Mortgage servicers impose force-placed flood insurance across multiple loans simultaneously, disrupting the payment process and overcharging borrowers. Consumers cannot make regular payments while the insurance dispute is unresolved.
Mortgage Servicers Place Excessive Force-Placed Insurance Above Legal Limits
Mortgage servicers place force-placed flood insurance on properties at amounts exceeding statutory maximum coverage limits, creating illegal overcharges. Servicers ignore repeated customer calls and documentation, leaving homeowners paying for unlawful insurance coverage.
Inaccurate Flood Zone Data Forces Homeowners Into Unnecessary Insurance
Mortgage servicers mandate flood insurance based on FEMA flood maps that incorrectly include properties located in non-flood zones, and provide no meaningful process for homeowners to contest the determination using precise structural coordinates. Homeowners are caught between insurance requirements they legally cannot satisfy at the mandated coverage level and servicers that refuse to conduct manual reviews.
Mortgage servicer force-places duplicate wind insurance creating negative escrow balance
NewRez force-placed a wind insurance policy on a property already covered for wind under an active homeowners policy, with no legal basis under RESPA. The duplicate insurance charge created a large negative escrow balance and substantially increased monthly mortgage payments without borrower consent or notice. The borrower now faces an escrow crisis caused entirely by the servicer's unauthorized action.
Loan Servicers Failing to Remove Prior Owner Insurance After FHA Loan Assumptions
When consumers assume FHA loans, servicers fail to remove the prior owner insurance policy from escrow, resulting in double insurance charges that deplete escrow accounts. New owners are billed for coverage they do not benefit from alongside their own valid policy. This operational handoff failure in loan assumption processing creates immediate financial harm.
