State of emergency: mortgage servicers: disasters.

Abstract

Existing law generally regulates mortgages and mortgage servicers, as defined, including the transfer of servicing a borrower's debt to a subsequent mortgage servicer. Existing law provides that a covenant made by an owner or grantee of land to do or refrain from doing some act on the owner's or grantee's land, which doing or refraining is expressed to be for the benefit of the covenantee, is a covenant that runs with the land granted to the covenantor if specified requirements are met. The California Emergency Services Act establishes the effect of a proclamation of a state of emergency, as defined, or a local emergency, as defined. This bill would require a transferor mortgage servicer servicing a mortgage secured by property, as defined, within the geographic limits of a proclaimed state of emergency or local emergency to deliver to a transferee mortgage servicer any material written records between the borrower and the mortgage servicer relating to the borrower's election to use insurance proceeds to repair or replace property damaged by a disaster for which the state of emergency or local emergency was proclaimed, as specified. The bill would prohibit the transferee mortgage servicer from dishonoring a previous written agreement to repair property made prior to the transfer between the transferor mortgage servicer and the borrower and approved by the owner of the promissory note.
