10 Mistakes That Cost You Thousands When Selling a House in Foreclosure
(And How to Avoid Every One of Them)
If you’re thinking about selling your house, and you’re already behind on mortgage payments, listen carefully:
You’re not just selling a home.
You’re fighting the clock, protecting your equity, and trying to stay one step ahead of the bank.
The stakes are higher.
And even one wrong move could cost you thousands of dollars, money you could’ve used to start over, pay down debt, or relocate with dignity.
In this blog, I’m not going to reveal everything.
Why?
Because what you really need is to see how these mistakes show up in real life, and how to avoid them.
That’s exactly what I break down in my YouTube video:
“10 Mistakes That Cost You Thousands When Selling a House in Foreclosure.”

But let me give you a taste…
Why Selling in Foreclosure Is So Different
When you’re in pre-foreclosure or active foreclosure, you don’t have the same luxury of time or leverage as a traditional home sale.
The bank is watching.
Buyers are circling.
And every delay means more fees, more penalties, and less control.
Most sellers in foreclosure make at least one of these 10 mistakes, and most don’t realize it until it’s too late.
What You’ll Learn in the Video
Here’s a preview of what we cover in the full YouTube video:
- The #1 pricing mistake that makes buyers run the other way
- How letting your emotions lead the sale could cost you tens of thousands
- Why some homes never sell, and what to do if yours is one of them
- The hidden way banks eat up your equity without you noticing
- What “as-is” really means (and when it works against you)
- Why your agent’s strategy matters more than ever in foreclosure
- And how one homeowner left over $40,000 on the table by waiting too long
And yes, I’ve seen all of this happen in New York and New Jersey.
Don’t Let the Bank Win
Selling in foreclosure isn’t just about getting out, it’s about getting out smart.
This might be your last chance to keep control of the outcome.
To decide what your next chapter looks like, instead of letting the lender decide for you.
