Her attorney advised her to sign this contract? What was he thinking? You've never made a financial decision you're later regretted? Especially at a closing, where you're faced with a stack of documents to sign and a bunch of people wanting to just get done. If you're the one that reads every document thoroughly in closings, you're the exception.

I understood that it was her understanding that there was a mistake, not attorney's suggestion "to sign and get it fixed later". However, if an attorney advised her to go ahead and sign and then fix it later, how come his/her name is not mentioned in the article? I think he has done more damage than the person who falsified the paperwork. It's an attorney's job is to represent the client; and if he didn't do it - he should have been sued as well.

"Thomas soon learned that her loan was at 10.625 percent interest, with a monthly payment of roughly $4,600, well above the $3,000 she was expecting. She signed the contract anyway, at the urging of her attorney at the time, figuring it was an honest mistake and Wells Fargo would correct it."


I think she knew that it smelled bad and - remember - no one twisted her arms. She signed the paperwork despite her own acknowledgement that it was wrong or even fraudulent - is she at all responsible for getting this mortgage?..... Any contributory negligence?.... Remember, she is not an uneducated person who lived all her life on top of the mountains and then decided to get a mortgage without reading the papers...........

perhaps it would make sense to create a forum for Roth IRA/IRA investing?

I first looked into BP's articles on wholesaling and since I didn't fine any, I posted link to another resource. :oops:
