A Lowell real-estate broker is charged with stealing more than $ 165,000 from homeowners facing foreclosure, according to a press release from Attorney General Maura Healey. Kevin Taing, 49, allegedly persuaded three separate homeowners in Lowell and Lynn who were facing foreclosure to make payments to his company, Eastern Funding & Investment Inc., instead of to the holders of their mortgage loans, and then used the money for himself, according to the press release.
