Taylor Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Company was a hugely successful mortgage origination and servicing company that was affiliated with Colonial BancGroup. On August 5, 2009, it was shut down. Taylor Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Company was based in Alabama, and did a tremendous amount of loan originations in Georgia and Florida. We have published a number of stories on the aftermath of the FDIC shutdown of Colonial BancGroup as well as the shutdown of Taylor Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Company after FHA declined to do business with it (following a pullback from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae). Hundreds of thousands of mortgage customers have had trouble figuring out what is going on with their loans. We attempt to shed light on that.
