In getting ready for the Rehab Workshop I am going to be teaching on the 16th, I pulled out my outline from the last few times I taught the class and I have found that over the years, the workshop has changed to the point that I think we are almost back to the original version in some cases and still finding a new perspective on others. Finding Deals On the first time around as well as for most of the other times the workshop has been taught we focused on finding bank owned REO properties. This was easy as you could have a Realtor pull up a list, go look at them and buy them in a fairly short time. The competition for Bank Owned homes, the really good ones has always been fairly aggressive and I have been known to bid more than list price in an effort to acquire a property. But today, we see banks foreclosing less and homeowners as well as investors fighting for the properties, making the REO route very tough. Todays, investor has to work a bit harder to find the best deals from the REO agents, as well as the local wholesale investor, and even their own marketing campaigns to get the sellers calling them. Funding the Deals When we started with this workshop, there were not a lot of avenues to fund a purchase and rehab. Most people either had an abundance of cash, had a home equity line of credit or might have found some local bank willing to fund the purchase and rehab. Fast forward to 2006 and 2007, we talked a lot about Private Funding and Hard Money or Rehab Lenders who would fund purchase and rehab up to 65 to 70% of the rehab. In the slow years of 2010 to 2012, the banks just stopped lending and most hard money / rehab lenders stopped lending. Banks closed out lines of credit and we were left with only our own cash or private lenders. As I brush off my notes, I can tell you that the local banks are coming back with rehab funding as well as the Hard Money Lenders. There are more people at the REIA meetings letting you know they have funds to be your private lender and even a few banks are back in the mix of offering funding for purchase and rehab.

Rehab The items that need to be fixed on the houses has been fairly consistent over the years. We have seen that prices on a some of the high end items has came down, allowing us to put granite counters in much more often, and our colors might be a bit different. However, you do need to have your exit strategy in mind when determining what to fix. You need to decide if you are fixing the house to be a rental for a few years. If you are fixing it to retail it or, maybe, fixing the hard stuff and leaving the easy stuff for the bargain shopper. Funding for the End Buyer Way back when I started we did not have a lot of options for the buyers: conventional financing with 10 to 20% down and in a very few cases FHA financing. So back in the early days we did learn a lot about Lease Options and Contract for Deed. Fast forward to 2007 and 2008 and just about anybody who could sign their name could get a loan to buy a house with up to 105% financing. . . CRAZY! Then the housing bubble burst, in part due to all the crazy sub-prime lending and we went back to needing 10 to 20% down on conventional and 30% down on investor purchases. The highlight was that FHA continued to crank out loans, although, this time they had lending standards to meet. When we add in all the people who lost homes to foreclosure over the past few years, we end up with a huge class of people who are good qualified buyers, but because of the foreclosure or short sale, cannot currently get financing, this brings us to offering Seller Financing to get our buyers funding. Anyway you slice it, Real Estate is always changing and there is never a dull moment! The cycles go up and down, the key is to be able to adapt as the markets change. I can’t wait to see a few of you at my Rehab Workshop on Saturday March 16th. —- Donald Tucker

Duncan Wierman Real Estate Investor Internet Marketer How You Can Fix It : 10 Reasons You Will Never Generate A Lead Through Social Media There are tons of articles on the subject of social media and how its being used to generate leads. Many people are saying that they are not getting results. When I teach social media marketing to students, I teach them that it is not a one-size-fits-all-instant-cure and I don’t hype social media is the be all and end all to generating leads. 1. Understand what Social Media really is. You’re working so hard to find “leads” that you can’t see the forest through the trees. Everyone that you come in contact with isn’t a lead, they’re a human being and they want to be treated like one, not as a potential stack of money. Social Media is about building relationships. If you’re not looking to build relationships, then you shouldn't be participating. 2. You Don’t Play By The Rules. There are social etiquette rules. The same way that not smiling while extending a hand to shake upon meeting someone new can ruin your chances of making a friendly impression, so can failing to follow simple social media etiquette. I always recommend that you establish at least a month of social participation on social networks before promoting a business agenda. But most importantly you need to understand the harm in spamming. Nothing will degrade your sincerity and ‘friend’ value quicker that thoughtless self-promotion in the public forum. 3. Your Audience Is Limited. Many people are getting caught up in a numbers game; measuring their success by how many followers/fans they have compared to their competition. It is so common to see real estate investors pitch themselves in Investor centric groups and fan pages. The result of this is that these same investors also follow a huge amount of other investors, hoping for them to return the favor…and they do. But what good is that? Investors are the last people you want following your professional activities because they skew your results. I make a particular mention, when I use my own efforts to

my students, I ask them please not “like” my page, because when I reach milestones I want to know that those are real-life fans that I have a chance of doing business with. If you are doing your job correctly, then your content should be very uninteresting to investors outside of your geographic area, anyway. There is the exception where you are recognized as ‘doing it right’ and other people will follow you as a great example. In this case you may not be able to stop the movement, and it could help boost you to a larger than life status. In the meantime, just try to keep the groups separate in your head and don’t be afraid to delete agents who try to buttin on the conversation. You worked hard for it, they didn’t. 4. You Must Keep A Line Between Personal And Professional. Your Social Media feed includes pictures of you overindulging at a party last weekend, an abstract thought or quote that means nothing to anyone, a blog post about buying a home, a “checked-in” at McDonald’s, your high scoring Scrabble word. If you did have any chance at success it was ruined when you sat down in front of the keyboard and spammed your friends with business and exposed your personal life to your business contacts. On Facebook the separation is simple (and demanded by FB terms of use): Keep your friends on your Personal Profile and create a Fan Page for the “Business You”. 5. Remember The Golden Rule. You can’t expect others to help you unless you’ve taken a moment to help them. Or, if you prefer “treat others as you wish to be treated”. The “Gimmees” of the world don’t last long with social media once people figure out that they have a one track mind. 6. You Haven’t Figured Out That Real Estate is Boring. Instead, consider creating a page around your niche in event of interests to that niche.You take the advice to create a fan page and but then you go and name it “John Doe, Your Chicago Real Estate Expert. You then proceed to post all of your listings without the benefits of why they are good deals. This follows with the frustration that no one joins your page and so you decide to re-re-re-suggest the page to your friends. When they still don’t join you just go back to posting the data on your personal account and everyone, including your spouse decides to hide you from their feed. Instead, consider creating a page around your niche in which you discuss not only real estate, but local news, pictures, facts, and events of interest to that niche. Try promoting other local FB pages’ activities, include some local pictures and fun facts, and then sneak in a real estate article or two. 7. You Don't Responsd. When people are connecting with you,

Clauses ssential E
ll Bronchick . . . Bi
Congratulations! You just purchased that new home study course. You followed the instructions. You found a good deal. You present your contract to the listing broker, and you get laughed at! The reality is, real estate brokers don't like "seminar" forms. They are comfortable using the "standard" agreement, although the standard agreement is usually drafted to protect the real estate broker, not you. You must learn how to take any "standard" agreement and modify it to your liking. The following are some essential clauses I use when buying a property: “And/or assigns” or “and/or Nominees” - As the buyer, you want to have the right to assign your contract. By placing your name with the words, “and/or assigns,” you automatically give yourself that right. The words, “and/or nominees” is not as broad, but it has been interpreted as giving the buyer the right to place title in the name of a trust. NOTE: If the contract contains an "anti-assignment" provision, you must cross that clause out. Inspection Clause - Have the right to make the contract contingent upon your right to do a thorough inspection before a certain date. Make certain that you are not required to hire a professional inspector and that the inspection clause permits you to cancel the contract if there are things wrong with the property and the seller is not willing to fix these or reduce the price. Choice of Escrow Company - As the buyer, insist on the right to choose the title or escrow company so that you remain in control. A conservative or uncooperative escrow or title company can make life very difficult if you are trying to do a creative deal. Right to Extend - Most contracts call for a date cerPage 12 tain for closing. If the buyer is not ready to close, the seller can hold him in default. Here are some tips for buying time: Make the closing date “on or about” June 1st. What does “on or about” mean? I’m not sure, but it certainly means LATER than June 1st! Have the right to extend the closing date if it is not your fault: “Said date may be extended an additional fifteen (15) days if lender requires additional documentation, paperwork or actions from the buyer and said delay is not due to the fault of the buyer.” Have the right to extend for thirty days by paying the seller the equivalent of one month’s mortgage payment. Limited Inspection Clause - Most standard broker contracts give the buyer the right to make the contract contingent upon the right to do a thorough inspection before a certain date. Make certain that the inspection period is short and that the inspection must be done by a licensed (if they are in your state) professional inspector. Limit objectionable items to roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and structural defects. An openended inspection clause will permit the buyer to "weasel" out of a contract because the garage door squeaks. Choice of Escrow Company - As the seller, I insist on the right to choose the title or escrow company so that I remain in control. A conservative or uncooperative escrow or title company can make life very difficult if you are trying to do a creative deal. Qualification of Buyer - The most important thing to keep in mind when selling is that time is money! The single biggest mistake sellers make is allowing an unqualified buyer to tie up their property under contract

email, DM, PM, or comment you don’t respond promptly, or at all. This leaves the impression idea that you’re not interested in fostering a relationship. We live in an instant gratification society and failing to respond to an online request within a reasonable amount time (as defined by the other party, not you) will cost you business. Fortunately, FB has just started to notify fan page admins of wall postings in addition to comments, which had been a problem for many that didn’t check their page (s) at least once in the morning and evening. So no excuses! 8. You Chase Your Tail. You’ve got the same 10-100 people who are subscribed to your blog, following you on twitter, and liking you on Facebook and most of them are close friends and family that didn’t want to hurt your feelings. They either ignore your content or participate just to boost your ego. Either you get the hard truth, or you end up fooling yourself that you’ve got great content and an attentive audience. If you aren’t reaching a new, broader audience, you need to consider a few things: Perhaps your message is missing the mark or just plain uninteresting. Or, maybe you just need to raise the bar and market the page more effectively to find a larger audience. 9. You Spend All Your Time Looking at Others.

Rather than coming up with a game plan of who your audience is and what they want to experience, you simply start a fan page and begin mimicking what you've seen done by other investors. There is nothing wrong with following other real estate investors who are great examples. The challenge however, is that most are poor examples and nothing but a loss for your time investment. Stop paying attention to online chatter and spend more time working on your own content. Figure out who your audience is and what it is that they want you to talk about. 10. You Don’t Care that Everyone Can Tell That You Don’t Care. You forget your login/password because you never login to your sites. You probably got inspired to start with social media, and you took some steps to build your online presence. You create an account on Facebook and Twitter, put links up to these accounts on your website(s), break rules 1-9 and then setup an automatic program to post your blog feed to your account. Predictably, you forget your login/password because you never visit either again. Anyone that happens to stumble across your message sees the tumbleweed rolling across the ignored prairie and exits via the back button and on to your competition’s account.

for two months. Do not believe any claims of the buyer, his agent or mortgage broker about their ability to qualify for a loan. You should know exactly what the qualifications are for an FHA or FNMA loan in your area and qualify the buyer yourself. I use the following clause: "Within 48 hours, buyer shall provide seller with buyer’s complete financial and credit information for seller’s approval. Within 72 hours after receipt of such information, Seller may terminate this contract and refund buyer’s earnest money if, in seller’s sole opinion, buyer does not have the creditworthiness to qualify for a loan from a third party. Seller’s decision and opinion shall be final in this regard, and buyer shall have no further recourse after return of this earnest money deposit." NOTE: Be certain you do not engage in illegal discrimination in rejecting a buyer's credit worthiness. Permission to Contact the Lender I hate being in the dark! I always want the ability to control the entire loan process and be able to get information from the lender along the way. The buyer's lender won't talk to you directly, without express written permission of the buyer. To remedy this problem, insert the following clause: "Buyer hereby gives express permission to all parties, including lenders, employers, financial institutions, credit agencies, mortgage brokers and real estate agents to release any appropriate financial information to the seller." Now you can take control, get on the phone and scream "What's holding up this lan!"

A Professionally Managed Real Estate Auction offers so many benefits to real estate owners and buyers that traditional methods of marketing simply can’t provide. More Real Estate is SOLD at Public Auction today than ever before and here are Several Reasons Why:

1. Real Estate Auctions guarantee a Sale
Date, a Price and a Closing Date. Traditional marketing methods offer no guarantees.

ell at hy S W ction? Au
7. Real Estate Auctions offer scheduled viewing and tour dates.

2. Real Estate Auctions don’t set a maximum
price for your property.

3. Real Estate Auctions will often generate a
higher price for your property than it would have sold for using traditional methods of marketing because of competitive bidding.

8. Real Estate Auctions eliminate any
contingencies and the need for inspections.

4. Real Estate Auctions compel buyers to
participate and buy on a specific day.

9. Real Estate Auction marketing promotes your
property on a national level which exposes your property to many more qualified buyers increasing competition and prices. Real Estate Auctions work when the client wants to sell their property in the shortest time, at the highest price with terms and conditions favoring the seller.

5. Real Estate Auctions create excitement,
urgency and competitive buyer participation for your property, which results in success and a higher selling price.

6. Real Estate Auctions eliminate the hassle of
negotiations and counters on everything except the top market price for your property.

Collecting Rent
Promissory Notes
Getting your rents . . . A conversation with a couple of MAREI members. At the monthly meeting in January, Debra Felderhoff mentioned a method she uses to ensure that she gets paid when a tenant is going to be late with rent. She said she learned this method from Brian Winberry, who is one of our hosts of the Weekly Wednesday Networking event. We took a few minutes to talk with Brian to get the low down. When a tenant calls to say they can’t quite make rent on time, but will be able to make the payment in a few days or a week, landlord should then take the time to negotiate and write up a promissory note for the rent that outlines the amount of rent to be paid, the late fees, when it is supposed to be paid and that if the rent is not paid, they will agree to move out. This promissory note serves several purposes. First, it gets the tenant in the frame of mind that they owe the rent and late fees on a particular date or that they will move out. They have signed a legal document, the promissory note. Now, it may be important to note they also signed your lease agreement that is also a legal and binding agreement, but they signed it quite a while ago and the recent signing of the promissory note will remind them. Second, the promissory note is something that if not paid could be taken to small claims court to receive a judgment, with out going through and eviction process. Third, the promissory note is also a legal document that could be sold. A promissory note of this type would not have a huge value if it is resold, but it can be sold for a small amount. Brian’s method and Debra’s are about the same to this point, but Deb had one difference that it is worth noting. Deb would make her promissory note a title loan that is secured by the title to the tenants car. Then if the tenant did not pay or move out, she could take their car. It is important to note that Debra with her almost 100 rental properties has never had to take someone’s car. She has had people move out and leave the property broom swept clean when they could not pay as the promissory note said, saving her the cost of eviction fees and allowing her to get her property rented up quickly.

My new Client: the FBI! Donald Gossman
The Case You might ask why a residential real estate appraiser from Kansas City has the FBI as a client. Many appraisers were approached in the frenzy of the sub-prime mess to over value properties. To hit the number that the lenders needed. We are finding the damage that this is causing our economy and our country. On October 10, 2006 I received a phone call that changed my life and sent it in directions I could not have imagined. It was a sub-prime lender wanting to know if I appraised highend properties in the Kansas City Country Club District. I replied yes and quoted them a fee. I instructed the lender to place an order on my website and to fax me a copy of the contract. I reviewed the contract for $1,473,000, and then ran MLS to search for comparables and the subjects listing history. The MLS for the subject property showed it as an active listing for $699,000. I called the lender and asked if I had the wrong address or if this was a construction rehab loan. I stated, “Did you know this house was listed for $699,000?” The lender said yes. I was told they were selling it for the higher value, and if I wanted my fee I had to appraise it for that amount. They wanted me to jeopardize my reputation and 28 years in business for $1,200. I declined the order and called the listing agent to warn her. The realtor noted she knew nothing about the contract. The sellers had excluded this buyer when she received the listing and were cutting her out of the commission. I was enraged because I knew the mortgage system was broken and someone needed to act. I had attended the Appraisal Institute’s Mortgage Fraud Seminar the week before and met an agent with the FBI, Julia Jensen. I decided to call and let her know what was going on so she could put the property on a watch list. Agent Jensen called me back the next day. I discussed the details with her about what was happening. She asked who the buyer was and I told her the names. She informed me they were part of a mortgage fraud group operating in Kansas City and she would be interested in the information. She also asked who the sellers were. I gave their names. She replied, “Let me grab another agent and we will see you in 20 minutes”. That was not the reply I was expecting. I was at my office waiting for two FBI agents. I kept wondering what I have gotten myself into? They arrived at my office and I showed them the information that I had obtained. They asked if I was familiar with the sellers’ names, which I wasn’t. The agents told me the seller’s dad was allegedly a made member of the mob. He was executed in the 1970’s and stuffed in the trunk of a car. This information grabbed my attention. They assured me not to worry about the son, as far as they knew he was not a member of the mob. They asked if I knew who his wife was, and I said no. They said I might know her professional name, which they told me. I knew that name. She had been the Jackson County Executive for the last 12 years and was going to run for Mayor of Kansas City. The agents asked if I could assist them with their investigation. I told them I would. Next, they asked me to call the lender and tell them I would complete the appraisal. Then the agents asked the million dollar question. “Would you tape the conversation?” The moment of truth had arrived. If I said no, then they would leave and I would go back to appraising as if nothing happened. If I said yes, I might be the next person they find in the trunk of a car. They pulled out a recording device and showed me how to use it. They noted the date and time of the call, who was in the office, who I was calling and the case. I called the processor and told her I would complete the appraisal. I tried to act normal when talking with her. I am a real estate appraiser, not an undercover agent. The Investigation After the agents left my heart was pounding. I tried to imagine out how this might work out. They had left another recording device to use while talking with the other people involved in the transaction. I called the selling agent to schedule a time to appraise the home, which we set up for the next Tuesday. I then spoke with the loan officer and processor to let them know the inspection had been set. The processor mentioned that the loan was over 1 million dollars so they would require another appraisal in addition to mine. She

asked if I would call the other appraiser and work together to make the appraisals similar to pass underwriting guidelines. Apparently, committing mortgage fraud was no big deal for them. I called Agent Shaffer and confirmed the time and date was set. He asked if I could drop off the recording device to him on Monday at FBI Headquarters and trade him for a new one. Monday finally came and I drove to FBI Headquarters. It was a three story office building like any other, with exception of the 10-foot high iron fence, blast gate and video cameras at the front gate. I pressed the button and told them who I was meeting with and they buzzed me in. I walked to the front door and was greeted by an armed guard. She told me the agents were on the way down. Once I spoke with the agents, they asked me to come back to the interrogation room. As we walked past the metal detectors, I asked the guard if I needed to go through one.

She replied, “You are an agent, aren’t you? You don’t have to go through it”. I replied, “I am not an agent, I am an appraiser.” We went to the interrogation room and discussed the conversations that I had with the various people involved with the transaction. Another agent came into the room with a camera and took a picture of me. The agents asked if I would be a confidential witness and gave me my code name. It all went so fast I had no time to think about what was happening. We set a time to meet the next day before I was to complete the inspection. Agent Shaffer and I met the next morning in the parking lot of a grocery store. He showed me a different recording device that took both audio and video and how to use it. I drove to the house and the realtor was waiting for me. I took a picture of the front of home with him in the picture, and then took a street scene with his car in the picture.

The realtor could not say he wasn’t there. We went inside the house and the realtor told me this group was going to buy between 40 and 50 homes in Kansas City ranging in value from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000, and his group was doing the same thing in 10 different cities. They had money from overseas to invest and planned to rent out these houses to executives. I couldn’t believe it. This could possibly be a multi-city international crime ring, not just one case of mortgage fraud. I finished my inspection, then left to meet Agent Shaffer. I described the events that took place and gave him back the recording device. Over the next three weeks, I taped conversations with people involved in the transaction. I was doing my appraisal work at night and on weekends since a lot of my time was spent working on the case. I even began to worry

the right choice when I called Agent Jensen that first day. On my way home, I turned on the radio and switched channels to talk radio. The announcer broke in with a news update. He stated, “A Federal Grand Jury in Kansas City has handed down Mortgage Fraud charges against 11 people including the Jackson County Executive and her lawyer husband.” When I arrived home I turned on the television. The charges were being reported on all of the local stations. I’ve always watched the news, but have never been part of the news. The trial was set for February, but delayed until June after the election. The County Executive did go on to run for the Mayor’s office and received 1.5% of the Vote. The same day her TV ads for Mayor debuted was the same day the mortgage fraud indictments were brought against her. Interestingly enough, no one was talking about the buyers. The fed alleged that the buyers were part of the larger fraud team, which had committed over 100 cases of mortgage fraud in the Kansas City area. Furthermore, the feds also alleged that in the prior 18 months, this mortgage fraud team caused millions of dollars in losses. In May, the Assistant U.S. Attorney contacted me to prepare for the trial. We met with the two FBI agents at the U.S. Court House. We listened to the tapes that I had made which was the first time that I had heard them. I can never explain the thoughts that were going through my head. “I AM AN APPRAISER”. I am not supposed to be sitting in the Federal Court House with the Assistant U.S. Attorney and two FBI agents listening to tapes of myself and individuals committing mortgage fraud. But I was. The trial was delayed again until November 2007. The Trial After the trial was postponed for the second time, the legal maneuvering started between the U.S. Government lawyers and the defense lawyers. Seven people in the transaction pleaded guilty to the charges against them, and four people were left to be tried. I was the lead witness in the U.S. Government’s case that was expected to last two weeks. The jury was to be seated on Monday morning with opening statements to be made late in the morning. The U.S. Attorney asked me to be at the Federal Court House at 1 p.m. on November 6, 2007. I showed up during the lunch break and found out the jury had not been seated thanks to publicity the trial had received which led to larger than normal numbers in the jury pool. I sat waiting in the witness room for four hours. The jury was set and the opening arguments were made. The judge said, “That is enough for today. We will reconvene at 9 a.m.”. I walked out of the court house with everyone else. No one knew how the trial would play out. The investigation had been portrayed by the local media as a political witch hunt by the new U.S. Attorney office against a local politician. I knew nothing about that. All I knew was someone tried to defraud a lender, and I did my job by protect-

about my children’s safety. The other appraiser called me and told me he was having a hard time appraising the property for $1,473,000. He explained that the highest he could get was only $1,200,000. I thought, “You will over appraise it by $500,000 but not $743,000?” I guess he had partial ethics. We agreed to the value and completed the appraisals. The FBI agents asked if I would drop off the appraisal to the mortgage company while wearing a wire. By this point, it seemed like the natural thing to do. I walked away from the mortgage company thinking my part was done and it was all over for me. If only that was the case. My life went back to normal. I had not heard anything for three weeks. On November 24, 2006, I received a phone call from the second appraiser. He asked, “Did you hear what was going on?” I replied “No”. He said, “I received a call today from the FBI and I have an appointment at 9 a.m. to talk to them about mortgage fraud.” I thought, “Sucks to be you”. I told the other appraiser thanks for the heads up. He asked, “What are you going to do”. I replied, “Tell them the truth; they know what is going on”. Agent Shaffer called and told me the closing had tried to occur the prior Friday and they had stopped it at the closing table, at the title company. The FBI was interrogating the individuals involved in the transaction. He asked me not to talk with anyone if they called. He informed me the Grand Jury was set for January 4, 2007, and verified I could be there that day after lunch to testify. The Grand Jury I was contacted by the Assistant U.S. Attorney Linda Parker Marshall. She asked me to come in so she could describe the events that would take place in the Grand Jury Room. I meet with her and the FBI agents at the U.S. Courthouse in late December 2006. It was finally sinking in that this was really going to happen. I was hoping for a lot of guilty pleas so I wouldn’t have to testify, but that would not be the case. The date arrived. I went through my morning like it was any other day. I completed two inspections then went home to put on a suit and tie. I wasn’t hungry for lunch for some reason. I drove to the court house and parked in the FBI lot where Agent Shaffer had instructed me to. I took a deep breath and said to myself, “Let’s do this”. I walked into The U.S. Courthouse knowing if the Federal Grand Jury believed me, they would hand down indictments on 11 people and charge them with Federal crimes. I waited for almost an hour until Mrs. Marshall came to get me. I walked into the room and told my story. I cannot reveal anything about what happened in that room or the people that were there. This was our government working at the basic level of the criminal justice system. I was in there for about an hour and then left. I walked out to my car knowing I had made

ing their interest in the property that they hired me to appraise. They were buying inflated values not appraising houses. I was back in the witness room the next morning feeling confident knowing I was going to tell the truth. After walking down the hall to get a drink, I heard the Judge say, “Mrs. Prosecutor, call your first witness”. The courtroom doors opened and I walked inside. I felt all eyes in the room follow me on my way to the witness stand and while I was being sworn in. Once seated, I looked out over the courtroom. To my right were the 14 jurors, 12 on the jury and 2 alternates. To my left the U.S. Federal Judge and the court reporter. At the defense table were the four defendants, their three lawyers and three assistants. At the prosecutors table were two FBI agents, two Assistant U.S. Attorneys and their support staff. There were four rows of seats for the public. The newspaper, TV and radio stations from the all across the Midwest were in the audience. Linda Parker Marshall, the Assistant

U.S. Attorney, lead my questioning. She asked me my name, address and occupation. She then asked me to describe how I became part of the case. When I was explaining the events that unfolded over the course of many months, I could hear the reaction from the audience. It seemed they were surprised by the actions that I had taken. There is no way that I could ever have imagined how things would play out. After almost two hours, the prosecutor was finished with my questioning. The judge called for a 15 minute break, which I was ready for. They didn’t make the witness seat for comfort. The break was over and the first defense lawyer questioned me for over an hour. His questioning was the toughest as he was questioning MY ethics and the motive behind my actions. He tried to rattle me and succeeded on a few occasions. The judge warned me twice to limit my answers to the questions asked. The second lawyer only asked me two questions and I was done. The third lawyer was less aggressive towards me compared to the first lawyers.

The third lawyer even talked about how I had such a good reputation and could not have been involved in mortgage fraud. I replied, “They called the wrong appraiser to commit mortgage fraud this time”. After four hours on the stand, my part of the trial was complete. The trial would go on for another eight days. The jury deliberated for four days and came back with two guilty and two not guilty verdicts. The mortgage and financial markets are a mess. The industry made it through the high interest rates of the early 1980’s, the recession of 1991, the first and second gulf wars and the effects of 9/11. We need the separation of the origination of mortgages from the valuation of the properties. Enforcement of national and state laws. Prosecution of fraudulent lenders, insurers, bankers, brokers and appraisers. We, the mortgage business, need to rebuild the trust in our banking and mortgage systems.
