“How Could This Happen to Me?”

It’s heartbreaking to hear those words coming from homeowners on the brink of losing their property through foreclosure proceedings. Unfortunately, it seems like it’s a daily story in the news.

I recently read a story about a Jacksonville, Fla. woman describing her desperation as foreclosure proceedings closed in on a small home she had faithfully made payments on from 1999 to 2004. Then sickness and loss of a job left her unable to keep up with soaring mortgage payments and the many fees that were quickly tacked on by the loan holder. The more she tried to make smaller payments, the more the bank demanded full payment or nothing.
