BAYVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC, ) J~~T~NO. ~-10-~106 ~~· ) Plaintiff, ) ) JUDGMENT OF v. ) FORECLOSURE AND SALE ) ORDER JAMES P. AUSTIN ) ) Defendants, ) )
I. Background
On or about December 15, 2005, Defendant, James P. Austin, executed a
promissory note in the principal amount of $1.1 million, along with a mortgage on his
property at 37 Pepperell Road, Kittery, Maine with Middlebury Equity Partners, LLC
(MEP). The note and mortgage are dated November 17, 2005. A notary acknowledged
the signing of the mortgage on December 9, 2005. Although Defendant originally
believed that the loan was also secured to two additional parcels purchased in his wife's
naine at the same time, the language attached to the mortgage describing the property
secured the loan to only the 37 Pepperell Road property.
On November 28, 2005, prior to the closing, MEP assigned the mortgage to
Plaintiff Plaintiff recorded the assignment of the mortgage on March 20, 2006, after the
mortgage had been executed and recorded. MEP endorsed the Note in blank; thereby
making it payable to the holder, dated November 17, 2005, the same date as listed on the
executed version of the note.
Defendant's loan went into default in July 2008, due to late payments in violation
of the terms of the mortgage agreement. Defendant contacted Plaintiff and requested a
1 loan modification. In the Loan Adjustment Agreement, signed and executed by
Defendant on October 29, 2008, Defendant agreed that he had "no defenses claims or
offsets" with respect to the amount due on the loan.
Defendant's loan again went into default in May 2010. Plaintiff mailed Defendant
two notifications of default including a list ofillJD counselors. Plaintiff alleges
Defendant owed Plaintiff $1,335,481.31 as ofNovember 7, 2012, plus attorney fees and
costs. Plaintiff brought this action on September 7, 2010 seeking a judgment of
foreclosure and sale.
II. Discussion
In order to succeed in a mortgage foreclosure action, the plaintiff must be able to
show, at least,
• "the existence of the mortgage, including the book and page number of the
mortgage, and an adequate description of the mortgaged premises, including
the street address, if any,
• properly present proof of ownership of the mortgage note and the mortgage,
including all assignments and endorsements of the note and the mortgage,
• a breach of condition in the mortgage note, including any reasonable attorney
fees and court costs
• the order of priority and any amounts that may be due to other parties in
interest, including any public utility easements,
• evidence of properly served notice of default and mortgagor's right to cure in
compliance with statutory requirements,
2 • after January 1, 2010, proof of completed mediation (or waiver or default of
mediation), when required, pursuant to the statewide foreclosure mediation
program rules, and
• if the homeowner has not appeared in the proceeding, a statement, with a
supporting affidavit, of whether or not the defendant is in military service in
accordance with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act."
Chase Home Finance LLC v Higgins, 2009 :ME 136, ,-r11, 985 A.2d 508, (citations
omitted). A party seeking to foreclose must strictly comply with all statutory steps.
Camden Nat'l Bank v. Peterson, 2008 :ME 85, ,-r21, 948 A.2d 1251. Plaintiff has shown
that a mortgage exists, that it is the owner of both the note and the mortgage, that there
was a breach of condition of the mortgage, that notice was served, and that neither
mediation nor the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act apply to Defendant. Therefore,
Plaintiff's Motion for Judgment will be granted.
The mortgage and the note in question exist and are not disputed by Defendant.
Furthermore, Defendant does not dispute executing the Loan Adjustment Agreement on
October 29, 2008, which reasserted the loan amount and his obligation to make monthly
loan payments.
Defendant has defaulted on the terms of the mortgage agreement and subsequent
Loan Adjustment Agreement. Defendant does not dispute that he failed to make the loan
payments, which led to a default in June 2008, and again in May 2010.
The property is not Defendant's primary residence, therefore Defendant is not
entitled to mediation on the matter. 14 M.R.S. §6321-A (2012). Nonetheless, Defendant
did not attend the scheduled informational session regarding mediation.
3 Plaintiff is not currently a member of the military, therefore not entitled to relief
under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act.
Plaintiff has shown evidence of ownership of the mortgage and note. See 14
M.R.S. § 6321(2012). Plaintiff presented evidence that the note was properly endorsed in
blank and that Plaintiff is the current holder of the note. Plaintiff has offered the mortgage
and an assignment recorded on March 20, 2006 as evidence of ownership of the
mortgage. Plaintiff has complied with the statutory requirements.
The Court concludes that the entire loan amount was agreed upon at the closing
on or about December 15, 2005. "Acceptance of an offer is a manifestation of assent to
the terms thereof made by the offeree in a manner invited or required by the offer."
Restat 2d of Contracts, §50. At the closing, Defendant signed the closing documents
agreeing to the terms of the Mortgage and securing the 37 Pepperell Road property with
the Note, in the form offered by MEP. The Court interprets the signed agreements as they
are written.
Even if the Court were to find that the note did not properly report the loan
amount, the Defendant signed the Loan Adjustment Agreement in 2008, reasserting the
amount owed and waiving any previously arising defenses to the amount due.
Defendant's argument that he was induced to execute the mortgage and note in 2005
under the pretense that the amount due would change, was waived at the time of the
execution of the Loan Adjustment Agreement. Finally, the fact that the description of the
property attached to the Mortgage secured only one of the parcels owned by Defendant
and his wife does not affect Plaintiff's ability to enforce the Mortgage agreement with
respect to the encumbered parcel.
4 ill. Conclusion
The Court finds that there has been a breach of conditions in Bayview Loan
Servicing, LLC (hereinafter "BLS")'s Mortgage, that there is due BLS on its Note and
Mortgage the principal amount of $964,660.60, interest thereon to November 2, 2012 in
the amount of $166,792.00 with additional interest accruing on said principal balance at
the note rate of 6.25%, default interest in the amount of $179,622.88 accruing on said
principal balance at the note rate of 7.00%, late charges in the amount of $1,201.38,
escrow advances of $20,710.70, corporate advances of $2,482.25, attorneys' fees and
costs for services provided by Bendett & McHugh, P.C. in the amount of $3,053.25 (as
indicated in the Affidavit of Elizabeth M. Crowe, dated November 6, 2012), plus any
additional fees and costs incurred for trial and post-judgment proceedings, through and
including the sale of the property.
