56) Summary: Need experts for story: Is a "report of available funds" letter from a lender a scam?

Name: Erik Martin The Mortgage Reports

Category: General

Email: query-bp4d@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Mortgage Reports

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 22 December

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin with The Mortgage Reports website
(www.themortgagereports.com). I'm looking to interview real
estate attorneys, lending experts, financial professionals, tax
experts, real estate faculty, and other experts for the
following story:

Is a "Report of Available Funds" letter sent from a lender a
scam? This article will examine how some borrowers are receiving
letters from lenders attempting to get them to refinance/tap
equity on an FHA or VA loan (lender names that show up most
often are The Federal Savings Bank, and JFQ). This story will
suggest how homeowners should interpret and respond to these
letters, which may seem like unsolicited cash-out refinance
offers they should be wary of (for more information/examples,
visit https://tinyurl.com/ycc6cjed,
https://tinyurl.com/y7q4pl32, https://tinyurl.com/ya5ec8jk,
https://tinyurl.com/y7afvwts).

Note that I can only accept full-sentence written responses
(which I can use as quotes) for this article. My deadline for
written answers to these questions is noon central, Tuesday,
December 22, 2020.

QUESTIONS: 1. What does a "Report of available funds"-type
letter mean? How should homeowners interpret this kind of
unsolicited letter/message from a lender? 2. Why do lenders send
letters like this? (E.g., they may be trying to entice existing
homeowners into refinancing, even if they are not the borrower's
current lender) 3. What are "available funds" or "accessible
funds"? What do these terms mean in these kinds of letters? 4.
What should a borrower do if they receive a "Report of available
funds"-type letter or message (e.g., ignore, investigate and
pursue the offer, file a complaint [if so, how?]], etc.)? 5. How
can/should borrowers tap into their home equity safely? (E.g.,
pursue a cash-out refi option, never take an unsolicited offer
at face value, etc.)? 6. What other refinance options can a
borrower pursue here (e.g., they can refinance for a lower
rate/payment and leave their home equity totally untouched if
they want, they can pursue an FHA Streamline or VA IRRRL, etc.)?
7. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 8.
What is your full name, title, company, city/state location, and
email address?
