When the real estate market was on the rise, many investors and homeowners were falsely led to believe that home values would continue increasing. Understandably, many homeowners and investors began borrowing heavily against their equity to finance property acquisitions and other expenses. The decline of the real estate market has left many homeowners and investors underwater.

Offering Lien Stripping Services to Preserve Real Estate Investments
Ideally, homeowners would like to maintain their real estate property and sell their investments once the housing market increases in value. This can be particularly challenging for homeowners who owe more money than what their property is worth.
Before you consider selling your property through a short sale or entering into foreclosure proceedings, entrust our law firm for experienced advocacy and legal counsel. Our law firm's debt relief attorney is available to evaluate your situation to determine if lien stripping would help you avoid a foreclosure and save your property.
Through lien stripping, we can help you eliminate a second or third mortgage mortgage in excess of the property's current market value. We can also help you get rid of judgment liens and tax liens. We will work with an appraiser to show that the value of your home is less than the balance on your first mortgage. Any junior mortgages and judgments or tax liens can be stripped away and made to be unsecured debt, since there would be no property or home equity to secure it. At Mark M. Kratter, LLC, we will guide you through this process as part of the Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceedings.
