Lee County Foreclosure Defense

Attorneys Serving Homeowners in Fort Myers and Naples, Florida

Foreclosure is a legal process wherein a mortgage lender essentially takes action to obtain ownership of a property when the borrower has gone into default on the loan. If a homeowner falls behind on his or her payments, this may be grounds for a lender to file a lawsuit against the homeowner to recover losses. The lender will typically repossess the property through foreclosure and then sell the property to regain part or all of its losses.

Alternatives to Foreclosure

When a homeowner falls behind on his or her mortgage payments and has not yet had a foreclosure suit filed against him or her, there may be different alternatives he or she may explore. A short sale or deed in lieu of foreclosure may allow a borrower to keep a foreclosure off his or her credit report. A short refinance may allow a borrower to keep his or her home while cutting the loan amount down significantly.
