I can't even begin to thank you enough for the amazing service you provided us. I must admit, I came to you with small expectations. My husband Doug had been laid off and we were 2 months behind on our mortgage.
You took the bull by the horns and immediately started talking with our mortgage company. Before we knew it, we had worked out a deal to keep our home and keep our payments the same.
What really impressed us was the sensitivity you used in working with us and allowing us to maintain our dignity throughout this unfortunate period. Thanks again."

Judicial Foreclosure
Generally, in judicial foreclosure, a court decrees the amount of the borrowers debt and gives him or her a short time to pay. If the borrower fails to pay within that time, the clerk of the court then advertises the property for sale.
At some point prior to the scheduled date of foreclosure, an appraisal of the property must be made. If the foreclosure sale price is less than two-thirds of the appraised value, the borrower has a period of one year (12 months) from the date of the sale to redeem the property by paying the amount for which the property was sold, plus interest.
It is possible to obtain a deficiency judgment against the borrower for the difference between the amount the borrower owed on the original loan and the foreclosure sale price, but only if the borrower was personally served with the lawsuit, or failed to answer.
