CAUTION:
I’ve always heard the same thing until today, when I talked to a law firm who is actually involved with SS on a daily basis. They informed me of this:
It is illegal to transfer a deed into a trust if a property is IN foreclosure for more than 3 mos.
It is ONLY legal to transfer a deed into a trust to do a SS in Fla and ILL
I am not a lawyer, but this is just a word of caution. I am still looking into this.
When you say foreclosure are you talking about after the bank has filed the papers with the court and the date has been set or when the owner initially defaulted on their loan. Please be precise?
