Another Bankster Jumps Gun With Premature Lockout - Another Homeowner Left On Outside Looking In

In Oakdale, Minnesota, the Oakdale Patch reports:
  • An Oakdale homeowner whose home was is in the foreclosure/short sale process called police Wednesday, May 5, to report that someone had changed the locks on her home, according to an Oakdale police report.
  • The resident, whose home is in the 6300 block of 11th Street said she still had legal rights to the property until at least July 5. However, when she went to the house, there was a notice on the door from Mortgage Contracting Services that said the property was determined abandoned/vacant and so the locks were changed, the report says.
  • The complainant had last been to the home about two weeks ago, the report says. Police called a representative from the company, but because it was after-hours, limited information was available, according to the report.
