Complaint narrative:
I was falling behind in my mortgage payment, I received a letter from Caliber Home Loans offering financial compensation for a Deed in Lieu Foreclosure in XX/XX/XXXX. I was hesitant at first because I did not want to lose my home. I received another offer from Caliber for less money that the first one and after reviewing my options, I accepted their second offer ( for less money ) in XX/XX/XXXX. I was told I had until XX/XX/XXXX to leave the property and hand over the keys to a local representative. They offered me an extra week if I needed to to turn in the keys, which I accepted. It was n't until I handed the keys over on XX/XX/XXXX that they told me that they would now have to " investigate '' my personal finances to see if I had other properties and I would have to wait 4-6 weeks. This information was not told to me at the beginning of the process but what could I do, the keys were already turned in. I would call Caliber at least once every week to check on status of the process with little results or information. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter form Caliber Home Loans stating that my application was being held up because records showed there was a junior lien on the home by the state of Arizona. After talking to the state tax department, they assured my that there was not a lien on the home. They did tell me that there was at one time a lien on the home for tax purposes back in XX/XX/XXXX but the lien was released once the back taxes were paid in full. According to the letter I recieved from Caliber, I had 30 days from the date of the letter ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to respond and clarify the problem holding up the process. On XX/XX/XXXX, I faxed the necessary paper work from the county recorders office stating that the lien was released in XX/XX/XXXX over to Caliber. Upon faxing the lien release, I called Caliber to verify that the fax was received, I was told that it was and that a manager would call me later that day. There was not any call from anyone from Caliber that day so I called back on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with the manager about my matter. According to the manager, my application was to be denied even with the lien release being submitted to them way before the 30 days due to the fact that the property foreclosure date was scheduled to be the following Wednesday ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I feel that I did everything asked of me and followed all their directions in a timely manner and before the foreclosure date. There are multiple phone calls that were initiated by myself to see if there was anything that can be done on my side to try to avoid something like this. One of the representatives even advised me to get back the keys and try to negotiate a cash for keys instead of a Deed in Lieu. I feel I was just given the run a round this whole time and I let the manager know. I was told to by the manager to write an email to her boss to see if there is anything that they could do. I have lost faith in the system.
