www.oppenheimlaw.com South Florida Real Estate Attorney Roy Oppenheim discusses the new FL Supreme Court ruling requiring banks to produce the original mortgage note before filing for foreclosure with CBS 4 reporter Stephen Stock. Oppenheim recently wrote on http “Until now, banks have been abusing a Florida statute allowing them to file a foreclosure based on a “lost note.” The problem: the notes aren’t lost; the banks are just too lazy to look for them. This new rule is halting foreclosure filings in their tracks, as banks scramble to find the notes so they can foreclose.”
