A WORD ABOUT MICHIGAN MORTGAGE DISPUTES:
COMMON PROBLEMS WHEN FACING FORECLOSURE
These concerns and more are addressed in Soble’s many articles, books, videos and video broadcasts. Check them out.
COMMON MORTGAGE ISSUES
A mortgage is a legal agreement by which a bank or other creditor lends money at interest in exchange for taking a lien on the debtor’s property, with the condition that the mortgage is cancelled upon the loan being paid off by the debtor. Mortgages are taken by banks, lenders or creditors, on all types of Michigan properties: rural, residential, commercial and industrial.
Mortgages are secured by a promissory note requiring the debtor to make timely payments to the lender. Failing to pay timely or to comply with other mortgage provisions such as maintaining insurance or paying property taxes will allow a lender to place a mortgage in default. The most powerful remedey that a lender has as a remedy to obtain it’s monies back from the debtor is to declare a default and foreclosure on the mortgage. Michigan foreclosures are either done judicially or by advertisement.
Common problems that create mortgages disputes are:
- The mortgage loan is sold and the new lender may not properly abide by the terms of the original mortgage;
- Tax or insurance escrows are miscalculated by the lender, increasing the debtor’s payment unexpectedly, thereby creating a debtor’s financial distress.
- A change in the debtor’s financial circumstances occurs and the lender refuses to work with the debtor to modify or temporarily adjust payments.
How Are You Affected?
Mortgage contracts contain numerous provisions that regulate the debtor- lender relationship. Debtors, who are often homeowners, investors, and business owners, are often not aware of these provisions until it is too late, when their lender places their loan in default. While there are federal laws that highly regulate the mortgage business, states such as Michigan afford debtors specific legal rights to protect them against unscrupulous lenders and defend against unwarrented foreclosures. As a result, one’s rights under a mortgage can be difficult to understand. Debtors must be very careful on how they interact with their lender, bank or creditor so as not to waive their legal rights.
How Can We Help
Mortgages are legally binding agreements and have a complicated and lengthy legal history. Whether you are a homeowner or business owner, it is always best to have an attorney review your loan agreements BEFORE you sign your mortgage. The mortgage relationship is a long term one and it is in one’s best interest that when you buy or refinance a property, that you involve a real estate attorney like David Soble to help you navigate through the federal and state laws governing mortgages. This can help prevent later mortgage disputes that may occur at a later date, and avoid the stress of a foreclosure action.
Remember, the expense to clean up a mess is far greater than the expense of having it done right in the first place.

I was treated with respect and kindness.
David successfully negotiated a deal that exceeded my expectations. “
I was in the midst of a legal storm, one that involved divorce, foreclosure and zombie debt from the 2008 crash. My real estate issue was difficult because I was dealing with a banker who was avoiding communication with me. I was quickly facing foreclosure and getting nowhere fast.
I had poor experiences while searching for legal representation. So when I made the appointment to meet with Mr. Soble I was not expecting anything like what I was greeted by.
David was a positive, pleasant and caring man. He sat and listened to my concerns. He asked questions and also provided very sound advice. I could tell he was very knowledgeable in real estate law. He had assisted many other clients like myself who were facing this mortgage crisis. The very first meeting David proposed a plan of action. Within days of our meeting David was already contacting the mortgage lender setting the wheels in motion.
During the entire legal process I was kept informed of every move. David (or his fantastic office assistant, Nancy) would return my phone calls that very day. I was never kept in the dark. I was treated with respect and kindness. David successfully negotiated a deal that exceeded my expectations.
I would recommend David Soble to friends and family for real estate, estate planning or financial debt issues without hesitation!
