ARE YOU SUDDENLY BEING FORECLOSED UPON? IS YOUR MORTGAGE HITTING THE THREE YEAR MARK?

LENDERS ARE PUSHING HOMEOWNERS
OUT OF THEIR HOMES
AT EXACTLY THE THREE YEAR MARK
TO REAP THE BENEFITS OF "REO"
A LIE, BUT WELLS FARGO DOESN'T CARE
THEY ARE QUICKLY FORECLOSING
AGAINST SEC TRUST LOANS
AND THEY TAKE THE BENEFITS
AS IF THEY WERE REO'S

is acquired on behalf of the Trustee through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of
