Foreclosure Defense
Where necessary, we actively defend against impending foreclosures in Florida courts. We start with forensic analysis of loan documents and review of the chain of title, and file counterclaims and dismissal motions where legally feasible.
Florida Homestead and Modification Strategy
Florida's unlimited homestead exemption makes keeping your home particularly valuable. We factor this protection into every modification and foreclosure strategy to maximize your position with lenders.
What to Expect
- Thorough analysis of your loan documents and financial situation
- Direct negotiation with your lender or servicer on your behalf
- Guidance through all documentation requests
- Trial modification leading to permanent modification upon successful payments
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does mortgage modification take in Florida?
The process typically takes 3-6 months depending on your lender and the complexity of your file. Acting early gives us more leverage and options. If foreclosure has already been filed, we can combine modification efforts with legal defenses to buy time.
Can I modify my mortgage if I am already in foreclosure in Florida?
Yes. In fact, an active foreclosure creates leverage for modification negotiations. We have helped many South Florida homeowners obtain modifications even after foreclosure proceedings began. The sooner you call us, the more options remain available.
What documents do I need for a Florida mortgage modification?
Lenders typically require 2 years of tax returns, 2-3 months of bank statements, recent pay stubs or proof of income, a hardship letter, and a monthly income/expense worksheet. We guide you through the entire documentation process.
