Foreclosure Prevention Project Director Meghan Faux Speaks Out In Media About Foreclosure Crisis


Meghan Faux, Director of the Foreclosure Prevention Program at South Brooklyn Legal Services, was recently featured in two different media outlets talking about problems facing homeowners during the economic crisis.

Faux was interviewed in City Limits magazine speaking about the fact that, despite reforms such as the Obama administration-sponsored Homeowner Affordable Mortgage Program (HAMP), homeowners are having trouble modifying their loans — in some cases, simply because bad data is leading loan servicers to deny modification requests.

“We need to know the data, to see if they are even using good information,” Faux said. “More often than not, when I’ve been able to check, they’ve been using inaccurate measures.”

Faux also recently spoke on the television program “Like It Is With Gil Noble,” where she and SBLS clients shared their feelings about current economic problems.
