ROYAL OAKS - In your central coast economy, a family hangs on, but the bank gives them the boot.
It's a place that one central coast family called home for 14 years, but they claim they can't catch a break with the bank.
The Royal Oaks homeowner said after filing bankruptcy three times this year, there's still no help for her, or her family.
"We thought we'd be here forever. We did everything we could. We thought we did everything right," said Brandie Hannon, choking back tears.
Hannon said that still wasn't enough to save her home on Tuckahoe.
In the last year, her husband, a type one diabetic, went into kidney failure and all their money went to paying for medical bills.
So, she said she went to Wells Fargo to ask for a mortgage modification.
"We can make payments. They just need to be smaller than what they expect from us right now, stretch it out over a longer amount of time, lower the interest rate, whatever," she said. "Just keep families in their homes."
But she said the bank wouldn't work with her.
Central Coast News reached out to Wells Fargo and it said it's not ready to comment on this case.
The bank did say since January of 2009, it's helped nearly 800,000 customers avoid foreclosure through modifications.
As for Hannon, she said she's still waiting for help.
"I'm not giving up. I'm not giving up," she said. "It's wrong. It's immmoral what they've done to us. They accepted billions of dollars in taxpayer bailout money to make homes affordable, then make homes affordable."
Now it's a waiting game for Hannon, trying to save both her husband and her home.
"This, on top of it, has just become unbearable," she said.
