Below are some of your options regarding foreclosure:

Filing For Bankruptcy

It may be possible for us to help you catch up on mortgage payments through the filing of a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy involves the reorganization of your debts, allowing you to keep your home and putting an end to the looming foreclosure.

Short Sale

Carried out in order to prevent foreclosure, a short sale may be completed when a mortgage lender or bank agrees to discount a loan balance due to a mortgagor's economic hardship. Banks often allow this when it will result in a smaller financial loss than a foreclosure.

Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure

This type of document conveys all of the borrower's interest in their property to the lender in order to satisfy a loan that is in default, thus avoiding foreclosure. This is advantageous to the borrower in that the deed releases the borrower from all or most of the debt associated with the loan. For the borrower, financially, the use of the deed is often better than would have resulted from the foreclosure.

Though we are not a firm of tax attorneys, we have handled enough cases to provide you with general advice and information regarding the tax penalties that are related to bankruptcy and foreclosures.
