Los Angeles Bad Faith Mortgage Help
Sticking to the Terms of Your Loan
When you apply for a homeowner’s loan, you usually have a lot going on that is exciting and gives you hope for your future. You’re buying a home or an investment property—these things are good.
Some lenders, though, act unlawfully throughout or at a certain point in the loan process. We help clients fight this type of mortgage bad faith in Los Angeles or other parts of California.
What Is a Bad Faith Mortgage in Los Angeles?
Bad faith can occur at just about any stage of the home-buying process. Essentially, the lender does something that is misleading or dishonest in order to bring the loan to completion and commit you to terms that favor the lender or the lending institution:
- Initial valuation of the house or property
- Filling out a mortgage application with information the lender knows is false
- Attempting to get you a mortgage to which you are not entitled
- Attempting to get you a mortgage the lender knows you cannot repay
- Changing the terms at closing or just before closing
- Presenting you with previously undisclosed costs or feed
- Telling you that changes are not that important when you don’t understand them
If any of these have happened to you and you have suffered a loss because of this type of unlawful behavior, the attorneys at Milton & DeKruif can help you recover your losses and bring your home-buying process to a more favorable—and lawful—resolution.
