Distressed homeowners lure Chase counselors to Riverview [Tampa Bay Area]

There’s a reason JPMorgan Chase chose Riverview for its second Homeownership Center in the Tampa Bay area.

It’s where a sizable portion of its troubled borrowers live.

The lender is trying to make it easier for its financial distressed customers to meet face-to-face with counselors in an attempt to staunch the flow of foreclosures.

“Our goal is to get the customer early, before they fall behind,” said Rocky Stubbs, a vice president at Chase.
