I originally purchased a home with a mortgage from Countrywide which was then purchased by Bank of America. A little while after the purchase my wife lost her job and I tried to be proactive and work with the lender. I was told they would n't negotiate with us until we were pass due and to stop making payments. Then I called them after I was XXXX days past due and they told me not to send any payments unless it was in full and they would send me a packet. I completed multiple packets with them to restructure the loan and was told they lost the information or never received it. We got so far behind we attempted a short sale. We had a reasonable offer on the table and the lender refused it. XX/XX/XXXX we had a court hearing where I told their attorney and the judge we just wanted out of the home so we could start over. I was told the foreclosure sale would happen XX/XX/XXXX. We moved out of the house in preparation for that but the foreclosure never happened and over XXXX years later they still have n't done anything.
