I am not sure how the Taylor’s prevailed other than they got the house back without the bank getting sanctioned good. And they got it for less. Wells Fargo had to have known Ameriquest was involved and intentionally put these people through it damaging them and the community. They should have gotten the house back and free and clear.
Pelucheven,
Since the ‘Proof of Claim” filed with the court in my case is a copy produced by the Title company, mine is more like you wrote a check 5 years ago but never signed it, instead someone scanned it, now that person has printed a copy of what they scanned and sent it, complete with a stamp saying it is was printed from the archives, and now that has been submitted, still without any signatures on it.
I really see no point in acquiring a copy from the title company. It is meaningless.
I’m sure the court would not want me to present the parallel check, claiming to have paid the debt in full.
Hate to take up the room here – but below is a list of some that may be the “investor” (i.e. Current Creditor) in your loan/property. There are, most likely, more.

Legal twist forces foreclosure redos
Creates second chance for former owners
http://www.boston.com/business/articles/2010/11/12/legal_twist_forces_foreclosure_redos/
Zepheniah Taylor lost his Dorchester three-decker to foreclosure two times in 17 months. Now the 59-year-old grandfather has returned home to stay. The scenario, once implausible, is becoming more common in the crazed and fast-changing world of foreclosure
Foreclosures spread outside Boston
Hundreds — and possibly thousands — of Massachusetts homeowners are facing back-to-back foreclosures as lenders realize there were problems with property titles the first time around. Those lenders, often unable to obtain title insurance, are opting to start from scratch with what is being called a “re-foreclosure.’’
The prospect of going through a foreclosure all over again may seem nightmarish for homeowners, but in a growing number of cases the do-overs are creating opportunities for them to repossess their homes.
Such was the case with Taylor, who decided to fight the second foreclosure. The tactic paid off: He won the right to repurchase the home at current market value.
“I’m starting over fresh,’’ said the father of eight and grandfather of nine. “It feels good. It is a new chance.’’
Not all tenants enjoy such an outcome, however, and those who receive notice of a re-foreclosure often are confused.
“They are weirded out,’’ said Zoe Cronin, a staff attorney with Greater Boston Legal Services, which provides legal representation to low-income people. Cronin said she knows of about a dozen recent re-foreclosures. “I’ve met former owners [who are] saying, ‘What is this? I got a letter saying I own my house again,’ ’’ she said.
The recent burst in re-foreclosures can be traced to a 2009 Massachusetts Land Court ruling that called into question the validity of a home’s ownership in cases where foreclosure paperwork was incomplete or inaccurate.
The finding is now being reviewed by the state Supreme Judicial Court. Its decision could determine whether tens of thousands of homes with foreclosures in their backgrounds have valid titles.
At issue is who technically owns a property on the day it is seized by a lender. It’s often difficult to know for sure because during the housing boom millions of mortgages were bundled into bonds and sold to investors. That process, repeated over and over, created a twisted paper trail. As the number of foreclosures increased dramatically across the nation, the morass worsened.
Many lenders believed they could still proceed with a foreclosure and later sort out the legal mess by proving they held the mortgage. That premise was rejected by the Land Court.
While it is unclear how many property takings have been done over, Elizabeth J. Barton, chairwoman of the Massachusetts Bar Association’s Foreclosure Legislation Task Force, estimated the number could total in the thousands, based on action taken by lenders that was prompted by last year’s Land Court decision.
She said lenders are primarily targeting properties for which they have been denied title insurance because the original foreclosure did not comply with the court’s ruling.
Page 2 of 3 —
“Title insurance companies hesitate to extend protection to a loan that violates the ruling,’’ said Barton, title counsel at Connecticut Attorneys Title Insurance Co., which has offices throughout New England. “A lot of lenders have had to re-forecloseThe problem of cloudy title histories also is providing a boost to an increasing number of homeowners who are going to court to force lenders to prove they have a legal right to seize their properties.
Typically, homeowners argue against foreclosures by citing what they believe to be lenders’ shoddy paperwork and fraudulent documents. Concerns about such practices recently prompted 50 US attorneys general to spearhead an investigation into foreclosure practices, while some major lenders — including the nation’s largest, Bank of America Corp. — temporarily halted foreclosures to scrutinize their own practices.
Housing advocates argue that even if homeowners have not paid their mortgages — which is almost always the case by the time a foreclosure is underway — lenders must still be able to prove they have a right to a property before taking it.
The growing skepticism about foreclosure practices is helping more homeowners win their legal challenges, housing attorneys say. And lenders, hesitant to bring more questionable business practices to light, are more frequently retreating from court battles over foreclosed homes, making settlements with homeowners a more attractive option.
“Banks are less and less anxious to go forward in front of a jury,’’ said Maureen McDonagh, a director at the WilmerHale Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School, a Jamaica Plain-based organization that provides legal help to low-income people. “People don’t trust the industry.’’
Taylor’s foreclosure story began like millions of others nationwide. He and his daughter, Suzette, refinanced their mortgage in 2004 with a subprime loan, the kind of toxic debt that pushed the US economy into a tailspin in 2008. They borrowed $325,000 from Ameriquest Mortgage Co., at a two-year fixed rate of 6.99 percent. Taylor lived on the first floor with four of his children and two grandchildren; Suzette lived on the second floor, with her three children.
When the mortgage reset in 2006, monthly payments rose to more than $3,000, from $2,160. That was too much for Taylor, who worked as a handyman at a local nonprofit and Suzette, a restaurant cashier. They tried to renegotiate the loan and even attempted to sell the property as a way out. Neither tactic worked, and in March 2008 the foreclosure went through.
Or so they thought. The tangled foreclosure process came to work in the Taylors’ favor.
Public records at the Registry of Deeds show that Wells Fargo, not Ameriquest, actually foreclosed on the home. That’s because the mortgage had been bundled into an asset-backed security and sold by Ameriquest, which did not file paperwork indicating the transfer to Wells Fargo until two months after the foreclosure..
Wells Fargo said it could not comment on the Taylors’ situation because it only served as the trustee to the loan. The bank referred questions about the dual foreclosures to the company that serviced the loan, HomEq Servicing, which was sold earlier this year, leaving no one to respond to questions about particulars of the case.

The bank referred questions about the dual foreclosures to the company that serviced the loan, HomEq Servicing, which was sold earlier this year, leaving no one to respond to questions about particulars of the case.
In June 2009 — more than a year after the foreclosure — the Taylors received a letter from Wells Fargo saying they were being foreclosed upon again. Just as before, their attempts to work out a deal with the lender went nowhere.
The Taylors decided it was finally time to go. Zepheniah moved to an apartment with three of his sons; his adult daughters found separate apartments with their young children.
But the story did not end there.
Soon after the family left the three-decker, community activists from City Life/Vida Urbana knocked on the door. It was part of a canvassing effort by the Jamaica Plain housing group to urge residents to remain in foreclosed homes and fight eviction.
They found a tenant upstairs and left a message for the Taylors — come home now.
Zepheniah Taylor heeded their call and returned several months after leaving. He challenged the eviction in Boston Housing Court with the help of attorneys from Greater Boston Legal Services, claiming Wells Fargo made additional errors in the second foreclosure and still could not prove it had clear title to the home.
Judge Jeffrey M. Winik postponed the Taylors’ eviction to allow the case to go to Land Court. But Wells Fargo instead sold the house to a nonprofit lender, Boston Community Capital, for $188,000. The nonprofit resold it to Taylor and another adult daughter, Tisa, for $233,900 — about $91,000 less than the 2004 mortgage.
Taylor lives on the first floor with three sons — ages 9, 19, and 22. He rents out the second floor and is renovating the third.
Housing advocates say the Taylors prevailed mostly because they were tenacious.
“The problem is that so many of the homeowners already moved out and didn’t know the foreclosures were unlawful,’’ said Nadine Cohen, managing attorney for the consumer rights unit at Greater Boston Legal Services. “Those are the people who have really been harmed in all of this.’’

Some of us who have lost our home were lied at the time the loan was originated, were lied to by the servicers, things were being done with our obligation that were illegal and fraudulent, fees and commissions were paid that were not disclosed to us on our loan documents as a result of the origination and securitization process, the servicers and their owners the banksters lied to us for almos two years in the process of loan modification and after I went to EDGAR and searched their Pooling and Servicing Agreement id I find out the truth. The PSA only allowed a 3% limit on the modification of certain loans. That means that the servicer charged the Government for HAMP and never was their intention and ability to modify the loan end result foreclosure.
I thought that countries like Venezuela, Iran, Greece, Mexico and others were just bastions of illegality, however, we have made of our system of laws a total disaster.
we can now stand in court and say your honor, I have a copy a a check I sent the Servicer which says we paid them in full, I have an affidavit signed by my wife attesting for the veracity of this copy as true and definite evidence of the payment. And in furtherance I have the affidavit notarized by my under aged son with a notary stamp he got from some Chinese website and by the way your honor we also have an affidavit that the real check was really eaten by my dog some time ago.
You see your honor, what is good for the goose is also good for the gander, if the bank is allowed to foreclose on me and my family with bogus documents, accounting, notaries and witnesses and they defense is that all that is just technical, then we demand this court admits my made up evidence and that if there are any issues that may be considered under the law as fraud and misrepresentation, they should be also accepted as pure procedural technicalities, since I was late for my court appearance today and we came up with all of this in a hurry. If you dismiss the case without prejudice as you are doing with all the banks with all their fake documents, then I should be given the same latitude. After all aren’t we all created equal under our Constitution? or is it that these patrician institutions have more rights and privileges than the commoners?

This was not a surprise by any means and if the AG’s do not thoroughly investigate what has happened to the taxpayers’ money (the people’s money) that the government has used taxpayer money as an additional tool to funnel money (bailout) to the banks . Money that will not be repaid to the taxpayer like they did with the TARP. Everyone is just now beginning to see how it works. Short sales were the name of the game and we should, as taxpayers filling the bill, be able to see the loan ledgers for each final sale and what amount of taxpayer money was paid to the banks so they could say they were helping the homeowner. How can there by any deficiences if the government is paying the lender for that part of the short sale whereby the lender allows a homeowner to sell short. Was it really short or what? Can anyone come up with those ledgers. There have been thousands of short sales and it would be interesting to know if the government particpated with the lender.
