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 court then issues a notice of sale.
The notice of sale must contain a legal description of the property and state the place, the time and the date, which must be at least thirty (30) days after the notice of sale is issued, on which the foreclosure sale is to be held. The property will then be sold to the highest bidder on the date specified in the notice.
In most cases, the borrower has up to nine (9) months to redeem the property by paying the amount of the highest bid at the foreclosure sale, plus costs and interest.
Non-judicial foreclosure is only available for commercial and business properties valued at over $500,000.
