    A really weird coincidence.....

    I've been spending a lot of time digging through court records and documents studying foreclosures back in NY due to complications in my foreclosure and not wanting to hire an attorney.

    Anyway - today during my research, I came across a foreclosure case that sounded way too familar.

    Turns out in this particular case, the woman filed BK on the SAME day as I did, used the SAME attorney as I did, and was at the SAME 341 as me. Her house is in foreclosure too - her Lender is the SAME lender as mine, and the attorney handling the case for the lender is the SAME attorney that's representing our lender.

    That wasn't all bad enough - I looked up the street address of her home - she lived on the next block over from me.

    Is that too weird or what???

    What are the odds of this particular coincidence happening??? Amazing! The hair on your neck must have been standing up, Betty!

      We got lucky and sold our house. But it was out of State anyway, so that part wouldn't count. And we all used different attnys. BUT,.......... 2 of the people at our 341 filed BK the same day we did. Surrendered their houses in BK. AND, they live within a 1/2 mile of us. One around the corner and a couple of blocks away. The other, across the main road in a different subdivision.

      It is toooooo wierd, Betty!!

      I am not an attorney. My comments are based on personal experience and research. Always consult an attorney in your area to address concerns related to your particular situation.

        Yeah - like something out of the Twilight Zone!

        If I were still living in NY - I'd call her up and take her out to lunch so we could commiserate!

        But, she is 3000 miles away and considering we're talking about NY - she'd probably think I was a nut case

          Another thought - I don't know how long she owned that home, but, she and I could very well have been "neigbors" for 10 years, for all I know.

          We lived in that house 10 years.

          Anyway, back to those court records and more eye strain...........
