Mortgage help offered in Mastic Beach
The center is run by the state Department of Financial Services.
Mastic Beach residents at risk of losing their homes can learn about foreclosure prevention programs on Friday.
Homeowners should bring any relevant documents, such as records of mortgage payments or letters from lenders or mortgage servicers.
The department advises people to beware of mortgage rescue scams by private businesses, which may improperly demand up-front fees, collect homeowners’ mortgage payments or ask them to sign over their home’s deed.
Complaints can be filed at www.dfs.ny.gov. The agency’s foreclosure hotlines, 800-269-0990 and 518-457-1654, are open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
