A 36-foot-long vehicle serving as the state Department of Financial Services (DFS) Mobile Command Center will bring mortgage-foreclosure specialists to Syracuse on Monday.
The specialists will be in the city to meet with homeowners who are in foreclosure or who are at risk of foreclosure. Their visit is part of a DFS foreclosure-prevention initiative launched in February. The Mobile Command Center has been travelling through New York state since then.
The foreclosure specialists will offer homeowners information about loan-modification programs they may be able to use. They will also provide guidance on filing complaints with DFS in potential predatory-lending cases.
