HAVING FORECLOSURE TROUBLES?

WHAT IS A FORECLOSURE?

After a homeowner has failed to keep up with mortgage payments, foreclosure is the process of the bank trying to reclaim the property. The house will often go to auction and if it’s not sold, the house will become the property of the lender.

TYPES OF FORECLOSURE

JUDICIAL

In this case, the process is handled by the court system. The homeowner will receive a civil lawsuit and a notice of pendency is performed. A notice of pendency makes it impossible for the property to be sold or for someone to get a mortgage on it. The lender will then make a decision on whether the house will go into foreclosure and the court can either agree or disagree. This process can take between four and eight months.

NON-JUDICIAL

With a non-judicial foreclosure, a deed of trust is given to a third party. They will hold the deed as security until the mortgage can be brought up to date. At this point, the process of foreclosure can begin. In this case, a Notice of Default is given to the homeowner and they are given a certain amount of time before they have to repay the debt. This process can take up to a year to complete.

CAN YOU AVOID FORECLOSURE?

To prevent a foreclosure, it is best to work directly with your lender. Be sure to work only with your lender or a counseling agency and be wary of trusting other services. Your lender may be able to agree on lower mortgage payments or refinancing the mortgage in order to make payments easier. You should also look at your budget to find areas where you can minimize expenses.

CAN THE GOVERNMENT HELP?

There are several programs that are available through the government. One program is through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development which helps homeowners avoid foreclosure. Others include Making Home Affordable Program and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
