Interesting story, but the longer homes are allowed to avoid foreclosure, which artificially buoys housing prices, the longer it will take for the overall economy to recover (and Harry Reid couldn't give a flying v):
The plan swept states with some of the highest foreclosure levels, including California, Nevada and Arizona, into a swelling crisis over lenders’ flawed paperwork that had been mostly confined to 23 other states that require judicial review of foreclosures.More on housing at Instapundit.
Bank of America instituted a partial freeze last week in those 23 states, and three other major mortgage lenders have done the same. The bank’s decision on Friday increased pressure on other lenders to extend their moratoriums nationwide as well.
An immediate effect of the action will be a temporary stay of execution for hundreds of thousands of borrowers in default. The bank said it would be brief, a mere pause while it made sure its methods were in order.
But as the furor grows over lenders’ attempts to bypass legal rules in their haste to reclaim houses from delinquent owners, there is a growing expectation that foreclosures will dwindle for months as the foreclosure system is reworked.
Stan Humphries, an economist with the housing site Zillow.com, said what was initially cast as a problem of sloppy record-keeping is rapidly evolving into one that suggests the banks’ procedures for recording loans might not have followed the law.
“The former scenario represents a hiccup for the market, maybe a 30- to 90-day slowdown in foreclosure initiations,” Mr. Humphries said. “The latter scenario is more like hitting a wall.”
The uncertainty is putting the housing market in turmoil and causing vast confusion. Bank of America, for example, said it was not halting sales of foreclosed properties to new owners, but Fannie Mae, the giant mortgage holding company, is doing exactly that with properties it bought from Bank of America.
One real estate agent in Florida said Friday that he had six deals involving former Bank of America properties that had been at least temporarily scuttled. Representatives for Fannie, which was taken over by federal regulators after it failed two years ago, did not return calls.
Real estate agents said the extent of any disruption depended on how long the moratorium lasted, how many lenders ultimately participated — and what people in default decided to do.
“If it’s still January, February, March, and they’re not foreclosing, you’ll see a big effect,” said Jim Klinge, an agent in San Diego. “It’ll be a banker’s holiday, free rent for everybody and a lawyers’ gold mine.”

Last week we learned that, under intense pressure from Congressman Alan Grayson and other determined congressional and executive watchdogs, Bank of America decided to join banksters JPMorgan Chase and GMAC in suspending foreclosure processes in 23 states that "weren't reviewed properly." How many illegal foreclosures have already forced families out of their homes? It's why Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), early in 2009, told her constituents to stay put in their homes if some crooked bankster tried to force them out.
In the video above, Rep. Grayson explains, in layman's terms-- and with horrifying details-- what kind of unconscionable fraud the banks have been up to. Even the staid old NY Times has taken note of the scandal this week.
The foreclosure machinery that has forced millions of Americans out of their homes is beginning to seize up as some lenders and their lawyers are accused of cutting corners in their pursuit of rapid home repossessions.
Evictions are expected to slow sharply, housing analysts said, as state and national law enforcement officials shine a light on questionable foreclosure methods revealed by two of the country’s biggest home lenders in the last two weeks.
Even lenders with no known problems are expected to approach defaulting homeowners more cautiously and look more aggressively for resolutions short of outright eviction.
Despite the turmoil, some economists said the breakdown could ultimately lay the groundwork for a real estate recovery.
Stricken neighborhoods across the country, for example, could benefit. One big factor undermining home sales is fear of a large number of foreclosed homes coming to the market. If the foreclosures are delayed or never happen, housing prices might find a floor.
...As more defaulting homeowners become aware of the lenders’ problems, they are expected to hire lawyers and challenge the proceedings against them. And if completed foreclosures were not properly done, families who bought the troubled homes could be vulnerable to claims by the former owners.
Apparently alarmed about such a possibility, one of the major title insurance companies, Old Republic National Title, has sent a bulletin to agents saying that “until further notice” it would not insure title to properties foreclosed upon by GMAC Mortgage, the country’s fourth-largest home lender and one of the two big lenders at the center of the current controversy.
GMAC declined to comment, and Old Republic representatives did not return calls.
GMAC has acknowledged legal missteps in processing mortgages, and JPMorgan Chase has acknowledged the possibility of missteps, and both have suspended all foreclosures in the 23 states where they need a court’s approval. That’s 56,000 in the case of Chase alone; GMAC declined to provide a number.
Attorneys general in half a dozen states are demanding action or opening investigations. The Treasury Department said Thursday it was asking regulators to look into “these troubling developments.”
“We’re seeing a fundamental breakdown in the system, because no one cared that much about getting things right,” said Representative Alan Grayson, a Democrat of Florida, who unsuccessfully asked the Florida Supreme Court to halt all foreclosures in that state.
Grayson, of course, was maligned and viciously slandered again and again by Fox News for having the temerity to interfere. However, after Grayson got Florida to act, other states did likewise. Friday Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal ordered a moratorium on all foreclosures by all banks for two months and California Attorney General Jerry Brown ordered J.P. Morgan to prove it is following the law before it continues foreclosures in California.
n Connecticut, Blumenthal said in a statement that he is investigating J.P. Morgan Chase and Ally, formerly GMAC, which is the recipient of a $17 billion federal bailout and majority-owned by the U.S. Treasury, as well as other lenders.
He said the actions of J.P. Morgan and Ally are a "possible fraud on the court undermining the integrity of the legal process and consumers' ability to fight foreclosures.
"This freeze should stop a foreclosure steamroller based on defective documents and enable effective remedies," Blumenthal said.
It's worth noting that Michael Moore, in a kind of open letter to the fractured and bumbling Democrats, laying out a roadmap for salvaging the midterms and turning them into a landslide victory instead of what pundits are predicting, calls for just this kind of action in the 3rd of 5 suggestions:
3. Announce a Moratorium on All Family Home Foreclosures.
Last month (August) there were more home foreclosures than in any month in U.S. history. Worse than any month in the worst year ever, 2009. The bleeding hasn't stopped-- it's only gotten worse. And now, this week, two of the largest crime organizations who are throwing hundreds of thousands of people out of their homes (GMAC and JPMorgan Chase) have been forced to momentarily stop doing this. It turns out, they don't really have the paperwork to prove they actually own these houses! It's madness. So if you do one thing for the middle class this week, do this. It will take an hour of your time to draw up the decree and issue it. We'd rather watch It's a Wonderful Life than Poltergeist.
Obviously, with corporate shills like Steny Hoyer and his collection of mangy, bribe-hungry Blue Dogs, having so much say in the Democratic Party, this is never going to happen. It's Sunday, a very good time to get Grayson's back; he about all we've got standing between us and what Frank Rich referred to today as "the billionaires and corporate interests that have been steadily annexing the Tea Party movement and busily plotting to cash in their chips if the G.O.P. prevails... Wall Street potentates and corporate titans."

Bank loss mitigators work with people who are facing foreclosure and help them find options to stop the process. Most loss mitigators are employed by banks and lending institutions. However, there are also independent agents who work on behalf of the homeowner and assist them in negotiating with their lender.
The primary duty of bank loss mitigators is to help homeowners create a repayment plan and work with lenders to stop the foreclosure process. Homeowners must provide financial records detailing their income and expenses so the loss mitigator can determine which options are available.
When the homeowner is able to become current on their mortgage note, lenders will oftentimes reinstate the loan and no further action will be taken. If the homeowner is unable to become current, but has the financial means to make a partial payment, bank loss mitigators might suggest a Loan Modification. When homeowners are unable to make any mortgage payments, loss mitigators oftentimes recommend a short sale.
With loan modifications, lenders agree to reduce or temporarily suspend mortgage payments and extend the terms of the loan. For example, if the homeowner is four months behind on their mortgage, bank loss mitigators can help negotiate a plan allowing the homeowner to pay the delinquent amount over an extended period of time. Or, the lender might roll the four payments to the end of the loan, giving the homeowner a fresh start.
In the case of short sales, lenders agree to accept a lesser amount than is owned on the mortgage note. For example, if the balance owed is $150,000, the bank may agree to accept a short sale amount of $140,000 or less. Each bank is different and some are more flexible in negotiating short sales than others. The key to a successful transaction is to convince the lender a short sale will be more beneficial to them than foreclosure.
Bank loss mitigators can assist homeowners in loan modifications and short sales; however, they do not have the authority to accept or deny the request. Instead, they assist borrowers in preparing financial documents and reviewing their proposal prior to submitting it to the lender. Loss mitigators can identify red flags that could delay the process and submit information to the bank on the homeowner's behalf.
Homeowners facing foreclosure are oftentimes extremely stressed out. One of the biggest mistakes they make is to vent their frustrations at the bank loss mitigator. Realize loss mitigators can make or break your deal with the lender. If you want to save your home from foreclosure, by all means be respectful to the individual who is trying to help you.
Although foreclosure can be emotionally overwhelming, there are many options available to help stop the process. Take time to know your rights and educate yourself about the process prior to contacting your bank's loss mitigation department. Doing so will help you be prepared when presenting your case to the bank loss mitigator.
Keep in mind most banks prefer to work with homeowners and avoid the foreclosure process. Valuable information about foreclosure, short sales and bank loss mitigation options can be obtained through the Federal Housing Administration (FHA).
