"I was so stressed out in trying to figure out how I was going to stop foreclosure from happening to me that I actually had to see a doctor for stress. I struggled hard to buy my condo and wanted to keep my home and save my home from foreclosure. But it was getting difficult because the mortgage amount kept going up. I had an adjustable rate mortgage and the rate kept rising. On top of that, I lost my job and got behind in payments. I thought that this was it, I was not going to be able to stop foreclosure. Then I found 1st Foreclosure Prevention. They were able to stop foreclosure from happening to me and allow me to keep my condo. I am now all caught up, have a new job and happier than ever thanks to them."
"The bank was actually selling our house right out from under us! I didn't think it was possible, but we live in a state where the bank can start selling your home if you do not pay your mortgage. So we got a notice that they were selling and didn't know what to do. We weren't even sure we wanted to live there anymore as it was worth a lot less than what we paid for it. But we had no idea about the impact foreclosure has until we learned about it from a friend. We did want to be able to get a fresh start and didn't want a foreclosure haunting us for years to come. So we contacted 1st Foreclosure Prevention and they were able to help us stop foreclosure. They stopped the sale and then helped us sell our house. They really ended up saving us."
"I'm really glad that 1st Foreclosure Prevention was able to help me with my mortgage problems. I was already in the foreclosure process when I called them for a free foreclosure evaluation. They were really nice and explained a lot of things to me that I didn't know, including how to stop foreclosure. I didn't even know that I could do that! They were able to work out a deal with my bank so that I was able to keep my home and pay less on the mortgage. Now I am able to afford my home and even save a little money, thanks to this company. I can't say enough good things about them."
"We were pretty shook up about losing our home. After all, we have been here over 30 years. But we refinanced our home to help our son buy his. Then he lost his job and went into foreclosure and had to move in with us. We were about to go through the same foreclosure process and then we'd have nowhere to go. We called 1st Foreclosure Prevention and then helped us understand a few things about how to stop foreclosure. I wish my son had called him as this could have helped him. But it did help us and we were able to keep our home, thanks to them. Our son is getting back on his feet, but he would have done better had he called them and not gone through foreclosure. We're pretty happy with the service they gave us."
"After my husband died, I couldn't the mortgage payments at all on our home. I didn't know what to do and had tons of medical bills. I was at my wits end and was struggling just to get up in the morning because the foreclosure was making me so depressed. I had no idea what to do and was just going to let the bank take the house since I couldn't afford the payments. A friend told me about 1st Foreclosure Prevention. I contacted them and they gave me a free foreclosure evaluation and told me what I could do to keep my home. They negotiated with my lender for me and helped me stop foreclosure. Best of all, they relieved my mind from worry. They were very nice and really knew how to give me foreclosure help. Thank you."
"We called 1st Foreclosure Prevention right away because a friend of ours who went through foreclosure in Florida told us about them. We knew that the sooner we acted to stop foreclosure, the better our chances. They gave us a lot of help and we were able to prevent foreclosure. Their loss mitigation specialists were great, too. They knew the laws in our state better than we did and they also had a lot of options for us that we never would have considered. Thanks to them, we are much better off. We're glad our friend recommended them and now we will do the same for others."

Stop Foreclosure Laws And Procedures
The foreclosure process differs depending on the state in which you live. Some states will allow only a judicial foreclosure, which means that the foreclosure process must go through the court system. The judicial foreclosure process generally takes longer than the non-judicial foreclosure process in which the lender can commence to the sale of your property after you have defaulted on your loan, without having to go through the court system. In some areas of the United States, only a non-judicial foreclosure is allowed. And in many states the lender has a choice on whether they want to choose a non-judicial foreclosure or a judicial foreclosure.
Here are our pledges to you:
In addition to the foreclosure process that differs from state to state, so do the rights of the borrower and the lender in foreclosure sales. Every state gives the borrower different rights when it comes to redeeming the property to stop foreclosure. Some states are more lenient with the borrowers and some have special rules for homestead property.
Lender rights also differ from state to state. Some state foreclosure laws will not permit a deficiency judgment if the sale of the property in a foreclosure auction is less than the amount owed by the borrower. Some states only permit a deficiency judgment based upon the value of the property at the time of foreclosure and some states will permit a very liberal deficiency judgment course that the lender can follow and even reclaim legal fees incurred during the foreclosure process.
The foreclosure process differs from state to state. If you feel that you may be facing foreclosure, there are many ways that loss mitigation agencies can help you stop foreclosure, but the process used by loss mitigation specialists will depend on the state in which you live and the foreclosure process and laws in that state. If you feel that you might be heading towards foreclosure, you should learn as much as possible about the foreclosure process and foreclosure laws in the state in which you live. Remember that the foreclosure process is different in every state and in the District of Columbia, so learn as much as you can about the laws so that you can stop foreclosure.
