What happens during foreclosure? What do homeowners need to know? What rights do homeowners and renters have? What assistance is available?

These and other questions will be answered at a series of free mortgage foreclosure information workshops presented in a collaborative effort between the Taxpayer Services Department and the Minnesota Home Ownership Center – a counseling agency that provides foreclosure prevention education and outreach and pre-purchase information for homeowners.

The workshops are for homeowners who are worried about making upcoming mortgage payments, are already behind on payments, or just want to learn more about foreclosure; and for renters whose landlords may be facing foreclosure. Participants can ask questions and get free, confidential advice from foreclosure counselors.
