Question: Realtor/Mortgage lender fraud? PLEASE HELP!!?

I had a very bad experience with the mortgage lender and realtor. I believe I got screwed on my house. I'm young, and they knew it. I want to post my story but its too long. Anyways, this has been eating me up for so long, and now i'm ready to take action. Does anybody know of any resources where I can look up illegal/legal lender/realtor practices in TEXAS. I don't need the code of ethics. I need solid law. I'm about to lose my house and this gave me enough courage to move forward. I've googled and looked at so many places and can't find anything. Please help. I have no money or time for legal consultation right now. I'm very depressed. I work 2 ft jobs, have a baby, and cant pay my bills anymore. Please help me!!!

Answer: There is a huge difference between fraud being committed by a Lender or Realtor and a Buyer who didn't have a clue as to what they were doing getting in way over his or her head.

The fact that you are young has nothing to do with anything. There are plenty of young people who research what they are doing before they do it so that they don't enter into a deal that isn't in their best interests.

The Texas AG's Office has a Mortgage Fraud Task Force that you can contact if it indeed was fraud.

Here is a link to the Texas Office of The Consumer Credit Commissioner that lists what is considered predatory lending practice in Texas, along with the Texas Code that addresses the issue:

I hope you work things out. Good Luck.
