Mortgage Transfer Notification Requirements

Hi Gary,
I can provide some general information about mortgage transfers. In California, lenders can sell or transfer your mortgage without your consent. However, they are required to notify you of the transfer.
- Did you receive any written notice regarding the transfer?
This information will help me give you more specific guidance.

Hi Gary,
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. In California, the law requires that you be notified in writing when your mortgage is transferred to another lender or servicer. Here are some general steps you can take:
- Check your mortgage statement for any information about the transfer.
- Contact Bank of America and FirstKey Mortgage to request written documentation about the transfer.
- File a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) if you do not receive the required notice.
Would you like assistance with contacting these entities or filing a complaint?

Hi Gary,
Requesting mortgage discharge paperwork typically means you are asking for documents that show your mortgage has been paid off and the lien on your property is released. This does not relieve you of your mortgage principal unless you have fully paid off your loan.
Would you like information on how to verify if your mortgage is paid off?

Hi Gary,
To verify if your mortgage is paid off, follow these steps:
- **Contact Your Lender**: Request a payoff statement that details the remaining balance on your mortgage.
- **Check Your Records**: Review any previous communications or statements for payoff information.
- **Title Search**: Conduct a title search to ensure there are no outstanding liens.
Would you like more detailed guidance on any of these steps?
