In XXXX, I requested assistance from XXXX XXXX to modify my loan during a severe economic downturn. XXXX XXXX would only offer a 5 yr balloon option. I advised them at the time, that I was in the process of a short sale on my prior home and would not qualify to pay them off in 5 yrs. They stated that as long as I proved I had the ability to repay they would remodify after the 5 yr term. Fast forward to XXXX XXXX, I submitted for remod, XXXX sat on the file till XXXX XXXX, then sold the file to XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they said I had to wait for 60 days till they got the complete file then they would issue me a new remod package. I received that pkg in XXXX XXXX. Completed and resubmitted. They advised me in XXXX XXXX they would no longer accept pmts because the balloon came due in XXXX XXXX. I applied for assistance from the state in hope this would entice the lender to remod. The state said they would provide {$30000.00} but that they could not finalize unless the lender agreed to modify. XXXX did not respond for months but finally told me the investor would not extend the loan because they purchase the file on the secondary market as a fully maturing 5 yr balloon loan. I requested a reconsideration because this was a fraudulent transaction sale as this was sold to me as a balloon with the remod option at the end of 5 yrs. I did not hear back from them. Several months passed and I received notice that Shellpoint Mortgage was now servicing the loan. I requested for the mod pkg. provided all of the items and proof of income to support repayment. They said I cleared underwriting and were just waiting on the investor to determine which remod option was available. This took place in XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX they stated they needed 30 more days. I did not hear from them till XX/XX/XXXX. They declined the remod and gave the option to short sale or deed in lieu the home.
