20090709-foreclosuredebt-clipartcomMany a client call me when its toooooo late however sometimes something can be done it would envolve an appeal and this application for a stay.

When title to the property is still in dispute ie. the foreclosure was bad. They (the lender)did not comply with California civil code 2923.5 or 2923.6 or 2924. Or the didn’t possess the documents to foreclose ie. the original note.

    Dear Timothy:

    Here’s my situation.

    -According to my lender, my primary residene was “sold at auction on 1/20/09”.
    -Prior to that, I didn’t receive any recent notice of default nor notice of sale. I was supposedly in the modification process.
    -Anyway, on 1/23/09, a real estate agent was offering me money ($2000) to move out. I didn’t take the offer.
    -The following week, a “3-day” eviction notice was posted on my door and I received exact notices in my mail.
    – I called the LLC company who sent the eviction notice and told them I can’t move in 3 days. They said they understood and that it’ll take about 45-60 days for the process to continue before a sheriff would come out.
    – Went to the county recorder’s office and didn’t see any recordings of a sale on 1/20/09 for my property.
    – My house is already listed on the real estate agent’s site and it’s making me really anxious.

    Please advise me of my options. I want to fight the lender. I really don’t want to lose my home.

    Thank you in advance.

    Timothy:

    I almost forgot. I’m a disabled veteran with an autistic child. My home loan was not a VA loan. If worst comes to worse, is there any way, with my now poor credit, I can buy back my property from the “new owners”.

    Thanks again.

    • I am in the same situation. Try to buy your home back with the VA loan It is easier if you do this before the fraudelent owners sell the house. Try a quiet title
      Stan

      Try to get you VA disability raised. Hire a VA attorney.

  3. Pamela Zander says:

    Timothy, the So. Calif. line is unreachable.
    I have a sale date of June 1. No substitution of trustee has been filed. UBS AG, my lender is under scrutiny of the FBI for Mortgage Fraud, Tax Fraud and Securities Fraud. I need a stay of execution. Have already typed the ex-parte and Injunciton. They have violated Respa, Tila, and did not allow me to use the notice of rescission at the start of the loan. This is a predatory lender at the worst. Violated Cov. code sec. 2923.5. Refused to talk to me by hanging up, yelled at me for asking for a statement after making a payment. Refused many, many phone calls. As soon as I filed a Notice of Non-compliance, they filed a NOD. Can’t find a lawyer who knows about all this. I am a Notary for Loan Specialist, Certified Loan Processor, Certified in Escrow II. A Forensic Audit has revealed a host of Federal Violations.

    Dear Mr. Hodges:

    I regret to inform you that we are unable to make the appointment today due to taking care of my 1 year grand-daughter as my 18 year old daughter is on her grad-night trip and also my grand-daughter falling last night and busting her lip and cheek.

    We apologize for any inconvenience of canceling the appointment may have caused on you as it was not my intention to cancel.

    We would like to thank you for taking the time to meet with us at a short notice but as you can see per our conversation that we are desperately in need of help.

    We would also ask if you would be so kind to still meet with us or if possible we can fax over the information the court had on file as we were not served with all the documents. Also, if I may ask you a question regarding the Writ of Execution and Notice to Vacate, which indicates that Judgement entered on 4/15/09 and served on us on 4/15/09 but according to the Court Trial Minute Order issued by the Judge on 4/9/09, which states “LOCKOUT STAY TO 4/23/09” yet Plaintiff served us with the Writ of Execution on 4/15/09.

    Can they do that?

    Once again we thank you for taking the time to speak with and would greatly appreciate it if you can assist us is stopping the eviction that is currently set to occur on 6/13/09.

    We can be reached at (559) 459-0783.

    Thank you so much.

      I went ahead and paid the $5.00 for this and was wondering did anybody else find errors in the document..
      Ie: is there 5 days to answer a U.D. or 1 day?
      Is it true that if there isnt a bid 2/3rds of appraised value the Auction has to be rescheduled? For the banks benefit only or the Owner’s?
      In my case 2/3> of the value would have been in my benefit because I had a large amount of equity, I want my property back anyways its just speculating..

      Hi Abby.

      I have read quite a few of your comments and your house situation, and I believe somewhere you had a easy to read step by step process article…
      I am so confused by all of this and cant find that article and I have got to file something with the court tomorrow. If you could e-mail me that link I would be grateful thank you.

  7. Leslie Marks says:

    Tim, regarding section 109(h)(3) – EXEMPTION to Consumer Credit Counseling Certification: I’ve read it and it appears to be a LIMITED EXEMPTION. In order to get this EXEMPTION you must file an emergency filing to prevent a harm – unlawful detainer, foreclosure or trustee sale. You MUST file a Declaration of Extigent Circumstances and a NOTICED MOTION regarding the Exemption. The court will determine if it will grant a permanent exemption. It is not clear if that Declaration must be filed at the time of filing or if you have 15 days to get that in. In any event, as an individual or joint debtor Credit Counselling IS required. Mental defect will get an EXCEPTION, however, it appears moot as the legal guardian should then be responsible to act on the debtor’s behalf. Please advise if my analysis is even remotely correct. Thank you so much. I wish I had all this info in 2006 when I filed my case. Thank you.

  8. Leslie Marks says:

    It should be noted there is a difference between and EXCEPTION and an EXEMPTION. I’m going to bed!

  9. Leslie Marks says:

    Thank you Tim! Is there any way to get samples of your complaints and docs? ?They appear encoded from the website. I have a unique situation I think because New Century transferred my property to OCWEN on the same day it filed chapter 11, while in active litigation with me in Fed court. I sued Ocwen. Judge determined that I had to sue New Century not Ocwen, so I am in Delaware in an adversary in the Bk court feeling like an inmate who keeps droppin the soap. (You feel me on that?) In the meantime, I filed chapter 13 locally and filed an adversary against OCWEN (and now I think I have to include DB STRUCTRED Products whom OCWEN transferred the property to and claimn is the mortgage holder. – BUT I am alleging that the initial transfer to Ocwen was MOOT so subsequent transfers invalid. Hard work – I so respect attorneys!) I have a lis pendens on my property, not in foreclosure but why wait till foreclosure? I want to wrap this up asap. Any docs you think I should review please email directly to me at blaqrubi@yahoo.com or lesliepatrice@yahoo.com. Thank you so much for this great site. I have shared with many others. Leslie Marks

  10. Abby in CA says:

    Leslie-HI, I am New Century victim too. I have had several hearings in Judge carey’s courtroom (via telephonic as I am in CA) in Delaware. Not having much success. Two weeks ago I did a Motion to Lift Stay on New Century to see if I could proceed with discovery as I did name New Century in my CA complaint.
    NO WAY. I have something which might be helpful to you. What steps did you have to take to do the adversary proceeding in NCM BKR 11? Did you file a proof of claim. They claim to have lost mine. So, I have to refile and then
    do a motion with judge carey to see if he will accept a late claim.

    I also was on the court phone and Mr. Pierre Augustin had hearing prior to mine with judge carey. He also is a NCM victim. Pierre is a very sharp pro se gentleman. Anyways, he has an adversary proc. against NCM in carey’s court.

    He and I have been emailing as we are dealing with mostly same players.
    NCM, Deutsche Bank and Chase.

    email me carra2009@gmail.com I have some information which might help you a great deal.

    • Leslie Marks says:

      Abby, I would NOT refile a claim. They would have to FIND the original claim submitted or AGREE to allow it to STAND! They “lost” it so I don’t have a claim? And now the Court has GRANTED them the right to OBJECT to that claim when you file it??? What a crock! New Century is so funky you can smell the smog in California from Delaware!

      Were you at the hearing where Judge Carrey said that New Century’s plan was Rejected but they are proceeding like it was approved? Unbelieveable! I thought I was listening to an episode of Boston Legal or some such comedy!

      I believe I was appearing telephonically on the same day as You and Mr. Augustin. I have New Century and Ocwen. Check your

    I’m under water on my home, and need a good lawyer in Oregon that total under stands on how to work with B.O.A. They are trying to give me a loan modification and its worst then ever . I had a Countrywide loan 1st and 2nd. which is now, B.O.A.. Do you no of any lawyers in Oregon, or can any lawyer from any state work with us. They just need to under stands how CountryWide screwed up and is willing to work with us. My time is short. Thank You

  16. Abby in CA says:

    Tim
    why do some banks say that in California it is not important to produce the original note?

    is there something unique to California law?

  17. Dan says:

    Tim, I looked up the lawyers in Oregon, that are on you list. We went and talked to one, he doesn’t ” GET IT ” I called the 2nd lawyer, and asked him about Neil Garfields programs, He doesn’t “GET IT”. He says he will not get involved. So I called the 3rd lawyer. His phone is disconneted. I think you need to take this guys off of your list. Question, Can a lawyer from a differant state Help us? My time is very short, looking for some one that will help us as soon as possible. Do you no any lawyer that you could personally recommend?
    Thanks

  18. Dan in Oregon says:

    I went and talked to 1 lawyer that was on you list, called the 2nd lawyer, and they don’ get it and don’t want any thing to do with it. Called the 3rd lawyer and his phone was disconnected. Why would this lawyer even be on the list? Do you personal know of any lawyer in this state that will work with us. I know we have a good case, we just need the right connections. Can he be from a differant state?
    Thanks

  19. Liz in Cal says:

    I just received a modification from AHMSI (my attorney states it is great and the best they can do.
    It is a 2% step program ; our loan is 629K and they are capitalizing 51K at the end of loan so our new loan amount is 680K (all numbers approx). Our new payment would be 3324.90 starting in Dec. Wow now that is going to kill us. Some help is what I say. The attorney is asking for 2400 for the modification. Do I have a right to decline the moficiation?
    Will show me the note be valid procedure in CA and should I send request to AHMSI?
    Do I have a right to request all communication between the attorney and Ahmsi; on our behalf
    Please help, getting so stressed and sick; we are short sale our other property because they said they would not work with us with 2 properties. That file has been closed 3 times and it will be a year since starting the process. We had multiple offers and the current one is a cash offer. DISGUSTED IN CA.. We really want to keep our home.

  20. Liz in Cal says:

    Oh I am sorry I currently did a estimate on zillow.com and it stated our home is worth 497,500 the site said to subtract 59K (this is how much it cost the lender to foreclose) so our home is 438,500 which is in the right ballpark of what some houses are going for, some even less. Can I ask and request the mortgage company to modify at that rate? According to Civil code 29236 it states they should be working with us. why don’t I see it.

  21. Abby in CA says:

    Liz in CA
    did you call Tim McCandless and talk to him?

    find his number on here.

    I think he has had many good experiences negotiating the lender to come down on the loan amount (remember, the loansters created an artificially over appraisal). Your loan amount is going up.

    Nevertheless, I’d call and talk to Tim McCandless.
    Of course, I do not know a thing about your current attorney etc.

    Have you gone onto LivingLies weblog and read any postings. It also was started by an attorney…but it is a huge site with over 1.3 million visitors now.

  22. Liz in Cal says:

    Abby thanks so much I have been searching and searching and coming us with so many sites regarding this and I am overwhelmed. I will call and see if he can help. Thanks

  23. Andy in CA says:

    Hello Timothy,

    Please give me your advice on my situation. My homeowners association, filed a lien, trustee sale, and an auction date for 9,200.00 It did not sell. When a notice was placed on my door, I had a tenant in the unit. The tenant stopped paying me the rent. I requested that he move so I could do a short sale. He said he wouldn’t move cause it was no longer my property. I wrote a hardship letter requesting an extension. It was denied. I offered a settlement, that was denied. I had personal belongings in the property that I allowed the tenant to use. Before my 90 day period was over to reclaim the property, I wanted to retrieve my belongings. The association told the tenant he would be liable to replace anything that was taken. I was told by HOA that my belongings were abandoned. They were never abandoned. The tenant did not pay me any rent but pays the Association to live there. The locks were changed. I don’t know if the tenant or the association changed the locks. I was locked out but my name is still on title. I was advised to file bankrupty to stop HOA from taking the property after the 90 day period. I filed bankruptcy, chapter 7. HOA then let me inside to retrieve my belongings. The bank has began sending me mortgage statements, it’s in foreclosure as well. I’ve been told the bank cannot interfere w/the homeowners association and I need to settle w/the association, then deal w/the bank to try to modify my loan. The tenant is still living there, it’s been over a year. He has developed a relationship with the HOA. I’ve been advised that being the HOA did not properly serve me with an eviction or notify me of locks being changed, that it is unlawful in California. I don’t know if HOA or the tenant changed the lock. I feel like I don’t have any say-so with this matter with the HOA being involved. Secondly, I don’t live there. Do I have any rights as the “title owner?” I’ve heard I have rights to the property, if so, what are they ? The tenant knows exactly what he’s doing, which is why he’s still there. Is this true ? I’ve been told to “fight” to get my house back what are my recourses? I’ve been advised to write a complain to the state attorney general. What will that do? Is the only way to get the property back it to pay the $9000, if I had it, then give the tenant a notice. It seems the HOA has superceded the bank and they are in total control. What legal rights does the tenant have although I’m on title. Please give me clarity through all the confusion. Thank you Tim

  29. jane says:

    If a home in los angeles county is in foreclosure, with an nod already filed along with a substition of trustee, does the trustee company have to refile a new substitution reflecting the new beneficiary if the beneficary has changed? My understanding is that the original sub of trustee is now incorrect since the bene’s have changed in mid foreclosure. Please share your thoughts on this. Thank you

      Wonder: would filing a Revocation of Power of Attorney, which was given to “Lender” and subsequent “Holders” when you executed your Deed of Trust, then Substitution of [your own] Trustee, work?

  30. Paul Buerer says:

    I have been looking for someone who gets it! We have a nice home in Modesto, we left several years ago and moved to Sunnyside,Wa to be close to family. We made the fatal mistake of not asking for enough money. We had a BofA loan at about 120k – borrowed 355K to payoff the first, and pay cash for the WA property. We are now probably about to go into foreclosure in Modesto – the bank has just drained us of cash, plus the mkt in Modesto has been bad. My wife and I own the property jointly, and have been told that I need to move back into the property for the next 2 years, to avoid a taxable event – either a sale, foreclosure, or short sale. It is more complicated than that, but you get the idea, We requested $$ to do floor coverings, no way – so we have a property which is not marketable,nor rentable,or livable right now. Like I said, we have very little cash left – 2 yr forebearance – possible?
    Paul Buerer

    • Angela says:

      Hello Paul,

      There are options depending on what stage of the foreclosure, what you really want to do with the home, the current difficulty you’re facing, some clarification on the things going on with the property etc.

      How can I reach you?

      HAPPY NEW YEAR!

  31. MARIO KENNY says:

    Dear Timothy:

    I am going to SO CA to help my 75 year old lady friend to save her home of 45 years, I know I will be needing your help to stop the bankster, she is not in arrears.

    You are the only lawyer I would trust in this, but gosh you must be too busy. I live in Miami at present, but I have followed your development for the past few years and I think you are the man, as a matter of fact I know you are the man for this.

    No doubt that CA has powerful lawyers, considering the size of the plunder perpetrated thus far but I do not know anyone else nor do I trust anyone else.

    I will be calling you when I get there, end of January. Happy New Year
    regards

    Dear Timothy, between your site and Neil’s it is has given me the strength to keep fighting, well it seems I am dead in the water. My husband and I are small business owners hanging on by a thread. I wanted to ask if you might be interested in taking on our case against Countrywide and all the worker bees. I have had a forensic Audit and this has produced what only states the obvious. The home was sold back to B of NY on 10/2/2007 with claims of abandonment in order to cancel the Homestead that I put on this house in 2005. The broker had lied as to his correct affiliation and he had no current license until 2007 so this adds to the weight of his fraudulent connection with Countrywide as he took our information over the phone with almost lightening speed approval, He could not have possibly found us the right lender as he went no further than That’s right Countrywide. I did not discover that had it not been for Neil and you.I would have not know the true gravity of this crime had I not been for this information THANK YOU. But i have no doubt a slam dunk case but really need a slam dunk Attorney. I am in San Bernardino county Hesperia California and right now things are not moving as I have no idea if we had gone to Federal Court or not ,as when the Attorney went south and started to demand money for retainer(which) I have no problem with, but there not Trial lawyers. we are to pay everything gas, filings and fork over 45% if we win. instead of making us go to ULD and lose,then telling us to hide from the sheriff when they come, so my husband when out takes to the key guy and we got another 5 days. But the attorney take to them and I am not sure what was said,but next we were going to file a TRO in order to have this case heard. sending another Attorney at the last minute only to “lose” the TRO, and and just minutes until sheriff evict#2, the attorney office calls and says you don’t have to move? without anything to back this reason we were told they want to settle out of court. without any documentation I don’t know what to do.We are still in the house and we need help. we did everything that was expected we did learn a hard lesson and now is its pay back time. Also I would really like to see this move back into the present and make this a reactive crime. They lied and hurt a lot of people not to mention broke the Law. I really hope this is understandable, I have gotten seriousely ill and depressed I’m already disable with many heath conditions. thanks Oh and we were also taken by foreclosure scammer.

    Mike; Great work. Its been very helpfull in understanding what these guys are trying to do. I am dealing with Wells Fargo and Ist American Loanstar Trustee. When I first saw smoke, I did the ‘ right to cancel’. Upon no response, did the’ quite claim’ and have repeatedly asked for ‘ the note’. The forclosure sale is in 1 month and has been put off once already. I have filed a claim(San Mateo, cal) and have sent claim to WF. Received their Demurr and am preparing a response in due time. Its set for feb22. However, the next sale is scheduled for feb8th. Went in for an Ex parte and they treated me like crap. I was intercepted by a court researcher clerk running interference for the judge, who literally told me i had no chance but a allowed the WF attorney present to ask me if I would put a bond for amt. owing. I said ‘ not at this time’ because accepting it would have admitted to their claim. I blew it sorta by not challenging the validity of the court and the attorney present. Won’t make that mistake next time. However……this is killing me mentally phyically and I have had cancer once allready. I will fight for what I believe in to the max, and do it myself if necessary. Can you recommend a stalwart attorney in my area ( San Mateo-ca) who will not userp my intentions and rights and who isn’t afraid of the system? Since we are in Admiralty Jurisdiction, or, a court of contract, I firmly believe that nothing but the original wet copy will suffice. Accepting defeat now would still mean paying taxs and who knows where/when and by whom the original note will surface demanding their payoff. Please help Obewan, your my only hope. Much obliged. jerry v

    ps. also, since I saw no recent recordings on my property, I decided to lease(encumber) the home to my daughter. I did this with a 5 year lease, paid in full with a , yes, u guessed it, Promissory Note, Paid in full with ‘silver coin’. This I feel has been my only ace in the hole. Also, about 3 weeks ago, I answered to their modification calls, but when I told them that I too would be recording the call, i was told ” sorry fella, can’t resume with the call if your going to record it”, I replied, “what ever happened to the goose and the gander”?!!! Sure could use professional help.jerry v

    Is there room for a class action suit for the MERS and securitize mortgage fraud?

    I am approaching a foreclouser situation (currently in negotiation on a short sale). I received a “smoking gun” letter from US Bank when I tried to modify the motgage last year. They said that they don’t own the mortgage because it had been securitized, and they could not modify the loan. If they don’t own the mortgage, then how could they have the right to foreclouse?

    If you are interested, I can send a copy of the letter.

    Thanks,

  38. david says:

    I don’t understand why the claim that a lender has violated the California Foreclosure Prevention Act is included in the lawsuit templates alleging that the plaintiff was entitled to a 6 month period between the Notice of Default and the Notice of Sale when we know that the law gave exemptions to all the loan servicers immediately after the law passed.

    Does the Pro Se litigant make allegations when he knows the defendant is legally exempt?

    • If the particular lender is exept don’t make the allegation but no lender is exempt from cc 2923.5 or cc 2932.5

      • Barbara says:

        Click to access 0.pdf

        Court in this case says 2923.5 only applies to mortgages and not deed of trust. What do you think? Do you have any other cases to refute this? Thanks

      • a mortgage is a deed of trust that’s what i think also if you read the code it also says encumbrance

        2932.5 Where a power to sell real property is given to a
        mortgagee, or other encumbrancer, in an instrument intended to secure
        the payment of money, the power

        by the assignee if the assignment is duly acknowledged and recorded.

  40. Lily of CA says:

    I was at my wit’s end when I learned on 2/2/10 that my home will be foreclosed and put on sale on March 1, after my loan modification was denied. I found out eventually that the loan modification process was botched and I really didn’t stand a chance. Then I learned of Tim McCandless Law Firm and I desperately wanted his firm to take my case…which they did after evaluating my dire situation.
    They are very good. Before they even considered my case, they studied it in detail and immediately told me how they intend to go about saving my home, what process they will take to ensure that goal, and to stay with me until my HOME IS “SAFE” FORM ANY THREATS OF FORECLOSURE AND SALE. That is what really impressed me and I thanked God for leading me to people with integrity, care and concern for the downtrodden. They beat the March 1 deadline and I am still in my home and we are still continuing the process of saving my home.

  41. Paul Buerer says:

    Angela on 1/1/10 – this is Paul – I have talked to several people in Tim’s office. A NOD was filed in mid December – have spoken to loss mitigation several times in the last week – they want me to put together a modification request – they say it is not too late. Sale date is Apr 7……..We have been seriously hurt financially – perhaps terminally. Paul

  42. MARIO KENNY says:

    Why would they give a MOD when they can make more money selling the thing at the court and collecting the swap? I would get a good lawyer and fight them to the end

  43. Nicholle Cox says:

    I was served NOD recorded on 12/11/08 on 1/7/09 filed ch13BK but BK mill botched the case and we were dismissed in 10/09. On 11/10/09 a woman showed up on my doorstep saying that she worked for the agent who bought it at the foreclosure auction the day before. I was shocked to say the least. Then on 11/13/09 we were served a 3day notice to quit the premises. The UD was filed by Deutsche on 11/20/09 and I answered with the affirmative defense that they did not perfect the title. I requested the jury trial which was set for 3/8/10. When I got there, the presiding judge kindly heard me out about the violation of 2923.5(b) & 2932.5 which should have dismissed the case. But he didn’t have the time to devote to it so he sent us to dept 13 where the judge absolutely refused to hear it. He told me I didn’t have a chance at winning because he wouldn’t allow me to bring up the title in a UD action. I had to have a local real estate attorney with 45 years experience in our area come to just argue the motions to have the limited issues surrounding the title heard. The judge was adement about not allowing it. We all argued in chambers for over an hour about it because he didn’t even know what 1161a said about the right to a limited review of title in the case of former owners being foreclosed on. He pulled out his book to look it up but it was too lengthy he said to read it at the moment. I had to settle for 90days to refinance or move out. Now I’m working on the complaint against all of them. Can you help me????? Sacramento, CA

  44. Deby says:

    Are there any grounds – constitutional, federal, etc. – that we can begin to use to force sheriff’s departments to get out of the business of evictions/sales – they are public employees – if they participate in these events and they end up being illegal – then wouldn’t that make the sheriff’s dept involved with the illegal real estate activities? I don’t believe these deputies all across America want to do what they are forced to do; don’t we as citizens come first before corporate/banking entities – it seems to me if you really want to clog the works, you stop somehow the sheriff’s departments from being involved in the first place – there’s an achille’s heel to foreclosure problems – it’s take years for the banksters to figure out how else to get their foreclosures executed, etc. If there is no one to handle the execution!

  45. Connie says:

    ATTORNEY TIMOTHY MCCANDLESS,

    Would it possible if you could show us how to VOID THE TRUSTEE
    SALE/FORECLOSURE because the Servicers didnot comply with the new CA Law SBX8 38? Since you are receiving such praise, how about a sample templete, maybe put it on $CRIBD.COM for your bloggers. It is my feeling, that this can eliminate a lot of stress. Once the Servicers/Trustees are aware that they are being sued for a min. of $10,000.00 in damages plus a voided sale, this could grab their attention. (I often wondered, are the Servicers giving the Original Lender their part of the monies that they are collecting). Homeowners/Borrowers are hurting!!! Attorneys need to step-up to the plate and start Hitting for us. We are bleeding, because we are broke from Modifications, that’s a joke!! Short Sales, well, that’s for SNL. Mortgage Fraud is rampant and the Courts are branding UD Pro Se’s like cattle and kickin us in the @#$%$. If we can just get pass that AWFUL DETAINER COURT (smile) Everything is so routine for the Courts because there is nothing NEW, well there is, The Governor signed it. You are the only Attorney in CA, as for as I am concerned, that knows this process and will challenge the Court on behalf of your clients. Something diffrent in the air, the above mentioned law. California Legislature is finally “Getting It”. As you responded: “It would appear that the new law would make clear that the borrower would have a cause of action to void the sale and collect damages. It is my opinion that existing 2923.5 does this but this clarification would be good for borrowers” Well, We all have causes of actions. Not one of these Servicers/Trustees has or will comply to this LAW and will not, because they donnot have authorization to do so. BFP perfected title never happen. LET’S FACE IT!

    GOD BLESS YOU AND EVERY CALIFORNIA MORTGAGE VICTIM AND ALL VICTIMS, EAST, NORTH AND SOUTH

    Hi Tim,

    We attended Neil’s Expert Witness workshop together. I am the third name down on the name list we all signed and I was the one sitting across the room from you at the first table recording the workshop. I was sitting to the right of Steve and Michael. I was wondering if you have a TRO/OSC that you could share with me, I need to prepare one and do not have a sample for the formatting. I have a foreclosure sale that I stopped last Friday, but the sale is reset for this Friday and I want to file for a TRO on the grounds the true Creditor is not the one that is being named the defendant in the TRO. To support that the def. is the Creditor they will have to overcome the issue that a Creditor cannot foreclose once the NOTE has been Securitized or the def. has filed false REMIC and SEC reports and is in direct violation of T26 §§§1, 860-865. You can contact me at 1-951-332-0270 or send all documents to palmdaleleon@yahoo.com. Thank you for your time Tim concerning this issue. Sincerely, Leon PS. “Please do not publish this e-mail”

  52. Denise says:

    Dear Tim,I am dealing with three different law firms. one is handling the Civil,the other is retained for the UD matter, and the third for the current civil matter. we have never received anything from the lawyer we retained back in 02/09 the son has made repeated and reckless and destructive decisions that have caused extreme stress,causing us to be completely unaware of that another eviction was on the way. When we contacted them we had placed several calls with no response until few days ago. My husband had no better luck with getting a decent answer as to the lack communication along with the badgering of money. we have been lied to and bullied as to the true facts of what they were doing with this case. I will be filling a complaint with the Bar as to the treatment and what unprofessional way we were left hanging with no legal representation, we were not even sent a letter of dismissal, We were told that a retainer of 3200. and it changed to 3200.00 all expenses and 40% contingency, I feel as if they are working for Countrywide money! money! we have given most of there retainer but have ta Well at this point I am so exhausted and disabled living in chronic pain I am feeling very defeated. If there is any hope for damage control we have a 6am eviction wake up call, I would appreciate the help. thank you and we wish the best for everyone. a huge thank you to Tim for all you have done. Denise in Calif

  53. Abby says:

    Denise
    I am not sure what day is your 6am eviction. But…if it is not over the weekend or on monday….you may have a bit of a chance to buy more time in the home.

    Go to your county clerk and see if you can apply (& you have to pay daily rent) for the extension. I had a friend who did this several times and was able to stay in the home for 45 days more. I don’t know all the particulars, but you have to have the cash to pay. Try to pay ahead for a good length of time.

    Also, realize that you can file an appeal, but an attorney has to hurry to do this. I have no knowledge of your case or the date the writ was issued…probably several weeks ago. It might be that the time for an appeal has been missed, but you need to talk to an attorney asap.

    Can you call Tim? He is one of the best for these situations. Last number I had for him 760-951-3663

    Also, I believe he now has an office in Martinez CA.

    ps – I am not an attorney but am relaying what I did in my UD. I filed my major Fraud, TILA, predatory lending case in Sup Ct of Ca. Next, I did a Motion to Consolidate the UD with the Fraud case and the UD judge did that.
    So, no further UD until fraud case is finished.

    Always consult a competent attorney.

  58. Nicholle Cox says:

    I’m completely distraught!!! I just returned from the courthouse for an ex pate hearing to try and get a stay of judgment for possession of our home that has been in the family over 40yrs. Deutsche Bank retained McCarthy & Holthus from San Diego but they sent a local lawyer named Terry Brewer. She didn’t even have a copy of the moving papers that I had sent to M&H. Once again the judge didn’t want to hear it cuz he said it was too late to consolidate and he said that i had the wrong papers for a stay of judgment. I used the one I got from this site but made necessary changes.

    My question is this, If I filed the wrong papers, what are the right papers to file??? I’m supposed to be out June 9th.

    Anybody who can help, please reply. I’m desperate!!!

  59. Connie says:

    Well, Attorney Timothy, The BILL IS PASSED ( SB 1275) BY THE SENATE NOW WE ARE READY FOR THE TEMPLATE, LET’S GET BUSY!!

  62. Dave says:

    My loan is with Bank of America and my home is scheduled to be sold on the 8th. A modification has been submitted, and per the underwriter it is scheduled to be completed on the 19th! The Bank does not want to extend the sale date per my last conversation with them.

    Should the sale go through on the 8th, do I really have 3 days to leave? It was my understanding it would be longer than three days.

    How do I make them from continuing with the sale date or at least move it to accomidate the Modification?

  63. Abby in CA says:

    Dave–I don’t know what state you are in. If in Calif. once the trustee’s sale is completed they will post a 3 Day Notice to Quit on your property.

    Disclaimer: I am not an attorney nor offering legal services or advice.

    This is what happened to me: i found 3 day notice to quit scotch taped to my front door. i did not move. Next, a process server was trying to serve me with Unlawful Detainer lawsuit (eviction lawsuit). If you are served the papers you only have 5 days to ‘answer’ and by answer, I mean go to courthouse and file a legal paper (check your county court website and there may be a form ‘answer’. If you DO NOT do the answer in 5 days, a writ will be issued and then, typically 5-10 days later you will be evicted.

    You should try to get an attorney right now!! If you want to talk to TIM, you should find his phone number and get going.

    DO NOT wait. It is far better to prevent the foreclosure.

    Have you considered filing a bankrupcty case? If done prior to foreclosure sale that will stop everything (depending on type of bankrupcty–if Chpt 7, then stop foreclosure maybe 3-4 months)…so call up a bankruptcy attorney right now too and learn about it!!

    In bankruptcy the lender (BofA) might be more willing to re-negotiate with you on your loan or complete the mod.

    Always consult a competent attorney. You need to act fast!! Do not trust BofA and the dates. They want your house.

  64. Mawarku says:

    Abby;

    Are you able to negotiate with your bank ? Is Tim representing you? Is there any class action lawsuit on MERS’s loans? I heard the news is that NV has a class action against MERS.

  65. Abby in CA says:

    Mawarku-suggest you go to LivingLies Weblog and start reading. You will find the Nevada case posted there and also it is in scribD.

    I’ve spoken to Tim prior, and he is helpful. I am pro se. You would need to call his office for his retainer and his ongoing fees.

    I think you will learn from LivingLies that many, many have tried negotiation with banks and to no avail or with minimal relief. Be careful, and again I do not know your facts, who your loan originator was etc., but sometimes when you do a loan mod…you will relinquish all future rights to sue for fraud, TILA violations etc.

    I did not have any resources nor even was aware that my loan originator Home123 Corp (New Century) was a predatory lender and had committed fraud upon me….I did not know about LivingLies….I did not believe I had any recourse from foreclosure—-SO—my home was sold at a trustee sale in the summer of 2008–HOWEVER, once I saw the 3 Day Notice to Quit scotch taped to my front door, I decided I would see what I might be able to do…..it has been a constant learning curve.

    I am STILL in my home!! I fought off the Unlawful Detainer, filed a fraud-TILA-predatory lending complaint in Calif. Superior Court and am still in litigation.

    If you do not retain an attorney, you can pretty much make it your full time job—defending your home.

    DISCLAIMER: I am not an attorney and not offering legal advice or services. Always consult a competent attorney.

    You can also read my posts in LivingLies–they go way back.

  66. Mawarku says:

    Abby;

    Thank you so much for your reply. I just starting to read and digest the foreclosure defense area. I cannot afford to pay expensive legal fees because I lost too much in the depreciated real estate market. By reading the webpage, I know that Countrywide is the worst predatory lender in the business. I have to defend myself as a pro-se. How do you starting the fraud-TILA-predatory complaint in CA? Are you able to use Tim’s template?

    Any assistance in searching the right information is sincerely appreciated.

    Keep up the fight and I will not give up.

    JURY TRIAL ON A CA UD

    Hello Tim and all,

    I am in a foreclosure related UD in California. My lawyer has secured a jury trial for me. We are going to challenge the issue of posting of foreclosure notices based on our right to challenge title in the UD action. So far the court while openly hostile, appears reluctantly willing to hear the argument.

    We are in negotiations and discovery with HSBC (the Trustee’s) attorneys. What questions should we be asking with regard to the trustee sale that the bank’s attorneys will not want to answer. We’re trying to get them to reinstate the loan with a reasonable modification.

  68. LAURIE MENDOZA says:

    hi and thank-you for your web site. i am dealing with the 3 w’s. world, wachovia, wells fargo. world war 3. anyway the trustee sale was scheduled for april 13, 2010. when wells fargo’s attorney posted the 3 day get out i found outt that the trustee sale was on april 14, 2010. then i got served with the unlawful detainer on may 11, 2010. unlawful detainer was filed on may 6, 2010. i filed my answer by may 17, 2010. somewhere around june 18th i called the courts to see what was happening. i was told a motion to strike portions or all of my answer was being filed. i got the motion in the mail on 21st of june. i found tim’s oppession to motion to strike so i used his templet. the hearing was held on july 6, 2010. the judge granted the motion to strike. the argument wells fargo attorney didn’t want my exbibits entered which were copy of the notice of default, copy of the substitution of trustee which was filed 1 month after the notice of default, a copy of the trustee sale showing the trustee sale was set for april 13, 2010. copy of my deed and note. attachments which i stated facts and cited civil code procedures. i was all thrown out out out the door. i haven’t paid mortgage since september 2008 when FTB audited me. i had my own business as a skip tracer process server. all which has gone out the door too cause now my health is so poor due to stress im on SSDI. on my loan documents the brocker inflated my wages that is why FTB audited me. then the appraiser got the boot kick for his false appraisals. the sacramento sheriff real estate fruad division checked my documents and found irregularities. the detective suggested do go state or federal because my real issues are my lender and the brocker. i called tim’s office ater i filed the opposition. a real kind man called me back and said i needed to file to switch courts. the argument also in UD court was you could not argue title in a unlawful detainer proceedings.
    i got the order granting the granted motion to strike in the mail this past saturday july 10, 2010. when i was reading the order i noticed some man by the name of JIM MOORE, authorized agent for plaintiff wells fargo. WHO IN THE *&%# is jim moore. he wasn’t at the table with the attorney and myself before the judge/comississoner. so i went to the secretary of state web site to see if he is a agent for service of process. nope. hes not. i dont know who jim moore is but i know one thing he has never been on any of thepaper work for summons and complaint, 3 day get out, motion to strike and proposed order. so how can he be on an order period?
    where am i at now with all this? well i want to go back to court and request the order to be re-thought and get jim moore off the order but i dont know how to do this. as a matter of fact im growing tired and weary. when they come to put me out of my home that my father built in 1959 i will be homeless. i will live out of my car. this is a prretty scary thought for me. i am almost 59 and never been homeless. i guess i better learn how to layer my clothes and push a shopping cart. very, very scary.

  70. Edith Long says:

    Atty McCandless,
    How can we refile our case for reconsideration after dismmissal of the case as ordered by the Judge on grounds of non compliance to judicial decision to start paying the mortgage payment while waitin for the completion of trial of which was the reason why we filed a complaint. The complaint was filed after receiving copies of signed loan documents which we were demanding from the time escrow closed without our presence and the proceeds was deposited to our bank accounts. We were
    assured by the mortgage broker everything was alright and
    everthing is okey. My uncle was 69 years old, very honest and trustworthy and always try hard to help spread the words of God, so he always prays everthing would turn right. But between you and me, it doesnt happen that way. Being with him as a witness, I know we are a victim of mortgage fraud. We refuse to continue paying after receiving signed documents a year after closing and settlement. The loan we are paying for was not the right loan we applied and signed for. Good Faith Estimate was not disclosed to us shows the right interest rate, but different loan number, and was signed a month earlier than the date it was printed from the computer. Deed of
    Trust has a prepayment rider added, Note has a adjustable rate rider. There was 2 Hud 2 estimated settlement coast with two different figures that was not signed by the barrower, Loan Apllications was not signed by the barrower
    pre-funding transmittal was not fill out and signed by the barrower showing interest was manually crossed out and changed to higher interest rate. The rest of the documents including deed of trust, the note etc. seemed to have signature of the barrower by copy and paste feature. We dont have any idea between the Mortgage broker, notaryand escrow officer who closed the loan commiteed the fraud a but one thing I swear the escrow officer who closed the escrow was the loan officer whom we told to leave our property when she was trying to persuade my Uncle into the wrong mortgage loan. Mortgage Broker sent another agent a month after to initiate the loan applications and disclosures of which we knew was the right loan we applied for and was supposed to be advised for the place date and time for closing. Escrow closed and settled without our presence and my Uncle was given assurance by the Mortgage Broker that everything was perfectly fine and the proceeds was electronically wired to my Uncle’s bank Account. Ten days after were demanded to make a deposit by the Mortgage broker to a certain bank account to payoff the property tax of which was one of the reason for refinance. I start using my Power of Attorney to act for my Uncle to start asking questions, calling and asking for copies of signed loan documents lender alleged was signed by the barrower. For the meantime, we start making payments to the assignee who sent us the first statement of which was not the assignee iindicated on any of the loan documents. In good faith we are paying the obligation for a year while waiting for the
    copies of the signed loan documents of which the alleged assignee wont cooperate at the time the problem was brought to their attention. It took a year for them to finally
    send something in the mail for us to confirm that we are paying on a wrong mortgage loan of which we have any knowledlge until upon receiving these documents.
    We have been going thru few attorneys that took our case but then after paying for the time they consumed in the case, they decide to withdraw because they are loan modification lawyers not a real estate litigation attorneys.
    Finally, After another six months, another attorney took our case, took another three months before filing the complaint to seek justice and present our case to the court
    I believed our previous attorney did not represent our case
    for the best interest of the barrower because nothing was submitted to the opposing party when they asked for documents to support our alligation of fraud, had failed to fallow up defaults, ammend the complaint to include and name companies and person involved in the first amended complaint, subpoena closing documents from the Title Company that was supposed to be used on the Trial and
    Act in behalf of the barrower without notifying the barrower or Attorney of Fact, like admmission of Plaintiff by the opposing counsel. We felt we are the one being sued because the opposing Counsel was asking for information and what our Attorney done was filed for continuance of hearing. A dismissal was granted to the dependants but based on the documents we provided with the opposition for the motion to dismiss. dependant denied
    dismissal without prejudice. During the 3 months of denial was granted, nothing was done by the attorney but file Stipulation on Continuance of Hearing (January thru March 2010. On April 6, 2010 a hearing was scheduled that was a Judicial Decision to make payment pending completion of trial scheduled on August 30, 2010. We requested the attorney to file a motion to petition amount to be paid based on the actual amount of the property of which we lost equity due to this fraudulent transaction involving the lender and the claimed now assignee of whom we are making payments.
    Now our complaint was being dismissed again, what is necessary to file a motion for consideration. There was an open investigation under the State Attorney General’s Office, Consumer Protection Bureau involving the Mortgage broker that grant the loan to us and officially open a case in our behalf because of this reason. Please advise how to present our case and file a motion for consideration.

    Hi Timothy, I filed a wrongful foreclosure suit against my bank in early summer, but I know longer wish to continue with the suit. If I dismiss the case, could/would (is it common) that the bank could counter sue? We’ve not gone to court or anything like that. They have also, name me in a Unlawful Detainer suit as well.
    Thanks for your response.

    dear mr. mccandless,
    could you please answer my question? when wells fargo foreclosed on me what happen to my grant deed that my mom signed to me in 1995? is it wiped out?
    thank you
    laurie mendoza

    • When you signed the trust deed you effectively transferred your title that is to say the title you got from your mom to the trustee
      And if you failed to make the payments the trustee could then transfer the title to the lender upon instruction the trustee to foreclose hold the sale and by Trustees deed tranfer the title to whom ever bids at the sale

  73. LAURIE MENDOZA says:

    hi mr. mccandless,
    another question re: grant deed. the house did not sell at the auction so now wells fargo has recorded a trustee’s deed upon sale. should wells fargo be recording something else like a grant deed? also in 2004 i changed my name on the grant deed my mom signed to me. at that point i created another grant deed. so when i signed the deed of trust that wiped out that grant deed also?
    also i have been reading about warrenty deeds and grant deeds. what about if only my family has owned this property. something about a plat map. and doesn’t a deed of trust only secure the loan but does not secure the land. i’m probley confused. but that is normal for me. i’m headed out today to file my amended answer at the unlawful detainer court. so far this is what has happen. plaintiff attorney filed summons and complaint. defendant which is me filed answer to summons and complaint. plaintiff filed motion to strike portions of defendants answer. that was due to my exhibits which were copies of the notice of default, substitution of trustee which was filed over a monthe after notice of default and then a exhibit of trustee sale which was to be on the april 13th but was held on 14th. the comissioner granted motion to strike without leave to amend. 4 days later i got the order in the mail along with another plaintiff name added to the order. i trotted down to unlawful detainer court here in sacramento and i found that the order had been amended twice. one of the order listed the exhibits that were pleaded in the motion to strike. the other amended order was leave to amend answer. in the mail on monday i got the amended order which stated i had till the 21st to amend the answer. less than 2 days to amend a answer. i got the amended answer done along with declaration of affirmative defense. then i did a motion to dismiss along with defendants memorandum to motion to dismiss. i based the motion to dismiss on the amended orders. i based the amended answer on 1161a ccp. im not a tenant i do nto have a tenant landlord relationship with the plaintiff there has been no verbal or written agreement regarding rent or a lease. my water has been shut off and no garbage pick up. i got a citation from code enforcement because im cleaning out 50 years worth of memories in this home. you know mr. mccandless plaintiff attorney seems a little frustrated with me. i guess hes use to filing these ud’s and counts on a easy win. hopefully i have made an impression in his mind.
    thank you mr. mccandless for your support and if you know how to attack the grant deed send it this way. this pitbull hopefully can handle it.
    sincerely,
    laurie mendoza

  74. LAURIE MENDOZA says:

    thank you

    Mr. Mccandless, I have a couple of questions. When we signed our deed of trust, note, GFE, Hud-1 and application at closing we also had to initial the bottom of each page of the DT and note even though there were no lines for it. the closing inst. required it, so the gal said everything in the inst. had to be done. Well, after sending 11 QWR in the last 2 years, I got an answer, copies of the note, td, hud-1 and application. the note and td do have our signatures and a recorders stamp on right side of first page, plus a second bar code stamp that is right under, almost attached to the recorders stamp and looks to be writing was done under it. The note and td did not have our initials the hud-1 and app do not have our signatures. The hud-1 escrow officers signature and dating in no way matches my copy….even a 5 year old could see the difference it. the app has no ones signature, and the copy i have has the brokers signature and was faxed to lender and escrow office..I have the faxed copy dated 2 days before closing. Well, I went down the recorders office and got a copy of the dt first page…it does not have the extra bar code, no extra writing, and no initials… Would this be a normal way to handle a dt and what about all the missing initials and signatures.
    Thanks

    hi mr. mccandless,
    i just read on line, not on your site but another site, where it said “amortgage is not a home loan”. the statement i’m questioning is this. “when a mortgage is used for security, foreclosure must usually progress through the court system. that type of foreclosure is called a judcial foreclosure”. also it reads “a mortgage is a document creats a lien on the property, which serves as a lenders security for the debt. ” now here is the part about title. i left a coment re: grant deed. this next statement is where i was at with the grant deed and it reads” iven if your loan is secured by a mortgage, you still have full title to the property . no one else has rights of ownership. I did not buy this property i refinanced. and the lender and i created a deed of trust which states in this article i read that in most cased a deed of trust is created for a refi. but the lender who was world now wells fargo proceeded with a non-judicial foreclosure.
    can you shed some light here for me
    thank you

    I suggest you take a look at this important information

    Yellow-dots-of-mystery on your original “Promissory Note and Mortgage”

    I know in the non judicial states the notes never make it to the court house, as I understand from my friends, but consider this if you will.

  81. Hi

    I am an award winning filmmaker who wants to make THE documentary about this-

    Warclosure: The American Scheme

    Anyone interested in being interviewed- email me @ Film@Revolutionist.com

    BUT…

    I have a question…

    I was fighting my own foreclosure by Chase Pro Se for last 2 years- and last week…

    They withdrew the Complaint!

    Not a forged affidavit- the whole 2 year old action…

    Now I know that it is without prejudice so they can re file but…

    1/ if reviling was option why stop case? Just amend- right?

    2/ is this common? Have I, dare say, won the battle? Quiet title is the war…

    3/ Timothy, need to hear details? They also refused to comply with Discovery… Long story…

    But I am quite happy- we were scheduled to go to trial next week!

    Wild!

    Keep fighting!!!

    Tim I need help now. Our home was foreclosed on 3/29/10. Unlawful detainer was served, answered and denied. We were in the middle of loan mod application with Wachovia, had an attorney working on it with us, and Wachovia foreclosed but continued to ask for paperwork for the loan mod. We are suing to get our home back. I need to know what code covers the time frames for postponements. Our foreclosure was postponed four times. I keep finding information that says after the third time Wachovia needed to submit another Notice of Sale. I’m trying to file a lis pendens but need the information. Any ideas? Our home is now in escrow and I don’t want a third party to get it before we prevail in court. Help!
