Revisions to Residential Sale Contract
Approved
Effective Date - April 1, 2016
In This Issue
 News & Notes,
pp. 2‐6
After months of review and discussion the Forms
Committee, under the leadership of its Chairman
Nick Campo and Vice-chair Lorri Conn, has
finalized its recommended revisions to the Residential
Purchase Contract. These changes have come about for a
couple of reasons. First, it has been a number of years since
this contract underwent a major review. Second, it became
imperative to make changes to accommodate the new TILARESPA requirements. The most notable change as it relates to
TILA-RESPA is in the financing section. These changes were approved at the
February 9, 2016 Board of Directors meeting and are currently undergoing legal
review. A number of addenda have been revised as well along with a few new ones
being added. A complete list appears on page 2. The effective date for the use of
the revised contract and addenda will be April 1, 2016.
 Technology/MLS
There will be a number of opportunities for REALTOR® members wanting to
learn more about these revisions. There will be a session for Managing Brokers
ONLY on February 24th from 1:00-3:00 p.m. as well as a number of open sessions
after that.

The Big Short
Some thoughts about the movie, the real story and why it matters today.
by Steve Murray, publisher
First, what a movie, great acting, and storyline. It is worth watching. It makes it look
like it was only greedy bankers, regulators, and underwriters that caused the housing
collapse. There wasn’t a word in the movie about the greed and stupidity of politicians,
and the people running the housing market, those great friends of all of us, Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac.
Were some bankers, underwriters, Wall Street money guys and others out of control and
Steve Murray, publisher
totally concerned only with making money? Absolutely. But, that isn’t the whole story.
Real Trends
Bigger than all of them was the attempt by the Federal government—starting with
President Clinton and extending through President Bush—to push homeownership from
a rate of 64 percent in the early 1990s to 70 percent (the stated goal under Clinton’s administration). And, the
mortgage, real estate, home builders, title insurers and all the rest of the housing industry were in on it as well.
They all knew that the only way to get there was to lower credit standards, lower down payment requirements,
allow others to assist with down payment assistance, etc., etc., etc. We all remember those days.
Community Reinvestment Act
Banking regulators under the Community Reinvestment Act as much as told banks that unless they met lending
quotas to low income communities, they would be restrained from gaining approval for acquisition or expansion.
Fannie and Freddie were both lords over and captive to politicians who wanted more low income family lending as
a political matter. The same politicians conspired with Fannie and Freddie to ensure that regulations under the
Office of Federal Housing Oversight were weak (at best). The same regulators who were supposed to keep a close
eye on the two mortgage giants also had as their second most important task to help more families get into
homeownership.
A Broader View
For a broader view of what caused the housing crash, read “Reckless Endangerment—How outsized ambition,
greed and corruption led to economic Armageddon,” by Gretchen Morgenson and Joshua Rosner. While Lewis’s
book, “The Big Short,” is far more entertaining, Morgenson and Rosner’s book will give you a far greater
understanding of how it really happened. Be prepared to be overwhelmingly offended.
Why bring up this nasty piece of history now? In case you didn’t notice, Fannie and Freddie just launched new
investment schemes that allow them to structure new securities that look a lot like the credit default swaps and
other exotic instruments that caused a great deal of the problems ten years ago. Yep, the same mortgage giants that
lowered standards even after the housing market began to decline in late 2005. They are doing it to keep the pump
primed. You don’t hear anyone screaming about it, do you?
We haven’t even talked about the subprime lending markets for student loans and auto loans. Both are heading
towards the same recklessness that sunk the economy in 2007-2009. Clearly, they are not as large as the mortgage
market (a few trillion instead of many trillions), but it does make you wonder if the politicians and regulators really
learned anything at all. ?

The Nominating Committee will begin working to identify candidates for to serve
as 2016/2017 officers and directors. The Nominating Committee is responsible for
nominating candidates for the following positions: President-elect; Secretary/
Treasurer; and, three 3-year Director terms. Candidates should have shown an
interest in the Association, through participation in committee work and
Association activities. Candidates should be prepared to participate in a brief
interview with the Nominating Committee later this Spring to discuss their
qualifications.
Accepting a seat on the Board of Directors is a tremendous responsibility, however,
the time given offers a great deal of self gratification and is extremely important for
the success of the Capital Area REALTORS®. Serving on the Board involves
attending monthly Board meetings (90 minutes per meeting), supervision over the
affairs of the Board, including the annual budget, familiarization with policies,
Rules and Regulations, Bylaws, represent membership at state and national
meetings, motivate members to participate on committees plus staying informed on
CAR, IAR and NAR policies and procedures. Your help is needed to assemble, an
outstanding group of individuals to serve the Association over the next few years.
If you are interested in being considered for one of the positions, or know of
someone in your office who you feel has exemplified the qualities necessary,
please return the interest form by no later than March 18, 2016 for consideration.
Questions may be directed to Nominating Committee Chairman Mike Buscher

GOVERNMENTAL AFFAIRS
Advocates for Real Estate Campaign
Widely successful
Last fall, the CAR Government Affairs Committee embarked on a new and innovative approach to
generating new contributions for RPAC investments. Dubbed the “Advocates for Real Estate
Campaign” the proposition was simple. Make a voluntary investment of $1,000 to RPAC during the
2015 fundraising campaign and you will be included in the “Advocates for Real Estate Campaign” which is a series
of full-page ads that will run in the March issues of SO Magazine, Springfield Scene and the Springfield Business
Journal. As a member of the Illinois Association of REALTORS®, you are among 44,000 colleagues who care
deeply about how the real estate industry is regulated. Many of our members make voluntary investments to the
REALTORS® Political Action Committee, or RPAC, which promotes the election of pro-REALTOR® candidates.
Last year Illinois REALTORS® raised more than $1,000,000 to help protect your business and private property
rights. These investments are not members’ dues; this is money given freely by REALTORS® in recognition of
how important campaign fundraising is to the political process. Whether your investment is $1,000 or $25 it
important that we support this important initiative.
It may be tempting to look at the relative ease with which you can practice real estate in Illinois and assume that
today’s marketplace evolved naturally, that policy makers had your interests in mind all along. But that’s just not
so. Without your associations’ efforts – local, state and national – you’d be inundated in ridiculous red tape and
legal liability, and your customers and clients would have a steeper climb toward homeownership.
[Contributions to RPAC are not deductible for federal income tax purposes. Contributions are voluntary and are used for political purposes. The amounts
indicated are merely guidelines and you may contribute more or less than the suggested amounts. The National Association of REALTORS® and its state and
local associations will not favor or disadvantage any member because of the amount contributed or decision not to contribute. You may refuse to contribute
without reprisal. Up to thirty percent (30%) may be sent to National RPAC to support federal candidates and is charged against your limits under 2 U.S.C.
