While overall foreclosure activity has declined nationwide, Florida has seen a steady annual increase for eight-consecutive months (one in every 1,415 housing units), according to ATTOM Data Solutions’ US Foreclosure Market Report. Major metros in Florida in which foreclosure activities increased from last year included Orlando, Fla. (up 90%) and Miami, Fla. (up 45%).
Receiving a notice of delinquency in the mail does not automatically mean that you are going to lose your home. Florida has what is called a judicial foreclosure process, which means that every homeowner is entitled to a hearing before the court to determine whether or not the bank is entitled to foreclose. The most important thing to remember is that the homeowner has rights. There are things you can do to slow down the foreclosure process and even keep your home, while getting your financial life back on track.
