Agent Development Schedule your one-on-one 30 minute consultation with Susan Lewis please call 321-775-8110 Susan will be placing an emphasis on consulting, training and accountability. "Our first consultation focused on developing my action plan for areas I want to improve on for 2015. We covered Farming, FSBO's, Personal Marketing Promotions and effectively using Social Media so I'm not wasting my time. We picked up where we left off in our follow up session and reviewed progress on activities. We also talked scripts/dialogues for "problem" customers. My mindset is in action mode and Susan is helping me stay accountable towards my goals.“ ~ Barb Mihalik "Our meeting with Susan was well worth the time

we spent with her. She opened our eyes to the simple things that we knew we should be doing, but just don't ever seem to find the time to get it done. She gave us some great ideas that we plan on implementing into our 2015 business plan. Thank you Susan for the great one-on-one time!" ~ Lou Ann Janke We promised to never stop looking at ways to improve as a company no matter how successful we become.

Freddie Mac selling $233 million pool of Ocwenserviced loans Freddie Mac announced Tuesday that it is preparing to auction off a $233 million pool of non-performing loans, which are serviced by Ocwen Financial (OCN). Ocwen said in December that it plans to exit agency servicing entirely and has been selling off pools of agency servicing rights by the truckload lately, including the recent sale of a $25 billion MSR portfolio to Nationstar Mortgage (NSM), just over a month after agreeing to sell another $9.8 billion portfolio of agency servicing to Nationstar. Now, Freddie Mac is seeking to sell off a $233 million pool of “geographically diverse, deeply delinquent” nonperforming loans, which are currently serviced by Ocwen Loan Servicing. The move to sell a pool of nonperforming loans is becoming more commonplace for Freddie Mac, which recently announced a new program for auctioning off pools of deeply delinquent non-performing loans from its mortgage investment portfolio. >>Read more
