Freddie Mac Sells Third Non-Performing Loan Bundle of 2015. Team Thayer Official. #Foreclosure #REO #Bankownedhomes


Freddie Mac has sold its third bundle of seriously delinquent single-family mortgage loans of 2015 via auction, according to an announcement from Freddie Mac on Tuesday afternoon.

The winning bidder was LSF9 Mortgage Holdings, LLC. The sale included 1,052 non-performing loans serviced by Ocwen Financial with an aggregate unpaid principal balance (UPB) of $201 million. The loans were offered for sale in a single pool. The loans were sold on May 21 and the transaction is expected to close in July.
The cover bid price, which was the second highest bid, fell in the mid-70s percent of the UPB for the pool of loans. The weighted average BPO was 93 percent, average loan size was $191,177, and the note rate was 5.28 percent, according to Freddie Mac.
The deeply delinquent status of the loans, which are three years delinquent on average, indicates that the borrowers have already been evaluated for or are in some stage of loss mitigation, or are in some stage of foreclosure. Twenty-nine percent of the loans in the pool were loans that were modified that later became delinquent.
Advisors on the transaction were Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Wells Fargo Securities, and Castle Oak Securities. Freddie Mac began marketing the pool of NPLs on April 28 to potential bidders that included non-profits, minority- and women-owned businesses, neighborhood advocacy funds, and private investors.
Winning bidders and their servicers must meet the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA)'s NPL sale guidelines announced on March 2, which include approval by and good standing with government housing agencies (Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, and the Federal Housing Administration); evaluating borrowers for eligibility in the government's Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP); and applying a "waterfall" of resolution tactics before resorting to foreclosure.
The Standard Pool Offering NPL sale announced Tuesday was Freddie Mac's third of the year and fourth overall since the first sale occurred in July 2014. The first three sales totaled approximately $1.97 billion in UPB. The previous NPL sale by Freddie Mac, completed on March 25, was its largest bulk NPL sale ever – it included nearly 5,400 loans totaling $985 million in UPB.

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...

HELOCs Are A Viable Funding For Investors! Team Thayer #realestate #realtor #housing #market #investor #news #oregom

The evolution of real estate investing has made financing easier to find than ever before. However, that doesn’t mean investors should rush into anything without minding their own due diligence. Simply finding a loan and receiving approval is by no means the only barrier separating an investor from acquiring an additional subject property; there are terms, rates, and a litany of other things to consider. What’s more, there are several types of loans made available to investors, each of which has their own unique distinctions. For the sake of today’s article, I wanted to discus whether or not  home equity lines of credit  (HELOCs) are a viable source of funding for investment properties. That said, it’s worth noting exactly what a  HELOC  is: For what it’s worth, HELOCs are not all that different from your standard credit card. However, whereas the most common credit cards have no collateral, HELOCs use your home as collateral. Accordingly, HELOCs coincide wi...
