A deed in lieu of foreclosure is the process where the homeowner returns the property to the bank in exchange for avoiding a foreclosure judgment on their credit. Similar to the application process in a short sale, a deed in lieu of foreclosure allows a homeowner to dispose of the property and walk away without judgment on their credit. JP Legal LLC’s network of professionals are extremely skilled in negotiating deeds in lieu of foreclosures with the banks.
