We're seniors who purchased a flat in Gulfport, MS residence for the upcoming retirement. Sadly, it had been mainly ruined by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Your insurance did not address flooding, which accounted for many of the harm. We employed our life-savings—$50,000—plus required out a $30,000 SBA loan to correct the residence to master situation. We held up the funds although it was unliveable, then although it was outlined available beginning in 2007. But home prices choose to go along about the Gulf Coast, and we were inverted within the mortgage. At that time, we'd previously retired elsewhere.
In November our agent got a brief-purchase present that will have settled all-but $1,100 of Wells Fargois first-mortgage, plus $3,000 towards the SBA. We'd not get something.
SBA decided immediately. ASC informed us to prevent producing the funds while they regarded the present. Throughout that period they dropped the paperwork also it needed to be resubmitted from damage. All of the period, our calls to ASC were never delivered. If we got through, every time it had been another repetition who had been unfamiliar with our consideration.
Finally, after four weeks of slowing, ASC rejected the short-sale simply because they stated the present of $90,000 was also low. They'd also racked up $8,000 in costs throughout the weeks they informed us to not create the funds. A couple weeks later, we discovered from our agent that on April 19 ASC foreclosed about the residence and place it-up for market.
Actually, the customer was Wells Fargo—ASC's parent organization. They bought it for $70,000.
In most, we dropped our stunning residence, a $25,000 deposit, $50,000 in savings and 2 yrs of creating $1,000-a-month funds. Not just that, but we'd to state bankruptcy to avoid the SBA from garnishing our Social Security inspections. After being offended with a storm, ASC and Wells Fargo have completely ruined us economically.
