Metropolitan Trust Deed

These are good guys!

I take back what I said about Metropolitan Trust Deed Company under AnimalLoverDude. Although Metropolitan Trust Deed did threaten to foreclose on my friend Mike's house, ultimately, they did not. Furthermore, a year later now, and my friend Mike's loan through Metropolitan Trust Deed is now coming due (its a $100k balloon payment) and they are letting Mike refinance into another loan. In the end, they turned out to be good guys.

Wells Fargo would not suuport predatory lending in today's economic climate.How can Metropolitan be held responsible for Wells Fargo's action, they, the lender moved for foreclosure, not Metropolitan.meroplitn has been honest and very reliable for me on sevaral loans. I give them an excellent rating. Otherwise they could not stay in business for 28 years.

These guys seem like PREDATORY LENDERS

These guys seem like PREDATORY LENDERS to me. My friend, Mike, obtained a 100k hard money 9% ALL INTEREST second loan (with a 5-year balloon payment) on his home (worth $700,000) which had a first from Wells Fargo of only $260k. They nabbed about 7% in extra hidden fees at the outset, but what's worse, my friend was only one payment late, and they sent his check back to him, opting to FORECLOSE on the property instead! Seems like these folks are in the business of foreclosing on homes just as much as they are in making predatory hard money loans. If you want my opinion, don't borrow money from these guys.

• Pros: you can get hard money loans here
• Cons: they will foreclose on you if you are even one payment late
