Green Tree is now rebranded to Ditech Mortgage. (The transition from Green Tree Servicing to Ditech Mortgage Corp occurred on March 1. Ditech Mortgage is one of the companies under the parent holding company, Walter Investments, and was included in the acquisition from ResCap last year.)

About halfway down the page.

I am anxiously waiting for this month's mortgage bill to see what it says.
when mortgage servicers change, by law you and I cannot be dinged for any payment mishaps.
In fact, by law, Green Tree is supposed to give us 60 or 90 days heads up of the change.
We shall see.
Pls. PM me if you hear anything?

Background:
Ditech and green Tree are both owned by Walter Investments.
Green Tree AND Walter Investments are being investigated by the Feds.
and a lot of Green Tree employees are already being hired by other mortgage companies.
ditech is apparently not...yet.

but Ditech has a slimy background.
back when General Motors Acceptance corp ( General Motors arm of car loans) got into trouble in 2008 in the tanking economy, the Treasury gave GM about 25 billion of the 700 billion TARP.
In turn, GM agreed to divest itself of GMAC.
GMAC was re-named Ally Financial and allowed to become a bank!!
so it could qualify for TARP money.
Well, Ditech was Ally's dept. with mortgages.

Later Ally sold Ditech to Walter Investments.

So seems funny that Green Tree would be investigated by not Ditech.
