Foreclosure Seminars - November & December

Real Property and Housing Matters:
The SLP provides representation in cases were the individual risks losing their subsidized housing and where fair housing rights are being affected. The SLP provides representation in certain landlord/tenant disputes including evictions and provides advice concerning most landlord tenant issues. We can also assist in preparing documents such as Homestead Declarations, Affidavits of Death of a Joint Tenant, and mobile home title transfers.

In addition to its legal services, the Senior Law Project provides Housing Counseling Services as a Certified HUD Housing Counseling Agency. Such Housing Counseling Service allows the Senior Law Project to assist persons in a number of areas related to their housing needs such as:

1. Counseling on the pros and cons of a reverse mortgage, and certifies people for the HUD insured reverse mortgage product known as Home Equity Conversion Mortgage.
2. Assists individuals to forestall mortgage foreclosures, including the potential to restructure their mortgage.
3. Assists persons to be able to better retain rental housing by coordinating needed services and debt management.
4. Assists persons to develop subsidized housing options.
