New Changes to Michigan Foreclosure Law


Foster Swift Banking, Finance & Real Estate E-News
August 12, 2013

A series of house and senate bills that amend Michigan's foreclosure law were signed into law on July 31st, 2013. The current foreclosure law expired on June 30th, and the new bill package is designed to extend the current sunset date in addition to making a few key changes.

Under HB 4765 (now PA 105'13), the expiration date of the current foreclosure law is extended from June 30th to January 9, 2014. Beginning January 10, the changes to the law take effect. The first change is a repeal of sections 3205a to 3205d, the provisions pertaining to notice, face-to-face meetings with the lender, and offers to modify the loan. Lenders seeking to avail themselves of these provisions must provide the notice required under section 3208 by January 9, 2014. Sections 3205a to 3205d will be repealed entirely on June 30, 2014.

Lots of homes are being sold with little or no notice, and judges are going along with it.

Major theft, if you asked me.
