Sections 1-8 of this Bill provide that the Mortgage Rescue Fraud Protection Act in 6 Del. C. Chapter 24B will protect homeowners 60 days in default on their mortgage loans. Currently the protections are in effect after an action for foreclosure is filed. Section 9 creates a registration requirement for Mortgage Loan Modification Companies that provide services to Delaware residents. Written contracts with disclosures are required and no fees can be collected in advance. The registration and renewal fees can be used to support foreclosure relief programs. The law is enforced by the Attorney General.

An Act To Amend Title 6 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Foreclosure Consultants And Mortgage Modification Service Providers.
