Forclosure & Modification Counseling?

Kyle Clark

If you were to offer a counseling service to distressed homeowners are there any licenses or approvals you need to obtain? I ask because theres been some news stories about people offering these services taking advantage of people. Also a realtor told me its illegal to profit off of people by stepping them through the loan mod process, I think perhaps thats just for realtors though...I got someone whos done dozens of these home mods if any of you are concerned, I say this because I know theres always someone who will jump on you lol...

If theres no regulation, how would I charge for the service? Just get a payment processor that can run card not present transactions and get their card number?

Thanks.
