The Washington D.C. attorney general put out a Statement of Enforcement Intent Regarding Deceptive Foreclosure Notices. Washington D.C. is a non-judicial foreclosure jurisdiction where notice just has to be given in advance of foreclosure.  Homeowners can challenge the foreclosure in court but th...

Richard Cordray, Ohio's attorney general, sounds like he's ready to come down hard on Wells Fargo for all of the "mistakes" that they made in the foreclosure process. Watch the video here.

Freddie Mac has a pretty nifty rent vs. buy online calculator.

Political differences don't have to turn into mud slinging and name calling.  This intereview by a die hard Progressive of a Libertarian Republican is a great example of how it is possible to discuss the issues without getting all negative. John Dennis is the Republican opponent that Democrat Nan...

I've started to get into couponing and taking advantage of really good deals at the supermarkets and drug stores. Walgreens has something that they call Register Rewards. On certain items, they give you a register receipt that has a coupon that you can use as cash on your next visit to the store....

These lawsuits against MERS are no longer contained to the 23 judicial foreclosure states.
