Mortgage, foreclosure, probate, tax, and real-estate rules change, and the correct answer depends on the property and documents involved. We have temporarily withdrawn the earlier version of this article while Roger checks it against current primary sources.

For current general information, visit the reviewed homeowner guides. For advice about a legal deadline or court case, contact the appropriate licensed attorney, your mortgage servicer, or a HUD-approved housing counselor.
