NEWS AND EVENTS
FORECLOSURE RESCUE FUND PREVENTION ACT OF 2008
Effective October 1, 2008 this statute requires that a Foreclosure Rescue Consultant ( a person who tries to arrange a new payment plan with a lender or other alternative to foreclosure ) provide a written agreement to the consumer and obtain the consumer's signature before beginning any services. Those services include any service related to "stopping, avoiding or delaying foreclosure proceedings concerning residential real property" or "curing or otherwise addressing a default or failure to timely pay with respect to a residential mortgage loan obligation". The legislation further requires the Rescue Consultant to include in the written agreement a specific notice of the homeowners' right to cancel, including the procedure for cancelling, and a disclosure that the consumer should contact his or her lender first before signing.

ListHub - Did You Know?
Did you know that you can have leads generated from the property pages delivered right to the listing agent?
Here's how:
Log in to your ListHub account, click on 'settings' and then click on 'property page'. You will see a field called 'override email'.
If you enter an email address in this override email field all of the "Leads" from the property page will go to the address you enter. If you prefer that the leads go directly to the listing agent leave this field blank and the system will send the "Lead" to the listing agent email address found in the MLS system. If for some reason there is no listing agent email address shown with the listing, the ListHub system will send the "Lead" to the Brokerage Contact email address. Simple as that!
