Flagstar Bank Loan Deed In Lieu Timeline

Similarly to any company of its size timeline of Deed In Lieu Process varies greatly. Sometimes it varies due to obvious reasons and sometimes it is not clear what is going on. These are just a few of the hoops we jump through when dealing with a deed in lieu with Flagstar Bank.

• To begin with,  Flagstar Bank as is clear from their name is just a loan servicer. They are only working on behalf of what they call as an investor. Flagstar Bank has to follow a set of rules for any process which is called as “PSA” or Pooling and Servicing Agreement that governs the pools of mortgages they service. The PSA is like a  contract between servicer and beneficiary of the mortgage note. Due to these set of rules Flagstar Bank can not always make a decision themselves and for the decision that they are not allowed to make they will have to get approval from the investor. Some investors such as Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FHLMC) have pulled almost all decision making authority from many servicers and take care of many of the decisions themselves. As always the greater the number of hands in the put the more layers of bureaucracy you’re going to deal with.
• Additionally, The fact that whether you loan has a foreclosure date or not hugely effects the timeline of the process. When a sale has to be stopped so that the Deed In Lieu of Foreclosure process can be completed the company can be very difficult to deal with. The sale dates even in the coming week are not worked on urgently as a company like Flagstar Bank has sale dates for every working day of the week. Remember this business is a first come first serve but it is also influenced by foreclosure status and proximity to the sale date.
• Finally, not all negotiators were created equally. This goes for both sides which is what makes the process so tricky. At such a large level of this type miscommunication can lead to certain failure. It is a very specialized skill to represent a homeowner in this niche of Deed In Lieu of Foreclosure process that can be learned only through experience. Often you will be put though the multiple levels of management including approval from an investor as mentioned above depending on what their total losses are for the banking institution who owns the interest in the loan.
