In a class-action lawsuit alleging bad faith foreclosure tactics, a Massachusetts couple sued Washington Mutual Bank for negligent misrepresentation. In their complaint, the borrowers allege that WaMu foreclosed on their home despite public statements that it would assist distressed borrowers in fashioning repayment plans and other alternatives to foreclosure, as well as statements directly to the Pestanas that it would not foreclose while it considered their application for homeowners assistance. The borrowers filed the lawsuit on behalf of themselves and a class of similarly situated Massachusetts residents to challenge WaMu's lack of good faith during the process of foreclosure.

Welcome to Mortgage-Lending-News.Com. The United States Mortgage Industry is at a crossroads. Hundreds of billions in loans and real estate valuations have been lost due to the sub-prime mortgage crisis. Even worse, billions more are at risk during the first half of 2008, as even more adjustable rate mortgages reset their rates. Hardly a day goes by that we don't hear of a foreclosure crisis in the news. Quite simply, there is too much news for us to keep up with, so we built this Mortgage site, initially as a means for us to internally follow what is going on in the mortgage industry. Now, we are sharing it with you.
