A foreclosure notice is not the end. It's a deadline. In Illinois, you typically have months before the auction. Acting now gives you real choices: a fast investor sale, an MLS listing, or a negotiated short sale. Let's talk before the window closes.
Every homeowner who calls us says the same thing: they wish they'd called sooner. Whatever you're facing, HAP has helped families through it, right here in Chicago.
I was facing foreclosure and didn't know where to turn. The team at HAP not only connected me with an investor who made a fair offer, but brought in repair specialists who increased the home's value before the sale. I walked away with far more than I expected.

Yes, and the sooner you act, the more options you have. Receiving a Notice of Default does not mean you've lost your home. You typically have several months before any auction occurs. Selling during this window can stop the foreclosure process, protect your credit, and preserve your equity.
In most cases, yes. If you sell before the auction, the proceeds pay your lender and the foreclosure action is resolved. This typically causes significantly less credit damage than a completed foreclosure. We coordinate directly with your lender on the timeline.
A short sale may be the right path. We negotiate with your lender to accept less than the full balance. Many lenders will waive the remaining deficiency as part of the short sale approval. We walk you through every scenario.
