1. a question about identifying homeowners in default

Subject: a question about identifying homeowners in default

Michigan has recently enacted "Save the Dream" legislation that creates
a mechanism to refinance ARMs and also has a rescue fund component. We
have a local coalition that has been working on foreclosure issues and
have come to realize that predatory lenders can identify individual =3D
homeowners who are in default and in danger of foreclosure. If we could
do the same, we could help homeowners access the Save the Dream programs
which are targeted to pre-foreclosure homeowners. So my question is
this: how does an entity identify target homeowners? Could a community
coalition do the same thing? Where do we get the information?
Thanks!!!

Yes, a community coalition or individual can do the same thing. You can
go
to http://www.countyrecordsresearch.com/ and get a listing of defaults
and
foreclosures in a specified geographical area.



We (San Diego Urban Economic Corporation) have been using it to not only
identify those how need expeditious assistance, but which also
identifies
the lender to target for chastising.



We've been able to target market to specific homeowners whom we KNOW to
be
in danger and have been able to assist approx 35 homeowners with KEEPING
their homes. (That may seem like a small number, but we are a small
organization). In addition we've been able to educate those whom are
not in
danger so that they may become stronger advocates for the assistance
SDUEC
provides.



Conversely, we are also looking for capital to fund a land bank or trust
in
targeted areas to combat capitalistic speculators who are buying
properties
to rent out, with no

regard to the fabric of the communities. There is the possibility for
community based organizations to increase and broaden their social
portfolios and goodwill work by owning more of their respective
communities,
as opposed to speculators whose only concern is profit.
