NY Fed disclosure of the TARP payments

In the NY Fed disclosure of the TARP payments, they show various certificates that were tendered for cash. In Maiden Lane I, it shows the CDS’s for 11 certificates from the WFHET_05-2, mostly M8 but also an M9 and M7 certificate. Some of the values show a positive amount (8,200,000, i.e) and some show negative balances (-10,000,000 i.e.). This was a Bear-Stearns counterparty deal. What are these values representative of? The amount of the loss on the swap? Amounts vary among the M8’s. They show 9 M8’s, 1 M7, one M9.

Credit Card Companies geting tougher? FIGHT BACK with securitization defenses!

See the thing about the arrogance of these non-bank and bank financial institutions is they are rushing to get under the wire before the truth is revealed: they are not the creditor and they never were. Send your debt validation letters and don’t let them sue without filing a motion to dismiss the same as the foreclosure actions. They have nothing. They are just pretender lenders just like the mortgage companies.

How to Find “Who Owns The Note” – Who has an “Insurable Interest” !!!!

How to Find “Who Owns The Note” – Who has an “Insurable Interest” !!!!

It is basic insurance law that in order to become named as a loss payee – that is, to get an insurance policy issued to you to indemnify you against loss – you have to have an “insurable interest.” MERS doesn’t ( as far as I know). It is not a “loss payee”. Every assignment of a mortgage (when the mortgage is sold in the securitization process is insured:

(I think I posted this here before, because Eagle9 warns of a loss of assignment if the assignment or hypothecation (sale of chattel paper/mtg) is not recorded under state law AND there is an intervening BANKRUPTCY that supersedes UCC automatic perfection under UCC 9-301 – 304

(yes, I did:

Follow the insured interest.

Then you will know who does or does not have an interest in your mortgage.

And thanks to Brad Keiser for reminding me of this again in our telephone conversation yesterday.
