no business using music to voice his concerns, or to raise our level of consciences. Kudos to Tommy DeSeno for his incite-ful article - Losing Springsteen to Haute Monde Politics - in the recent Tri City News (The Educated Issue, no less!). I loved how he articulated Bruce Springsteen's attempt to politicize American rock and roll: "Why do you want to change, Bruce? In your interview with 60 Minutes, you announced a change from singing about people's personal struggles to Washington DC politics." Everyone knows that people's personal struggles have nothing to do with DC politics. Mr. DeSeno further pointed out: "Even his songs regarding war weren't political. They were about the soldier." Duh! There is absolutely no relationship between war and soldiers fighting halfway around the world in lands where they don't speak or understand the language, culture, or history, with their fingers on the trigger of a Colt XM 177 cold, exhausted, (undoubtedly poor) and ready to shoot at a moment's notice all in a (promoted) effort to protect our freedoms here at home. I mean how can someone with only a high school diploma, and who comes from a small, blue-collar, working class American town whose classmates were deployed to "fight the yellow man" in Southeast Asia in the prime of their lives - know anything about "the big issues"? Stuff like that never shapes your life. Instead, it takes a Yale University and Harvard Business School graduate from a long line of prestigious college alumni and worth millions of dollars - to adequately express the intricate and ever-expanding relationship between the common man and the common man in fatigues. Just who does Bruce Springsteen think he is? He is not fooling anyone, least of all Tommy DeSeno: "(Bruce) when the subject was politics, you stammered and stumbled. It's not your talent." That's right. Leave politics to the politicians. Hey, look at the bang up job our "representatives" are doing now (with the common man's tax dollars, the common man's sons and daughters, and continually picking the common man's pockets). As an aside, I'd like to share my personal decision-making criteria for identifying "talent" during campaign season: Always vote for the candidate with the most vibrant shades of red, white, and blue on their election signs. And if they're decorated with stars and stripes, it's a slam dunk. Rest assured, they've got your back covered! Additionally, I would love to see (court jester) Bill O'Reilly make a fool of Bruce over his political virginity. Imagine the ratings phenomenon that would be! (Note to self: Invest in Fox stock today.) I can see it now. Bruce fumbling for words to illustrate some poor national guardsman's attempt to make ends meet while securing personal lives and loved ones during repeated and endless deployment to war zones. Just let Bruce try and find the (right?) words to describe soldiers watching as comrades and civilians are blown to smithereens. What a hoot! I hope Bruce takes the (right) hint and forgets all this political stuff. It can get you into a whole mess of trouble. Consider the words of Brazilian Archbishop Helder Camara, a man who spent over 70 years tending to the impoverished citizens of his nation. He had the audacity to speak out against censorship, torture and killings. He implored the Catholic Church to move beyond charity for the poor by tirelessly advocating for fundamental social changes: "When I fed the poor, they called me a saint. When I asked, `Why are they poor?' they called me a Communist." Thank you Mr. DeSeno for pointing out that when the subject was music, Bruce was like "Shakespeare." That is an interesting analogy, though especially considering that this author of Henry VI also said: "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers." Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] What Happened?
My wife and I decided to bike ride yesterday. Starting off from our home in Oakhurst, we peddaled east to Ocean Avenue, then north thru Long Branch along the ocean. The board walk and adjacent path was filled with joggers, walkers and bikers. We saw a few people we knew puffing along the boards. The new businesses at the north end were hopping, too. A wedding reception party was gathering outside McLooons... although it was simply a beautiful day, I could not help thinking this was not the Long Branch I recalled as a child. We cruised around MTOTSA. (I have 7 "End Eminent Domain" tees, all in the laundry...) Then we aimed our old bikes into the wind toward Asbury Park. Outside Convention Hall, we ran into and talked with a Mom we knew whose husband was struck and killed by a car a couple of weeks ago. On parting, she advised us to "look both ways before crossing." Good bye, Rob. We locked our bikes outside the Twisted Tree, and had a cup of corn chowder before walking through the antique shoppes. We got a couple of scones at the place next door... the pineapple and coconut scone was worth the trip. One of the best I've ever tasted. I saw things advertised as "antiques" and recalled them as everyday applicances when I was growing up. The sight of a gleaming, plastic motorized Juicer brought back a floodgate of childhood memories. Good memories. I remembered every August or early September my folks taking me to Steinbachs, and National Shoes for school clothes. And everything else Asbury Park. Remember Mr. Peanut? My wife, a CPA, had volunteered for free tax clinic in Asbury, in the NJ Natural Gas office (which is right next door to "Under the Sun") before expanding the clinic into the Asbury Library where she, and one or two other volunteers prepare hundreds of tax returns without charge during late March and April. We spent an hour or so with"Under the Sun" owners Tony and Michelle who have some beautiful art pieces as tributes to the architectural history of Asbury Park perfect for hanging in local businesses. DO YOU HEAR THAT (Old Man Raffertys) MARK! They can take an antique era p0stcard or photograph, and replicate in on a type of silkscreen... although it is more like a fine, metal screen material and wrap it in a complimentary antique frame. A modern way to remember the past. Michelle, an expert in collectibles and a custom jewelry designer, and her husband Tony, a craftsman (and arguably the best basketball player I had ever seen) exemplify what's going right with Asbury Park. I felt at home and comfortable as I would in Lambertville, New Hope, or Lahaska. Sure, the transformation along the waterfront hasn't been pretty, but the downtown is, in my opinion, going in the right direction. Long Branch vs Asbury? For me, Asbury conjurs up good feelings while the Long Branch experience left me thinking, "What Happened?" Yahoo!

Of interest, an independent auditor's report (June 07) of Ocean's financial statements of various funds and accounts indicate the accounting and reporting practices used by Ocean Township is something other than US generally accepted accounting principles. The report to the Mayor states that the financial statements audited do not represent, fairly, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of the various individual funds of the Township of Ocean. H. I'm not suggesting anything untoward, but has anybody looked at Ocean's Financial Statement? It's Greek to me. Yahoo!

I guess up until a few years ago, he lived in Wayside and operated an entertainment/wrestling school, in addition to a part-time roofing contracting business. He was often seen about town riding his motorcycle. His son played on the Ocean Township football team. I read recently Scott turned himself into the Florida police on an outstanding warrant. He was said to have body-slammed a girlfriend. She complained. He did have a temper. Years ago I was rehabbing a huge house in Colts Neck which was in need of a new roof. I called a few roofers for estimates, thinking it would take a few days for them to prepare and submit a written estimate. Long story short, BamBam didn't get the job and didn't take it too well.

[AsburyPark] Jim Keady & Inconvenient Truth(s)
Keady's campaign included gathering information and listening to the thoughts and concerns of the people of Asbury Park. Door by door. Apparently, those people liked what he stood for enough to get him elected. Keady was elected to represent the interest of the People. Keady was not elected to be a cheerleader for redevelopment. Is Jim a politician? Thankfully, not in the traditional mold. Look where politics have gotten us? With few exceptions, our elected officials are presented to us, and 'rented' by special interests. I think more of our elected officials should take a page from the Jim Keady handbook. He might piss off the special interests... and those who shill for the special interests, but the voters know their concerns have a voice. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] In my view....
In my view, the problems that plague Asbury Park are indicative of a larger problem. While discussions about curb height, historic preservation, and a convoluted redevelopers agreement are important,so too are political discussions because the solution to Asbury's ills as well as Society's ills will be political. The average Joe doesn't much care about politics, having been disenfranchised by the political process... as evidenced by the pitiful poll turnouts. So if this isn't the right forum to discuss long term solutions... the operative word being 'discuss' how else do we engage the general public into much needed dialogue? Ff the discussions are intellectually honest, and serve to educate rather than simply facilitate goon-like behavoir, this can be a powerful forum. Yahoo!

I've spent 25 years working closely with people when they are dealing with extreme life challenges, and I've become a fair judge of character. I've met Jim Keady. He is a good, sincere, intellectually honest guy. He is a forward thinker and sees the bigger picture of how things are and how they ought to be. He wants to build a bridge between the two.

I should have simply written a letter to the TCN last June. Your interpretation of Marx is a matter of intellectual honesty. A common misconception shared by many is that the Soviets attempted Marx's Communism. The irrefutable fact is they didn't. The Soviets utilized commodity production, a political government, and a wages system much the same as the capitalism we endure here in our own country. The Communist Manifesto from which you quoted, AND took the quote out of context , was written by a young Marx who had not yet examined and analyzed capitalism to the extent that it was in Das Capital, which was his most significant contribution to our understanding of how capitalism works, something all of us should know and discuss, that is, if we're interested in and committed to living in a real democracy. You wrote, "The following is Marx's most famous quote from the CM: "In this sense, the theory of communism may be summed up in the single sentence: abolition of private property" You eliminated the full, authentic text which qualified Marx's qualifier "in this sense..." In its context, Marx's "bourgeois private property" is TODAY's MODERN, PRIVATELY OWNED, CORPORATION... the GMs, the GEs, the Halliburtons, and the rest of the corporate complex whose dominant owners, (in contrast to the small investors) whose market system and values dictate our culture. Those same dominant owners of industry control our Congressional seats through campaign financing. Marx never outlined a clear alternative to the current "private" ownership (again, meaning corporately owned) of our necessary industries. His real contribution is in pointing out how capitalism's institutions do not serve well most citizens... and is counter-productive to having a democratic, prosperous, and peaceful society. As of today, we, as in We The People, have the US Constitution which enables us to have a society in which our needed industries are socially owned and democratically operated by ourselves for our own use... rather than for the profit interests of a distinct capitalist class minority. I'm concerned by the recent strong-armed attacks on our constitutional freedoms in the name of 'protecting Americans'. Yesterday was heralded and disguised as a benchmark day in the fight against terrorism... but it really was a punch in the gut to the US Constitution... and a get out of jail free card for the present administration. I digress. If you want to continue this discussion, I'll be in Amherst, MA later this month for a conference on "Marx Revisited" But I guess I won't see you there. I do, however, appreciate your insight into Asbury Park. Yahoo!

My comment, "Oh, he knows the Right's talking points, little else, " was in response to your columns... in particular, your basic misunderstanding of Marx... said misundertandings suggest your 'education' came from corporate media outlets or what is parroted by today's politicians. For example, where did you come away with the idea Marx advocated "government" ownership of the land? Certainly nowhere in the works of Marx. Perhaps you read or heard someone's misinterpretation and held it as true... Likely from the likes of a Limbaugh of O'Reilly, or another daily capitalist propaganda machine. Marx, who argued against the wage system, agaionst commodity production, and against the political state. Any serious study of Marx would reveal he made it clear that any type of government which employed political divisions was not in the interest of the people. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Asbury Partners
The role of master developer, at least in other high profile NJ redevelopment projects, is that of a choreographer/solicitor. The MD (master developer) creates the opportunity and positions itself in the drivers seat The MD doesn't get the whole pie, but seeks as many pieces of the pie as possible... including every source of revenue not demanded by the sub-developer including signage, vending, parking, ancillary business opportunities... all the while seeking to reduce costs and/or shift the burden to sub-developers or the community itself. Their at risk capital is in the form of soft costs... not necessarily in the form of stix and bricks. The fees paid to lawyers, accountants, economists, site engineers, architects, surveyors, appraisers, political bribery, etc. I would guestimate the ProForma (the formal pitch to the sub-developers) alone cost upwards of $250,000... or maybe 10 times that amount. I'd bet a lot of MD's soft costs were subsidized by grants or low interest loans from the New Jersey Economic Redevelopment Agency, Department of Commerce, even the DOT. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Depressing Story - Real Estate Recession
I call it a perfect storm. #1. The anticipated housing market decline. Artificial equity is evaporating revealing a home's true value with relation to the amount of the mortgage(s). The recent wave of cash out refinancing (equity depleting) sometimes up to 90% or more of the home's Fair Market Value may result in a large portion of American housing mortgaged to the hilt #2. Adjustable Mortgage Loan RESET. Those mortgage loans now are resetting from artificially low interest rates to somewhat higher rates making homeownership more expensive... #3.Changes in bankruptcy laws will challenge homeownership as many debtors can't afford Chapter 13 repayment plans... Chapter 13 has long been the last lifeline between foreclosure and preserving homeownership. Now that lifeline isn't in close reach. Oh, have you noticed the minimum monthly credit card payment has increased? Coinciding with the new bankruptcy laws, credit card companies decided to increase the minimum payment placing further strain on household budgets. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Gold Digger-What happened?
I recall going there in my late teens and early 20s. I drove the circuit with a friend who had a brand new, white, 1974 Monte Carlo. I couldn't use my car because it would have been stop, jump out, and push at every light. CB radios were big then. I never took a 'lude' but I knew what it was, and the people who took them, in retrospect, seemed vey happy... Didn't the former Asbury Park Mayor take a lot of ludes? Or did he just sell them. I can't recall, but his family owned a funeral home. Does anyone remember John Bass, the artist? He used to hang out at the Golddigger.. and later had a series on local cable TV painting acrylics a la Bob Ross. I think he lost a leg. Didn't Golddigger have bar hot dogs? My grandmother, after my Grandfather passed away, worked at the Criterian Candy store. The first time I went in there was to see her working I saw here in her white iniform, and she gave me something I had never seen or tasted before: white chocolate. She would take the bus from Criterian a few miles north to where she lived. The bus was a perfectly safe and acceptable form of transportation even for little old ladies smelling of boardwalk chocolate. Yahoo!
