Foreclosure Should Be a ‘Fore’ Letter Word

A San Jose bankruptcy attorney explains why Foreclosure Should Be a ‘Fore’ Letter Word

In a recent first quarter study published by RealtyTrac, the largest publisher of foreclosure databases, nationwide foreclosures rose seven percent or approximately 930,000 homes. What does this equate to in the real world? Take a walk around town and count 137 homes. Every time you count your 138th home, that home has been foreclosed upon and another family must find a new place to live.

Currently, California boasts the fourth highest foreclosure rate in the country, behind only Nevada, Arizona, and Florida. According to the study, one in every 62 Californians received a foreclosure filing in the first quarter of 2010. Not surprisingly, California boasts another fourth place finish … unemployment. Currently, 12.6% of Californians are unemployed. Is it any coincidence that as the unemployment rate increases, so does the foreclosure rate?

With no end in sight, how does the average American family of 2.93 people protect themselves from being forced out of their homes following the real estate’s tomfoolery of predatory lending? Americans can turn to bankruptcy for protection of their home which they worked so hard to obtain. The government has created subsidized loan modifications to attempt to assist, but to date that has failed. One advantage of bankruptcy is that it does not entice anyone to purposely default on their loan obligations in order to get better repayment terms. In opposition banks have fought vigorously in Congress to ensure that bankruptcy judges are stripped of any power to adjust loan terms. Said opposition throws fuel on the foreclosure fire.
