For most Americans, their home is their largest asset. It takes years of hard work to pay off and make a home. Sadly, after years of hard work, sometimes Americans don't have all their ducks in a row and they encounter the scare of foreclosure. Negative equity, the passing of a loved one, divorce proceedings, and untimely medical expenses can all contribute to a foreclosure.
Due to recent economic decline within the last decade, many Americans have suffered financially. It is tough to admit, but there has been a lot of turmoil in the mortgage industry as a result of the economy. To many Americans, their home is the centerpiece of their family. It can be frightening to think where your family will end up without your home.

The current total amount of student loan debt in our country has climbed to 1.2 trillion, and the average amount owed is $29,000.

Over the past year, Gil represented us in closing three properties (two sales and one purchase). On all three occasions, Gil handled all aspects of the process professionally and timely.
