here is an unprecedented number of foreclosures in Arizona. More homeowners than ever face the possibility that they will lose their homes because they are unable to pay their mortgage. The Arizona Foreclosure Coalition offers staff and resources to help homeowners find ways to keep their homes. This is a three-hour class taught by one of the nation’s leading consumer advocates/activists in the home retention arena. Help homeowners KEEP their homes and win referrals from those homeowners for many years! THIS CLASS IS NOT ABOUT HOW TO EARN INCOME WITH LOAN- MODIFICATION-FOR- MONEY-PROGRAMS. This class will teach real estate agents how to use legitimate outreach methods to help people save their homes, not get-rich-quick schemes that take advantage of distressed homeowners.
Excerpt from "Real Estate Dough," (Rossdale Press, 2008) by Bernice Ross, Ph.D.:
"Frances Flynn Thorsen ... raised an issue that almost no one in the real estate industry has addressed. In our rush to become foreclosure experts and to close more short sales, we have neglected the most important role that we could play ... assisting homeowners in restoring their hope and providing them with a path to staying in their homes."
· Increasing numbers of homeowners are reaching outcomes that leave them with lower mortgage payments and a plan that helps them remain in their homes. Learn how this outreach works and how YOU can help supply resources.
· Learn how to create your own Public Service Announcements … create good will.
· HUD-certified counselors are available seven days a week in Pima County to help distressed homeowners
· Lending giant Freddie Mac is working with Arizona nonprofits and with Pima County to help homeowners KEEP their homes.
· Get the skinny on paid loan modification schemes.
· Short sale hawks are using predatory marketing techniques to obtain listings.
· Short sales are a LAST RESORT.
