Top 5 Foreclosure Myths Every Homeowner Needs to Stop Believing

SCHAUMBURG, Ill. - Aug. 25, 2025 - PRLog -- Foreclosure is one of the most misunderstood financial challenges homeowners face. According to 4Closure Rescue LLC, countless families make avoidable mistakes because they believe outdated or misleading information.

"Homeowners often assume they're out of options when they're not," says David Litt, founder of 4Closure Rescue. "The right knowledge—shared at the right time—can save a home."

Myth #1: Once You Miss Payments, It's Over

Truth: In most states, you have time—and options—to prevent foreclosure if you act quickly.

Myth #2: Lenders Want Your Home

Truth: Foreclosure is costly for banks, too. Most lenders prefer to work with you on solutions.

Myth #3: Help Always Costs Money

Truth: HUD-approved housing counselors offer free, legitimate support and can negotiate directly with your lender.

Myth #4: Foreclosure Destroys Your Credit Forever

Truth: With the right steps, many homeowners rebuild their credit and even buy again within a few years.

Myth #5: There's No Help If You've Already Received a Notice

Truth: Even after receiving a Notice of Default, programs like loan modifications, repayment plans, and state homeowner assistance funds can keep you in your home.

"Foreclosure isn't a one-way street," Litt explains. "But the earlier you act, the more choices you have."
