Very often, when someone contacts a loan modification attorney they really do not understand how the foreclosure process works or how to stop it. People who do not understand foreclosure proceedings are often scared, timid and unwilling to do what it takes to stay in their homes. Many think that if they just ignore their lenders, they will go away. However, inaction is not any way to respond to a potential foreclosure. The only way to mount a successful defense to foreclosure proceedings is to know how the process works, and talk to the loan modification attorneys who know how to stop it.
Foreclosure Process
The first step in the foreclosure process begins when a lender files a “Notice of Default” with the county recorder. This often proceeds a period of non-payment by the borrower, meaning the homeowner is defaulting on the loan by not making payments. This notice is mailed to the borrower and any other affected parties. This is in no way the end of the process; in fact, up to five business days before the trustee’s sale, the borrower can pay off the default amount plus any addition fees and/or fines and stop the foreclosure process. Obviously, very few people can simply cough up the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars it would take to pay this amount.
The second step comes ninety days after the Notice of Default is recorded. A “Notice of Sale” must be posted on the property and in one local public location, such as a library or town hall. The Notice of Sale is also published once a week for three weeks in a newspaper of some sort in the area. The Notice of Sale must clearly state the date, time and location of the sale, as well as the property address, the trustee’s contact information and any other pertinent information.
Step three usually occurs about four months after the foreclosure process began. The Trustee Sale Auction is held as a public auction at the time and place designated by the Notice of Sale. It is conducted by the lender’s representative, almost always an attorney, and the successful bidder must pay immediately with cash or a cashier’s check. The lender often bids in the amount of the balance due plus costs. If no one else bids (which is usually the case these days), the property reverts to the lender.
Contrary to popular belief, the lender or bank you got your mortgage from does not want your house back. The entire foreclosure process costs the lender far more than it is worth. The lender is not only losing money on the four months you aren’t paying your mortgage, but will most likely lose money paid to the attorney who runs the auction. A loan modification attorney can help you avoid foreclosure and stay in your home. Both you and your lender are interested in you keeping your home, and a loan modification attorney can help you avoid the headache, heartache and embarrassment of a foreclosure.

Is your current mortgage payment (Including property tax and insurance) more than 31% of your income? The governments “Making Home Affordable” program is incredibly generous, the home equivalent of the “Cash for Clunkers” program.
We (At www.illinoismortgagemods.com) have achieved mortgage payment reductions of over 50% for clients that were never late on their mortgage- they had just experienced or were about to experience a reduction in income. This includes clients that had their new mortgage payments calculated and reset based on their impending pension income rather than current employed income!
There are 37 lenders participating in the “Making Home Affordable” program and working with them makes predicting an outcome easier however, we have also achieved mortgage modification for Non-participating lenders (Including West Suburban Bank and Key Bank).

Please contact us ASAP so that we can review your situation and determine whether the “Making Home Affordable” program is likely to be available to you.
Our attorney can be retained for only $500 upfront with any/all remaining funds due AFTER a loan modification has been offered to you.

As reported by Globe St.’s Brian K. Miller, Arizona has approved plans to auction its “State Capitol Executive Tower” in a 20 year sale-leaseback. The tower houses the offices of the secretary of state, state treasurer and Governor and has an estimated value of $40 million. Arizona was forced into this predicament because of its current budget shortfall, which currently stands at around $3.2 billion.
However unlikely, this is just one example of a growing trend of government sale-leasebacks. California plans to sell $2 billion (or 62% of Arizona’s budget deficit) worth of government real estate, including the Attorney Generals Office, in a similar sale-leaseback. The City of Alexandria, VA, is considering the same thing with a host of its properties and Chicago has already performed sale-leasebacks with the “Skyway toll road, downtown parking garages and downtown parking meter system” for $3 billion. Sale-leasebacks make sense for governments because they allow them to get cash now to pay off their debts while retaining the option to buy back the property in 20 years or so.
Investors have shown a great deal of interest in these properties because their tenants (the government and in-effect, taxpayers) have strong credit ratings and in some cases will return twice what the investor pays. Not surprisingly, interest goes beyond political boundaries, as it is reported that international investors are heavily intrigued by these sale-leasebacks. This creates a bit of an irony, because in theory, you could have a U.S. State Capitol building owned by China.
Sale-leasebacks are generally structured as net leases, giving strength to a segment, which as Michelle Napoli pointed out, is already one of the most active in this current market.

Getting quality goods is of course something we all worry about from time to time but if you choose carefully from the onset then there is nothing to fear.
If you are strongly considering the purchase of cheap exterior doors, don’t fret about the potential cost of such goods because with a range of more affordable materials being used for exterior doors, suppliers can provide them to a consumer at a much more competitive price.
Buying exterior doors, ensuring quality
As the well-known saying goes, “quality always comes at a price”, so you may be concerned that investing in a cheaper type of door compared with an expensive counterpart could end up being a foolish investment in the long run. All doors that are of excellent quality are tested vigorously in line with British standards to ensure quality so when you purchase cheap exterior doors, look for the kite mark as this will indicate that a door of choice has undergone such testing and will face the “test of time”.
Fact: It is highly recommended that any exterior doors (no matter where it is located in the home) should incorporate hardwood in order to protect your property as adequately as possible. Pine exterior doors are available though if your budget is very tight or they are just needed as a temporary measure.
Security methods
If you are looking to purchase a much more cheaply priced door, security can often be an issue but as long as you ensure that all security measures are met and that a door fits correctly in the first place, this will be fine. An initiative started by the UK Police force is that of “Secured by Design”. The scheme works by informing residents of minimum and potentially essential security features that need to be included on exterior doors.
- If an exterior door has a glass panel then this should be fitted with laminated glass, it is known to reduce the risks of a possible break in. A minimum thickness of 6.4mm is suggested. It is vital to remember that it will cost more to have laminated glass fitted but for the extra expense, it will prove worthwhile in terms of enhanced security.
- Exterior doors should have (as standard) a BS 3621, five-lever mortice lock installed. If you are unsure as to the quality of a particular lock then look for the British kite mark logo, this insignia means it is of the best quality and in line with set industry standards
There are plenty of other essential components that should be included with the fitting of any cheap exterior door, such as:
1. All frames and the doors themselves MUST fit correctly and will need to be in excellent condition.
2. As with any type of lock when buying a new door, always look for the kite mark logo to ensure that essential British standards are met.
If you have weighed up all the options available and decided that you definitely do want to purchase cheap exterior doors then there is an excellent range available where one may be surprised about the level of choice available. Search online for exterior doors online and look for a website of a supplier in your area. Many of them will have a full catalogue of exterior doors and you can select one or more that suits your home and your budget.
