I'd also say there is a difference between calling ones crime a "paperwork error" versus loud and clear statements that any so called crimes "never happened, and so I'll see YOU in court!". Every "charge" will continue to be appealed and litigated through the courts. Eventually the Tamarind...

She could be arrested, tried, and convicted however for prior criminal acts.

The documentation released so far is pretty clear. We live in the age of blame shifting. It's not me. It's "a paperwork error" or "an innocent mistake". An honorable person would have taken the hit and quietly moved out of the spotlight. Lisa Cook is not that person. Remember dear reader that...

May I suggest applying now, floating your rate, then locking sometime deep in October. That way you'll beat everyone else during the rush to refinance once The Fed cuts rates in September. Your loan will be fully processed and not held up by that expected wave of new loan volume which may delay...

A loan broker could have placed these loans through two different conduits with neither one knowing about it. That's the simple way to do this, otherwise you have to find two separate L.O.'s willing to end the rules - not a very hard task indee The LOE's are boilerplate with: "Those credit...

I have no idea why @OCtoSV refi'd so this is just an overview to answer the original question - "So it's worth doing for 50 bp's? " Generally speaking, if a refi is for a payment issue, yes, a .25 to .50 rate reduction refi makes sense. Some borrowers simply don't care about paying off their...

What LO. would allow it? The count is almost infinite. Lisa Cook's signature is on the documents. So is the LO's .... The Underwriter (if there was one as many loans are approved by software and not humans) should also be under review based on the the L.O.'s application. I don't know if these...

Chicago's leaders say one thing but their people say quite another. I trust the people. Wake me once The Marigold Monarch federalizes The Palisades and Altadena burn zones, getting rid of Governor Dippidy-Doo and Mayor Brillo Pad, and thus allowing the rebuilding pace to go from "snail" to...

For a 2 car garage (as per listing)??? That's some strong shiat they're sniffing to list at that price.

I'd look to see when the builder reports their earnings, assuming they are a public company. Those reporting dates are a big factor in when you can close. For example, some builders FY end is October so closing in January may be no issue. Only a Per Diem may be charged. Others might report as of...

Had the builder not offered the same deal to under contract, near to closing buyers everyone would have cancelled. Reselling a previously customized home can be difficult. Those who already closed would have put signs in their windows complaining about the builder eventually causing a stigma...

I'd prefer to see them build ADU's in LA and SF so those who voted for Bass / Newsom, ect can live alongside them. It's only fair that voters who wanted the policies that lead to this problem get the reward of seeing first hand what the results are. If you say that's unfair, how is it fair to...

"Area Expert....." I guess it's what to expect when you have one listing photo showing a bare dirt back yard yet two other photos showing a 'shopped "grass" backyard?

@CalBears96 You are right about vacant homes being purchased by some as a future investment. It's often a cash deal. When financed however most want only owner occupied rates and terms for a home that is required to be occupied by the borrower within 60 days. The transaction you've described is...

No one cares about money laundering. If they did, the OC real estate market would crash. If money laundering is suspected, realtors and escrows are to report it, but while the cash is flowing like a tsunami from Kamchatka, why would anyone go against the tides and stop the party? If we knew...

Hard to say White Flight is part of all this. Humans, no matter their melanin level, are among other things greedy, lazy beings. An "Irvine original" homeowner is selling their property. 888 offers come flooding in. The top buyers are either way over list or all cash. At that point do these...

Let's hope this news on Tuesday isn't simply TACO https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-considering-eliminating-capital-gains-tax-houses

Curious... was that $120k on just rear yard landscaping or front as well?

Video interview about In-N-Out move. Thanks Governor Dippidy Doo.
