Minnesota AG: 'CitiMortgage Won't Give Us Straight Answer!' As Accounting Screw-Up Over 1 Loan Payment Leaves Homeowner Facing Imminent F'closure Sale

In St. Louis Park, Minnesota, the Star Tribune reports:

• Nancy Gosselin cannot understand why CitiMortgage is about to foreclose on her St. Louis Park house. Neither can her local banker or the Minnesota attorney general.



• At the heart of the dispute is a single monthly payment of $584 that CitiMorgage says she failed to make more than two years ago, according to the attorney general's office. Gosselin says she made all her payments. A loan officer at Bremer Bank agrees. The attorney general's office, which says it can't get a straight answer from CitiMortgage, has urged the mortgage giant to stop the foreclosure and work out a deal.



• But the fallout from the alleged missed payment has been a series of cascading late fees and penalties and refused payments that has culminated in CitiMortgage's threat to auction Gosselin's home at a sheriff's sale Dec. 2.
