Yes, but only up to a point. Specifically, once the statutory limit of the license is reached, no additional contract balance above that limit may be recovered.
Our analysis begins with the N.C. General Statutes, specifically Chapter 87-10, which states, in pertinent part, that “the holder of a limited license shall be entitled to act as general contractor for any single project with a value of up to five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000)[.]” We also need to bear in mind that in 1983,… [read post]

Inspired by last night's post, a regular reader pointed me to last Friday's post by Tom Brown, who was off to the races over two recent utterances by high-level CFPB officials. The post's title, "The Beginnings of Overreach at the CFPB. Whatever happened to personal responsibility?" gives you a clue that he and I (and Marvin Umholtz) are singing from the same songbook.
The first object of Tom's ire was Stacy Canan, deputy assistant director of the CFPB’s Office for Older Americans, who… [read post]

NAFCU Compliance Blog's Anthony Demangone was reading an interview with Elizabeth Warren recently and rather than spitting up a little in his mouth, actually agreed with something she said. In this instance, it was about why Warren wants to find ways to make financial product disclosures "simple": "Complex regulations are killing community banks. They can’t afford an army of lawyers to work through the regulatory thicket."
Anthony was all over that lawyer-bashing bitch-slap like he'd just found… [read post]

Five years ago, when The Care Bair womanned the helm at the FDIC and was prodding banks to make payday-like loans to poor consumers, but to cap those loans at a 36 percent APR, most banks who experimented with the products were scratching their heads, trying to figure out how to make money on small loans made at those rates when the borrowers posed such a high default risk. These days, when banks of all sizes are strapped for income-yielding products and are dipping appendages bigger than than their… [read post]

While I was gallivanting about the High Country last week, serving the Prince of Darkness, Housing Wire publisher Paul Jackson was deflating the Hindenburg of anti-bank gasbags, Yves Smith. Paul was writing about a decision in Arkansas in which a judge decided that as long as a loan servicer is a note "holder," it matters not who actually "owns" a note as far as the right to foreclose is concerned. If the borrower is in default, the "holder" of the note can foreclose. In addition, a borrower, not… [read post]

In his latest email newsletter "CU Strategic Hot Topics" (you can email Marvin at marvin.umholtz@comcast.net to be added to the circulation list), Marvin discusses the use of disparate impact to undermine the use of by financial institutions of… [read post]
