Solutions for Mortgage Foreclosure

If you want to save your home and you have not yet applied for a loan modification, you should do so right away. Many courts, including the Circuit Court of Cook County, now have mediation programs. Foreclosure defendants can request to participate in these programs and attempt to negotiate a solution – such as a loan modification – with their mortgage company.

Unfortunately, some homeowners can no longer afford their homes. If you are in that situation, there are options available, such as a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a short sale. You should consult with an experienced Chicago mortgage foreclosure attorney before you pursue these options, as you may still end up personally liable for the difference between the short sale amount and the balance owed on the loan. In addition, some lenders will pay “cash for keys” and give you cash in exchange for moving out of the property by a certain date and leaving the property in good condition.

Second Mortgage and Line of Credit Debt Collection Suits

We have found that debt buyers are suing people over second mortgages and for lines of credit they may not legally be entitled to collect. We have been able to assert defenses and obtain favorable resolutions for consumers being sued over old second mortgages and lines of credit. If you are being sued by a debt buyer to collect a second mortgage that has been in default for many years, contact us to see if you have a defense.
