Loan and Trust Investigations
FDN now has two certified mortgage loan and securitized mortgage loan trust investigators who utilize various databases to track the history of a mortgage loan including any alleged placement into a securitized mortgage loan trust (including private, non-SEC filed trusts) and particular information as to a particular trust. Loan and trust investigations are available to anyone. Reports from these investigations are factual in nature and do not contain any legal advice. Use of the matters from the reports and investigations is proper by licensed attorneys who practice in the area of foreclosure defense.
