God forbid someone with an education and the consumer's well being in mind should help figure out how to get out of the mess the bank created.
Much better that the same bank that screwed these people many times over now gets yet another opportunity to screw them again with the government's help. -

Given the track record of the banks, I'd say they need close scrutiny. Whether or not a judge has the qualifications for this type of activity, I couldn't say. Not enough information about what their exact role would be.

I do know this; if judges are allowed to undervalue homes, it will affect ALL mortgage holders, and their equity.-

They wouldn't be undervaluing them. They'd be valuing them at market rate.
Believe me, if all those homes go into foreclosure, your house value will plummet a LOT faster.

If the buyer did not understand, why did they sign. Arms are easy to understand you pay less now when it resets in 2-3 years your payments are higher. Ballon payments, low for 5-10 years they you own the lump sum. interest only, negative balance(amortization) no principle paid.... It is not rocket science, just greed from buyer sand sellers

This mortgage mess started long ago. The largest equity funds started losing money on bad investments hopelessly funneling money from taxpayers & stock holders. Mostly robbing from Peter too pay Paul. This was done to hide their taking money that didn't beklong to them. In other words: Insider trading. The only real cost of a house is what somebody will pay to buy the home. An appraisal is somebody's professional opinion on a homes worth. Higher appraisals = more money in property taxes, better home services, making money for various business men. The value might change that day or the next evening, fire or wind damage, etc. ect.. Most appraisals are good for 6 months. Now FHA wants to keep banks & mortgage brokers from contacting appraiser. FHA wants that responsibilty. The government encouraged banks to loan money in poor neighborhoods, for the purpose of obtaining votes & to give many americans the home ownership dream.
