Is there any way to make the bank foreclose on the house

Question

My mom owns has a house that she has not made payment on in over a year, she moved out of the house over 9 months ago but the bank won’t take the house.

Answer 1

So: What's the issue? At some point the bank will foreclose. But, no, there's no way to "make" the bank foreclose. It's a business decision on the bank's part. It's out of your mom's hands. She defaulted, and she's abandoned the property. She might contact the bank and see if it'll accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. But it's the bank's decision and your mom has very little leverage in the situation.

Answer 2

I don't buy or sell houses, but common sense tells me

that once she has abandoned the property , she cannot

have any say in what or when or how , that may occur

to her X property.

Your only other avenue is to find out from one of those

lawyers that let you have a free fist session to see if you

have a case of any kind.   Okay, i hope i was of some help.

Answer 3

Is it in the way? Where do you want the bank to take it to?

Answer 4

Call and ask if she can sign the deed to them today.  You are right to be worried. If the house gets vandalized today, your mom is liable for the damages. /
