Consumer complaint received 2015-08-11 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
On or about,XX/XX/XXXX, My husband and I, bought our first and only home through XXXX XXXX Mortgage XXXX XXXX , Ks . With interest rate of 9.4 %, 30 year loan, last payment to be, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Amount financed {$40000.00}. Then on or about XXXX to XXXX, XXXX XXXX Mortgage took over our loan. Beginning balance of {$41000.00}, interest rate 9.4 %. Then on or about, XXXX to XXXX, XXXX Mortgage took over our loan. At this time I believe the loan was modified and interest brought down to 8.5 %. Then on or about, XXXX, Aurora Loan Services Inc. took over our home loan. During the time with Aurora the loan was modified to Interest rate of 6.0 %. Then on or about, XXXX to XXXX, XXXX loans took over our loan. With interest rate remaining at 6.0 % as of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Balance of {$37000.00}. Then on or about, in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX took over our loan, principal balance, {$40000.00}, interest rate 6.0 %. Then on or about XXXX, to present, NationStar mortgage took over our loan. With interest rate remaining 6.0 % and principal balance of {$32000.00}. 
I have made attempts at investigating with, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and Nationstar, asking for explanations of how our loan beginning in XXXX to currently XXXX, ( which is approximately 23 years ), could have a balance of {$32000.00}. Meaning we have only paid {$8100.00} in 23 years? But no one is willing or able to investigate our loan thoroughly for accuracy of our payments and credit for those payments. Unfortunately, we were ignorant to believe that banks do n't make mistakes, and we should have balanced our loan payments like we balance our check book. Although, we may have had some life events that caused our less than perfect credit, this loan still makes no sense because I am certain that had we only paid {$8100.00} to our principal balance in 23 Years, we would not still have our home. We are current on our payments as well.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX I applied for & was approved for a loan modification with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The terms of the modification said the loan was approved for 3 years. In XX/XX/XXXX the loan was sold to NationStar Mortgage Co. At the time NationStar acquired the account they immediately increased the mortgage payment citing that there was no record of any loan modification. I intern called XXXX & was told that they were unable to search any of their old records but that NationStar was responsible for abiding by the terms of the agreement. Since I retained copies of the original modification I then faxed the information to NationStar in hopes this would resolve matter. A short time later I received a phone call from NationStar stating that they would NOT adjust the payment & that it would remain at an unfair {$570.00} per month because their records did not reflect said modification agreement. The original modification was supposed to be in effect for 3 years in the amount of {$450.00}. After doing my own research it was determined that XXXX had never filed the proper paper work with the XXXX County Deeds Department. To my understanding these are both predatory lenders who take advantage of the elderly with poor business practices.There has been several class action lawsuits filed against these corporations. I believe further investigation should be done. As older adults on fixed income we should not be taken advantage of by people who prey on the elderly. If there is anything that you can do that can assist me in this matter I would greatly appreciate it.

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX. Our credit was pretty bad at the time, and foolishly we signed for a high interest loan on this car. We have paid $ XXXX since the purchase date. Payoff right now is {$20000.00} plus on an {$18000.00} car! Not one dime has went toward the interest. Every cent has been going to the interest. They refuse to let me talk to someone to tell me why, and make excuses for why it is all interest. There is no possible way to get out from under this loan, or even come close to paying it off. We have had probably 20 car loans during the course of mine and spouses lifetime. NEVER have we ever had a loan where the principal continues to grow, no matter if we were late, early or on time! Please help us!

Complaint narrative:
I have been in a XXXX Short Sale review since last XXXX 2015. I unfortunately had to request a short sale as the modification payment coupled with loss of income made it necessary to sell our home. I received an offer on our home in XXXX of 2015 for $ XXXX, and it was submitted to the bank. Then we received notice that we had to sell via an online bidding with Nationstar. The bidding pricing range was $ XXXX to $ XXXX This occurred on XXXX/XXXX/2015. This process was supposed to have been done to expedite and ensure the home was sold at market value. Another reason we did not get as much traffic was because a lot of buyers did not want to pay for the 5 % buyers premium added to the purchase price. So in XXXX a bid offer was accepted bumping the offer we received in XXXX. Per XXXX guidelines we are supposed to have been given a reply within 30 days. We are now in XXXX and we are still waiting for approval. It has been about 2 1/2 weeks now that we have been waiting for PMI approval. How does this make sense to have the bidding to expedite the process and we are still waiting for an approval. From what I also understand, we should have received a Short Sale Notice, but we have not. I also have people coming to the house saying we are going into foreclosure sale because the foreclosure sale notice is published. This is very stressful and this is why with these lengthy processes and delays we lose buyers or as a homeowner we are mortified by the looming prospect of having our home foreclosed. Again, if the original offer was within the range, why did n't the bank just accept instead of accepting a higher bid, and then having to lower it? With such a long delay, it also makes it difficult to search for a new home to rent because we ca n't really commit and leave the home vacant. All of these situations make it for a very stressful way to live which also causes health concerns. Please assist us in expediting the process so that we may have a dignified closing.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX I was granted a loan modification. After that time my loan was sold to Nationstar. The first three years the mortgage was at 2 % I paid my payment and expected it to go up sometime XX/XX/XXXX to 3 %. I recently received a notice from Nationstar that my mortgage would be changing from 2 % to 3 % and my current payment of {$1600.00} would be changing to {$1000.00}. They even sent me a copy of my modification that specifically stated my mortgage would be raised on XX/XX/XXXX to {$1800.00}. I contacted Nationstar immediately and was once again told that the payment was {$1000.00} via an email inquiry was correct. 
Something is truly wrong if Nationstar can modify-modifications on their own. I do not want to get a notice after a year that they were wrong and I now owe them the difference in the actual payment and what they are changing my payment to {$1000.00}. Please let me know if I have any action against Nationstar and what that would be. The loan number for my mortgage is XXXX and the property address is XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA. XXXX. 
My phone number is XXXX. 
Thank you in advance.

Nationstar filed a 30 day late notice to all three credit bureaus after I was late in XXXX 2016. I paid XXXX 2016 and informed them that I would have to make a double payment in XXXX 2016 for both XXXX and XXXX. I followed through with my XXXX and XXXX payments on XX/XX/2016 and have been current ever since. Nationstar filed a 30 day late notice with the bureaus which has negatively impacted my credit score. Additionally, they called on me to refinance our mortgage since we have equity but declined due to my credit score which was adversely impacted by their reporting.

Complaint narrative:
I have a few complaints about my home and I feel that it was sold to me with undisclosed defects. When we purchased our home, we soon noticed that the roof in the master bedroom had a leak. We also found the original warranty request from the original owner informing the builder of the defect. The builder XXXX XXXX sent a roofer out but the problem is still not repaired. Next we 've recently had a soap dish in our upstairs bathroom break off. When the repair company came out they informed us that any repair made would only be temporary since there was sheetrock behind the shower tile and is was soft and would not hold. The repair company also informed us that sheetrock in the shower is out of building code and should not have been used, that there is a sturdier substance that is made for wet applications and is approved by building code. My attempts to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX to repair have been unsuccessful. So I 'm filing a claim against my mortgage company since : 1. ) The leaking roof was a preexisting problem which I was not made aware of when purchasing the home, 2. ) The sheetrock in the shower is out of building code and should not have been approved and changed before home was sold.

Complaint narrative:
As of XXXX XXXX Nationstar stated to my lawyer, XXXX XXXX, that I have not paid any mortgage payments since XXXX XXXX. Meaning they think I am delinquent for about {$5500.00} ( estimated ) to my mortgage. They filed a motion with the bankruptcy court on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to be relieved from the motion to stay to foreclose on my house. They have tried to do this before in XXXX and due to lack of proof on their end and substantial proof of payments on my end the case was dismissed. Once again I am in the same situation of having substantial proof of payments on my end and they have nothing to support their claims on their end. However, having to go through the hassle time and time again plus the added problems of them not letting me see how they are applying my payments or showing me anything regarding my mortgage. I have sent several requests to Nationstar 's Bankruptcy Lawyer via a certified RESPA Qualified Written Request, Complaint, and Dispute of Debt and Validation of Debt Letter to request that Nationstar give me copies of my mortgage and see how they are handling it, but time and time again they just deny me and send incomplete paperwork. I am beyond frustrated at this point and now I suspect they have done some illegal things with my mortgage if they refuse to give me access. It must mean they have something to hide. Here is my proof of payments through XXXX up to date and, once again, this is complete mortgage fraud.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am levying this complaint against SPS ( Select Portfolio Servicing ), as they are a loan servicer apparently acting on behalf of my actual note holder, in which they keep secret. 
My wife and I are in a state of stagnation with SPS, we have been pushing for a loan modification with SPS since XXXX 2016, we have been more than compliant. 
We have submitted every document they asked for multiple times. 
SPS has engaged in a relentless and classic form of stonewalling, and as they do so they are causing a serious financial dilemma for my family, as we have only been able to afford to pay the principle and interest. Here 's the scenario ; they 'll ask for a document, telling us that this is the last document they need, we always comply, then we here nothing, they go dormant. we contact them asking for the status of the modification, they 'll ask for some document they already received from us. 
SPS has a team of phone answering personnel who run interference for the so called underwriters, whom they claim are the problem ... they will never let us speak to the underwriters, Never! 
I have literally begged them for an viable answer, they know were sinking fast, so there must some sort benefit for them not to comply with us. Please help! I know we ca n't fight them alone, And I know we wo n't last like this. 
Currently with the payment were making the escrow is not being met, and its getting worse. I told this to SPS, they usually reply ; sorry ... 
PLEASE HELP US..
