Mortgage modification not processed correctly by bank...

This is a long timeline, so I'll shorten it as possible.

We took the 2020 Covid forbearance on our mortgage with Flagstar bank. In March of 2022 we signed the new modification and partial claim.

Flagstar told me it was rejected, but it was signed by all parties and recorded at the county clerks. For months I tried to get them to update the account. In July they send me a new modification to sign with a $200 increase to my payment. I didnt sign it because I knew we already signed and agreed to the previous modification in March but the bank is saying it is rejected, it was not.

July they say I am no in foreclosure and will not accept payments. I am told to fill out a new assistance application and start the process over. I do that and then they must have realized their error and my account updates, but now since they have not accepted any payments since June because they said I was erroneously in Foreclosure, which I wasnt, I am basically right back in foreclosure status.

Also, they way the calculated some escrow advances of 20k I can not do the reinstatement even though I have enough for the back payments. I should be about 6k in payments to catch up but the reinstatement is about 40k.

Does anyone know if I get a payment plan if it will just be for the back payments or will they make me pay these "advances" to escrow, which make no sense.

Also, in general has anyone had anything similiar since trying to recover frome covid forebearance?

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...

Co-signing as non-primary resident - effect on size of required downpayment & first time home buyer status?

Contemplating co-signing on a house with my mom and splitting the mortgage payment. I currently have a significantly higher income and much better credit than her. I'm looking at potential home costs and related downpayments but have difficulty using some of the online estimators. From my perspective, this would be somewhat of an investment purchase (I intend to stay in my current location in a different state and contribute to the mortgage), however, for my mom, this would be a primary residence. For purposes of the downpayment size and the type of mortgage arrangement, would it be an investment property or a primary residence? Many thanks for any help. submitted by /u/piercalicious [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/km4hvl/cosigning_as_nonprimary_resident_effect_on_size/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
