"I believe Ocwen has been holding their REO listings while they transition to their own listing system. It was announced several months ago (maybe a year?) that Ocwen would be taking over all of their REO properties and selling them through their own…"
"I did 12 free bpos for USRes with great reviews. I was told that the work was great and I put a lot of time into each one, researched any additional info about the area, etc. I know my values were right on. I was also given the line about being up…"
"I understand the position of many people on this board who feel personally wronged by Megan. We all work very hard for our money and its tough to swallow giving it away to a company who is preying upon eager agents. However, I also understand the…"
"Hey Dan! I know just where you're talking about and I'm probably 5 minutes from there. I work under Modern Real Estate, with about 95 agents currently. If you're ever back in the Denver area, you should look me up and we'll grab dinner!"
"Funny, I have always found their quality control to be VERY realistic. In all of the bpos I've done, they've never asked for any changes to be made. I just make a notation if I needed to deviate from the requirements and they are fine with it as…"
"Michele-
That is my feeling as well. I think the agents who are doing quality, accurate bpos seem to be averaging a listing about every 10-20 bpos, depending on your market. Sometimes it may take a little prodding, but from what I hear they are…"

"I agree! I represent many buyers on REO proeprties in the Denver area and it has become very frustrating for my buyers. We're averaging about 17 offers before the buyer actually receives an acceptance, frequently competing with 10-20 other buyers. I…"
"Suzanne, thank you very much for the insight. I have completed several orders and received 4 more today. I'm a fairly patient person (unless you ask my husband!) so I'm not worrying too much about it yet. I have received orders from about 6…"
"Who is the best person to contact when we are "gently hinting" at the request for a listing? Is it better to ask the people assigning the bpos or should I use the contact us information? Would you recommend calling or emailing and is there someone…"
"Megan-
I appreciate your time here in this forum. Could you elaborate for a minute on what makes ABF different from other companies. not for the agents, but from the bank's point of view. in other words, what does ABF have that will encourage a…"

"Congratulations, Victoria! Its all about the networking and you just never know where you'll be found! Let us know how it goes for you."
"Abf is brand new, so there have not been any listings yet. I was told that they are working twards mid-april for the release of listings.

Thanks for the great info! You have some very valid concerns (most of which I also share). I will definately ask for further info on the number of agents per zip b/c the answer that I received from Marie was that there was a limit of 2-3…"

"Oh, also - my understanding is that the referral fee to ABF is 20% of my commission (3%). This actually totals to be less than the usual 1% fee from most asset management companies.

I, too, have some concerns. I think I would with any new start up. I'm giving it a chance to see how it pans out!
I did want to add a little info to your post, as I have also been communicating with Marie.

"I am currently in the process of signing up with them. Their fees seem reasonable and they seem to have a good concept. I'm a little bummed about the mandatory e-signing only because I already use a company that I am very happy with for e-contracts.…"
