2. Her 65 yo son stopped making her mortgage payments.
He said he had gotten many notices but he just 'didn't think they(the bank) would actually do it.' He's the number one villain to my way of thinking.

3. He stopped making them seven years ago, too--he's had a free ride ever since.
The son is an asshole.

5. Not mortgage payments-- property tax payments

The house was paid for a long time ago.

On edit: The Feds have paid the back taxes and the woman can move back into her house.
