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.
Once the process begins, a foreclosure notice must be: 1) posted in the county office of the county where the property is located; 2) posted on the property in foreclosure; and 3) published in two (2) newspapers in the county. The lender must also notify the borrower at least ten (10) days prior to the foreclosure sale.
It is possible for the lender to obtain a deficiency judgment and borrowers have a right to redemption and/or objection within ten (10) days after the sale.
