"A how-to book on strategic mortgage default." - Orlando Sentinel, December 15, 2010 "Brent White, a University of Arizona law professor who has preached the morality double standard that homeowners face while companies default on loans without so much as a second thought, now makes his case in a book that virtually holds homeowners' hand through the process. He tells them what to consider when deciding whether they should stop paying the mortgage... White even walks homeowners through the math to figure out whether they're better off staying put and or walking away. - Orlando Sentinel, December 15, 2010 |
