The family residence is more than just a valuable asset; it is where you raise your family, experience many cherished life experiences and the source of your family’s safety and security – in short it is home. When the safety and security of your family home is threatened by creditors, it can be an extremely stressful and anxious time. During tough economic times, many people that never expected to be in such a situation face the loss of their family home.
The burst of the housing bubble, escalating variable home interest rates and the collapse of the stock market, which ravaged many people’s retirement accounts created a “perfect storm” of negative economic factors. The thought of losing one’s home can be a devastating prospect, especially for families that have been paying on their family home for many years only to suddenly find that their home has negative equity and the payment has risen beyond their ability to pay.
