Subject: [cdcbaa] Whether a loan app expressing intent to dip into an IRA to
pay the mortgage jeopardizes the IRA exemption?
Listmates,
The procedural posture of this question is unusual. Client has no plans to
file BK. Rather, she is buying a condo and asked whether it is "OK" to sign
a letter requested by the mortgage broker.
The client is semi-retired, has limited income ($2K/mo) and a large IRA
($1M). To compensate for her low income, she was told that she needs to say
that she intends to dip into the IRA at the rate of $6.5K/mo. The broker
asked her to write a letter expressing this intention. Also the loan
application shows IRA withdrawal of $6.5K/mo as income.
(1) Would such statements (A) in the loan application and (B) in the letter
jeopardize the IRA exemption in the event this client needs to file BK?
(2) This is a California purchase-money 1st mortgage, so the lender would
not be entitled to a deficiency after a foreclosure. However, in a
jurisdiction that allows a deficiency judgment post-foreclosure, would the
IRA exemption be compromised as a result of the above statements re: intent
to dip into the IRA to pay the mortgage?

As to purchase money in CCP 580B, the lender may sue the borrower for fraud in
persuading the lender to make the loan in the first instance.
