I contacted BOA XX/XX/XXXX to let them know we wanted to short sale the home. I was told we had to apply for and be denied a modification first. I provided the requested documents, was contacted for more documents, and this cycle continued for five months. Despite sending in a requested letter of explanation on my situation in XX/XX/XXXX, and requesting a short sale, NOT a modification, my file remained in review for modification until XX/XX/XXXX. I 've heard multiple stories about the process to get this done and have received bad information, faxes and emails were " LOST '' phone calls NOT returned, etc., all to find out I am still in the beginning stages of NOTHING. All the while, I have a contract for purchase on my home that was signed months and months ago. Most recently, my real estate agent was asked to open a file in equator and when she attempted to do so, was unable to due to " lender placed property is already active '' error message. She reached out to BOA for help in getting access to my property in equator to move this along, and after several messages to XXXX people ( XXXX XXXX - XXXX ext. XXXX. His manager is XXXX XXXX - XXXX ), they still have not received a call back. The first message was left on XX/XX/XXXX ( SEVEN days prior to today ). I have also called the manager referenced above ( XXXX XXXX ) and have not received a call back. I have done everything in my grasp to make this situation right, and it 's dragging out longer every time I turn around. I can never speak to the same person at BOA and get different information almost every single time I call. With a check of the phone conversations ( which are recorded ) you can see the different stories I have been given. You can also look at the log of information BOA requested, and notice how quickly I have provided everything they ask for, sometimes more than once. The buyer who placed a contract on my home has to move from his current home XX/XX/XXXX. We are nearing that date and he is going to walk away if we can not make some headway here. This company is disorganized, lacking in basic knowledge and completely lacking in efficiency. I am seeking a manager or leader of some sort who can help me through this process. It has been over seven agonizing months of chasing my tail. While I understand a short sale can take time, unfortunately, I have n't even made it to that department yet due to sheer incompetence. Thank you for any help you can provide.
