Program Description
 
In response to the most significant recession since the Great Depression, the Federal government and others have created programs designed to keep people in their homes.  Lawyers tend not to get involved in helping homeowners pursue loan modifications.  Homeowners have access to free, high-quality advice delivered by benevolent non-profits.   However, the available loan modification programs fail many home owners who have no choice but to “get out of their home.”  Some owners can afford their debt service, but seek advice about giving up their property.  Lawyers play an important role in helping owners choose how to free themselves from their “upside down” homes.  People who stop paying their mortgage have the cash flow to pay for a lawyer to advise them on what might be the most important financial decision of their life.  
 
This CLE program is designed to help lawyers better advise property owners on the “letting go” options-foreclosure; deed-in-lieu of foreclosure; and “short sale” or “short payoff”- and compare those options to hanging on to the property.
