Deficiencies from Home Foreclosure or Car Repossession in St. Louis

Only $675 for a St. Louis Chapter 7

When a home is foreclosed on, or when a car is repossessed, the result is almost always the same: a deficiency debt is created. Adeficiency is the balance of the loan that is still owed after the asset hasbeen sold. But filing a St. Louis bankruptcy will take care of this debt once and for all.

We Get Rid of all Debt From a Foreclosure or Repo

For instance, if your car has been repo’ed, the lot will hold theautomobile for a short period of time before selling it. But the amountthat is received at the sale is usually far less than what is still owed on theloan. So if you still had a balance of $10,000 when the car wasrepossessed, but the lot was only able to sell it at auction for $4,000, thatmeans that there is an unpaid balance of $6,000 that is still owed. This$6,000 is described as the ‘deficiency’ (i.e. the difference between what isowed and what the car actually sold for). And the car company will demandthat you pay for this deficient amount, perhaps even filing suit against you in order to get it.

Many people are surprised that the creditor will come after an individual for such a deficiency, but rest assured, they will. This same scenario applies to homes that are foreclosed on, and rental leases that are broken before the end of their terms.

I've used this firm twice, both for speeding tickets. Both times it was zero hassle: just a matter of giving them the ticket. I've also recommended them to my friends, who have had the same experience. (My friends and I speed a lot.) Highly recommended. I'm sure I'll be back. David Rieken
