I, too, had an identical situation just happen in November 2012. After years of rebuilding and waiting patiently for my "forclosure proceedings started" to fall off from Chase (scheduled for August of 2013) my score finally skyrocketed (ironically enough in early November) to a point where I could apply for a mortgage again. I contacted a lender and started house hunting a couple of weeks ago.
Then last week I find out these lovely Ocwen folks have slapped this complete nonsense on my credit report 6 years after the home was sold. My score has tanked and a new mortgage is now out of the question. In addition to that, I'm now very concerned my existing credit lines I've worked so hard to build will be decreased. I need to buy a new car in the Spring. I guess that's out of the question now.
The thing I don't understand is, the amount they are reporting and how they can say it's currently 120 days past due. It's half of the amount of the original mortgage and I haven't made a payment late on anything since 2006! It makes no sense at all. I've never been contacted by this company. EVER. I've never been contacted regarding a deficiency amount (the home actually sold for more than was owed).
If you have any success in getting it removed, please share! I'm afraid to dispute it as foreclosed since Chase never actually reported as "Foreclosed". If they change the status my report will show a judgement and tank even further.
