This glossary explains common terms used in foreclosure defense and real estate litigation to help you understand your options.
A legal process by which a lender may recover a mortgage loan by forcing the sale of the property after a borrower misses payments or breaches the loan terms.
A change to the original loan terms (such as interest rate, payment amount, or term length) to make repayment more manageable and avoid foreclosure.
