I received notification from Bank of America that my mortgage was increasing over {$400.00} per month due to the program Countrywide placed me and my ex husband on 10 years ago. When I inquired on options they placed me with the loss department advised me to contact bk and or foreclosure attorney and suggested a short sale. I have never been late on my payments and they are saying I need to proof a hardship. They are also stating they will not proceed with my request until my ex husband quit claims the property over to me first even though we have a divorce decree and I was awarded my home in 2008. When I asked why they can not record the deed at closing they stated investor guidelines require the quit claim first.
