Foreclosure FAQ Continued
A San Francisco bankruptcy attorney continues to answer your foreclosure concerns.
If my home is sold at foreclosure do I have to immediately leave?
No. State law provides for a certain amount of time before the borrower must vacate the foreclosed property. If a borrower remains in the property after the date given to vacate, the new owner will generally take legal action to try and remove the occupant.
How can bankruptcy help with foreclosure?
Filing for bankruptcy not only stops a foreclosure date, but also allows for the borrower to try and develop a feasible repayment plan. The repayment plan is available under chapter 13 of the bankruptcy code. Under chapter 13, the borrower will make monthly payments to the bankruptcy trustee, who is in charge of disbursing the payments to the lender. The borrower is required to resume making their monthly mortgage payment to the lender.
