FORECLOSURE

Cindee Dale Holmes Law Office | Foreclosure

Foreclosure is a process that begins when a borrower fails to make their mortgage payments.

When a home is foreclosed upon, the lender typically repossesses and attempts to sell the house.

This happens because mortgage loans are secured by real estate, meaning your home is used as collateral.

Which Bankruptcy Chapter Stops Foreclosure?

Chapters 7 and 13 will stop a foreclosure and can be helpful depending on your needs. However, the benefits you'll receive will differ significantly.

  • Chapter 7 can delay foreclosure temporarily, but nothing more. If you want to delay foreclosure by a few months but are willing to let go of your home, filing for Chapter 7 will be an option.

  • Chapter 13 can save your home from foreclosure. If you want to keep your home, consider filing for Chapter 13. People who can afford a hefty monthly Chapter 13 payment can catch up on late payments and keep their homes.

As soon as you file for bankruptcy, the court issues an "automatic stay" order stopping the foreclosure process.
