Helping You Understand Your Rights And Options
Divorce and foreclosure often go together. Divorce frequently creates financial difficulties for both spouses — all marital assets must be divided, and two households are more expensive to maintain than one. Consequently, many divorced homeowners find themselves unable to stay current on their monthly mortgage payments, which leads to foreclosure.
On the other hand, many divorces stem from unstable relationships plagued by financial concerns or disagreements. Foreclosure may be the last straw before the two parties decide to part ways.

If you are facing the prospect of divorce, there are options that could allow you and your spouse to dispose of your home, as well as options that could allow one spouse to remain in the home.
