Home Owner's Rights

Information About Your Rights as a Home Owner

A homeowner who has had foreclosure proceedings initiated on their property is still in possession of certain rights, most important of which is the right of possession.  These rights, if exercised, may result in the individual being able to stop a foreclosure outright.  For example, every homeowner is afforded the right to negotiate with their lender following the receipt of a notice of default.  The individual may discuss different payment options or plans with their lender, or a modification to their loan that serves to lower their monthly payments and enable them to more easily meet their financial obligation.  They may also negotiate a private sale with the lender, which frequently results in a higher selling price than the lender would receive in a foreclosure sale.  As noted, a homeowner also possesses the right to remain in their home for the duration of foreclosure proceedings, and they do not have to vacate until a decision has been made by a court and the home has been sold to another party.
