What’s different in Plymouth Meeting

The Act 91 notice starts a clock

Before foreclosing, a Pennsylvania lender sends an Act 91 notice explaining the right to apply for a HEMAP loan that could cover delinquent payments. Homeowners have 33 days from the date of the notice to apply, and the lender cannot take foreclosure action during that period. HEMAP asks that the home be owner-occupied and that you can resume full payments within 24 months. PHFA runs a hotline at 1-855-827-3466. Pennsylvania residents can get free housing counseling through the program.

Montgomery County sheriff sales are online

The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office holds real estate sales as online auctions through Bid4Assets. Auctions open at 1 p.m. on the day of the sale, and the schedule lists no sale in November. Sale dates are posted on the county website, and the Sheriff's Office can be reached at 610-278-3000. Check the date in your own paperwork, since sale dates can change.

A court diversion program may apply

PHFA describes a Residential Mortgage Diversion Program that can stay a foreclosure on an owner-occupied home so the lender and borrower can try to reinstate the loan. Its page does not say which counties take part right now, so ask your attorney or the court whether it is open in Montgomery County. PHFA's number for questions is 1-800-635-4747.

Facing Foreclosure in Plymouth Meeting: questions

Can I sell my Plymouth Meeting house after a foreclosure complaint is filed?

Often yes, as long as you still own it and the sale closes in time. The proceeds must pay off the mortgage and any liens. A foreclosure attorney can tell you how your case schedule affects a sale.

What is HEMAP?

HEMAP is Pennsylvania's Homeowners' Emergency Mortgage Assistance Program. It can provide a loan to bring payments current and help with monthly payments for up to 24 months. You must apply within 33 days of the Act 91 notice, and the home must be owner-occupied.

Will a sheriff sale in Montgomery County be held in person?

Montgomery County runs its sheriff sales as online auctions through Bid4Assets, and auctions open at 1 p.m. on the day of the sale. Bidders register on the platform ahead of time. Confirm your sale date with the Sheriff's Office at 610-278-3000.

Does Kaizen pay off my mortgage?

A cash sale pays off the mortgage and any recorded liens from the sale price at closing, and you receive what is left. Whether there is money left depends on the offer and the payoff. We cannot say before we see the numbers.
