Chase today marked the official opening of new homeownership centers in the Bronx and Brooklyn to help families struggling with their mortgage payments. “We created these local Homeownership Centers as a place for our borrowers to sit down and discuss their situation face-to-face with trained loan advisors in these challenging times”

Chase now has five centers in the Tri-State area providing face-to-face assistance to distressed borrowers who have a loan serviced by Chase.

“We created these local Homeownership Centers as a place for our borrowers to sit down and discuss their situation face-to-face with trained loan advisors in these challenging times”

The Jersey City center is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and by appointment on Wednesday until 8 p.m. All other centers are open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.

Customers who are late on mortgages from Chase, Washington Mutual or EMC may call the nearest homeownership center listed above to make an appointment with an advisor.

Customers may call (866) 550-5705 if they:

* Are current with payments but face financial hardship, which may lead to default
* Would like more information

The company opened 37 centers around the country since 2009, and plans to open 14 more by this spring.
