Attorney generals in all
50 states are planning a
joint investigation into
potentially faulty
foreclosures at the largest banks and mortgage firms.
Texas Attorney General
Greg Abbott asked 30 lenders including Wells Fargo- the
state's largest
mortgage company,
Bank of America-
the second largest, and
J.P. Morgan Chase - the
third largest, to put a
hold on foreclosures
until their processes and
documents can be examined
and deemed compliant with
states' legal requirements.
George Roddy, president of Foreclosures Listing Service,
told the firm's subscribers
he does not believe any
government attempt to
implement a foreclosure
moratorium in Texas will
affect the foreclosure rate.
