I just read this on ml-implode. Does anyone know if this will affect listing agents in any way? Ayyway, it said they are laying off 3000 and not making anymore loans.

I've had Homecomings Financial REO listings in the past but nothing currently.

Gmac announced they are laying off a total of 5000 and are closing all of their GMAC loan origination offices.
Got that from today's newspaper.

Here's a link to a newspaper article from the Detroit Free Press

Many of my listings are Homecomings/GMAC .. I hate news like this.

But I wasn't counting on listings from new loans anyways, they still have a couple of years of old loans waiting to go bad.
