Can troubled morgage companies call in their mortgage loans?


Question by Brandon E: Can troubled morgage companies call in their mortgage loans?
I’m current on my note. This is just a general question. I know about foreclosure for non-payment. I’m asking a hypothetical question. Can a mortgage company arbitrarily call in their home loans anytime they want and for any reason? or under what circumstances can they call in a mortgage loan, other than default?

Best answer:

Answer by acermill
They cannot call them in as long as you honor your terms of the agreement. A mortgage is a contract, and both sides are required to honor the terms of same.

National Association of Loan Officers Meets With HUD To Advocate Licensing for Loan Officers


National Association of Loan Officers Meets With HUD To Advocate Licensing for Loan Officers

Tallahassee, FL (PRWEB) July 13, 2006

A delegation from the National Association of Responsible Loan Officers (NARLO), the trade association of mortgage loan originators, saw with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., to discourse loan officer issues on June 28. NARLO was corresponded by Ella Gurfinkel of Executive Financial Solutions Inc., Portland Ore.; Christopher Cruise, Baltimore, Md.; and Robert Skrob, NARLO executive director.

The highlight of the group’s trip to Washington was its meeting with Brian Montgomery, Federal Housing Administration commissioner and assistant secretary for housing at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The representatives from NARLO were joined by John L. Garvin, senior advisor; Lily Lee, deputy assistant secretary for single family housing; Phil Murray, associate deputy assistant secretary for single family housing; and Margaret Burns, director, Office of Single Family Program Development.

“The members of the National Association of Responsible Loan Officers are fed up with mortgage loan fraud and the low barriers to entry into the mortgage industry,” said Skrob. “For NARLO members, minimum licensing standards are not acceptable. We must clean up our industry, and to do that we must require all entrants into our industry to undergo a minimum of 40 hours of training, testing and background checks.”

The National Association of Responsible Loan Officers represents the 400,000 mortgage loan originators throughout the country that are employed by mortgage brokers. NARLO fights mortgage fraud by advocating stricter standards for loan officers and through public education.

The National Association of Responsible Loan Officers provides a free web seminar titled “The Newly Discovered Secret Weapon That Turns Rate Shoppers Into Closed Deals for Less Than the Cost of a Grande Latte, Guaranteed.” Visit http://www.NARLO.com.

Anonymously Shop Mortgage Loans


Anonymously Shop Mortgage Loans

Hermosa Beach, Calif. (PRWEB) October 4, 2006

A new website has been designed to offer mortgage consumers the ability to shop mortgage home loans anonymously. LAL Enterprises, Inc. has announced the official launch of http://www.LoanAgentsLive.com a chat based mortgage “shopping mall” with instant live access to over one hundred mortgage companies.

The website is different from typical mortgage websites, because a visitor is actually communicating live with a professional mortgage consultant. One click and the visitor can chat live with a loan consultant from the brokerage of their choice.

When a customer visits LoanAgentsLive.com, they select a state to find lenders licensed to serve them. A link next to each company’s display ad indicates whether a loan officer at the brokerage is available to chat.

It appears to be a successful approach as more and more consumers are reluctant to give out their phone numbers and personal information via online applications. Based upon preliminary results from a beta test conducted by LAL Enterprises, Inc., consumers are over 4 times more likely to initiate a chat with a mortgage consultant then fill out an online application.

Chat technology allows consumers the ability to “test the waters” without having to provide their phone number or e-mail address. Consumers also have the option to switch to a phone conversation with the same loan consultant at anytime they wish during a chat.

Offering live chat to mortgage consumers is a newer concept, but some industry giants already have implemented it. According to The Washington Times, live chat helped increase Bank of America’s online mortgage sales by 800 percent in the first quarter of this year, compared with one year earlier.

It’s good news for Bank of America and their “good credit” customers, but what about other mortgage consumers? Those that can’t qualify for a traditional loan or those that what to shop companies and ask around.

According to the President of LAL Enterprises Inc., Aaron Quick, that’s what makes LoanAgentsLive.com so unique. Quick stated, “Having the ability to shop, ask, and get answers from multiple mortgage companies offering all types of mortgage loans and services, all on one site, live and anonymously; that’s what makes us appealing to consumers.”

To ensure the safety of visitors to the website all chats are done over a secure server. LoanAgentsLive.com also conducts background checks and personal interviews with all listed brokerage firms to exclude those with a history of predatory lending. For more information please contact Patrick Bliesener at 310-374-7896 or visit http://www.LoanAgentsLive.com

About LoanAgentsLive.com:

Offering mortgage seek consumers a simple and untroubled way to chat, in real-time, directly and anonymously with a Loan Consultant from the Lender of their choice.

Chat, Choose, Win!

ABT Announces New Low-Cost Software Solution for Loan Origination Tracking


ABT Announces New Low-Cost Software Solution for Loan Origination Tracking

Folsom, CA (PRWEB) February 3, 2005

Access Business Technologies, provider of innovative web-based software solutions for the mortgage industry, has announced the development of a new product that allows mortgage lenders to track new loans at a greatly reduced cost.

“We’ve found that many lenders don’t start tracking lend until they’re entered into the system by the loan processor. This is because tracking software has traditionally been too expensive for some lenders to buy copies for each loan officer. This results in the loan processor duplicating work done earlier by the loan officer,” says Justin Kirsch, President and CEO of ABT.

Kirsch says lenders are losing money because they’ve had to continue to rely on inefficient manual processes. Also, they don’t have an accurate picture of their loan pipeline because of the delay in getting loans into the system.

“AccessPoint™ lets you see the loan status using your existing software as soon as the loan officer completes the application. Everyone from the processor to the manager can see the loan immediately. This includes parent companies who want to keep better track of their net branches. And, it’s available for around $ 19.95 per loan officer per month,” says Kirsch.

AccessPoint works with ABT’s DecisionPoint™ software as well as other industry-standard applications used by loan processors and managers, such as CalyxPoint and DataTrac. Loan applications are transmitted easily from the loan officer to a central database and the loan processor is immediately notified and has access to the loan application, using ABT’s web-based user interface.

Kirsch says that using AccessPoint will save time that is currently being wasted. “In many mortgage brokerages, loan officers complete the application, print it out, and fax it to the loan officer. The loan processor then re-enters the same information into another system. Meanwhile, loan officers spend too much time following up on faxes and checking loan status. Because AccessPoint gives the processor immediate access to new loan applications, the entire loan process is faster and each processor can handle more loans.”

AccessPoint gives loan officers access to their own loan pipeline from their desktop. They can provide customers with immediate loan status, saving time and telephone calls.

AccessPoint is a real-time solution that eliminates many of the manual processes used to transmit information between loan officers and loan processors.

Mortgage lenders who have affiliated NetBranches can use DecisionPoint and AccessPoint to track all of their pending loans using a single integrated software product. Lenders who now use DecisionPoint for their loan processors can add AccessPoint for their loan officers for a minimal cost, making it an ideal solution for small- to medium-sized mortgage lenders who want to speed up the loan origination process.

Interested parties can obtain a more information about AccessPoint from the ABT website at AccessPoint.MyABT.com.

About ABT

Access Business Technologies hosts industry-standard mortgage processing software over the Internet, enabling banks, credit unions, mortgage servicers, and housing authorities to automate the entire mortgage lending process.

BD Nationwide Mortgage Offers a Convertible Home Equity Line of Credit with Options to Refinance Portions to a Fixed Rate Second Mortgage Loan


BD Nationwide Mortgage Offers a Convertible Home Equity Line of Credit with Options to Refinance Portions to a Fixed Rate Second Mortgage Loan

Encinitas, CA (PRWEB) August 29, 2006

BD Nationwide Mortgage introduces a smart home equity loan that can separate into several loans with both fixed and adjustable rates. BD Nationwide has released a new home equity product that boasts of a convertible home equity line of credit offering options for turning variable interest rates into fixed rate second mortgages. BD Nationwide proudly presents the “Fixed Rate HELOC Conversion Program.” This unique home equity program allows homeowners to convert portions of their adjustable rate equity line into fixed rate home equity loans. Another key feature is that these second mortgages allow you to keep the unused portion of the home equity line open, while fixing the interest rate for the specified portion. In that sense, the HELOC splits into two loans. (one loan is a fixed lump-sum loan and the other is an open end line of credit)

Conversion options are available to convert a portion or all of the home equity line balance to a fixed interest rate home equity loan. This program allows you to convert HELOC portions to fixed rate loan eight times during the draw period.

Advances for fixed second mortgage rates can be requested at anytime during the ten-year draw period: Three fixed rate advances may be open at any one time. The conversion feature limits you to a total of eight fixed rate advances may be requested over the draw period. In addition, there are no lending fees to convert to a fixed rate. Loan advance options are based on the balance requested.

Lynda Nelms, a Sr. Loan Officer and Mortgage Consultant at BD Nationwide, said, “This is a progressive loan that allows my borrowers to be savvy using their home equity when they see fit, while converting adjustable rate interest into a fixed rate second mortgage with a simple interest amortization.” Nelms continued, “These days I find homeowners need cash out for debt consolidation or home improvements, but they already have a large second mortgage.”

The Fixed Rate HELOC Conversion Program enables our clients to refinance and convert their existing line of credit into a fixed rate second mortgage, while opening up an additional revolving credit line they can access later. This home equity conversion loan is a great solution for the recent dilemma of refinancing jumbo home equity loans that seem to be so common with million dollar homebuyers. BD Nationwide Mortgage Company has partnered with many of the nations leading home equity lenders.

Home Equity Line of Credit Draw Period : 10 years
Second Mortgage Rate is a Variable Rate ( WSJ prime interest rate index plus margin)

Home Equity Loan Terms: 15, 20, 25 or 30-years
Second mortgage rates are fixed interest rates (fixed interest based on market conditions on the conversion date)

Home Equity Loan Repayment Terms:
Borrower may request a fixed rate advance from the customer pitied dept. after the lender funds the loan.

Fixed Rate Advance Option: Fixed-rate advance options can initially be requested by loan officer at the time of disclosures.
