Seasoned Debt Lawyers Outline Some Options for Avoiding Foreclosure
When bills are mounting and it feels like you are drowning in debt, your attention can quickly turn to the topic of foreclosure. Will the bank take your home? Will you have to file for bankruptcy? Can filing for bankruptcy protection even save your home from foreclosure?
These are all good questions; the experienced lawyers at Brenner Spiller & Archer have the answers. We invite you to contact us for a free consultation to learn about your options, which include filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, debt negotiation or settlement, obtaining a loan modification and even selling your home in favor of downsizing into something you can better afford. The latter, of course, doesn’t save your home, but it does provide you with an alternative to foreclosure that may be able to save your credit to some extent.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: There are two basic options for a person who is considering filing for personal bankruptcy protection: Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. Chapter 13 bankruptcy is the option many choose when they are hoping to stave off foreclosure. Also called reorganization bankruptcy, Chapter 13 allows a person to set up a repayment plan to pay back creditors in smaller amounts over a longer period of time (usually three to five years). This includes paying back mortgage arrears and getting current with your loan. Doing so allows a homeowner to keep their home. This is a very complex area of the law; contact Brenner Spiller & Archer to learn more about how Chapter 13 bankruptcy can keep your home out of foreclosure.
Loan Modification: Your lawyer can explain the details of another popular option for saving your home from foreclosure: loan modification. In this program, you may be able to restructure your loan and reduce monthly payments. You may also be able to take some of your equity to pay down debt so you avoid bankruptcy.
