About Countrywide Financial


Countrywide Financial is one of the best companies we work with. We have a great relationship with them. They are willing to work with the home owner to get their situation resolved. They work in a timely manner if a sale date has been set to get the file reviewed and assigned to a negotiator. They do have a process they go through to help home owners with assistance. Each file has to be pre-qualified and then goes through a review and assignment process. We know the process and prepare a detailed plan of action tailored to meet your needs and to help you with your foreclosure.

You can see by the plans we have brokered below for our clients. We can get you set up with a Loan Modification or a Repayment Plan to stop the foreclosure.

From their website:
"Countrywide is a diversified financial services company with mortgage banking at its core. As Americas leading home loan lender, Countrywide was built on the philosophy that those desiring the American dream deserve the opportunity to own a home. Since 1969, Countrywide has worked diligently to break down the barriers to homeownership and help millions of American families and individuals become homeowners."

If they were any type of company do you not think they would want to help you instead of making matters worse for you. My monthly payment when we tried to go with loan modification went up by $600.00 I wanted help not to put us into more financial strain.

This mortgage company has existing lawsuits from several states in our union. I myself except for the sale of my home without proper notification as is demanded by the State of California foreclosure Laws am extremely disappointed with how my home was TAKEN from me with giving me the opportunity to save it.

starno starno starno starno star by Anonymous From Denver, CO on July 01, 2008

If you get behind with payments- good luck. They string you along with promises for months only to pull out the plug and tell you you are out of options and your sale date is a week away.

Country Wide will say that they are willing to help with work out agreements but they never follow through.Country Wide will only make things worse by not accepting your money when the account falls behind.

I've had 2 different mortgages with Countrywide I was always on time before my mortgage started to adjust I tried to refinance at that time my credit was good they would not help me I really tried to work with them

starstarno starno starno star by Anonymous From Reno, NV on June 26, 2008

Before we were in a financial bind we tried to refinance, but because their records had my income on the initial morgage at $250K from the bank who sold them the loan, when we gave them our 2007 income at $650K and were willing to give them audited company financials and our tax returns the turned the loan down as the increase in income didn't fit the underwriters criteria?

I called to try to get help from them and be proactive to stop my foreclosure from happening but they told me that I had not missed any payments so there was nothing they could do for me. I told them that I was barely hanging on and that I was worried that I would not have the money to pay them soon and they just did not care. No wonder their stock is tanking, this is a poorly run business with a terrible track record for customer service. This is what happens when a company gets too big, nobody cares. I am sure that they are completely apathetic to this entire situation at this point and realize that they gave out too many bad loans and convinced people like con men that they could afford a home that they clearly could not. Way to go Countrywide, you suck!

starno starno starno starno star by Anonymous From Greenville, PA on June 25, 2008

All the office don't communicate with one another. and how can someone deny a package when they haven't received it yet.And when their one office approved it.I hear that Countrywide is on hard times and is being bought out by Bank of America

I want to be rid of the 2nd job (or keep it for a little while and make enough money to have a bit of a cash saved) and am looking for a deed-in-lieu at this point. Hopefully AFS can help.

wrote a hardship letter, gave 2 months to not pay but at the end of the two months wanted all back payment.How is that possible when you can't make it to do certain circumstances. Originally all I wanted to do was take the 2 months of I was behind on and add them to the life of the loan so I could start scratch.If they really wanted to work with you, they would do that. Wasn't happening. Hopefully AFS can help

I have had nothing but the run around dealing with Countrywide try to set up a repayment plan. When I started this process I was 3 months behind on my mortgage. Now today 8 months later nothing is resolved and they still do not know what department I should talk to to help me!!!

It was very tough working with Countrywide. I couldn't get a straight answer from anyone when I tried to do a loan modification. I even tried to do some payment plan but kept getting the run around. I had to repeat the same story to 6 different people to still get nowhere.

they would not work with me at all to do a loan modification

Huge Escrow problems...they double paid my taxes then increased my payment from 950 to 1800..it was impossible to get a straight answer out of anyone. One person would tell me how they can help and another would say they can't. Getting through to the on the phone is impossible!

We had a mortgage with Countrywide for several years beginning in 1996; had numerous problems with payment and escrow issues at that time. We should have declined the loan when the broker came up with this company on our most recent refinance, but it was the "midnight hour" when we were told who the lender would be. BIG mistake.

They have an excellent work out program and really seem to care about the consumer. I have nothing but good to say about COuntrywide. I would chose them everytime.

They are not in the "HOPE" Dept. They just take your HOPE away. Loss mitigation...'we want to help'...it's all bunk!

They were hard to get to the right person for the forebearance, and no communication with me, except to find out when I could pay. The person I spoke with concerning a work-out plan, was not willing to budge or did not have the resources available to help either with int only, putting payments on end of loan, etc...

They are better than some, worse than others. They have been fairly good to me and tried to help somewhat. However, they never got back in touch with me when I requested a special forbearance plan and this caused me to go from 2 months behind to 4 months behind on my mortgage. Now that I'm having problems with the repayment plan being too much to pay monthly, they want to charge me a higher payment of $1062 for 15 months for late charges, fees, etc., in order to catch up a $1700 arrearage for April and May. I think this is highway robbery and there must be some way to get help on this small amount of money. It's a lot of money to me, but very little when compared with most people's mortages these days. With a husband in dialysis and multiple health issues, and limited income, we have limited resources and make "too much money" to qualify for most state or federal programs. They wouldn't accept a partial payment of over half of the amount due for May 15, 2008. It's ridiculous when mortgage companies refuse to take partial payments. Something is better than nothing, and most places will take partial payments. They should not be allowed to refuse partial payments. Thanks.

Why would a company send money back instead of applying it towards your account? Something is better than nothing!

No bad report-in fact always had someone to offer alternatives in tough situtations & find funds to take care of needs that I didn't know existed... so they're o.k. with me!

No issues with the company. My husband lost his job in September and we are paying our mortgage out of our reserve fund at this time. We are going to be relocating and cannot keep the house.
