      Mortgage transferred to lake view 3 Yrs ago by previous lender. Lake view has failed to include property taxes last 2 yrs resulting in escrow shortage. (Taxes are unchanged for the last 8 yrs). Resulting in monthly mortgage payments increasing $1000 since they took over the loan. Interests rates are too high to refinance elsewhere.

Lakeview is a master servicer and reputable lender who takes these matters very seriously and will work in good faith to resolve any misunderstandings with a customer, as we always want to provide excellent customer service.

      ********************** is the owner of the mortgage servicing rights (MSR) for this loan.

We do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to further explain.

      LoanCare reviewed the customers account and found that at the time of transfer the tax information was not updated according to their escrow account. Tax research has been completed and LoanCare can confirm that all taxes have been paid. The tax information has been properly updated and all future taxes will be paid accordingly.

To assist the customer LoanCare has spread the escrow shortage over 24 months instead of 12 months to reduce the pressure of having a higher monthly payment.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      better than nothing, sure. Still reflects an increase in my mortgage payment due to lakeview error.

      my mortgage payment has increased twice during my time with lakeview. and I don't believe that tax info wasn't provided for 2 years (at the time of transfer and the subsequent year?) and no guarantee the mistake won't be repeated at years end.

      Re: BBB Rebuttal Response to Consumer Complaint Notification

      Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. We reached out to the subservicer LoanCare to assist with providing a response to your BBB rebuttal, as they are servicing the account on behalf of **********************. We apologize for this inconvenience and LoanCare has advised there are no delinquent taxes on your property. All necessary corrections to include the appropriate amounts for your future taxes and insurance are included in your escrow account.

      LoanCare attempted to reach the customer on May 28, 2024, and May 31, 2024, and June 11, 2024, to further discuss their escrow account concerns, but was unable to make contact to discuss their account. LoanCare has spread the escrow shortage over 24 months instead of 12 months to reduce the monthly payment obligation. The new monthly mortgage payment is in the amount of $2,177.51.

      An escrow analysis takes place once a year which can result in mortgage payment increasing or decreasing based off the analysis. LoanCare sent copies of the customers escrow analysis statements from their prior servicer On Q financial and the last two analysis statements done by LoanCare.

      Lakeview will consider this concern resolved based on the actions of the servicer. Lakeview also made call attempt with no success.LoanCare sent a resolution email containing their detailed resolution letter. If you or the customer have any additional questions regarding this matter, please contact *************************** at LoanCare.

      The purchase agreement states the Mobile Home title will not be given however, months after the property was sold to me. LAKEVIEW Loan serving applied for and received the mobile home title in their name. It was mailed to an address in *******. We purchased the property in March 2023 and Lakeview was granted a mobile home title from New ********************* of ***** Vehicle in November 2023. Which means Lakeview applied for the title to the Mobile Home after the mobile home was sold to me. I have been dealing with multiple people and no one seems to know what is going on. I'm looking for the Mobile Home title and Bill of sale to be signed and sent to me immediately.

      I am rejecting this response because: If I choose to accept it will close the complaint when the Vendor is asking for more time. Although I understand it takes time to do research I have been in contact with the company since April regarding this matter with no resolution.  It is rather simple, Lakeview applied for and received the Mobile Home title in their name months after Lakeview sold the Mobile Home to me. Send me the signed title to the mobile home with the bill of sale from NYS ********** of ***** Vehicles also signed.

      Lakeview Loan Servicing sent me a late notice even though my mortgage had been scheduled on time. I scheduled another payment seeing as the portal on their website has been reformatted countless times and I was afraid my initial payment had not been processed. Once I saw that both amounts were drafted and one was processing, I reached out to them to stop the second payment. They said they were unable to do so, but I could get a refund once it cleared. The next day, I called and requested the refund as I was instructed. They requested a bank statement to see that funds cleared, and I did provide all information that was requested. They are now sending me the same default email requesting all the information I have already provided and that it will still take ***** days to process if and when they accept my proof. Any other mortgage servicer we have used have immediately refunded us any amount when made in error. They are illegally holding our money and there has been no follow up for resolution.

      Business Response

      Date: 05/24/2024

      We requested the assistance of the servicer LoanCare to assist with providing a response and resolution to your double payment concerns. LoanCare prepared a letter addressing your concerns. Below is a recap pf the response:

      Our records indicate two payments were processed in May 2024, which satisfied the May and June 2024 payments. We have reviewed the proof of payment you sent in for a refund of one payment. Per our conversation on May 16, 2024, we discussed forms of adequate proof of payment, as we must confirm funds have cleared your bank account,prior to returning them to you. During a more recent conversation on May 22,2024, you advised you elected to allow both payments to remain as they are, and the account paid ahead. Therefore, no further action will be taken by LoanCare.

      nature of dispute is release of insurance funds, and taking them taking payment, company is refusing payment citing error on their end (a routing number was input wrong causing a non-payment) and now am not allowed to make phone payments and being charged fees while also being made to pay a third party to make payment. this all stems from an insurance claim that was filed in January, funds have not been released, and placed in an escrow account.

      Business Response

      Date: 05/22/2024

      We requested the assistance of the servicer LoanCare to assist with providing a response and resolution to your concerns regarding your returned payment concerns and insurance claim concerns. LoanCare prepared a letter addressing your concerns.Below is a recap pf the response:

      We have reviewed your concerns with the three returned payments on your loan.

      The first payment made on December 18, 2023, was returned on December 27, 2023, for insufficient funds.
      The second payment made on February 26, 2024, was returned on March 1, 2024, as cannot locate account.
      The third payment made on March 18, 2024, was returned on March 20, 2024, because your bank account   was frozen.

      Once two payments have been returned in a 6-month period, we are required to have certified funds as the only form of payment for the following 6 months. We have removed the certified funds requirement from your loan. Please be advised that if there are any additional returned payments the certified funds requirement will be placed back on the account. An account history is enclosed for your review.

      Regarding your insurance claim funds, we can confirm that the claim funds for $8,042.02 have been received and are in a restricted escrow account. Due to the delinquent status of the loan at the time the claim funds were received, the insurance claim is being handled in a monitored status. On March 13,2024, we released the initial draw check for $4,201.02.

      On April 22, 2024, we issued a follow-up letter as we have not received any updates on the repairs to your property, nor has an inspection been requested. We have enclosed a copy of this correspondence for your review.

      I inquired about doing a mortgage recast. I explained that my funds for the recast would be available on June 18th (290K). I was advised to pay the $500 recast fee along with wiring $10,000 in order to get the process started. I was advised by 3 different customer service reps that I would be OK wiring the additional funds at the end of June and that they would be included in the recast. I submitted the recast fee and the $10,000 on May 1st, 2024. I was now advised by a 4th customer service person that they would only recast on the $10,000. I explained that this wasn't the intention and I spoke to multiple other people who told me different information. Review the call logs.This company is unresponsive to emails and no one at the main customer service line comprehends the situation. I am unable to speak to ANYONE who can help me.

      Hello, I am a 20 year disabled veteran on a fixed income who filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy in June 2023 due to a divorce. My bankruptcy discharge was granted on October 2023 and closed in April 2024. During this time I called Loancare/ Lakeview numerous times in 2023 and 2024 trying to get access to my account because I did not like not knowing what was going on with my account because I wasnt receiving ANY information .I was told by Loancare/ Lakeview representatives all correspondence was sent to my attorney PO Box which I told them was not happening according to my attorney. During these numerous phone conversations not once did any of the numerous representatives I spoke to alerted me my home went through two different analysis which caused my fixed rate mortgage payment to go up twice (January and April) or there was a balance due since January. Now I am being charge an additional $263 in late payments and fees for a lack of communication by Loancare/Lakeview which is a gross of negligence. The only reason I knew about this was because I finally received correspondence in April 2024 stating my payment was due which was confusing because I have automatic drafts from my bank coming out every month because I have documented memory loss due to my military service.All additional payments and late fees during my bankruptcy due to Loancare/Lakeview lack of communication needs to be dismissed immediately! I feel this was done intentionally because the mortgage knew there was no communication which was a way to take advantage of me. I have NEVER been late on my current or past mortgage payments which is disappointing that a mortgage would do this to a customer. If this isnt resolved immediately as soon as I can refinance I AM GONE! I am very responsible and resourceful. I have never allowed a mortgage company to lock me in especially one that chooses to do this.A letter from my attorney office is attached!

      Lakeview Loan Servicing,LLC (Lakeview) is in receipt of the recent complaint filed by *************************** through the BBB. We appreciate the opportunity to respond. Lakeview is a master servicer and reputable lender who takes these matters very seriously and will work in good faith to resolve any misunderstandings with a customer, as we always want to provide excellent customer service.

      ********************** is the owner of the mortgage servicing rights (MSR) for this loan. However, please know that Lakeview contracts with various subservicers to perform the day-to-day servicing activities for our mortgage loans. In this instance, LoanCare, LLC (a non-affiliated and separate company) subservices this loan on Lakeviews behalf.Foremost, we hear and understand your frustration. We do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to further explain.

      LoanCare research confirms their records indicate that the borrower entered Chapter 7 bankruptcy on June 27, 2023. Since bankruptcy guidelines require disclosures that are not outlined on LoanCares website, online access is restricted while active in the bankruptcy. When an account is in bankruptcy, LoanCare stops all collection acts and foreclosure efforts and halts contact with the debtor in any way unless required under mortgage servicing guidelines.

      To ensure that LoanCare comply with bankruptcy and mortgage servicing guidelines, LoanCare modify the mailing
      address to reflect the debtors counsels address as listed on the bankruptcy docket. While in active bankruptcy,LoanCare must receive written approval from the bankruptcy attorney to change the mailing address.

      The bankruptcy was removed on April 2, 2024, and updates were completed in LoanCares internal servicing system to the mailing address which matches the property address. The prior online restriction has been removed. Prior to the bankruptcy, the borrower was enrolled in electronic statements. Future Monthly Statements, and Annual Escrow Account Disclosure Statements will be available electronically unless the borrower opt out online. LoanCare have sent copies of the two most recent Annual Escrow Account Disclosure Statements and Monthly Statements in their letter response.

      As it relates to the fixed interest rate, in accordance with the terms of your Note, the borrower has a fixed interest rate of 5.50% which means the principal and interest portion of the borrower payments will remain at $2,208.36, unless their original terms are changed by way of a modification or refinance.

      Mortgaging servicing guidelines require that LoanCare analyze the borrowers escrow account annually to ensure sufficient funds are collected for the payment of the borrowers property taxes and insurance premiums. As taxes and insurance can change from year to year, the escrow portion of the borrowers payment may also fluctuate from year to year and may result in an escrow account shortage or overage.

      Regarding the borrowers payment change, LoanCare completed an escrow analysis on November 15, 2023,reflecting an escrow shortage of $410.70 due to the increase in insurance. The second analysis was completed on February 22, 2024, reflecting the shortage remaining from the previous analysis of $308.01.

      According to the borrowers mortgage terms, payments are due on the first of each month, and there is a 15-day grace ******* If payments are not received by the end of the grace ******* a late fee of 4.0% of the past due payment is assessed. As of April 16, 2024, the loan was past due for April 1, 2024, and a late fee was assessed. As evidenced in the enclosed Account History, the late fee was waived on April 29, 2024.

      As of the date of this letter, the borrowers loan is due for May 1, 2024. There is a partial payment of $2,146.20 being held in suspense, and a balance of $213.41 is required to satisfy the payment due. As a courtesy, LoanCare have added a suppression to the account to ensure no late fees are assessed for the May 2024 payment to allow time to submit the balance required. LoanCare records confirm a payment for this amount is scheduled to be applied on May 31, 2024.

      I received paperwork that was mailed to me stating they were offering me an FHA partial claim and they would cover ******** Feb, March, and April and I would owe them $7,100 by the end of the loan or before we sell the property. I received this paperwork before February 16th, the date I made an extra payment towards ******** meaning my payment went towards January but they already paid ******** so before I signed any paperwork I called the company to ask if this was OK. I specifically asked if I should still sign the paperwork or have it revised seeing that I just made an extra payment. The rep told me it was totally fine and once everything was finalized my payment would just be pushed out one month and instead of owing in **** I would owe June 1st. Might I add they say their calls are recorded.Now the company is saying that I still owe for **** and that my January payment of $2,100 was a part of my partial claim and that it wasn't a monthly payment but it was money that went towards the partial payment calculations. This is incredibly, untrue. I received an offer packet that told me they would pay **** Feb, March, April and I would pay back $7,100 BEFORE I made the payment, so if they computed these numbers before I made my payment, how can this be true? It's a lie. I didn't agree to pay $2,100 AND $7,000 for my partial claim agreement, I made the FEB PAYMENT after the offer paperwork came out to me and told me what my offer would be. Not to mention I specifically called to make sure this wouldn't be a problem, which it now is. They told me they reversed my payment on March 22nd, and no one knows what happened to it, so they are making up an excuse to cover themselves. My payment should be due June 1st. This was told to me on a RECORDED line back in February. I would have never agreed to pay $2100 down and then $7100 at the end, no way. THATS NOT IN THE PAPERWORK EITHER. These people are scam artists. Trying to steal a huge amount of my money. Do not trust them.

She also stated she spoke to an agent that advised she could resume her payments on June 1, 2024. On May 10, 2024, LoanCare spoke with ************** and advised that her payment on February 16, 2024, was part of the calculation for the partial claim review and applied towards the delinquency of the loan.

      This is not the full story, but only part of the reason why I rightfully deserved MY 2/16 payment applied to my May mortgage payment.  Nevertheless,  I received my money and I got what I was promised by one of their own representatives and I will not allow this issue to cause another minute of stress and anxiety in my life. Getting my money back was absolute h*** and if I hadnt fought hard for it, for weeks, I would be out thousands. I must have called at least 15 times and talked to God knows how many people before I got this resolved. This was insane. I  hope I never run into something this stressful again, as it really does affect every single day of your life until its resolved. 
      I appreciate it being resolved. Im happy to end it. Thanks. 
      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

      Sincerely,

      I closed on the home that was serviced by Lakeview Mortage in March. On April 1st, they proceeded to charge me another month of mortage payment. I called them that day and they assured me it was an accident and that I would be reimbursed within 2 weeks. At the two week ***** I called them again and after hours of being hung up on and redirected, was told that I would need the new buyers to request a refund for me. I actually managed to make that happen just for them to be told that I needed to email a certain email address for my refund. I have since emailed that address multiple times and provided all needed documentation that clearly shows that Lakeview took a payment and is still witholding my money from me. I have recieved nothing but automated responses in return. This is my last step before legal action to have my money rightfuly returned.
