Washington, DC – Today, Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, top Democrat on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and Senator Elizabeth Warren, member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs, called on the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to investigate threats to consumers arising from the growth in non-bank mortgage servicing. In their letter to U.S. Comptroller General Gene Dodaro, Cummings and Warren noted that as the non-bank share of the mortgage servicing market grew by 300% from 2011 to 2013, lack of servicing capacity at non-bank servicers led to increased consumer complaints and lawsuits.
