I stumbled on this posting, I am answering it late, but I do not believe anyone answered the first posters question?
I am an attorney, and I have investigated all the loss mitigation companies and how they started and found out most of them do not have enough or any loss mitigation experience and simply are MLM and have, they just sell the opportunity, and many form conflicts of interest issues that prevented me and other legitimate professionals from joining. There is a company called American Loss Mitigation Consortium that is run by a 21 year old veteran of loss mitigation.
I did my due diligence and found out that most all of these other companies have some sort of direct or indirect connection with this man (Dan Schultz). He still run a private practice and trains counselors, more professional in nature, meaning he only trains those of us that have back grounds in real estate.
I would highly recommend them, and my firm had also joined up with them. I have had a great year in loss mitigation, joined about a year ago. There is a program deposit I paid of $450, but it was refunded after I completed my 4th case, and I get free support, web site, hosting continuing education by the government and no recurring fees and they have a real lead system, no cold calling.
This company is straight forward, very ethical, is the real deal. Good luck to all, their web site is
www.lossmitigationopportunities.comThey also have a pretty good lead generation site:
www.almahelp.comMr. Schultz has a number of articles on the subject and news reports. I googled
loss mitigation articles by Dan Schultz. I hope this information helps those looking into an ethical track into loss mitigation.
