Conventional fixed mortgage Loan modification,collection,foreclosure Georgia

I owned a condo in - and had decided to rent it for two years. In - - my tenants stopped paying rent and I was not able to pay mortgage since sine was the income I relied upon. At this time, I also had the property listed for sale and was receiving many offers and knew a deal would close soon. As soon as I knew I would have a problem paying mortgage I called Wells Fargo to see if there was anything they could do to assist. I had been a loyal customer for 8 years and had never missed a payment once. I was told that since the property was listed I did not qualify for any of their assistance programs. I received calls day and night from Wells Fargo representatives trying to collect the debt and each time I spoke with the representative I explained the situation and asked if there was anything I could do. Each time I was told the only resolution was to pay the debt in full or they would report the delinquencies to the credit bureaus. I was unable to pay mortgage for 4 months and as a result my credit


they would assist. While the HOPE agent was on the line, we were told that nothing could be done to help me since the property was listed. In - - I received an email from Wells Fargo stating that I had been approved for a streamlined modification. I was surprised because the property was still listed, and for moths I was rejected from receiving any assistance and had n't applied for this modification. When I called to speak with a representative I was told that I qualified for the program because I had n't missed payments in the past. I asked why I was n't advised of this program back in - - when I first reached out for help and was not given an answer. Had I been advised that I qualified for an assistance program, I would have been able to work with the bank while the sale was pending. Instead I was ill-advised and as a result my credit suffered. Now that my property has sold and I want to purchase a new home, I can not do so because my score is very low. I will have to pay very high interest rates if I can even secure a new loan. I worked very hard for years to maintain an above average score and because I was rejected from a benefit I should have received I am now suffering this financial injustice. When I initially called Wells Fargo in - - I should have been advised what my options were but instead I was rejected and my credit suffered. Having been a loyal customer for 8 years I am shocked that the bank has neglected to service me properly and put me in such financial jeopardy.
