Last summer, Ingham County Register of Deeds Curtis Hertel Jr. threw his support behind a proposal to reform Michigan’s foreclosure practices. The measure is an effort to join 23 other states by enacting “judicial” foreclosure in Michigan.
Under the approach, a judge is assigned to personally review the details of all home foreclosures. Advocates say that exposes an often bewildering process to more scrutiny and reduces cases of wrongful foreclosure.
A year later–with dozens of dubious foreclosures fresh in his mind– Hertel and others are frustrated that the bill sits in committee, apparently going nowhere.
Four years after the housing crisis, Ingham County still records about 1500 home foreclosures a year. A Meridian Township woman we’ll just call Patty–at her request–says it’s a jarring experience.
