Homeowners all across the U.S. are feeling feeling the stress due to a decline in the value of their homes and the fact that they now owe the bank more than their property is worth.
According to a report published in May 2010 by First American CoreLogic a real estate information company based in Santa Ana, CA “more than 11.2 million, or 24%, of all residential properties with mortgages, were in negative equity at the end of the first quarter of 2010.” Of that number in California alone more than 2.4 million homes or 1/3 rd of all mortgages have negative equity.
However, there is hope through an option known as Short Pay Refinance which may be the best solution for them if they qualify for it.
The underwater mortgages and negative equity pose a roadblock to a housing recovery because the underwater mortgages are more likely to fall into default leading to a potential foreclosure by the bank. Most banks have already been taking big losses on foreclosure and short sale properties and are considering other options as well.
Short Pay Access is able to help homeowners anywhere in the U.S. through the best short pay refinance program available today. The company does not charge any upfront fees to homeowners. It offers a solution for both banks as well as for the homeowners. The Homeowners get to keep their home with a lower principal balance and lower monthly mortgage payments more in line with the current value of their home and the banks get a chance to “clean-up” their balance sheet by getting a property completely off their books.
Banks are becoming more willing to accept a short pay refinance specially if the borrower is current on their mortgage but is experiencing some type of short term financial difficulty or the interest rate on the borrower’s current loan is about to increase.
A Short Pay Refinance also provides the bank with an infusion of “cash” which increases their ability to invest in other opportunities or to lend out. Banks are in the “Lending” business and not the Real Estate business.
Unlike a Loan Modification or a Short Sale, which sometimes requires a borrower to be delinquent on their mortgage payments, the Short Pay Refinance Program follows standard lending guidelines and only works if the borrower has a clean recent mortgage payment history.
Short Pay Access works with the lender in order to complete the short pay refinance and gets the lender to write off a portion of the loan amount. Doing a Short Pay Refinance gives homeowners the ability to refinance their homes at the fair market value. The process involves paying off the current lenders loan at fair market value and then refinancing their home with a new lender at the current market value.
The Short Pay Access team led by licensed negotiators and assisted by experienced processors have carefully built working relationships with lenders. The team is well versed in the lender’s requirements and preferences and uses this experience to help the homeowner without wasting any time dealing with unknowns.
To find out if you qualify for the Short Pay Refinance program contact the Short Pay Access team by calling (925) 309-6109 or visit the website at http://www.ShortPayAccess.com

A very popular and interesting path for a trainee solicitor would be to consider a Commercial Property Solicitor job. This is a rapid moving and dynamic field and although the current climate following the credit crisis has led to a general decline in the commercial property sector, there are still opportunities left for commercial property solicitors. Those working as commercial property solicitors can advise on transactions and act for a range of clients, including investors and developers, landowners and local authorities. You might work in-house for large property developers or companies with a large land holding, or more commonly within private practice.
Transactions can involve everything from offices and homes to retail developments and industrial units.
In general, the legal issues dealt with by a conveyancing solicitor include acquisitions and disposals of commercial property, landlord and tenant issues, leases, sales, development agreements, planning applications for insolvency and liability issues arising from environmental law. The work involves new ways of transacting, through financing and development or co-investment. In the years before the bust, there was a marked increase in workload in provincial practices fuelled by the development sector. In a growing and upward moving property market, the work of many developers can be plentiful - but it tends to be limited in time and sometimes stressful.
Those who have a career as a commercial property solicitor could fall very roughly into two camps, business winners and technicians.It is the second set that commands a higher salary, and for this particular type of solicitor, the solicitor needs to be highly focused, and work towards obtaining the business goals of its clients. To be a successful business winning Commercial Property solicitor, customer wining and dining plays a big role, so shrinking violets may be wise to avoid the demanding role of marketing activities. Hours can be long, so aspiring solicitors may consider back-office or support roles, where the work-life balance tends to be more reasonable. In general, the commercial property sector remains busy and junior solicitors can enjoy more autonomy at an earlier stage of their career compared to other areas.
There are other related areas such as planning and construction. Although in the past, these disciplines have been covered by a commercial property division, they now regarded as separate areas. Those who take part in the work of a construction solicitor often fall into those of real estate, specializing in non contentious work, and commercial litigation specializing in construction litigation disputes. Although solicitors can work in both fields, generally they will focus on one or the other. Those working in contentious practice are often ideally suited to play the role of mediator, and most construction contracts have this form of dispute resolution built in. Planning law can be complex and demanding and applications for a large development can often take many years. House solicitor usually work in private practice or in local government. Planning legislation and government guidelines are constantly evolving and the ability to stay one step ahead is an important contribution to success in this field.
LANCES BAY, JAMAICA – MAY 12, 2010 – Karen and Coleman Hookaylo always dreamed of retiring to Jamaica and opening their own vacation resort … and now they are living that dream.
The couple has opened Le Mer luxury villas in Lances Bay, Jamaica, which sits between Montego Bay and Negril. These private villas, located just steps from the ocean, offers spacious rooms and beautiful views.
“I always knew that I wanted to retire and find a way to share my beautiful homeland with others,” said Karen, who was born and raised in Jamaica. “Then when Coleman and I, who were both attorneys in Hilton Head, South Carolina, retired three years ago – we thought ‘Why not now?”
So the Hookaylos purchased the land Le Mer now sits on and went to work turning its run-down buildings and overgrown landscaping into their vision of a tranquil vacation getaway.
The site now boasts simply-styled, Caribbean-themed villas with their own kitchens and living areas.
“To see this land transformed from where it was to where it is now has been truly exciting,” Karen said. “Now visitors can come together on the unique balcony or relax under the cabana and read in the shade. They can explore sea caves, snorkel in the clear blue water, or relax in our pool.”
“Le Mer truly is the realization of a dream and we feel so lucky to be here right now,” Karen said.
Each villa at Le Mer comes with the following accommodations – two bedrooms with king beds, two bedrooms with two queen beds, a living room, a dining room and a full kitchen.
Rates range from $280 per night to $1750 per week for the entire 4 bedroom villa.
“We know our rates are low compared to some of the other villas in Jamaica, but our location is very unique and focuses on “rest and relaxation”. We love the simplicity of it, it is not a fast paced tourist resort, just beautiful serenity by the water” says Karen.

Many times a question pops up in buyer’s or seller’s mind that why it is necessary to hire a property solicitor. They often wonder why they can’t manage their conveyancing themselves.When I think of answer for this question I remember a commercial run by a company suggesting one should leave it on experts! When it comes to law there is nothing collateral hence it is always advised to consult and expert of law to avoid any legal complications that may keep troubling you for a longer period of time and can also possibly cause huge financial loss. With reference to above rationale it is strongly recommended to hire a uk solicitor for property to furnish you with all legal help required throughout buying or selling process of a property.
A property solicitor is instrumental in following processes where an individual can not be as effective and as concrete as a qualified and experience professional. Below are some processes where property solicitor helps a buyer.A property solicitor undertakes pre-contract searches on behalf of you. Pre-contract search is a technical search in nature, local land registry and authority, as well as other statutory bodies are integral to this search process. Objective of this search is to identify the boundaries of the property as well as to find out any rights to that property that can affect it, they may beneficial or harmful.
Another important task that a mortgage solicitors does for you is making pre-contract enquiries. A property solicitor frames a comprehensive list of enquiries for the seller’s solicitor to answer. This is to ensure that all the necessary information that you should know is known to you including information on any necessary disclosures made by the seller. This will help you to gather specific details of the contract.One of the most important task house solicitor performs is drafting a sales contract in a way that it benefits you at maximum. He takes care and ensures that every aspect of the sale is covered and also makes necessary amendments considering pre-contract search and inquiries.
Your property solicitor keep guiding you as the process moves on and you exchange contracts with payment of deposits and finally pay full price of the property to the seller. Property solicitor is again instrumental in yet another legal formality to prevent you from any complication or confusion in future. He partakes in the transfer of purchase deeds, registers your title at local land registry and also takes care of the payment of stamp duty land tax.
In my opinion this entire process may seem well structured and straight forward to a solicitor, an individual may not be able to fulfill all the requirements at ease. I would surely suggest to let the expert do his work.
