As homeowners struggle to keep up with their mortgages and pay their assessments, associations too have been backed into a financial corner. Squeezed by increasing costs and delinquencies, more associations are finding it necessary to take legal action to remain financially viable. While most associations only pursue foreclosure as a last resort, an increasing number of associations have reached that point. Angry, surprised and sometimes rightfully suspicious, homeowners are pushing back and filing legal actions of their own against associations and management companies for what they believe are wrongful foreclosure actions.
What you will learn:
- Clerical mistakes made by managers and management company staff that lead to wrongful foreclosure lawsuits
- Various considerations prior to initiating a foreclosure
- The consequences for an association of taking ownership of a property through foreclosure
- The role of the association attorney in foreclosing on a home or unit
In this webinar you will learn about how wrongful foreclosures occur and what an association and manager can do to avoid them in the first place.
