When You’re Facing Foreclosure, Do You Have Options?

Pre-Foreclosure Sale
If you have equity in your home, one way to prevent foreclosure is by selling and using the proceeds to pay off your loan.
Loan Modification
A skilled foreclosure lawyer may be able to negotiate a loan modification that lowers your payments temporarily or permanently.
Short Sale Negotiation
A foreclosure defense attorney can negotiate with your lender to sell your home for less than the loan amount. This mitigates the hit your credit would normally take due to foreclosure.
Mortgage Litigation
With the help of a foreclosure attorney, borrowers can defend their rights by citing breach of contract, mortgage fraud, unfair lending practices, or other concerns.
Chapter 7
Although Chapter 7 bankruptcy won’t remove any liens on your home, it does trigger an automatic stay that temporarily halts foreclosure.
Chapter 13
If keeping your home is your top priority, Chapter 13 bankruptcy provides a path to debt reorganization that may allow you to retain ownership.
