The answer to your question will depend upon a number of variables. My recommendation is that you retain legal counsel to, at the very least, review the matter and give you some guidance from there.
Good luck with your case!

There are limited circumstances under which a plaintiff (typically the borrower) might try to revoke or challenge the validity of a submitted Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure (DIL). Generally, once the lender accepts and files the DIL, revocation is highly unlikely unless a valid legal basis exists.

I'm not sure what your question is... but I'll try to provide some helpful tips.
First, make sure to notify your accountant or payroll service provider of the closing date so they can prepare the final returns. Failure to do so can result in massive fines and large penalties.... View More

There are too many variables for a situation like yours to give you a definitive (and fair) response to your question. But because you raise important points, especially related to how the law in New York has changed regarding statutes of limitation, I highly recommend you speak to a qualified... View More
There are 2 properties where as the original owners have passed away. There is a daughter produced by the deceased couple. The father left a will. i need to find out the status of the estate

Cayuga county NY is the location, I'm an only child so I'm sole heir. I think my mom might have 2 mortgages on the house but I want to find a way to get the house when my mother eventually passes instead of the bank immediately repossessing it.

Your mother's estate will be responsible for the mortgage or, if title passes to you, you may be able to work something out with the bank.

I've received paperwork to my home, but I'm not listed on any deed, I don't own property - I want to make sure I will not be held responsible for my grandmother's estate and the property she owned that is being foreclosed on due to a reverse mortgage.

You are just being named to clear title. You have no personal liability, and if you do not care about the property, do nothing. You will get other papers as the case proceeds.
I may need to sell for less than what the bank has as payoff amount.
answered on Apr 2, 2024
What you want to do is a short sale. The bank needs to approve it. Likely not worth your time or money.
The city has sent me notice to pay 5500 or they will list my home on the foreclosure list

If you've received a notice from the City of Troy regarding foreclosure due to unpaid amounts, it's important to take this seriously.

For example they get evicted in March. The company that controls the mortgage evicts them, cleans up and refurbishes the house for sale. Is it possible for the person who was evicted to make an offer several months later to repurchase the house? Would they have to pay the mortgage payments they... View More

It is possible--once the bank owns the property they would list it for sale and would have the ability to accept/reject offers on the market.
When my mother died in 2019, I unwittingly inherited a $100K Wells Fargo home equity loan from 2011 that it's my understanding was never paid back, either by her or by my late father. She had been claiming to pay off the loan using my SSI funds, and only in 2022 did I find out that was not... View More

While an estate can owe funds for debt of a decedent which can be deducted from the distribution of their assets, you would not be liable on a loan you did not sign (in other words, you cannot “inherit” a loan). You can, however, inherit real estate and that real estate may be encumbered by a... View More

Based upon the facts you've presented, it doesn't sound as if any fraud was committed - though I do sympathize with your frustration.
In just about any case, non-payment of your mortgage is grounds for termination of the Automatic Stay in a Bankruptcy Case. The COVID-19 Hardship... View More

I need to look at the case. It depends how the stip to withdraw was worded. there is caselaw that suggests that since the loan was accelerated, then once the matter is withdrawn or dismissed, he statute of limitation applies.
The Lender brought a prior action on 06/10/2010, according to FAPA the Statute of Limitations began to run as this action was voluntarily dismissed by Lender. This was not dismissed by a Court.
The Lender started a new action with Lis Pendens, Summons & Complaint on 03/30/2011; however,... View More

You indicate that the second case was filed in 2011, but also that a lis pendens was filed in 2016. Was that LP filed in connection with a third case? Statutes of... View More
