My problem is that after I sent the XXXX itemized documents, endorsed check XXXX my signature ), signed roof proposal, and insurance adjusters report. In addition in the mailing, provided plus a notarized building permit application ( between myself and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( a 30 year FL XXXX contractor licence # XXXX ) who does not use sub-contractors. The roof replacement proposal is straight foward at a cost of {$12000.00}, which I believed to be fair for the work and ultimately not require my insurance company paying out the full claim amount. In response to this submmision to OCWEN, which they recieved yesterday on XXXX XXXX, 2015, they unfairly and quite frankly defaulted on the above noted document request and emailed me a XXXX page " monitoring '' document, which is very complex and filled with additional undisclosed document and contract requests of me and the contractor and very likely an unidentified third party. Had this additional burdensom volume of additional information, agreement, and other requirements had been disclosed it is very likely that a contractor would have raised the roof replacement costs associated with the transaction. for example, of XXXX other companies who had patrolled my neighborhood looking for storm related roofing opportunities, XXXX provided a proposal of {$17000.00} for the same job and is not the contractor ( uses sub-contractors XXXX to perform the work. It is inconcievable that OCWEN now requiring me to sign contracts and include the selected contractor to possibly go against my insurance company for additional money perform this repair. This is difficult enough and most certainly will increase my property insurance costs as I have never before in my life filed a claim against an insurance policy for home repair. The insurance company is threatening to cancel the policy, for failure to complete what it has paid for and I ca n't take more time off work to ahndle this now
