Sure. I assume that the foreclosure sale hasn’t taken place yet. The first way to avoid a foreclosure is to talk to the bank. Most banks don’t want to foreclose, and will negotiate a forbearance or a new payment schedule if it is halfway reasonable and if they think you are willing and able to perform. Call the bank and offer to negotiate. Second, some states (e.g., California) have rules that allow you to cancel the foreclosure sale and reinstate the loan if you cure the default and pay the lender’s expenses at some time prior to the scheduled foreclosure sale. You did not say where you live, so I don’t know whether you live in a jurisdiction that has reinstatement rules. Call a lawyer on this one. Third, all states will cancel the foreclosure sale if you pay off the loan before the sale. This option is often unavailable, since you would not have defaulted if you had that kind of credit. I strongly recommend option #1.

You may be able to delay by asking for them to produce the note. But the only way to stop a foreclosure is to bring the note current or to work out something with your mortgage lender.
Here’s a link on how to request the lender to produce the note: http://www.consumerwarningnetwork.com/20…

My mom and my step dad have declared bankruptcy one or two times in the last 10 years. My older brother now lives with them because his health hasn’t been so great for some time. Needless to say their credit isn’t so good after filing for bankruptcys. Now I hear the bank has gone to foreclose their home and they say to us, their adult children that they have their lawyer working on it but don’t tell us much else. My parents havent made such great choices about their money in the past so we are pretty skeptical. Not only that a majior reason why they are in this finacial hell is because my step dad fell for an internet e-mail scam. I and my brother am trying to help them as much as we can with our own practical smarts but they haven’t told us any details so far. From what we gather my parents could be housless come Febuary. What can be done to help them legally and, or what would you do about all this?

Your question makes no sense.
Your lenders lawyer represents the lender, not you.
