MERCED, Calif. (AP) - The end came in a flash outside the Merced County courthouse.

Only six people were in the auction partitioning, Janice Pimentel and his son Nick. With the possibility of Pimentels’ dairy farm was the first property.

The auctioneer, a young man of loyalty sunglasses and blue jeans, see the address for the submission of tenders and Watchkeeping. If none come to the R and T Joe Pimentel Janice Dairy Farm, 21 years in the life of the family, which officially entered into possession of the major creditors, a local lender.

“Now,” said Janice Pimentel, “it is a fact.”

The Court Pimentels was once a fixed point in California’s Central Valley, best known as the fruit basket throughout the world and, in recent days, with the highest concentration of Rechtsausschließungen in the country. Many closure devices in the very short term here in rural communities, to be changed, perhaps forever, because the nation’s housing merger.

While the news about the mortgage often, the crisis focuses on the cities and suburbs booming, rural America has been hit hard, too. Research by the Housing Assistance Council, a Washington-based non-for-profit organization that provides assistance in residential construction in the rural pockets of the country, found that Rechtsausschließungen are at least as well in small towns than in cities .

“It’s happened all over,” said Moises Loza, HAC managers.

The partitioning problems in the small town of America perhaps even more widespread than in the cities. Mobile and manufactured homes represent at least 15% of rural housing of the nation, and three quarters of them were financed by instalment or personal property in the form of a mortgage after HAC. If the original owner, it leads to the reduction instead of partitioning, and they are not determined in isolation, Loza said.

Rural residents often have fewer credit for the election as city dwellers, and can be preyed upon by high interest rates and predatory lending practices. But the mortgage accurate statistics for rural areas are difficult to obtain, because during the major banks in urban areas in accordance with the federal law are to report lending activity, many small, rural financial institutions.

Merced is one of three border counties near the tip of the recent closure of the national list that RealtyTrac a real estate company. Merced County No. 4. San Joaquin County, including the city of Stockton, No. 2, and the County of Stanislaus, Modesto, No. 3. (No. 1 was Cape Coral-Fort Myers, Florida)

During these three counties of California in February, the partitioning of the procedures have been more than 3,100 objects and nearly 1,300 houses have been accepted by RealtyTrac. Isolation in relation to claims, approximately 100 cases of one of the buildings, in the three departments, compared to one of 557 properties in Germany.

Merced County, 246000 inhabitants Having a housing boom in recent years, which saw the evolution of spring used, which could arable land, said Rep. Dennis Cardoza, a Democrat from Merced. Well, in cities such as Atwater, housing values have dropped, as much as 50 percent, reported said.

“The impact on these small cities and towns is enormous,” said Cardoza. “In my neighborhood, I think we are already in a recession.

Merced County, in cities like Planada, you do not need statistics, which tell them that the partitioning crisis hit.

The landscape is filled with for-sale and the segregation of characters, with empty houses weedy Front lawns and graffiti on board-up. The skeletons of houses, in which construction stopped, if the market went bust development, where houses, which sells for $ 400000 only three years, begging are now at half price.

Driving around depressive tendencies surrounded by almond orchards, John Pedrozo, Merced County Supervisor, representing Planada, could not be included distress.

“I lived here 50 years, and I have never seen anything comparable,” said Pedrozo, grew up on a farm. “The company, people will bankrupt. And the ruins of the houses empty.” A common problem, he said, is that the free weekend, the houses are closed blocked for wild celebrations and the trash.

In small towns, one or two or even acquire properties rescue that may have a great influence on the community, “said Pedrozo. “It’s not only that the title to the property values,” he said. “And also that people are losing their neighbors and their community.”

Janice and Joe Pimentel, who are 52 and 58, respectively, decided their families’ tradition Farm milk purchased, when they discovered 25-acre property in Atwater two decades. Your son, now 21 and 30, have decided not to go to the economy, and the Pimentels thought they were going to retire one day and turn the farm into an orchard of the kernel.

Since they lost their farm, formerly prosperous, a shop about 200 cows, it is not simply a sub-prime mortgage history. It has to do with lower prices for milk, increased costs for feeding animals, a few unlucky, and, yes, a five-year programme, the refinancing of loans at an interest rate of 12 per cent.

At the beginning of its financial problems in 2007, Father Joe’s cancer. With such a heavy financial burden and personal Pimentels who was unable to provide the attention of the battery is needed.

“With 58, I started by me,” said Joe, who started, he worked for the Department of Agriculture Landkreis, recruitment in the fight against the traps.

The farm is a Pimentels ghostly eyes, with their stands empty, the shimmy roof over the barn most important, where flowers and weeds to grow. Soon, the Pimentels their pets - two dogs and three horses - to the humble home of Joe’s father has left, a mile away.

The Pimentels doubt, it is owned by a family dairy farm forever. Maybe it is a developer pack, Janice said, “in terms of housing is still developing, when at Merced, at any given time.”

The Council formally adopted the city Tuesday 5-0 regulation aims to ensure that the reduction of infections Rechtsausschließungen property.

Desert Hot Springs City Guide, in conjunction with other cities in the Coachella Valley, still struggling with this problem, just as the nation state and partition the rate reaches record numbers, because the inability of many owners repay risky adjustable-rate mortgages.

From 1 May, Desert Hot Springs is a program for implementation by the lenders to warn that if the townhouses go to enforcement.

Lenders may also local authorities property management, isolate them home, officials say Desert Hot Springs, the prevention of neglect and potential health and safety issues.

About 990 homes in Desert Hot Springs’ city limits are available in the various phases of the closure of the city of documents.

The city council has already voted 5-0 on March 18, for settlement on first reading.

“It will also help the property that surrounds and lower prices,” said Daniel.

The program is supplemented by a $ 60 collected as a record holder when they abandoned an institution in the city.

The introduction of the Regulation was amended by the concerns of residents in the vicinity of isolated houses, whose complaints have submitted concerns about mosquito breeding pools neglected in the Break-in “keggers keep children,” said Daniel .

A New Jersey-based companies, loans to control the Riverwalk Plaza Hotel not met a deadline Monday to pay $ 45000 and taxes for the year 2005, and sends the building in enforcement.

For the first time in five years, the city of circle or driving licence will have a chance to do something, you can structure.

“It’s a great day to know that these” out-of-town no longer influence, control of the albatross, it has been this year for the town, “City Councilman Andrew Frounfelker said in an e - mail.

Kennedy Funding, insofar control of the Riverwalk early 2003, had a track record of paying taxes at the last minute, officials said they were unsure whether the end of the day Monday, the division would occur.

Officials from the state have more muscle to the effort to combat Ohio partitioning of the crisis: legal assistance for homeowners troubled.

Gov. Ted Strickland, Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas J. Moyer, and several other government officials gathered Tuesday to announce he is entitled to his dream Create one component of the initiative, an effort last month, a connection helps owners to advise the Near and support. The new Save the Dream help those who need help, but the partitioning can not afford a lawyer.

Tuesday-owner allows the development, in order to ensure the closure-Save the Dream Hotline at 888-404-4674, and see if income and other requirements for connecting to a lawyer pro bono work. The essential requirement for eligibility income was $ 54000 annual income, or less for a family of four.

Officials from the state last month, bills of more than 34000 lawyers included Ohio, they invite help legal aid. Starting from Tuesday, over 1100 lawyers registered. More than 350 lawyers by obtaining the exclusion of the formation of the Ohio State Bar Association, while other courses are planned, officials said.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The legislative effort to address the nation’s home partitioning crisis progressed Tuesday as the Senate Democratic defuses potential GOP leaders and obstruction.

Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. And GOP leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky agreed, the parties a bill on the floor, rather a plan for democracy, a month ago at a standstill.

Instead, the Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd, D-Conn. And the jury top Republican Richard Shelby of Alabama, have been invited to forge a compromise, we can call as early as Wednesday.

Senators of both parties to the convention have a stamp of 94-1 prior to a draft vote to procedural issues.

The move means dropping a plan Democratic - drive against Republicans and President Bush - the bankruptcy court to give power to the reduction in interest rates and the most important issues on mortgages.

The legislature is likely to elements such as democratic states problem for the rental of $ 10 billion of tax, for refinancing loans for the purpose of Subprime loans and money allows homebuilders and other businesses to lose, Prior to the reimbursement of taxes paid.

– Democrats also want $ 4 billion to buy the country isolated and renovator of houses, a plan for the administration against a bailout for lenders and speculators.

The next bill is also to consider an amendment to Johnny Isackson GOP Senator from Georgia 15000 to $ awarded tax credit people who buy and move into homes isolated. It would be highly in demand, Isackson said.

The measure is also likely to have a plan in Dodd the Federal Housing Administration guarantee hundreds of billions of dollars of loans refinanced reduce the lender when the loan is reduced to reflect the values at home. This measure would force banks to less money for loans, but also reduce their credit risk.

WASHINGTON, March 31, 2008 (Thomson Financial, Newstex) - Senate Democrats will try as early as tomorrow to win the support of a controversial proposed law they say will help the growing number of mortgage and Rechtsausschließungen calculated that publishes today From a plan by the Bush administration to increase regulation of the mortgage market are not affected by the current crisis.

“We are concerned by today,” said Senate Majority Leader and Democrat Harry Reid of Nevada, said at noon in a telephone conversation with journalists. “We believe the White House should focus on what must be done. ”
The bill has already been supported Democrats refused Republican Congress. She, as the Bush administration has so far rejected the idea of a solution to the crisis of the mortgage with the new programs and spending to say a proposal, they could increase the cost of mortgages for all borrowers.

This proposal would allow judges to rewrite the mortgage contracts in insolvency proceedings would be if we continue to make their mortgage payments owners. Republicans and lenders say, it would increase the strength of the lender the cost of borrowing for all borrowers.

The Senate Democrats, the so-called effects eviction Prevention Act, including the requirement for 200 mln usd more partitioning in consultancy, and if 10 bln usd in the new agency for financing housing for rent Agencies using bond yields to help refinance mortgages.

Reid of the Senate Banking Committee and Chairman Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, said these steps are necessary to the current crisis, and said that the regulation plan unveiled today by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson would only be an impact on the future of ‘the mortgage industry.

Paulson recommended today broader authority of the Federal Reserve, a streamlining of federal authorities, and some oversight of the state-level regulation of mortgage brokers.

Mr. Reid said Senate Democrats are willing to work with the administration of these ideas, although the Administration’s proposal is already considered by many as an attempt, the need for a congress of the legislation. Dodd was quite hostile, “said Paulson’s plan” nothing to do “with the current crisis.

“To talk of revising regulations is a good idea, but it does not apply on the problems that we confrontation with are here,” he said.

Dodd added that Paulson is “entirely by the brand, as he said, the proposal establishes regulatory could have avoided the current crisis, and said, the problem is that the regulatory authorities of the Confederation is rejected, legal instruments needed to be against predatory credit operations.

Mr. Reid said he does not believe the Democrats and Republicans are far from each other than in the housing market, but the chance acknowledged that may not be enough support for accounts at the end of debate and a vote should be postponed, that the Republicans have already prevented from fact in the same bill.

If this happens again, “said Reid, the Democrats would not move to another subject, and rather than continue to find a way for something in the context of the crisis of the mortgage.

“Unless we stay on this case,” said Dr. Reid.

Later this week, Dodd supported this issue by convening a hearing to examine the modalities of the JP Morgan Chase Buyout considered by Bear Stearns (NYSE: BSC), because of their collapsed overexposure to the value of mortgage securities The value has fallen in the last several months.

In a state where Rechtsausschließungen are almost 70 percent a year, the South Florida city is doing what it can contribute to what people in their homes.

The city, on Tuesday opened a duty of care in the enforcement process, in partnership with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development to assist homeowners mortgages new reimbursement rate, repair damaged credit and, in some cases, a direct payment in the amount of $ 10000 to the man behind their loans.

The collapse of the housing market to the national average in cities across the country to collect the work with the people who are in danger of losing their homes, Rechtsausschließungen. Daylong lounges, where lenders and advisers offer advice on desperate homeowners have in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston, and dozens of other cities and towns.

In February, Florida erupted only in Nevada and California, the percentage of households and segregation. RealtyTrac Inc. said 32,447 houses were in the state of separation in February to more than 69 percent from the month of February last year and more than 7 percent from January.

The new center of West Palm Beach is free and every day during the week.

It is also helping financially stressed homeowners to sell their homes, which is confirmed by a so-called “short sale”, where the house is sold, less than the amount owed on the mortgage, but also to avoid segregation.

The city has changed with financial institutions to purchase houses, Atlantic Bank, Bank of America Corp. and SunTrust Banks Inc.

“We will see then to the city who buy homes in our affordable housing program to potential buyers, the costs of closure and the payment of support,” said the spokesman for the city of Scott Chase.

Posted Mayor Lois Frankel: “For many, the dream of national promotion of home ownership has become a nightmare National closure.” The Centre intends, “she said,” in order to propose concrete solutions the huge challenge that most American families. “

Although concentrates in the district centre and the suburbs less prosperous, the partitioning problem is no longer there.

Over the past few months Rechtsausschließungen have affected some of the communities in Rhode Island, including Barrington, East Greenwich, Jamestown, Lincoln, Little Compton, Newport and Narraganset.

RealtyTrac Inc., Irvine, California, the company that sells the partitioning of the data, said that in the past year and the first two months of this year, the number of bids partitioning instructions contain properties in Barrington ( 23), Cumberland (35), East - Greenwich (12), Jamestown (2), Lincoln (16), Little Compton (1), Narragansett (12), Newport (13), North Kingstown (24), Tiverton (10 ) and West Greenwich (12).

The amount of Rechtsausschließungen in these municipalities is not sufficient to pull down the values of adjacent property, and the widest range of markets, acquiring properties rescue are generally spared damage caused by theft and vandalism in the buildings in Distressed free.

Most often, but not always.

A fragmented house in East Greenwich, on the market for $ 749900 this year, sanitation, when the thieves had broken the doors of France on the back of the house, Edward E. Manfredi, Abbott with a real estate broker in Warwick. Real estate in East Greenwich 25 Laurel Drive 1 is closed from 70 houses Manfredi is responsible for managing the credit-donor owners.

“I was very surprised, really surprised. Time I was away,” said Manfredi of the incident.

Manfredi is also selling a four-unit dwelling house of 33 Halsey St., Newport, which is on the $ 329900. “It is not downtown, but it is Newport, Newport and real estate should be based on the amount of the premium, but it is not possible,” he said. “You n That is not surprising, with the market as it is, “he added.

Brian Marvelle, with a first ReMax agent in Providence, also specialized in selling land to win rescue. Last week, he was director of 93 properties, but only 45 bids were active in the market. “It is scandalous,” he told the scope of the problem.

Marvelle many features have said not to be deported, because the owners are continuing, payments and the movement, before the legal process is complete. Sometimes the closure process was never started. Some owners who are in danger of losing their homes, only facts to the bank there is a separation begins. This is known as “the place acts of segregation.” So few houses which are now on the market, such as banking or corporate-owned properties were in fact never win rescue.

Partitioning is the legal procedure by the lender from the property owners’ failure to pay once in the partitioning is the case, this property is known as the “bank” or “enterprise”.

Brief distribution, banks that accept less than that, which is based on a property for the sale of a clear title, even if you have any offers at the top of the range of Commons. A short sale is a distress sale, but it is not in the statistics of access control

“Most people are just and abandoned,” said Marvelle.

One of Marvelle offers in the bank is located on the property of the East Side of Providence, a Colonial in 1988 to 85 Lancaster St., a block of Rochambeau Avenue. It is available for $ 179,900. “It seems as if it has been completely transformed,” he said, the former owner. Like many acquire properties rescue, tube damaged the house, but in this case, the freezing temperatures have, “he says.

A corporate-owned house in Tiverton, 129 Fairmont Drive, is an example of the tower wild real estate prices have risen since the bursting of the real estate bubble. Purchased in July 2006 for $ 438,000 by Kenneth Mollicone, then sells it for $ 645,000 in November 2006, Stewart A. Chase, the colonial art from the ground with a pool is now on the market for $ 420000.

The house is Tiverton Joy Riley, Westcott Real Estate in Providence, another property specialist closed. Riley also Barrington’s bid for a small number of bank accounts owned houses, one in 17 colonial 1967 Lake Ave., Springtime in the bay of the city, the price is $ 249900. The same house sells for $ 280,000 last May.

Another house in Barrington, a restored Victorian, 15 Lincoln Ave., Was over $ 629,900 Coleman estate agent in a point ahead of the exclusion notices were published in September of last year. It was GMAC Mortgage LLC for $ 425,000 in October and December 28 sold for $ 373,000.

North Kingstown had only a basis for the sale of the last few weeks, one at 81 Hornet 1955 Ranch Rd, listed at $ 255000, but three properties were offered as short sales, in say that they are under the price outstanding mortgage on the ground.

Tony Warwick’s Olde Woods neighbourhood Button also owned firms in the market, including a five-bedroom Victorian at 52 Ninth Ave., Énumérait to $ 589900. In the corner, another bank-owned Victorian tenth, the 35 Ave. Is $ 429,900. Both houses have large Wraparound porches.

“He has not relaxed. There is increased, “said Manfredi locks the situation in Rhode Island. “I now have a better houses right as I entered a long time.”

I live with three partitioning of crises, even though I missed during the Great Depression, that the year 1933 was the country before 1000 Rechtsausschließungen per day. In the 1980’s, the problem is, saving and credit scandals in the late 1990’s, the scourge known as the “mirror” was responsible. The current crisis is due in large part to the explosion of Subprime mortgages.

We hear every day of the crisis, but what has been lacking is a satisfactory explanation, as we are in chaos.

In 1934, Congress has been the Federal Housing Administration mortgage insurer. More than three-quarters of a century, of the FHA, 34 million insured mortgage loans and contribute to this fuel an increase in the national rate of ownership of 40 per cent in 1934 to just under 70% today .

Until seven years ago, Baltimore was a city very FHA, the Agency for 42% control of the town market, compared with 30 percent in Germany. Many of those who are bought FHA-insured loans are to remember, like any FHA loan was manually Department of Housing and Urban Development’s office of the Mercantile Bank & Trust Building at the magnifying glass to be ready in FHA officers.

There were very few of the fraud and abuse in this system.

Another reason the system works well, the fact that the majority of the funds in Baltimore for municipalities are organized for immigrants - mostly from Eastern Europe - who knew each other, lived in the same neighborhood and went to the church. The old country of the extension of credit “Club” was real estate and savings and loan for the opening of the residential property, credit programs in America.

East Baltimore institutions such as St. Casimir’s S & L and S & L Czech were at the head of this movement, and there was a communal kitchen aspect of the process. The municipality would come together for a new married couple, buy a house - but if the couple were as much a month behind in their mortgage payment, they would have to hear his name by the priest on Sundays.

The degree of confidence in those days was high, and it was the norm. Many of these lenders are, and they never lowered its standards, but they have a lot to a small portion of total lending picture.

Given that the substance, as we have at this happen? How America’s willingness to allow the industry to undermine one of the most successful in the United States in order to strengthen the efforts of agriculture and neighborhoods homebuyers?

The decline began when the FHA experienced massive layoffs in the early 1980’s, the federal budget, a reduction in housing programs hit more than any other programs. The granting of a mortgage banking industry and lobbying Congress for legislation to enable the lender to approve customers for FHA-insured loans. This led to a large number of new donors credit - not all of them maintained.

Another big change came in 1994, the Congress, again, under pressure from lenders, lenders can choose their own experts. Until then, the FHA, the evaluators chosen for each of the loans.

These changes opened the door to abuse by a new generation of donors, and the results were predictable. The number of FHA lenders in Baltimore has increased from 58 in 1994 to 107 in 1998, and the number of FHA loans rose from 2153 to the 3821st Licensing in loans from a loan was how professional monitors “very indulgent”. The annual number of Rechtsausschließungen in Baltimore has risen from 1900 in 1996 to over 5000 by 1999. In April 1999, the LRA declared a three-month moratorium on its Rechtsausschließungen in Baltimore, for a deeper look on 500 borrowers who have just lost their homes.

With regard to the Agency is that in the elderly Rechtsausschließungen cities such as Baltimore, a serious problem for people in their homes and losing the neighborhood where Rechtsausschließungen summer. Committed as a result of the FHA “Neighborhood Watch” to monitor the programs and auditors, lenders credit appeared to be, a disproportionate number of Rechtsausschließungen.

This movement is futile, because in 2001, the FTA has much of the operation in Baltimore. Its share of the loan market has declined from 42 percent in 1998 to less than 3 percent in 2002, replaced by a large number of new products ready untested: setting rate mortgages at low interest rates, attacks in recent years, interest on loans, and In what has been known as “liars” loans where the borrower not declare their income and employment status.

The borrower to sign contracts with mortgage brokers and real estate companies. However, the parties are great, in the current crisis, the ones who misled, covering their own pockets and filling ignored the obligation of good faith and fair dealing, by implication, in each contract.

The result of all this that Baltimore housing market in a certain sense, it is collapsed. There are signs that the LRA made a comeback. From 1 January at 18 March of the agency approved 70 new lenders in Maryland to offer FHA-insured loans.

Hopefully, the FTA and the granting of credit community is drawn lessons from the past, and is once again a system on the basis of trust, fairness and commitments, which culminated recently, Baltimore, Maryland, and the whole nation in its history.
