If We Don’t Act

The Cullors Family Will Be Evicted

From their Rosedale Park Home by Bank of America & Fannie Mae

 

Taxpayers bailed out the bank and the Feds took over Fannie Mae in 2008.

 

They were “too big to fail,” and the Cullors are “too small to count…”

Unless We Act!

 

You Can Help Stop this Eviction 3 Ways:

 

1) Join us at the Cullors’ home this Saturday, November 10, at 10:00 a.m. for a rally and march to the nearby Bank of America branch at 17540 Grand River Ave.  The Cullors' home is at 14503 Artesian in Detroit (at Lyndon and west of the Southfield Expressway).

 

2) Join us in the courtroom of Judge Patricia Jefferson on Tuesday, November 13 at 9:00 a.m. at 36^th District Court, 421 Madison St. in downtown Detroit near Greektown. We can show the Judge the community wants the Cullors in their home.

 

3) Call the numbers at the bottom of this message and tell Bank of America to buy back the mortgage and modify the loan, and tell Fannie Mae to either force the bank to do so, or sell the home to a non-profit buyer at its current value so the Cullors can arrange to stay in their home.

Jerry Cullors is a retired bakery truck driver and Teamster who had to take steep wage and pension cuts to keep Wonder Bread solvent. That made it hard to pay the mortgage serviced by Countrywide, the predatory lender now owned by Bank of America.

Bank of America led the Cullors to believe they would qualify for a trial modification before denying them relief and suddenly bringing eviction proceedings on behalf of Fannie Mae. The Cullors had expected to get help from their former lawyer and mortgage counselors, but found out at the last minute they were on the verge of eviction.

Jerry and his wife live with their daughter and her grandmother— who is 88 years old and suffers from Alzheimers—in the home they have owned for 23 years.

Bank of America has plead guilty to foreclosure abuse and is obligated to buy back  mishandled mortgages from Fannie Mae and reduce principal for “underwater” homeowners. The Cullors need this help.

Rosedale Park doesn’t need another empty home!

Call Bank of America and tell them to do as they are obligated by Fannie Mae and this years’ state attorneys generals settlement: buy the mortgage back from Fannie Mae and modify the loan so the Cullors can stay in their home. Their loan number is 116546465.

Call Fannie Mae and tell them to force Bank of America to buy back the mortgage and modify the loan, or sell the house at its appraised value to a non-profit buyer so that the Cullors can arrange to stay in their home. Detroit doesn’t need another empty house blighting the neighborhood!
