I first talked to Yvonne McBride-Acosta of Sunrise in October. Her situation was bad.
Since then, it has gotten worse.
Back then, I wrote about her here-it-is, there-it-goes loan modification. She had qualified for one in July 2009, but her lender, Bank of America, cancelled it a few months later.
There was a tremendous response, not just from other borrowers in the same position. Sunrise Mayor Roger Wishner called. Florida’s Attorney General’s office got involved. Bank of America responded.
In the sea of South Florida troubled borrowers, where more than 100,000 Floridians have at least started a loan modification, Acosta’s story stands out.
