Man falls behind on payments, mortgage company has home trashed
WTSP ^ | 6/30/11 | Mike Deeson

Imagine coming back to your home after being away a few weeks and finding the locks changed and the home trashed. That's what happened to Chris Boudreau of Brooksville.

Boudreau showed us the home, which was stripped bare.

Walking through the living room, he tells us "I used to have a couch, a sofa, a couple of end tables, a TV, DVD player, tapes and cabinet... but they are now gone."

It happened after 21 Mortgage Corporation in Knoxville, which is Boudreau's lender, hired a local company to do the job.

Good 'Dead Beats' getting just what they deserve! Should have wait until they were home so they could have given them a good beaten while they were at it. /sarc/

There’s no way this is legal. The company is counting on the man being too poor to sue.

"...back to your home after being away a few weeks .."

Well traveled for a guy that can't make his mortgage payments.

Banks and mortgages companies are no long subject to the rule of law. They make their own up as they go along. You tell me any persons or company that can commit perjury, forgery and fraud on the court on the scale that the banks and mortgage companies have and someone or someones not be in jail or at least indicted?

Congress and the Democrat party come to mind. Even the Republicans give it a good go from time to time.

Check out the 'Mugshot Round Up' image. Guy looks like an Orc from LOTR.
As for Boudreau, I reckon he should have honored his agreement with the lender then none of this would have occurred.

"Although Boudreau had fallen behind a bit in his mortgage, there were no foreclosure proceedings in effect," Altman says. "That means the people who trashed bordures home and took his possessions should be arrested and prosecuted like common criminals."

I have noted your sarcasm tag.

There is a tendency for some to whip out the deadbeat card, but with our current government, those who play by the rules are getting the shaft anyway. I cannot think of such worse governance as I have seen in my forty-five years. We need a major overhaul.

Yeah the guy just doesn’t understand that being behind on your mortgage allows the lender to perpetrate any crime they choose against you without worry. Maybe they can snatch him up off the street and sell his organs for the money owed.

Everyone has horror stories about unscrupulous mortgage companies. But I never had any break into my house before foreclosure procedings ended.

Years ago I remortgaged my house, and the company holding the initial mortgage refused to give me my payoff amount unless I went into their office personally to get it. (1500 miles away). Nothing about it in the contract of course, the woman handling it just didn't want to give up the mortgage. I've no doubt they intended to do something else sleezy and try to steal my house from under me.

I had made it with a reputable bank but - wait for it - they sold it to a creepy outfit. Took a lot of finagling but I out finagled them. But no doubt I was lucky.

So you are admitting to being a ‘Dead Beat’ and screwing over the poor honest lender out of years of interest payments. I hope you are rightly ashamed of your actions. /sarc/

He can’t pay his mortgage and he goes on vacation?

What an idiot.

“Imagine coming back to your home after being away a few weeks...”

He was away from home for a few weeks, which means he was either working out of town, on vacation or in the local hoosegow.

If he were working, he could pay his mortgage and if he were in jail, the article would mention that fact.

Therefore, the deadbeat must have been on vacation.

Being away?

Do people just go off wandering away from home for weeks on end? Was the poor man in Jail? Was he fighting in Afghanistan? Having a sex change operation?

Inquiring minds need to know.

As for me, vacation sounds about right, but all theories are welcome on Free Republic.

Great minds think alike, but only one gets posted first.

LOL
