Man bites dog? Homeowners foreclose on Bank of America!
There is an old boss of mine that has told me before never to sweat anything because everything comes around full circle. Well the wagons surley were circled on Bank of America in the following story. Thank you Susan Neel for making my day.
In what their attorney calls "sweet justice", a Florida couple turned the tables on Bank of America. The bank initiated foreclosure proceedings on them, even though they had paid cash for the home and had no loan!
The court ruled that the bank had no right to file foreclosure and ordered it to pay the legal fees and costs of the homeowners. After 5 months of collection efforts and unreturned calls, there was no attempt by Bank of America to pay the judgment, so the attorney for the homeowners got an order to seize the bank's assets.
They showed up with sheriff's deputies and moving vans, fully prepared to take desks, furniture, computers, cash in drawers, or whatever they could to satisfy the debt. The bank decided to pay up.
Sweet justice indeed!
