Due to an unfortunate change in my financial circumstances, I was forced to pursue a short sale of my home. This process began in XX/XX/XXXX. After several months, I was able to obtain approval for the sale from my XXXX lender ( XXXX and XXXX ) in XX/XX/XXXX. I was also finally able to obtain an approval letter from my XXXX lender, Suntrust, on XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ). Right before my closing, my buyer backed out of the sale because of a serious illness in his family. The home was re-listed on XX/XX/XXXX and a new contract was reached with another buyer on XX/XX/XXXX. Almost immediately, I was able to substitute the new buyer and HUD-1 for the old XXXX with the XXXX lender, who was using XXXX to handle the approval. XXXX sent me a new approval letter on XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ) approving the sale, and REQUIRING A CLOSING NO LATER THAN XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, my XXXX lender, Suntrust, determined that the change in buyers amounted to an " all new '' short sale application. I had to provide them with a completely new application form, financial records, tax returns, and more, despite the fact that they had approved the identical transaction on XX/XX/XXXX. Since that time, Suntrust has continually " lost '' documents that have been sent to them, or advised me on XXXX day that XXXX of the pages of the XXXX Uniform Borrower 's Assistance Form had become " hard to read '' or was n't dark enough, and that I needed to resend it, only to tell me the next day that a different line of the same page needed to be darkened. I have sent the XXXX UBA Form to Suntrust, without exaggeration, XXXX times in the past week, and I have talked to them every single day since XXXX XXXX. I have sent them the XXXX approval letter requiring a closing by XX/XX/XXXX on at least XXXX occasions. Each time that I have sent documents to them, I have been told that it will take " XXXX hours '' for them to scan the documents into their system, THEN determine if the documents are " sufficient '' and only THEN will they begin a " XXXX day review '' period. I have been dealing with XXXX XXXX ( XXXXXXXXXXXX, XXXX ) who is very nice but who appears helpless to assist me, despite his appeals to unnamed supervisors. I do not know if what Suntrust is doing is intentional or simply grossly incompetent, but I and XXXX agree that it is unacceptable treatment of a distressed homeowner, particularly when Suntrust itself previously approved this identical short sale on XX/XX/XXXX. If Suntrust 's continued delays push my closing past the XX/XX/XXXX deadline set by XXXX, I have been told by XXXX that it will have to resubmit everything to XXXX, which could delay or even destroy my short sale. This entire process has been incredibly stressful and financially damaging to me, and Suntrust 's actions/inactions have made the situation markedly worse rather than better.
