Mortgage Servicers Advance Foreclosure While Loss Mitigation Is Active
Mortgage servicers engage in prohibited dual tracking—simultaneously pursuing foreclosure proceedings while a borrower's loss mitigation application is under active review. This violates RESPA Regulation X servicing rules designed to protect borrowers seeking alternatives to foreclosure. The practice exploits enforcement delays and leaves borrowers facing imminent loss of home with no effective protection during the review period.
