If you default on the mortgage payments, lenders have the liberty to use your house as collateral for the nonpayment. After 120 days of delinquency, a 90-day pre-foreclosure notice can be sent. Generally, New York requires judicial foreclosures and only allows non-judicial proceedings in specific circumstances.
Once the notice’s 90 days are up, the lender can file the required lawsuit against you to officially begin the foreclosure proceeding. The court has to approve the foreclosure before the lender can sell the house at auction. By receiving court approval, the lenders can mitigate their losses by proceeding to an auction.
If you’re facing foreclosure, there are several options available for you. However, these options have a much higher chance of success with the help of a foreclosure defense attorney.

Loan modifications can allow you some flexibility. Added flexibility means you’ll have a better chance at paying the defaulted mortgage. Lenders will possibly agree to a loan modification that allows your monthly mortgage payment to be lower. By either increasing the years left on your repayment term or lower the interest rates, your monthly payment would be decreased.
This loan modification would be in lieu of foreclosure, giving you the ability to keep your home. Negotiating may seem overwhelming, but this feeling can be eased through a foreclosure defense attorney. NYC is a brutal real estate market. Hiring someone to fight in your corner could be the key to your success.
Again, borrowers have the option of modifying their defaulted mortgages. This can help you pay off the delinquent amount and save your home. You can delay the principal so you can make a balloon payment that’s due on a later date. Lenders may forgive a portion of the delinquent amount — either on conditional or unconditional terms.
Just because the house is foreclosed doesn’t mean you have to move out. The sale date must pass before the eviction process can begin. For the sale date to be finalized, the court must approve the foreclosure and order the auction. Even after the court order, auctioning could go on for months before a sale is made.
Since the eviction process doesn’t start until the above process is completed, you can remain in your home. Until everything is said and done, you can continue staying there.

If the lender didn’t follow the Federal or State laws regarding the foreclosure process, the sale can be set aside. These laws were enacted to protect homeowners from bank lenders. The administration wanted to minimize the risk of banks taking advantage of the everyday person.
That being said, there are numerous places that the lender could have gone wrong. Since the pandemic began, the first place to begin is asking if the COVID-19 moratoriums were followed.
The following defenses are also violations of the law. However, each of these defenses has certain nuances that need to be explained. Read through these explanations and ask for further clarifications during your free consultation.

When you sue someone, you need to have standing. Standing means that Plaintiff has the right to sue this person. The right to sue means:
Varying State and Federal laws may add factors that can affect standing rules. But typically, Plaintiffs in civil cases have to show that the other party caused them some sort of injury. Additionally, the Plaintiffs have to show that this injury can be fixed by the other party’s money.
The lender has the responsibility to show that you owe them money. To prove this in court, the lender has to show the contract and other related paperwork with the promissory note or mortgage. If the lender misplaces these documents, then the lender no longer has standing.
Lender has no ownership rights in the promissory note or mortgage.
