File #: 168253 Plaintiff is HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, AS TRUSTEE FOR THE HOLDERS OF MASTR REPERFORMING LOAN TRUST 2005-1 3476 STATEVIEW BOULEVARD FORT MILL, SC 29715 2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: JAMES GRUNDON PAMELA S. DEHAVEN 430 HERMAN AVENUE LEMOYNE, PA 17043 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 12/11/1998 mortgagor(s) made, executed, and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to EQUITY ONE, INCORPORATED which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Book: 1505, Page: 963. PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record. 4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached. 5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 10/01/2006 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon are collectible forthwith. File #: 168253 6 The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $71,759.33 Interest $6,624.80 09/01/2006 through 01/03/2008 (Per Diem $13.52) Attorney's Fees $1,250.00 Cumulative Late Charges $0.00 12/11/1998 to 01/03/2008 Cost of Suit and Title Search $550.00 Subtotal $80,184.13 Escrow Credit $0.00 Deficit $1,942.30 Subtotal $1,942.30 TOTAL $82,126.43 7 8. If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam judgment) against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law. File #: 168253 9. This action does not come under Act 6 of 1974 because the original mortgage amount exceeds $50,000. 10. This action does not come under Act 91 of 1983 because the mortgage is FHA-insured. WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $82,126.43, together with interest from 01/03/2008 at the rate of $13.52 per diem to the date of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.
