Product Description

Massachusetts Mortgages, Foreclosures, and Workouts provides a comprehensive, practical, and up-to-date guide to the mortgage and foreclosure issues facing Massachusetts attorneys today. This essential publication introduces the law governing mortgages and foreclosures; sets forth step-by-step guidance on the procedures required to prepare for and conduct a foreclosure (as well as the legal and insurance issues likely to arise in the process); describes the use of foreclosures in particular areas of practice, including commercial leasing and condominiums; highlights the implications of federal liens, FDIC involvement, and bankruptcy law; and reviews the use of workout agreements and other alternatives to foreclosure.

  Dear Subscriber:
  
  Thank you for choosing to keep current in the area of Massachusetts Mortgages, Foreclosures, and Workouts with this 2024 edition. Inside, you will find new material on topics such as:
  - Foreclosures where the title holder is deceased. See Chapter 5 for a practical discussion of this situation, such as whom defendants need to include in a Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) action. Also find discussion of particular requirements relative to titles in Land Court.
  - Nontax federal liens. See Chapter 5 for discussion of the situation where a nontax federal lien is junior to the foreclosed mortgage, and the rights of redemption held where a sale of real estate is made to satisfy a lien prior to that held by the United States.
  - Power of sale. Chapter 5 also discusses instances where the power of sale is included or not included in the mortgage, and the impact of not including mention of the statutory power of sale in the mortgage document.
  - Condominium liens. See Chapter 8 for discussion of the attorney's duties when representing an association in connection with claims for unpaid common expense assessments, and whether that makes the attorney a "debt collector" under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
  - Superlien provisions. Chapter 8 also discusses the impact of amendments to G.L. c. 183A, § 6(c) with regard to an association's notice requirements.
  - Equity of redemption in mortgage foreclosure auction. See Chapter 10 for citation of a 2024 case holding that a mortgagor's equity of redemption extinguishes upon the execution of a memorandum of sale at the conclusion of a foreclosure auction sale in Massachusetts.
  We at MCLE trust that you will find this new material useful in your law practice and valuable in keeping your law library current.
  
  Cordially,
