In today’s economy, foreclosure sales are happening with increased frequency. Foreclosure proceedings often start within three to four months after payments become delinquent, but it can also happen when the borrower fails to meet other terms in the mortgage document.

What Is Foreclosure? 
Foreclosure is the legal process by which a lender attempts to recover the amount owed on a default loan by taking ownership of the mortgaged property and selling it.

How Long Does Foreclosure Take? 
Properties foreclosed in the second quarter of 2021 had spent an average of 922 days in the foreclosure process, according to the U.S. Foreclosure Market Report from ATTOM Data Solutions, a property data provider. This is down slightly from the previous quarter’s average of 930 days, and up 34.5%, from 685 days, in the second quarter of 2020.

Filing A Lawsuit

Successful litigation defenses to foreclosure are due, in large part, to the unearthing of more and more evidence that the mortgage industry have been rife with errors. Courts that once rubber-stamped foreclosure actions have shifted their sympathies towards borrowers.

Saunders & Associates, APC, noticed this change in judicial attitude and challenge foreclosure actions in many different ways. Some of the most common defenses to foreclosure include:

Foreclosing bank didn’t follow the required State and Federal procedures;
 Foreclosing party can’t prove it owns the loan (it lacks “Standing”);
 Mortgage servicer made a serious mistake when handling your loan;
 Statute of limitations has passed;
 Servicer used a defective affidavit or declaration;
 Crediting your payments to the wrong party
 Dual-tracking in violation of Federal law or State law, if applicable;
 Imposing excessive fees or fees not authorized by mortgage contract;
 Substantially overstating the amount you must pay to reinstate your mortgage;
 Defective Affidavits and Declarations
