Consumer complaint received 05-02-2016 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (RI).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: I have been in my home since XXXX XXXX, faithfully paying my mortgage, did a refinance back in XXXX with XXXX XXXX, house value went up, doubling the worth of the home to {$200000.00} from its original of {$100000.00}. The mortgage industry crashed my home lost half its value. I have tried on at least 3 separate occasion to have the Mortgage service provider modify the loan to reflect the actual value, first attempt was in XXXX due a terrible car accident that had complications I knew I would be in trouble making payments. At that point XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) had taken over my mortgage due to XXXX going belly up. XXXX drug out the process ( all documents attached ), giving me multiple redo 's for unsightly reasons, then finally said I qualified " in conversation '', sent me a XXXX letter saying " Let 's do one more round of paperwork, then 2 days later via another XXXX letter said sorry we sold your mortgage to Ocwen. Basically a 4-6 month process of delays to sell me off after all that work. I then tried with Ocwen, and they said sorry " Mortgage note owner ( which was XXXX ) do n't participate in HARP/HAMP '' or anything to help rectify the underwater situation. OK, that was harsh, they were rude, and either way, I got through my health crisis, caught up and then there 's NOW : I 'm still paying then XX/XX/XXXX I get a payment notice telling me they are doubling my mortgage. I call tell them I ca n't afford that, they ( Ocwen ) do same song and dance about " let 's see what we can do '' and then came back with the same " Sorry NOTE owner ( XXXX ) does not participate, and furthermore, you do n't qualify for any other assistance/consideration, as you are not behind '', and blah, blah, blah. Next they sent me the options of Deed In Lieu or Short Sale. I 've filed a complaint with the Attorney General 's Office, and was also instructed to file a complaint here. In summary, I have paid, missing the few months due to almost XXXX, over {$210000.00} over the past 14+ years, for them to take my home without reasonable negotiation. This is clearly ( to me ) unethical and un-American. What I want is to be recuperated correctly, have them fix the mortgage to rightly represent my actual value, and give me my credit for all these years of faithful payment as this is a mortgage, not rent. At this point, they have it so I owe over {$180000.00} on a home worth {$100.00}, and no credit of 14+ years of faithfully paying my mortgage. If they have it their way, I am out on the streets, credit destroyed for Foreclosure, Short Sale, or Deed In Lieu, and can not afford to purchase another home for some insane amount of time, for something as ridiculous as this. I will attach the documents showing some of the trail, and my most recent letter to the office of the president, and their response. I need you to champion this cause and get me justice as this is very wrong for multiple reasons. Thank you, and I look forward to your interaction.
