countrywide short sale: Got Denial? Countrywide sends out 19,000 short sale denial letters "in error" - 03/03/09 10:37 AM
Yup, they did.  19,000 denial letters in error.
I thought it was strange when one client got a denial letter a MONTH AFTER we closed escrow!  Of course I got worried they used some fine print and denied it after close, refused funds and refused to reconvey.  But then, another client got the letter dated the same date, and then another...  so what's up?
Countrywide admits over 19,000 denial letters were sent out in error. 
How does such a thing happen?  Is there a single "button" one pushes to deny over 19,000 customers the help they are desperate to receive.  Heck, … (8 comments)

countrywide short sale: Countrywide Problems - discrepencies abound b/w what they say & what they do - 11/09/08 03:34 PM

countrywide short sale: Anatomy of a recent Countrywide Short Sale (updated) - 07/10/08 12:51 PM
So, we're not there yet, but what a relief that a big lender like Countrywide has made it a mission to streamline the process.  In case you didn't see my post on June 29th, let me recap and let you know where we are in case you're following along:
June 14th:  Submitted authorization to communicate in anticipation of offer(s) on property.
June 17th:  Called. Confirmed authorization received and went thru "telephone intake" with CW rep.  They asked me questions about the sellers financials, situation, hardship and then questions about the buyer's offer.  We passed and we were sent on to the short sale … (16 comments)
