Connect With Trusted Housing Counselors & Learn How to Navigate Foreclosure With Confidence
If you’re behind on your mortgage, overwhelmed by paperwork, or unsure what your rights are, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
At Foreclosure Focus, we connect homeowners and families with HUD-approved housing counselors, nonprofit advocates, and financial education resources that can help you understand your situation and explore real solutions — often for free.
What Is a Housing Counselor?
A housing counselor is a trained and certified professional who helps homeowners:
- Understand the foreclosure process in their state
- Explore alternatives like loan modification, forbearance, or refinancing
- Create budget and repayment plans
- Apply for state or federal assistance programs
- Avoid scams and unethical “rescue” services
Many counselors are approved by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) and offer free or low-cost support.
