NONE of the people who posted here and most likely will lose their homes and can't find a competent attorney had their accounting. STOP whining and complaining, START demanding the accounting. Sample Qualified Written Request Under RESPA (name) (address) (date) VIA CERTIFIED MAIL (or any mail with delivery confirmation, I like priority mail) (lender name) (address) Attn: Mortgage Loan Accounting Department Re: Loan # (number) (borrower name and property address) To Whom It May Concern: (Loan servicer name) is the servicer of our mortgage loan at the above address. We dispute the amount that is owed according to the Monthly Billing Statement and request that you send us information about the fees, costs and escrow accounting on our loan.
