Rio Rancho, NM asked in Bankruptcy for New Mexico

Q: Can Nationstar purchase our mortgage from B of A on 3-16-2013 and declared it in default on 4-3-2013?

Nationstar purchased our mortgage from BofA on 3-16-2013 and sent us a letter dated 4-3-2013 saying it was 30 days or more past due and was in default. We were paying twice a month to BofA and they took out the payment on March 1 but not on March 15. We paid the total monthly payment to Nationstart on April 1. The letter from Nationstar also offered refinancing. This seems like fraud.
