Red Carpet Winners, Short Sales and Oppenheim Law’s March Real Estate Workshop

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011

Join Florida Foreclosure Defense and Short Sale Attorney Roy Oppenheim March 9th at 6 PM.

“Not a single financial executive has gone to jail”…that is how Producer Charles Ferguson rocked the Oscars by starting his acceptance speech for winning best feature documentary for “Inside Job,” a film about the 2008 financial system meltdown. How appropriate.

Meanwhile, Florida real estate is no red carpet winner when it comes to the housing market. Oppenheim Law announces its real estate webinar streaming live Wednesday March 9th at 6 pm, designed to help Florida homeowners use today’s economic conditions to their advantage and fashion their own bailouts.

In this timely workshop, Oppenheim shares fresh insights, including:

  • How the rising price of oil will affect the American job market, and in turn affect the housing market.
  • What these trends mean for Florida foreclosure defense and how homeowners can use these events to their advantage to engineer and structure a short sale.
  • The impact that a sluggish start to the national “selling season” will have on a local level.
  • Why home prices will continue to drop in the months ahead.
  • And how a double dip recession could impact homeowners in the coming months.

Florida real estate is not immune to the financial system melt down or the recent world events, according to Florida Foreclosure Defense Attorney and Legal Blogger Roy Oppenheim.

As revolutionary tremors continue to spread through the Middle East and actual tremors rocked New Zealand with a 6.3 magnitude earthquake, Oppenheim Law offers insight on how these international events could impact Florida’s real estate market as well as sharing the latest legal trends in foreclosure defense and short sales strategies.

Week in Review: Foreclosure Headlines by Oppenheim Law

Friday, January 14th, 2011

Catch our Foreclosure Defense Workshop Replay on Oppenheimlaw.tv! If the first two weeks of 2011 are any indication, we’re in for a roller coaster year for the real estate economy.

From unleashing the Foreclosure Fraud Files to the Ibanez decision that banks had wrongly foreclosed on two homes, the foreclosure defense climate changed hourly.

Oppenheim Law is along for the ride, contributing to both local and national foreclosure headline stories. Roy Oppenheim talked to the Sun-Sentinel twice, first telling business writer Harriet Johnson Brackey he predicts more short sales, loan modifications and “meaningful mediations” will help stabilize housing prices for the first time since 2006.

Oppenheim echoed a similar sentiment to the Dow Jones MarketWatch and financial news service DebtWire: “I am expecting the banks to do fewer foreclosures and to engage in serious conversation in pre-foreclosure with borrowers.”

In an interview later in the week, Oppenheim told Real Estate Writer Paul Owers “The writing is on the wall that foreclosures aren’t going anywhere,” in the story End in Sight for the Foreclosure Epidemic?

Wondering what this means for Florida homeowners? Is 2011 the year of the short sale or the strategic default? Catch the replay of Oppenheim Law’s monthly Foreclosure Defense workshop on Oppenheim Law TV for the next ten days!
