MASSACHUSETTS ATTORNEY GENERAL HITS FAY SERVICER HARD : $3.2m SETTLEMENT AGAINST THE MORTGAGE SERVICER FOR MASSIVE DECEPTIVE PRACTICES

 


The Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Masschusetts has hit the Chicago-based dodgy mortgage servicer, FAY SERVICING, with a $3.2m penalty, for multiple violations of state laws on unnecessary foreclosures. Fay failed to make a good faith effort to assist borrowers saddled with unfair loan terms. It intentionally and deliberately prevented borrowers from obtaining needed loan modifications, resulting in foreclosures that never should have been filed.

We have previously documented case after case where Fay's conduct with respect to borrowers whose accounts were assigned to it for servicing, was conducted in bad faith. with the obvious intent of foreclosing upon homeowners, many of whom then lost heir homes through Fay's misconduct. 

Fay must now:

(1) Pay Massachusetts a $500,000 civil penalty.

(2) Homeowners affected by Fay Servicing misconduct will receive $2.7m forgiveness of principal for eligible loans.

(3) Make major changes to its business practices.
