What’s different in Levittown

Bucks County's Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program

Bucks County tells homeowners to call 866-760-8911 right after receiving a foreclosure notice. The program offers mediation between the homeowner and the lender with a housing counselor involved. The county lists the Credit Counseling Center, which has an office in Levittown, and the Bucks County Housing Group in Warminster. Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania offers free help to qualifying homeowners at 877-429-5994.

Sheriff sales happen in Doylestown

Bucks County holds real estate sheriff sales on the second Friday of each month at 11:00 am at the Administration Building, 55 East Court Street. Each sale is posted on the property and advertised once a week for three weeks. The plaintiff's attorney can postpone a sale for up to 130 days, and further delays need a court order. The Sheriff can be reached at 215-348-6124.

Act 91 and HEMAP deadlines are short

An Act 91 notice gives a homeowner 33 days to apply for HEMAP help, and during that window the lender cannot take foreclosure action. Bucks County describes HEMAP as a loan, not a grant, and requires a meeting with an approved counseling agency within the same 33 days. The property must be owner-occupied, and you must be able to resume full payments within 24 months.

  • Call 866-760-8911 if you have been served with a foreclosure complaint in Bucks County.
  • Meet an approved housing counseling agency within 33 days of the Act 91 notice.
  • Request a payoff figure from the lender.
  • Collect the deed, tax bills and any notices of liens against the house.
  • Call Kaizen at 267-329-0084 to get a cash offer to compare.

How Kaizen can help

Text or call 267-329-0084 with the Levittown address and the sale or hearing date on your notice. We review the house and send a cash offer inside a day, so you can compare it with your payoff before your next deadline.

A sale only helps if it can close in time, and we cannot promise it will fit your calendar. Share the date at the start. If it works, we close in 14 to 30 days or on the date you pick, and you may turn the offer down and stay with your counselor's plan.

Facing Foreclosure in Levittown: questions

Can I stop a Bucks County sheriff sale?

A sale stops or is postponed when the plaintiff's attorney sends a letter to the Sheriff, and delays beyond 130 days need a court order. A homeowner can also sell the house before the sale date if the sale closes in time. Ask a foreclosure attorney about your case.

Who can help me for free in Bucks County?

Bucks County lists housing counseling agencies in its housing guide, including offices in Levittown and Warminster. Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania offers free legal help to qualifying homeowners at 877-429-5994. Start with the diversion program number, 866-760-8911.

What happens to my equity if I sell?

The sale price first pays the mortgage and any recorded liens, and you receive what is left. Kaizen cannot say what that will be until we see the payoff. We give a cash offer within 24 hours so you can check the math.

How will I know a Bucks County sheriff sale is coming?

The Sheriff posts a handbill on the property and the sale is advertised once a week for three consecutive weeks in the Bucks County Law Reporter and a local newspaper. Properties sell as is, with no inspections allowed. Check your own paperwork and the county's sale list too.
