Reaching resolution requires navigating multiple institutions with no clear accountability. This exposes homeowners to penalties and credit damage from errors entirely outside their control.

Mortgage servicers miss escrow tax payments and bill consumers for the penalties

This is a recurring operational failure with no servicer accountability mechanism.
