Consumer Narrative
When we ( my husband and I ) initially purchased the house it was with XXXX XXXX and a month after we closed on the house, it was sold to Shellpoint/Newrez. The house was constructed in XXXX, they paid the taxes of the property in XXXX, which did not include the new information of the house. They returned money to us, from the escrow account in XXXX for {$3100.00}. I called the mortgage company to find out why they sent us this check, since we are first time home buyers, they said it was because it is an FHA loan, the amount in the escrow account for the insurance and taxes could not exceed over {$50.00}. Due to an error on the mortgage company 's behalf, around the beginning of XXXX they lowered our mortgage from {$1300.00} to {$1100.00}. As a result, we contacted the mortgage company to inquire why the mortgage payment decreased. The mortgage representative informed us that there was a payment error and related what the correct amount would be in order to pay the loan, taxes and insurance on the house at the end of XXXX. As a result, the mortgage company paid the taxes on the house and this included the construction cost of the house. The mortgage company paid {$3000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. When we attempted to make the payment on XX/XX/XXXX, we realized that our Mortgage payment increased substantially from {$1100.00} to {$1500.00}. We immediately contacted the mortgage company the same day and advised them that this is causing a financial hardship. Due to the fact that we had no knowledge that the mortgage payment would increase substantially and furthermore ; this was not an error committed on our behalf. The error being that the mortgage company failed by sending us a check without first accurately verifying how much we would be responsible for paying taxes on the house within our county. The mortgage company advised us that they would be conducting an investigation and that they would would be following up with us within 5 to 6 business days. Unfortunately, it has been 7 business days and we have not received any type of update or notification on the matter.
