Calabasas, CA (PRWEB) June 17, 2011
Philip Kramer, lead lawyer for Kramer Kaslow, recently commented on the New York Times coverage of the reverse foreclosure trend. According to the New York Occasions write-up, a new trend could be starting in the foreclosure crisis: homeowners foreclosing on lenders. The New York Occasions reports, Owners of a house in Florida have engineered a reverse foreclosure against a bank. That makes two so far this year.

The post says that earlier this year, Patrick Rodgers, a goth and industrial music event promoter in Philadelphia became miffed since his mortgage lender, Wells Fargo, was creating him carry what he deemed excessive insurance on his residence. Making use of the Genuine Estate Settlement Procedures Act to his benefit, he filed suit and wound up with a sheriffs notice authorizing the sale of the contents of a Wells Fargo branch.

The New York Times reports on another couple who did battle with their lender and won, A couple in Naples, Fla., have foreclosed on a Bank of America branch following the bank managed to foreclose on their property even even though they by no means had a mortgage on it.

According to reports in The Naples News, Time and elsewhere, Warren Nyerges and his wife paid $ 165,000 in money to purchase the house from the bank, and never ever borrowed against it. But last February, in an apparent case of mistaken house identity, the bank started foreclosure proceedings against them.

The couple hired a lawyer and the bank action was ultimately abandoned, but the couple then went to court and got a judgment for about $ two,500 in attorneys fees.

When the bank didnt spend, their lawyer, Todd Allen, showed up at a regional bank branch final week with sheriffs deputies and a moving truck to start cleaning out the constructing. Not extended after, the bank paid them a lot more than $ 5,700, to cover the charges and further expenses.

Attorney Philip A. Kramer, senior companion at the Kramer& Kaslow law firm represents hundreds of consolidated litigation plaintiff clientele who are suing banks for wrongful foreclosure practices. Stories like these are excellent exciting, says Kramer, but its essential to maintain in mind that these minor skirmishes do nothing at all to prevent the huge-scale abuse of home owners by lenders. We can all have a excellent chuckle at this, but we cant drop sight of just how critical it is when strong banking institutions wrongfully try to take peoples properties.
