Hi Larry:
The policy stems from the fact that the only loan a debtor is required to reaffirmed is an automobile. The rest of the reaffirmations are voluntary. Most attorneys don't sign off on real property (and auto) because of the possible liability back to the attorney who signed off on the agreement if later the client defaults and it really was a hardship on them.omeone needs to protect the Debtors from themselves, so much can go wrong and the debtor has already played the bankruptcy card so they will loose their property and be liable for the deficiency balance.

I have seen numerous references on this list serve that our judges dont approve real property reaffirmations or something similar. I have told several clients this because the real property reaffirmation demands seems to be coming up more often.
My question; where do I find this policy, is this policy written down anywhere? I cant find any such reference in the Judicial Practices Survey or the local rules. The only mention I can find in the code is at 524(c)(6)(B); which seems to apply to pro se debtors.

This has been common. I would send a letter advising them of the court's policy in the CDC.

Check with Pat Pinto at OC Legal Aid to see if your HO qualifies for refinance. They you will know if signing the reaff is a good idea.

Has anyone had any experience with a debtor having the obtain reaffirmation first, before the lender even considers reaffirming a mortgage loan? Lender in my case, a credit union not the subject of HAMP or The AG Mortgage Settlement, wants my clients to reaffirm a first and second mortgage loan on their primary residence before the Credit Union will consider modification of both loans.
I think this is down right Byzantine. Concurrent reaffirmation with modification is fine with me, but if the client cannot ultimately cut a good deal on modification, but was first required to reaffirm,the client has remarried the bride only not to consummate the marriage thesecond time.
Sorry for the metaphor. I just found myself with a lack for the right words at the moment.
