Legal Disclaimer

The information, materials, resources, forms, and services made available through Home Advocates Foundation (“HAF,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) are provided for general educational, charitable, informational, and advocacy-support purposes only.

HAF is committed to helping families affected by foreclosure, mortgage hardship, displacement, and housing instability. However, use of this website, submission of a form, communication with HAF, participation in an HAF program, or receipt of information from HAF does not create an attorney-client, financial-advisor, housing-counselor, lender-borrower, fiduciary, or other professional-client relationship.
 

No Legal Advice or Legal Representation

HAF is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, legal representation, or legal opinions. HAF does not represent homeowners in court, bankruptcy proceedings, foreclosure actions, eviction matters, title disputes, mortgage-servicing disputes, or consumer-finance matters unless a separate written agreement expressly states otherwise.
 

Information provided by HAF should not be relied upon as a substitute for advice from a qualified attorney, HUD-approved housing counselor, licensed financial professional, tax advisor, or other appropriate professional.
 

Homeowners facing a foreclosure complaint, sheriff’s sale, bankruptcy deadline, eviction, court hearing, or other urgent legal matter should promptly consult a qualified attorney or housing counselor.
 

No Guarantee of Results

HAF cannot and does not guarantee any outcome relating to a mortgage modification, foreclosure, legal dispute, housing request, financial hardship, loan-servicing issue, property acquisition, rental opportunity, lease-to-own arrangement, repurchase opportunity, donation request, or referral.
 

Each situation is different. Decisions regarding mortgage modifications, loan workouts, foreclosure activity, financing, property transactions, rental arrangements, legal claims, and other matters are made by the applicable lender, mortgage servicer, investor, insurer, court, government agency, property owner, attorney, or other responsible party.
 

Mortgage Modification and Foreclosure Assistance

HAF may provide free educational, administrative, and advocacy-oriented support to homeowners seeking mortgage-modification or loss-mitigation assistance. This support may include helping homeowners understand the process, organize documents, prepare information for submission, track communications, and identify questions to raise with a lender or servicer.
 

HAF is not a lender, mortgage servicer, debt-settlement company, credit-repair company, or government agency. HAF cannot require a lender or servicer to approve a modification, stop foreclosure activity, reduce a loan balance, waive fees, accept documents, or offer a particular resolution.
 

Homeowners remain responsible for reviewing all documents, responding to deadlines, making all financial and legal decisions, and obtaining independent professional advice when appropriate.
 

Homeowner Legal Defense Fund

The Homeowner Legal Defense Fund may support mission-aligned homeowner-protection efforts, education, referrals, legal-resource access, public-interest initiatives, and other charitable activities, subject to available funding, eligibility standards, HAF policies, and applicable law.
 

HAF does not guarantee that the Fund will pay legal fees, locate an attorney, fund a specific matter, stop a foreclosure, prevent a sale, or produce any particular legal outcome. Any legal services must be provided directly by a properly licensed attorney or legal-service organization under a separate arrangement.
 

Housing Assistance and Property Programs

HAF may pursue housing acquisition, rehabilitation, affordable-rental, lease-to-own, homeownership-restoration, or future-repurchase opportunities when consistent with its charitable mission and subject to available funding, property availability, title review, inspection results, legal requirements, program capacity, and separate written agreements.
 

HAF cannot guarantee that it will acquire a particular property, provide financial assistance, offer housing, approve a rental arrangement, rehabilitate a home, or make a future purchase or repurchase opportunity available.
 

Any housing, rental, lease-to-own, acquisition, rehabilitation, sale, or repurchase arrangement will be governed by separate written agreements and applicable law.
 

Third-Party Resources and Referrals

HAF may provide links, referrals, or contact information for attorneys, housing counselors, lenders, servicers, contractors, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and other third parties. These resources are provided for convenience and informational purposes only.
 

HAF does not control, endorse, guarantee, or accept responsibility for the advice, services, availability, qualifications, conduct, privacy practices, fees, or outcomes of any third party. You are responsible for evaluating whether a third party is appropriate for your needs.
 

Website Information

HAF seeks to keep the information on this website accurate and useful, but does not guarantee that all information is complete, current, error-free, or applicable to every situation. Laws, regulations, loan-servicing requirements, court procedures, government programs, and housing resources may change without notice.
 

HAF may update, revise, suspend, or remove website content, forms, programs, or services at any time without prior notice.
 

No Emergency Services

HAF does not provide emergency housing, crisis intervention, legal-emergency, or emergency financial services through this website. If you are facing immediate danger, homelessness, eviction, a pending sheriff’s sale, or another urgent emergency, contact local emergency services, a qualified attorney, a HUD-approved housing counselor, or an appropriate government or community-resource agency without delay.
 

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, HAF, its trustees, officers, employees, volunteers, contractors, partners, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or other damages arising from or related to your use of this website, reliance on website content, participation in an HAF program, inability to access services, communications with HAF, or actions taken or not taken based on information provided by HAF.
