Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Maine

Re: real estate

Disability insurance or mortgage insurance are the 2 most likely sources of help in such a situation, but are also not commonly obtained by a borrower. There is no Federal or Maine statute designed to provide actual "protection" as such when you go into foreclosure, even if for legitimate medical hardship reasons.

There are resources available such as Consumer Credit Counseling which may be able to work with your creditor. You may also consider filing for personal bankruptcy to clear away unsecured debt and get a "fresh start". This option would temporarily stop a foreclosure.
