If You Are Facing Foreclosure, Help is Available

A free seminar where people facing foreclosure can receive help is being held Saturday.

The mortgage crisis has hit Los Angeles County harder than most areas of the country, with 80,803 homes currently in foreclosure, and 1 out of every 241 homes predicted to face foreclosure in the months ahead. But there are steps people can take to protect themselves and their property in this turbulent time.

If you are worried about foreclosure, there is a free event happening this Saturday where you can receive some counsel on how to proceed. Here are the details.
