FHA Hope for Homeowners Program:
Homeowners that are struggling with their mortgage may be able to take advantage of the FHA's Hope for Homeowners program, which may lower your fixed rate and your monthly mortgage payments. -
Buying Property in Foreclosure:
The state of California has strict rules regarding the purchase of property in foreclosure and any violation of those rules may have severe penalties. To avoid these problems, it is advisable to hire an experienced real estate attorney to guide you through the process. -
Short Sales:
In a short sale, the homeowner sells a mortgaged property for less than the outstanding balance of the loan and turns over the proceeds of the sale to lender, who will usually accept this lower amount to satisfy the loan. -
Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure:
In some cases, you may be able to avoid foreclosure and protect your credit with a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In this process, the homeowner will hand over the property to the lender, who will then sell the property, while relieving the homeowner of any liability for the mortgage payments. -
Commercial Foreclosure:
When a business is in foreclosure, there may be many complex issues that require a knowledgeable attorney to solve. Commercial foreclosure is a long, complicated process, but our firm has the experience that your business needs.
