Shouldn’t the headline of the story read , N J Leads the Country in Illegal Foreclosures as the Country rebounds from the theft of those homes ???? from the Inception of millions of alleged Mortgage loans , the terms of the Mortgage contract were breeched by the purported ” Lender ” bringing NO CONSIDERATION to the table and involving the homeowner in a contract executed behind their back and without their permission . That contract was table funded by Investors who have no recourse to the property and the purported ” Lender ” was just a servicer of the income streams created by the illegal contract brokered behind your back , and without your permission !! It’s called ” FRAUD IN THE FACTUM ” and is subject to Rescission !!!!
