I've received a late payment notice from my bank, but I am on time with my mortgage payments. Can they legally foreclose on my home?

 

A:

Legal foreclosure on your home cannot take place unless you fail to pay your mortgage payments as promised and you therefore "default" on your loan. However, the mortgage company could initiate a wrongful bank foreclosure if it believes you have defaulted, even if you have paid your mortgage payments on time. Wrongful bank foreclosures can occur through accounting errors or other paperwork mishaps such as an address being entered into a database incorrectly. 

These errors have greatly multiplied during the current real estate crisis. When a mortgage lender's books incorrectly show a late payment, you will receive a late payment notice. If your mortgage accounting records are not straightened out quickly, you may soon receive a letter from the bank demanding full payment of your mortgage under the acceleration clause, thus beginning the wrongful bank foreclosure process.

In other words, you will need to straighten out the bank's faulty record-keeping in order to avoid the continued process of a wrongful bank foreclosure.
