CAr is completely self-serving. They are so desperate to preserve their commissions, they are actually sponsoring a bill in the California legislature to keep them.
C.A.R. Sponsoring Bill Preventing Foreclosures with Approved Short Sales
The California Association of Realtors (C.A.R.) announced its sponsoring a bill that will prevent California homeowners from going into foreclosure if they have negotiated a short sale with their lender or servicer.
Assembly Bill 1745 (Torres, D-Pomona) prevents lenders or servicers from recording a notice of sale if a short sale has been approved.
The bill is scheduled for hearing on April 30 by the Assembly Banking and Finance Committee.
The bill would also allow the mortgagee, trustee, beneficiary, or authorized agent to withdraw a short sale approval if a condition in which approval was granted has changed. The bill would require a written notice to the seller no less than 3 days before withdrawing approval, with an explanation of the decision change.
California Attorney General Kamala D. Harris recently introduced her Homeowner Bill of Rights, one of which had a similar provision that prevents dual tracking, or the practice in which a lender proceeds with a foreclosure on a homeowner who is also trying to pursue a loan modification.
Legislators delayed voting on the bill last week before Harris was scheduled to testify. ABC News 10 reported that the California Bankers Association opposed the ban on dual tracking stating it only delays the inevitable.
CAr is short sighted as well. What this bill would do, if passed, would be to make lenders hesitant to approve short sales. It will have the opposite effect of what CAr intends. They are so stupid it boggles the mind.
