Preliminary Hearing

Another tip from your Seminole County Foreclosure and Seminole County short sale realtor. Seminole County homeowners, if you served an Answer in your Seminole County foreclosure lawsuit, a hearing date will be set. You can present your case to the judge at the hearing and the judge will decide what to do next. If you have a valid answer or defense to the foreclosure lawsuit, (FOR EXAMPLE, THE LENDER DOES NOT HAVE THE NOTE) the judge may require the lender to give you a reasonable amount of time to work things out. If your only defense to the foreclosure is you just haven’t made your payments, the judge will likely rule in favor of the lender and the foreclosure will go forward.
