Ameriquest Mortgage Per Dec monthly statement they deducted $646.81 from our escrow We received a tax sale bill from the county that by May 10, they will sale our house if we dont pay them $778.21 RIPOFF Orange California
We finance with them about 2 year ago. At settlement they put in our escrow account our property tax for the full year. Every month we paid $102.82 and was put in our escrow for the end of the year to pay our tax. At the end of Dec.2003 when our tax was paid in full we ask them to refund us around $616.00 well after a year with letters & phone calls they did. If this county tax sale bill wasn't mail to us or was misplaced our house would be up for sale.
Now the good news we are refinancing our home the only way to get away from these Rip-Offs.

I have an escrow account with Ameriquest and they didn't send a check for my taxes until after I received a letter from the county tax collector. Ameriquest finally paid my taxes but the first installment payment was late. They did pay the penalty and now they are trying to collect that from me. They are nothing but Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

You mean to tell me that Ameriquest is the one that wants to sell your home since YOU asked for a refund on your escrow balance?? Well, had you not asked for that refund...the tax bill would have been paid in full and your "situation" would have been resolved. It's your fault that the taxes weren't paid. It's not the fault of a mortgage company. They simply set up an escrow that is an ESTIMATE of your taxes due. If your taxes go up the following year...you MAY OWE MORE MONEY on your taxes. Mortgage companies cannot control your taxes.
