A Forensic Loan Audit in Commercial Real Estate
Experts are discovering that 80 percent of mortgage Mortgage issued during the prosperous years of 2002 to 2006 contain serious violations of federal and state laws. These violations may result into substantial penalties for the lender, such as being forced to return all interests that have been paid by the property owner since the start of the Mortgage. Moreover, the lender would not be able to enforce the conditions stipulated in the Mortgage agreement, such as a foreclosure.
If the foreclosure process has already been started, the lender will be ordered to put it on hold while the litigation on the questionable provisions of the Mortgage is still unresolved. In addition, the property owner does not need to pay the mortgage installments during the litigation process, although it is often suggested that the property owner should be ready with these payments by depositing them into a separate bank account.
To determine if such violations are present in a Commercial real estate Mortgage, the property owner usually hires a forensic Mortgage audit expert who will go through the various Mortgage documents with a fine tooth comb. After the audit is completed, a report of the violations is presented to the property owner, if there are any. This report will specify the laws and regulations that have been violated.
These findings could be used by the property owner when requesting for a Mortgage Workout. A Mortgage Workout may be the solution to preventing a foreclosure if the property owner is no longer capable of coming up with the mortgage installments. With the violations that carry stiff penalties for the lender, the property owner can present a strong case for the approval of the application of a Mortgage Workout.
It should be noted that another factor in favor of the property owner is the impending crisis in Commercial real estate Mortgage. With sales in Commercial real estate virtually non-existent, banks would find it very difficult to find a buyer for the properties that they will repossess. Thus, they would also be averse to the prospect of a foreclosure.
Because the various transactions for the Mortgage Workout are complex, the property owner may then obtain the services of a loss mitigation expert, who will be responsible for making the necessary negotiations with the lender. This professional will make the preliminary contact with the lender to determine if there is a possibility for a negotiation. If the lender agrees, then the expert proceeds with the negotiations until both parties reach an agreement.
