I would like help from the CFPB to have Suntrust Mortgage refund the fees paid to process a refinance of my current mortgage. My current mortgage lender is SunTrust and this loan is recorded in our family trust. While shopping for a refinance, on - separate recorded phone calls the Suntrust loan officer assured me if I refinanced with SunTrust the new loan could be recorded in the existing family trust. After submitting my documents ( including the family trust ) and getting pre- approval, I was charged a $540.00 appraisal fee and a $14.00 credit report fee. After these fees were paid I was notified that Suntrust would not record the refinance into the family trust as previously promised. I was given two options : 1. Record the new loan in my name, re-record it in my County to the Family Trust and pay a lawyer to amend the trust. 2. Change the family trust to meet their requirements but they claimed they could not disclose to me what those requirements are. On -/-/2016 I requested a refund of the fees already paid because I believe Suntrust acted in bad faith. They were aware from the beginning that keeping the new loan in the family trust was an essential factor in my decision to select Suntrust for the refinance. My current Suntrust Mortgage is recorded in the same family trust so there was no reason to suspect they would not/could not record the new loan to the trust.
