It is possible to stall foreclosure for up to two years using bankruptcy and a variety of other tactics. Getting what is called a Stay is a process of fighting back against the bank, and fighting for your right to stay in your home. Stalling foreclosure is not the simplest process but it can be done, and should be done if you are upside down in your mortgage, and thinking of filing bankruptcy. I have been going through foreclosure, and besides using an attorney, I found this book pretty helpful called the Stall Foreclosures E-Book. You can get this book, and read through it before you start the process to sort of give you a background on how to manage to stall foreclosure and stay in your home while fighting back. It is at www.StallForeclosures.com
