Edda Lopez talks with Channel 12 about her issues with Bank of America Edda Lopez vs. Bank of America

Edda Lopez is in the fight of her life with Bank of America and she needs your help.

Last year, Edda entered into an agreement with her mortgage company at the time, Wilshire. She qualified for a federal program, the Home Affordable Modification Program, and locked in her monthly payment at $2100/mo. Or, at least she thought.

Unfortunately, as soon as Bank of America took over the servicing of her mortgage, they reneged on this agreement, and increased her payments to $3100/mo. When Edda called Bank of America to find out why her payments had increased, she was told that her home was already in foreclosure and set to auction on June 28.

It is difficult to interpret Bank of America’s decision as being anything other than willfully cruel. Ms. Lopez is a disabled widow who nonetheless complied with her agreed-upon mortgage amount, and is now facing homelessness after living in her home since 1996.
