Facing foreclosure? Put together a plan. Take action.
If your home is in foreclosure, you don’t have time to waste. You need to know your options and The Foreclosure Survival Guide can help. You’ll learn how to:
• determine whether you should try to keep your house
• find loss mitigation programs that could help you save your home
• apply for mortgage relief from your lender
• avoid foreclosure rescue scams
• bring your loan current in Chapter 13 bankruptcy, and
• if you can’t stay in your home, avoid unnecessary costs by filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
This edition’s powerful yet practical advice also explains your most important tool—the 120-day foreclosure waiting period before foreclosure starts. You’ll also find information on foreclosure procedures, potential tax consequences, and more.
In addition, this updated edition includes a new chapter covering HOA liens, foreclosures, and what you can do if your HOA threatens you with foreclosure.
