Subject: Demurrer reversed based on allegations of modification agreement alleging formation of contract
In a homeowner’s suit for breach of contract arising from the failed loan modification and eventual foreclosure sale of her home, trial court’s order sustaining a demurrer is reversed to the extent it is based on allegations regarding the parties’ modification agreement, as plaintiff alleged formation of a valid contract to modify her loan documents and sufficiently alleged breach of that modification agreement. Further, plaintiff should be permitted to allege a cause of action for breach of covenant and good faith and fair dealing based on breach of the modification agreement and also be permitted to amend the complaint to allege a cause of action for common law wrongful foreclosure based on the valid modification agreement.
