Mortgage Conventional fixed mortgage

Complaint #1716993 submitted on 12/26/2015 relating to Vanderbilt Mortgage & Finance. Complaint relates to Mortgage Conventional fixed mortgage - Settlement process and costs .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Saturday 26th December 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

Vanderbilt has refused to provide me with all documents, forms, and contracts that may pertain to offers that they have made to settle our account. They proposed XXXX offers. XXXX was for deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, and the second was for a cash settlement to mature on XXXX/XXXX/2016. The have provided the jest of XXXX offers, but have yet to provide complete documentation that would be signed should we agree to either of the offers. I need to review the complete settlement agreement ( s ) including terms and conditions, legal disclaimers, waivers and omissions, clauses, releases, and all other verbiage contained therein. Without this information I can not make an informed decision and can not possibly know my full rights related to these settlement offers. I need to be able to review them in their entirety and have ample time to have them reviewed by legal counsel as well. I received correspondence from Vanderbilt 's portfolio manager, XXXX XXXX, indicating that he did not believe I needed this information. Due to the deadline for acceptance or rejection of this offer, it is imperative that I take the time to make this request even during the holidays. If Vanderbilt can not provide the complete contracts for both offers proposed, then no offer was truly made. I have many questions as to what these final agreements might look like and what restrictive verbiage they may or may not contain. For example, XXXX XXXX, debt collector for Vanderbilt, suggested that I would have to sign an agreement that if I were unable to acquire the funds needed for settlement, I would have to turn the keys over and walk away from the home. He also stated that Vanderbilt would include a clause stating that I would waive my right to legal recourse should I accept their offer to settle the account. This is why I must see any and all verbiage associated with both of the offers. Contrary to XXXX XXXX 's statement to his legal department, quote, " I am really not sure why he wrote us this asking for us to give him our offer again. XXXX gave him the XXXX options we were willing so I am really not sure why he is asking for us to provide that again???
XXXX, do we need to give it to him again in writing? '' end quote, I have never received anything other than a vague proposal with no further information that would allow me to make an informed decision. This has already happened twice before when they sent agreements to offer payment assistance and loan modification.

So I respectfully request this information in its entirely as well as an extension of 30 days for review by myself and counsel. I have attached the original email where I requested this from Vanderbilt.
