If you have taken out a loan to purchase a home or property and you do not make your loan payments, the bank may take your home back. This is called foreclosure. It's best to reach out to your lender before you miss a payment. Many lenders are willing to work with you to keep you in your home when times are tough, so don't bury your head in the sand! For more information on avoiding foreclosure and refinancing, see:
