We filled out our bank 's short sale/ deed in lieu paperwork in XXXX. We received an offer from a potential buyer in XXXX. Our file has been coming in and out of gatekeeping with US Bank since XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Our attorney has called US Bank every business day from XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and there has been no change in status. We believe that the lender delay is merely a tactic to increase the amount of the underlying arrearage so that US Bank may increase their fees. We wonder if US Bank has a record of this type of glacial processing.
