Company: Real Estate Equity Exchange, Inc. d/b/a Unison
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other type of mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
In XXXX of XXXX we entered into a home equity sharing agreement with a company called Unison. Unison 's business model is to provide a loan in exchange for a percentage of the home 's equity. In the disclosure information Unison makes little mention of there being any potential issues with refinancing your property once you have entered into an agreement with them. 

In XXXX of XXXX we secured a refinance loan of our ARM with XXXX XXXX. Our loan was set to adjust in XXXX and interest rates were just beginning to creep up. So we secured and were approved for a refinance at a fixed rate of 3.25 %. 

At the final stage of the new loan being recored we were informed by XXXX XXXX that they could not process our new loan because of our relationship with Unison. We have subsequently learned that very few lenders will refinance a property if the homeowner has taken an equity share loan with Unison. This includes all major lenders ( such as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, etc... ) and any bank affiliated with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. 

In response to our loan being rejected, Unison provided a list of their " approved lenders. '' Upon contacting the top three lenders on their list, all three flatly denied that they would lend to a property that has Unison on title. A Unison representative then setup a meeting with a lender he claimed loaned to Unison homeowners in the past. Not only did this lender state that they never lent to a Unison property in the past, they said they never would in the future, either.

Unison is aware that they misrepresent and downplay the very real fact that the vast majority of lenders will not work with homeowner that have taken an equity sharing loan with Unison. Unison employees have blatantly stated that the company should do a better job of being transparent and honest with potential customers about this fact, and that their contracts distort the truth. 

Unison 's legal department is aware of the problem and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Unison Corporate Counsel, has yet to remedy the situation. Unison 's CEO, XXXX XXXX XXXX, is also aware of the issue and has acknowledge knowing about this lack of truth in lending in both the marketing and promotional materials the company distributes, and it their contracts. Thus far XXXX XXXX has taken no corrective action.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
I entered XXXX program with federal loans upon graduation in XXXX. I was very actively engaged and diligent in tracking paperwork, verification forms and payments on a quarterly basis to ensure I was making qualified payments. In XXXX, I was preparing to transfer to a new company. When searching online to confirm the new company was a qualified organization to continue XXXX for the full 10 years, the website only identified certain locations within my healthcare system as eligible. When I called my Fed Loan Servicer at the time, I was told that my organization was not eligible for XXXX and I could no longer participate. As such, I reluctantly transferred my loans to a private organization to take advantage of far better interest rates, as the program at that time seemed futile and I was expressly told I was no longer eligible. Now, in all recent news, I have renewed my attention toward this problem and discovered that I have, in fact, been working at a participating organization this entire time -- -despite misinformation from Fed Loan Servicing XXXX This should have been on a recorded call and I am hoping this can be tracked down to prove that I was misled into refinancing away from federal student loans. I want my loans reverted to federal loans so that I can complete my PSLF obligation in 2 years, or at least receive a prorated reimbursement for the years that I committed successfully before Fed Loan Servicing ruined my entire career track through misinformation.
