Widespread Properties will provide information on what foreclosures

So what exactly are foreclosures? A foreclosure is a situation in which the owner of a property has stopped making payments on it and has instead abandoned the place or deeded it back to the bank. There are a number of reasons for someone to do this—for example, they may have been laid off from their job, become overwhelmed with debt or other financial obligations, had a falling out with the co-owner, etc. If you are facing the possibility of foreclosure, the word likely carries a frightening connotation, but there may be other avenues to pursue that will allow you to remain in your home.
