Complaint #1554488 submitted on 09/08/2015 relating to VHDA. Complaint relates to Mortgage FHA mortgage - Loan servicing, payments, escrow account .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 14th October 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

My wife has her house financed through the Virginia Housing Development Authority. In the last year we have had to change our home insurance policy on that house. VHDA has continually made mistakes with correctly paying out the policy to the provider XXXX XXXX insurance Company with XXXX as the agent ) via the escrow account. It was so bad that at one point because VHDA paid out to XXXX wrong insurance providers, who were not XXXX, XXXX and XXXX informed us that they were going to drop us due to non-payment. We thought we had that whole issue taken care of in the XXXX timeframe of this year. However about XXXX months ago we got notified by VHDA that the escrow account was shorted by over {$1200.00} and therefore the mortgage payment on the property was increasing by over $ 200/month to cover the shortage. The reason for this shortage was because VHDA had paid out, twice for about {$1200.00}, insurance companies who were not our providers. Therefore After spending over XXXX hours on the phone with XXXX trying to understand what the issue was and who caused it, my wife and I thought we had this issue taken care of. VHDA even sent us an annotated print out showing where they had sent out XXXX incorrect payments, received return payments from those companies and finally paid out, correctly, to XXXX XXXX. Therefore, my wife and I thought everything was taken care of both with XXXX, to ensure we had insurance on the house, and VHDA, such that there was no longer a shortage in the escrow account. However, when we went to make the monthly mortgage payment this month, the payment amount reflected an amount that VHDA told us we would have to pay because the escrow was short funds. What I am filling a complaint about is this issue. Why do I have a document from VHDA showing that my escrow account is in good standing and any issues with the lack funds in the account are as aa result of their mistakes and not ours as a homeowner, and somehow I 'm still responsible for missing funds that should n't be missing from my account in the first place. This issue has been ongoing for almost a year and we would like it resolved.

ThanksXXXX and XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX )
