Writen by Sakhi Jan

What is meant by foreclosure?

Literally speaking, a foreclosure is referring to as loss of ownership from a property when a loan is not duly repaid. For one reason the terms and conditions have to be strict. You may ask why? Countering which I may ask that what would happen when I miss my mortgage payments? In this case Foreclosure may occur. By this legal procedure your lender can use to take over your home. In this case you must move out of your house.

How can foreclosure be a risky business and how may I avoid it?

All I should say on this part is that it is a real time threat for those who are defaulters. If you have not paid off all your dues, taxes or any other sort of debts within given time frame that does necessarily mean that you are on top of the list. The simplest way of avoiding is to keep your self a non-defaulter.

How foreclosure does accommodate in real estate?

Another scenario of Foreclosure is that given your property is worth less than the total amount you own, your mortgage loan will result in deficiency of judgment which would ultimately result in selling out your property at cheaper prices. So it is better if you are paying off all your dues inside allotted time period to avoid being included in the foreclosure listings.

Is there any way out; once being included in the foreclosure listings?

Once you are into it, the only way out of such situation is that you should keep all your letters and legal documents those have been signed between you and your landlord to counter any illegitimate claims by the owner.

What are the margins and flexibilities of foreclosure?

The margins of Foreclosure are beyond buying and selling. The scope at which it is growing is worrisome in one sense of the word and awesome in the very best sense of the word. Since it is being fluently practiced in institutional system where recovering debts and taxes is a big deal, this is the reason why it is not widely appreciated by defaulters. It is like once a bank is in listings; it will then be given a suitable time period to pay off all its dues failing which means government will have all the rights of an ownership of the said bank. The authority of an individual over his home or a group of people over an institution is no more legitimate once the home or the institution is held for listings.

Is foreclosure legitimate or an illegitimate business?

To answer this, I would say that those who are sincere in dealings would always recommend it over those who don't believe in fair dealings. The ethical aspect of the said system should never be ignored while criticizing the proposed system.
