“Effective September 1, 2020, How Does California’s AB 3088 Impact Your Loan Servicing?”

If you service even one residential loan in California, you must we aware of these new laws. This session walked through the requirements of AB 3088, explored some of its most ambiguous provisions, and provided the tools to identify covered loans in a servicer’s portfolio.

“Understanding Lender's Right to Recover Attorney Fees Under California Law”

After successfully defending litigation brought by the borrower, lenders have traditionally been able to move for a judgment of attorneys' fees against the borrower. Two recent decisions by the California Court of Appels severely restrict this practice, limiting the lender's ability to recover attorneys' fees against the borrower. This webinar explored those decisions and alternatives that are available to the lender to still recover their cost of defense, in addition to understanding in what circumstances a lender can add attorneys' fees to the loan or move for a separate judgment against the borrower.

“U.S. Supreme Court Rules that the Non-Judicial Foreclosure Process Does Not Constitute "Debt Collection" Under the FDCPA”

Historically, the non-judicial foreclosure process was considered beyond the coverage of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). In the last few years, however, decisions from the federal appellate courts questioned this assumption, with some courts concluding that the FDCPA does indeed apply to non-judicial foreclosures. The United States Supreme Court recently stepped in to resolve the conflicting interpretations of the FDCPA and issued its opinion in the Obduskey case, ruling that the non-judicial foreclosure process does not constitute "debt collection" under the FDCPA. This webinar examined the Obduskey decision and its far reaching impact on lenders, loan servicers, and foreclosure trustees.

“2019 Updates to California's Homeowner Bill of Rights Statutes: Are You In Compliance?”

California's Homeowner Bill of Rights statutes, with original versions enacted in 2013, were modified effective 2018 and 2019 and set forth pre-foreclosure and foreclosure servicing requirements for loan servicers. This webinar reviewed how those statutory provisions have changed and how the changes impact your organization as servicer and/or owner of residential mortgage loans. These California statutes include private rights of action for violations and are in many cases more borrower-friendly than applicable federal loan servicing statutes, so they must be addressed in conjunction with the CFPB Rules to ensure compliance at the state and federal level.
