Sherry Byrne Plans for Dodd Frank?

Joe talking about some sting of an insured banking institution is a conspiracy, you are not a regulator or law enforcement official, citizens may not take it upon themselves to catch any infraction of law or bait any lender into any such activity.I doubt very much that Joe would try to find if a bank was in compliance for the fun of it, it's much more believable that not only would he do it for some self satisfaction (evidenced by his remarks here toward banks and regulators) but also for some financial gain in some settlement of such an issue.Conspiring with any mortgage applicant who knowingly attempts to gain any financial benefit, including attempts to obtain any loan that is not in good faith, true and an honest application, can be conspiracy to commit bank fraud.I'd say not only should you forget that idea but stop talking about it, but you do what you like.I have now gone far and above my civic duty attempting to keep Joe Gore out of trouble. :)

(This is what I use in California) The concept is to keep the fact that the property has been transferred private.The sales transaction remains unrecorded i.e. the deed is not recorded or the contract of sale or the financing agreement.The transaction is maintained in the records of a settlement /escrow management companyEnough documentation is recorded to protect the seller and buyer in the chain of title without making the fact that the property was transferred public record Existing loans, taxes, insurance are paid by the buyer into a collection account, which in turn pays all the accounts required to service the propertyRecording a deed or contract is not required in most states to make a valid transferNot disclosing the new sale to the underlying lender is not illegal in most statesKeeping the transfer from the lender is not a crime or against the law.
