Made last full mortgage payment: 11/30/2009

We are now interviewing attorneys and will respond within the allowable 20 calendar days.
Servicer was Chase and is now IBM LBPS. Fannie Mae supposedly holds the note.
Seems like we are not alone in the endless waiting.

There is no way to tell what they want to do. Some foreclosures have stalled for 4-6 years. Your stalled foreclosure, of 9 years, is atypical but I would expect there to be some that have gone on for almost a decade.
Keep us up to date. This is interesting!

Quick update here, and a question if anyone can answer:
We filed as of the date in my sig and the house has been supposedly in the foreclosure process for almost 9 years.
It is not in great shape, but the market has rebounded.
Current market value, as per my wife (a very experienced Realtor) is around 350-370k. The original mortgage was 320k with a 60k second.
She is considering placing the home for sale under her realty license for market value. At the least, she would make a commission of 3-7% depending on the sale agreement.
We received a tax cancellation notice for the IRS a few years back on the 2nd mortgage. Are we, therefore, free of that debt? If so, there could be a bit of equity in the house, depending on how many fees the bank has racked up legally.
Finally, a search of local court activity shows that the bank (Ocwen) has dropped all foreclosure filings and abandoned the legal process for now. There is nothing on the docket regarding foreclosure, except all the old filings by BoA from years ago, which have been dismissed due to failure to proceed on their part.
Thoughts?
Thanks, and best wishes to everyone harboring one of these zombies.

Why wouldn't property taxes follow the same guideline?
In a property tax case, you would never personally be sued; the property is subject to foreclosure. In an HOA dues case, not only can the HOA foreclose, they could chose to just personally sue you for the amount.

JB,
I fully agree with keeping up the homeowners insurance policy.
I don't want to stir the pot on HOA fees issues, but doesn't property taxes have the same weight as HOA fees?

I would personally maintain insurance.

deadman, that's interesting about your area in florida, here in lake county our home has gone up over 60k in value since we purchased it. our neighbor where some homes were selling (that were completely trashed) went as low as 70k!! but they needed new kitchens and bathroom and so much work at least another 50-70k just to make them liveable. when these houses were new went for approx 300k ( WAY over priced as they were built at the "boom" time period). now homes here are selling for 140-169k.
we rented when we first got to florida but it was no problem since we hadn't filed as yet. i know the foreclosure process in our area is still really really slow. i know here in our area Justpoor that renting is wide open since there are so many vacant places. even with a bk, money talks. when we brought this house it was a lease option to buy, owner financing. i exercised the option early, offered the owner more than asking price and gave him a large down payment. we never went through the bank. we see renting specials offered all over the central florida area.
also, remember florida is a judicial state. it MUST go through the process that usually takes at least 3 years, maybe some banks are moving quicker nowadays, but i doubt that since everything has to go via the court system and they are still fairly packed. places like calif, az, nv, it could be 90 days that you are out. but here in florida along with a few other states (i think approx 13 others) must go through this legal red tape, it's the law.

We're still with you, gail. We crossed the 8 year mark a few months ago.
Still getting offers to mod our loan, from the new mortgage holder Ocwen.
Seems it will never end. House is completely trashed. Not by vandals or anything malicious. From the street is still looks stunningly beautiful. Inside is a cess pit of mold, rainwater, insects, dead mice and rats, and other things not worth trying to identify. This house will never be livable again, IMHO. The sheer amount of dollars to completely gut it and start over would be just silly.
Onward we go. For another eight years? Who knows . . .

Just a quick update, Our forclosure did not go thru at the last minute it shows cancelled Nov 13, We also got letter from Green tree, saying they bought the mortgage from Bank of America. We are disappointed as we moved in July in hopes it would go thru. So the house sits empty. Now Green tree is sending collection notices, Unbelievable. We stopped paying May 2010, and finally moved July 2013. We thought for sure it would be done.
