Palm Springs, Orange County California Real Estate Lawyer and Realtor Discusses the Real Estate Crisis and Lawsuits in the Wake of the Credit Crunch

In Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Garden Grove, Palmdale, Corona, Escondido, Orange, Fullerton, Costa Mesa, Victorville, Carlsbad, Temecula, Murrieta, Mission Viejo, El Cajon, Vista, Westminster, Santa Monica, Santa Barbara, Hesperia, Newport Beach, Buena Park, Indio, Coachella, Chino Hills, San Diego, Orange County, Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Long Beach, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Riverside, Chula Vista, Irvine, San Bernardino, Huntington Beach, Fontana, Moreno Valley, Oceanside and all across Southern California and the nation, if you own real estate, you’ve seen the value of your home get a short haircut and your investment in the stock market has fallen through the basement.

While most real estate attorneys and lawyers are feeling the economic slowdown just like the rest of the country, some lawyers, real estate and bankruptcy lawyers among them, are seeing a host of clients seeking to file new lawsuits and filings in the wake of the credit crunch. And while the stock market may have a sharp rebound sooner or later, the real estate market is going to crawl back much more slowly.

Calls are pouring in to California real estate attorneys and CA property lawyers for help to fight foreclosures or to file foreclosure actions, for bankruptcies filings, landlord-tenant problems, homeowner association issues, contractors struggling to understand how their bank could cut off their credit in the middle of construction, individuals having their credit card limits slashed, and real estate buyers seeking help to get out of contracts and mortgages.

“I need help to save my home,” is a common plea all attorneys are hearing. It is painful to tell such callers how limited their options are.According to a recent report, the latest problem is that delinquency rates are now rising dramatically on construction loans for single family homes.

Consequently, builders and contractors are filing lawsuits against their lenders for the damages they are suffering from this freeze in credit.More sub-prime related suits have now been filed in the 18 months that ended June 30th than in the savings and loan crisis of the 1990s. Class-action sub-prime related suits are soaring.

Class action lawsuits in California have been filed against some of the largest and now failed institutions alleging that their disclosures were misleading or that they practiced discriminatory lending practices.

It is expected that construction defect cases will be on the rise as well as builders try to cut corners to be able to make even a little profit on construction projects that have gone sour.There is, however, no quick relief for anyone filing such lawsuits. The courts are jammed and the State of California has little money to hire new judges. Criminal lawsuits take precedence and in some jurisdictions, only lawsuits running up against a requirement that they be resolved in five years are being sent to trial.

Every day, it is reported that a new wave of litigants or people are being affected by the economic crisis, whether it is people with prime as opposed to sub-prime loans, or people who are no longer able to obtain credit and who can no longer borrow money on their credit cards.

No matter what Congress does or doesn’t do, the fallout from this crisis will last for many years and create a substantially different climate for business and real estate for the foreseeable future.

California Realtor

California Real Estate Agent John-Robin Middlebrook Sells real estate online in less than 4 months.

Though real estate has been around forever, I can remember when “Netscape” became the official web browser and “Yahoo” email was just a thought of the imagination. I was a freshman and first teaching web design at the University of Southern California at the time. Back then, the Internet was born and I was there to watch it unfold from the beginning at a high tech academic institution. We used telnet to open our emails and C, the most rudimentary computer language, was the computer language of choice for computers at that time. Today, more than twelve years later, as a real estate and Internet specialist I provide world-class realty services to help real estate agents, sellers and buyers across the nation sell their California home sales, California land sales, and California commercial property lease and sales faster than ever before! I have never had an expired listing and all my listings have sold from as little as 1 day to less than 4 months.


My California real estate agent sales experience includes a solid background of “A” quality companies including Keller Williams Realty in California (I have worked for several franchises), Century 21 Beachside CA, and Remax International. All of these brokerages have achieved superior recognition for being the highest grossing real estate sales companies in the world. Also my latest franchise, Keller Williams Realty, was voted the 66th company of the top 500 franchises by Entrepreneur Magazine (Remax is listed 8th). I also have a network of real estate agent connections from Prudential, Coldwell Banker, ERA, and Realty Executives. My territories include: Imperial County, Kern County, Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura and beyond. Please contact me today to get started.


California Real Estate Agency Experience

Keller Williams Realty in California and I crossed paths in December of 2005. My first experience toward becoming a California Keller Williams real estate agent was in Los Alamitos, Orange County, Southern California. I have enjoyed being a Christian realtor since 2002 and I look forward to working with other sellers, buyers, and realtors of all beliefs outside of California. Actually, the first day I was introduced to Keller Williams Realty I signed in Norwalk, Los Angeles County, Cal. When I sell a California home I go all out and I closed one deal on a Whittier home in that agency in the second month while my first broker at Keller Williams in Norwalk chose to relocate his agency to a bigger office location in Santa Fe Springs next to La Mirada, close to Biola University, California. Shortly thereafter I made a move to become one of the Keller Williams Long Beach agents in Bixby Knolls. Once at the Keller Williams Long Beach CA office I managed to have one family set up to relocate out of a beach vacation home in Miami Florida with the help of a great Keller Williams Florida referral agent. Then I made a move to the Keller Williams Realty Long Beach Coastal office closer to the beach right across the street from where I was first introduced to California real estate sales at the Century 21 Beachside office in Naples in 2002 and I opened escrow on a new deal at the Keller Williams Long Beach Coastal office on the second day.


I have had encounters with agents from the Keller Williams Realty franchise in Los Angeles, Huntington Beach, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Cerritos, Norwalk, La Mirada, Long Beach, Seal Beach/Los Alamitos, Whittier, Orange, Anaheim, City of Industry, Brea, La Habra, Al Hambra, Monterey Park, Santa Monica, Newport Beach, Laguna Hills, San Clemente, Mission Viejo, Santa Ana, Stanton, Westminster, Cypress, La Palma, Pasadena, Lancaster and Kern County, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura County. These are the cities for Keller Williams real estate Southern California close to my area: Beverly Hills, Cerritos, Downey, Glendale, Hermosa Beach, Lakewood, Hollywood, Brentwood, La Mirada, Los Angeles, Westside Los Angeles, Los Feliz, Marina del Rey, Northridge-, Norwalk, Antelope Valley, Palmdale, Pasadena, Palos Verdes, Keller Williams Realty Redondo Beach, Santa Fe Springs, Santa Moni, Studio City, Torrance, Santa Clarita, Valencia, Woodland Hills, Huntington Beach, Irvine, Los Alamitos, Mission Viejo, San Clemente, Chino Hills, Corona, Norco, Rancho Cu monga, Redlands, Riverside, Temecula, rlsbad, San Diego, Escondido, La Mesa, Santa Maria, marillo, Simi Valley and Keller Williams Realty Thousand Oaks California, CA.


Former Agencies: Remax and Century 21 in California

As a California realtor working for Remax I helped a family relocate from California to Arizona. They moved from Garden Grove in Orange County California to Mesa Arizona. For that property I received the highest sales price in the city of Garden Grove within a 4 mile radius for 6 months for a 3 bedroom 2 bath house in 2003, during a seller’s market! I also sold the home next door as a Remax relocation realtor in Southern California at the time. My first California real estate referral was with a Remax realtor from Texas. I also did a California relocation referral with a Remax real estate agent in Atlanta Georgia and one with a Remax agent in Delta Colorado. Before I started at Keller Williams or Remax I started selling real estate in Southern California at Century 21 Beachside with offices in Brea, Chino Hills, Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach, Laguna Niguel, Long Beach (Naples), Mission Viejo, Rancho Cucamonga, Upland, and Whittier.


I look forward to opening my own California real estate brokerage in the future.
