Exploring Your Foreclosure Defense Options

When we work with our clients, we take various steps to help them discover the foreclosure defense solutions that work best for them. In addition to considering their property values and financial situations, we also thoroughly review their loan documents. We check to see if there is any missing paperwork, mistakes on paperwork or even forged paperwork. There are many scenarios in which the bank or mortgage company made errors that can be used as a defense for the homeowner, including errors in the foreclosure process. We are equipped to help clients who want to take advantage of short sales, deed in lieu options and other options for getting rid of a distressed property that is no longer of value to the homeowner. When these tactics are used, it is vital that the homeowner obtain a waiver of deficiency so that he or she does not end up facing harmful financial liability later on.
