Losing your home deals a harsh blow to your family. With the massive increase in foreclosure filings in recent years, more and more courts are taking extra special care to make sure the foreclosure is done properly and without glitches. If you believe the foreclosure on your home is wrongful you can and should challenge its validity. Doing so will ensure the process proceeds as it should and that the result is correct.
Florida foreclosures, like every other state, should only be initiated by the lender that has the right to take back possession of the home. Common errors made by foreclosing lenders include:
● Foreclosing without the proper documentation.
● Foreclosing on an active duty military member.
● Failing to account for the amount due or being able to prove the note is in default.
● Starting a case with documents that were not signed by you (either a forgery, or simply not signed at all).
If you have any doubt as to whether the foreclosure on your house is proper, call our office. When things don’t seem right, they usually aren’t. You have the right to make sure the lender has the right to foreclose on you and that they provide proof of the debt as well as the amount they claim to be past due. You are entitled to an accurate pay history and to see the originals of the loan documents. When a lender fails to abide by the rules and regulations governing foreclosures, the process should go no further. This has been the general feeling across the country and the courts are not ignoring the severity of displacing people from their homes. This is your “day in Court” and you should take full advantage of the opportunity to challenge the possible loss of your home.
