Debbie4+ years in Alabama

July 15, 2025

Alabama is the perfect place to raise a family. The neighbourhood we have lived in for 21 years is like the best of both worlds. We all look out for each other while at the same time respecting each other’s privacy. We have great schools and a park below the house and a baseball field for the younger children to play baseball and softball. We have a zero crime rate and I love it here. We are being forced to leave our beloved home after 21 years of paying on a 30 year mortgage by a lender who bought our loan and then manipulated the numbers until they foreclosed on our home. I have no clue how they got away with it but that doesn’t change the way I feel about living in Alabama. It’s simply the best. Please don’t hold my comments back. I deserve to be heard by everyone. Thank you. Debbie
