Be careful of people who approach you with offers to "save" your home. There are
individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a
homeowner s distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and
any
suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires
anyone
offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the service
they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any
money from you until they have completed an such promised services.
