Introduction: In today’s challenging financial climate, receiving an application to force the sale of your home can be incredibly distressing. If you’re facing such a situation, it’s essential to understand your rights and explore all possible options to protect your home. At The Fullman Firm, we are experienced at fighting against the sale of dwellings, and we are here to help you navigate this complex process.
Understanding the Application for Sale of Dwelling: An application for the sale of a dwelling is a legal process where a judgment creditor seeks a court order to sell your property to recover on an outstanding court judgment. This can happen if you’ve defaulted on a loan or mortgage, and the creditor believes selling your home is the best way to recoup their money.
Common Reasons for Application for Sale of Dwelling:
- Mortgage Default: Failure to keep up with mortgage payments can lead to an application for the sale of your home.
- Unpaid Debts: If you have significant outstanding debts and the creditor has obtained a judgment, they may pursue a sale of your property.
- Court Orders: In some cases, creditors may obtain a court order to enforce the sale of your home as part of debt recovery efforts.
How To Stop the Sale of Your Dwelling:
- Negotiate with Creditors: Engage with your creditors to discuss possible repayment plans or settlements to avoid forced sale.
- File an Opposition: If you’ve received an application for the sale of your dwelling, you can and should file an opposition to contest the sale in court.
