The You 've Earned It Program offered by the Maryland Mortgage Program is in violation of the FTC regulation,16 CFR Part 321 Section ( l ) ( 1 ), due to its deception and unavailability of use. The section clearly states that " an act or practice is deceptive if there is a representation, omission of information, or practice that is likely to mislead consumers who are acting reasonably under the circumstances, and the representation, omission, or practice is one that is material, i.e., likely to affect consumers ' decision to purchase or use the product or service at issue. " The You 've Earned It Program was initiated on XX/XX/XXXX, the terms of the program are still available at the following link : XXXXThe program was then expanded on XX/XX/XXXX, to include Veterans, that announcement was made directly through a press release from Gov. XXXX 's Office : XXXXBased on this program, I decided this would be the perfect assistance I needed to buy a home, I had not considered this an option prior due to my large amount of student loans. So once I became aware of the new program on XX/XX/XXXX, I followed all of the required steps of the program. I acted as quickly as one can in making such large decision, and was able to find a suitable home, and negotiated an offer. The day XXXX have my offer accepted, an offer that was written based on the program at the time of conception, I am told that the You 've Earned It Program has been drastically modified and I am not able to obtain the original benefits.
