Product: Mortgage — Reverse mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Longbridge Financial, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have a loan with Longbridge Financial , LLC in XXXX Texas. When I asked for a refinance of the loan, my mortgage specialist, XXXX XXXX, indicated that I needed to have another inspection and valuation of my house. When that was done, I was told I had to have another inspection and vaulation of my house because the government required it and was doing that on 20 % of all inspectioins. The second came in at a low ball figure, 87.5 % of the original valuation. I was then told I had to close on the lower rate of pay for both of the inspections. I don't know of any government program that requires 20 % of additional work on anything. Since they had my bank card they apparently thought they were in the drivers seat. But, just so happened that my bank change owners and reissued me new cards. Then they had a fraud charge on my account and again reissued me new cards. This seems like a variation on the bait and switch practices I've read about. The final straw was when my mortgage specialist called me, a veteran, on veteran 's day to try an get me to talk about my application. That showed me what kind of organization I was dealing with.
