Building on its success in helping Florida homeowners, Chase announced that
it will host multi-day Homeowner Assistance Events exclusively for
struggling Chase homeowners in eight major U.S. markets this year."We have increased borrower participation dramatically by concentrating our
reach-out efforts and bringing together dozens of Chase loan counselors for
several days," said Dave Lowman, head of home lending at Chase. "Most
importantly, we have been able to help many, many families stay in their
homes."Over the next five months, up to 40 Chase counselors will work with
homeowners as long as 12 hours a day for four or five days in a central
location, like a civic center or community college.Many of the counselors are based in the 51 Chase Homeownership Centers
across the country. Chase began opening the centers in early 2009 to provide
face-to-face counseling to homeowners who have fallen behind on their
mortgages. The centers are open six days a week, including evening hours.Chase began the multi-day events in Florida, where counselors met with 3,200
customers. Half the homeowners spoke to a counselor in less than 10 minutes,
and a total of 85% waited no more than 30 minutes before speaking one-on-one
with a counselor. Nearly three-quarters of the customers said their
experience was excellent while another 12% said it was very good."We are building on the terrific customer experiences at our Chase
Homeownership Centers across the country," Lowman said. "The centers have
provided personalized help to more than 91,000 borrowers, and we expect
these events will helps thousands more in just a few days."Chase plans to host multi-day events in the following markets:
