Distress help
The notice is on the table and the clock is running, but foreclosure is a process with exits, and the best ones are taken early. This page lays out the real options, the honest timelines, and the one number you need to know before you do anything.
I have direct experience with bank-owned and short-sale transactions, and I will tell you plainly what is possible on your timeline.
Early action keeps the most doors open.
Your current value is the pivot: the bank approves a short sale only when the payoff shortfall is documented and reasonable. That valuation, and the negotiation around it, is exactly what I build for distressed homeowners. Get that number before the arrears and fees compound further.
This is hard, and it is common. The families who handle it best do three things: reply to the bank, take one honest valuation, and talk to a specialist early. I am the specialist for the property side, and I will connect you to the housing counselor and attorney for the rest. One step at a time, starting now.

Whether you are buying, selling, relocating, or just starting to explore, the first step is a free call. Bring your questions; I will bring the research.
