Real Estate Fraud!
Posted by Justin Botner on Tuesday, March 9th, 2010 at 10:24am.My name is Justin Botner; a local Realtor in the valley.
Many home owners are in trouble affording their home mortgage. Uncle Sam put together the Loan Modification program to try to help these individuals.
Now a new epidemic of fraud has been inspired. Many companies stating that they will help with your loan modification are simply swindling your money and at times your house!
Being an educated consumer is your best defense. Be wary of upfront costs. Don’t make payments to your bank through a third party. Call your bank directly and ask what could be modified on your loan and what to expect. You may find a very different story from a third party. Your bank’s assessment usually will be very accurate.
Also ask a Realtor for help. As a Realtor I have many other professionals that help with modifications. Most of these services are free.
I help many people across the valley to sell and buy short sales, foreclosures, and investment properties. I work in Tempe, Phoenix, Ahwatukee, Chandler, Scottsdale, Gilbert and throughout the valley.
