Q: Hi I just discovered a foreclosure on my credit. I never foreclosed in my life. I had a friend run a check and I do
My ex wife doesn't have a foreclose on her record but I do and according to the background check she and I were not divorced when the foreclosure took place. She did something but I'm not savvy enough to figure it out. I know the attorneys info and everything from the check. I can't get credit etc due to this and what can I do?
Is what my ex did normal in a divorce or whatever?
A: I’m sorry to hear this has happened to you. If you have not been a part of a foreclosure you should contact the reporting credit agency and dispute that being on your credit report. They should take steps to investigate the accusation and you can go from there, depending on what their findings are. -Homer P. Jordan IV, Esq. 404-620-1558
