Bankruptcy Terms

Today's Terms

Small claims

Claims

Definition:
Rights to repayment made by creditors against a debtor; they may be liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, secured, unsecured, subordinated, legal or equitable.

Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure

Definition:
If you will be unable to cure the default, and a private sale does not appear realistic, VA will consider accepting a deed in lieu of foreclosure. If there are no liens on the property, and VA agrees to accept a deed, you will have to sign legal papers making VA the owner of the property.
