Mortgage Servicing Rules – Foreclosure
In general, how do the new mortgage servicing rules implemented by the CFPB affect my ability to foreclosure upon a loan secured by a residential dwelling?
![Page 8: West Virginia Bankers Association 2014 Annual Convention Breakout Session: Ask the Experts Panel Panelists: Paul Reynolds David Thomas Christian Gonzalez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dde5503460f94ad6d02/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Mortgage Servicing Rules - Foreclosure
Depends upon whether you are a “small servicer” (service 5000 or less mortgages)
“120 day rule” applies to all banks More strict requirements for larger servicers
Special notices and timing requirements Live contact requirements Loss mitigation becomes more important
Need to review policies/processes
![Page 9: West Virginia Bankers Association 2014 Annual Convention Breakout Session: Ask the Experts Panel Panelists: Paul Reynolds David Thomas Christian Gonzalez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dde5503460f94ad6d02/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Mortgage Servicing Rule - Foreclosure
Do I have to wait until the mortgage loan is 120 days past due before sending a notice of right to cure default and when should right to cure be sent?
![Page 10: West Virginia Bankers Association 2014 Annual Convention Breakout Session: Ask the Experts Panel Panelists: Paul Reynolds David Thomas Christian Gonzalez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dde5503460f94ad6d02/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Mortgage Servicing Rules - Foreclosure
Cannot initiate “first notice or filing” until loan is more than 120 days past due
CFPB clarified it is document that establishes sale date WVCCPA requires at least 10 day right to cure
Also need to look at loan documents/deed of trust WVCCPA: Can’t threaten action prohibited by law May consider sending multiple notices Review policies/automated notices Carefully review/analyze before referring to foreclosure
![Page 11: West Virginia Bankers Association 2014 Annual Convention Breakout Session: Ask the Experts Panel Panelists: Paul Reynolds David Thomas Christian Gonzalez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dde5503460f94ad6d02/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Mortgage Servicing Rules - Foreclosures
Can I foreclose if the borrower is continually in default, but remains less than 120 days delinquent?
![Page 12: West Virginia Bankers Association 2014 Annual Convention Breakout Session: Ask the Experts Panel Panelists: Paul Reynolds David Thomas Christian Gonzalez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dde5503460f94ad6d02/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mortgage Servicing Rules – Foreclosure
CFPB rule reads “more than 120 days delinquent” No guidance/commentary to define Two ways to interpret:
(1) Loan in default for 120 consecutive days
v/s (2) Loan is literally more than 120 days past due
May need to look at loan documents/state law What about non-monetary defaults? Stay tuned!
