Greenburgh Property Tax and Mortgage Counseling Event on July 15
The town of Greenburgh is in the process of foreclosing on properties that are behind on their property taxes. Many homeowners don’t understand that property tax foreclosure puts them in jeopardy of losing their homes, and the entire equity in their homes as well – even if they owe only a small amount. Additionally, many homeowners are not getting all the property tax exemptions they are entitled to, and are therefore paying more than they need to in taxes.
Founded in 1968, Westchester Residential Opportunities, Inc. (WRO) is a HUD certified not-for-profit housing agency. WRO has thousands of Westchester homes from tax and mortgage foreclosure, enabling homeowners to remain in their homes, or to protect their equity by selling and transitioning to other housing.
WRO is the only agency in Westchester that does both free property tax foreclosure and mortgage foreclosure counseling. WRO counselors utilize all the tools at their disposal to resolve foreclosure, including modifications, repayment plans, short sales, reverse mortgages, bankruptcy, sales of the homes, and negotiating with lenders or municipalities on behalf of homeowners.
In addition, WRO counselors help homeowners identify tax exemptions for which homeowners are eligible but may not be claiming. This often results in significant savings.
If you or any Westchester resident you know is having a hard time paying their property taxes or their mortgage, or if you have questions about property tax exemptions, please come to Greenburgh Town Hall on Tuesday, July 15 from 6-7:30 pm for WRO’s free workshop. Questions? Contact Jane Lindau at 914 428-4507 ext. 313 or jlindau@wroinc.org.
