What drives the cost of foreclosure defense in Livonia

  • Fee structure: flat fee for review and negotiation, or hourly for litigation
  • How far along the foreclosure is when you call
  • Whether the servicer is negotiating or litigation is needed
  • Second mortgages, liens or co-owners involved

  • Court costs, separate from attorney fees
  • The age of the home: the typical Livonia home was built around 1964, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Livonia

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Livonia was built around 1964. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

41% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Livonia building department before work starts.
