Abstract

In 2005, petitioners obtained a $359,650 mortgage from PNC Mortgage for the purchase of a home. In 2013, petitioners became unable to make their mortgage payments and contacted PNC for hardship assistance. PNC failed to send a hardship assistance package to petitioners. Despite that failure, PNC later notified petitioners that their request for hardship assistance was denied “because PNC did not receive a completed hardship assistance package” from petitioners and recorded a notice of default. In November 2013, petitioners submitted a loan modification agreement to PNC; in December 2013, PNC confirmed that it had received a complete package. Despite that pending loan modification, PNC recorded a notice of trustee’s sale of the property in January 2014. Petitioners immediately called PNC and were told that their loan modification had been denied due to missing documents.
