Understanding Foreclosure in New York
Foreclosure is the legal process through which a lender repossesses a property because of missed mortgage payments. Foreclosure can also happen if you fail to pay property taxes or homeowners association (HOA) fees. During foreclosure, the mortgage lender may seize the property and sell it to recoup the money it lost from the mortgage default.

Are you or someone you love facing foreclosure? The worst thing you can do is ignore the problem. Some people assume that they can delay the process by doing nothing. This approach, however, can make the issue much worse.
Fortunately, you have options for defending against foreclosure, including the following:
Loan modification: A loan modification is a change to the terms of your mortgage, such as reducing interest rates or extending the length of the loan. This can make payments more manageable and help you avoid foreclosure.
Short sale: If you owe more on your home than it is worth, a short sale may be an option. In this scenario, the lender agrees to let you sell the property for less than what is owed on the mortgage.
Bankruptcy: Filing for bankruptcy can put an immediate stop to foreclosure proceedings and give you time to reorganize your finances.
Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure: In this option, you voluntarily transfer ownership of your home to the lender to satisfy the mortgage debt.
Arguing loan servicer or lender errors: Mistakes on the part of your lender or loan servicer could be used to assert that foreclosure is unjustified.
