A mortgage lender or bank can act improperly giving rise to a claim for wrongful foreclosure in many ways, including:
- Not properly sending a notice of default before initiating the foreclosure process
- Failing to properly send the notice acceleration
- Not properly sending the notice of sale
- Failing to timely send the notice of sale
- Notice of sale not send certified mail
- Initiating the foreclosure process when borrower was not actually in default
- Telling the borrower that the foreclosure sale would not proceed but does so anyway
- Selling the property for an amount which is grossly under the actual value
If your mortgage lender or bank has engaged in any of the above acts, you may have a case for wrongful foreclosure. There are other errors and/or intentional acts that the mortgage company or bank can engage in that can also subject it to liability for wrongful foreclosure.
When a bank or mortgage company has acted wrongfully in the mortgage foreclosure process, the possible options available to the wronged homeowner include:
- Seeking a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) from a court to stop the foreclosure process before the sale occurs
- Seeking a Temporary Restraining Order after the sale to stop you from being evicted by the bank or foreclosure sale purchaser
- Seeking a rescission of the foreclosure (undo the whole transaction)
- Seeking money damages against the mortgage company or bank
If you are the victim of a potential or actual wrongful foreclosure, it is critical that you retain a lawyer immediately to protect your rights and your most valuable asset.
