mobile home reposession laws?
hi, I have a question and I know this is a small amount but right now it is very large to me, cannot get a personal loan to cover balance and no family to borrow from.. thanks for any ideas or help you might give.
we owe approx $1000.00
on our 96 mobile home it values at $6,000.00. We have been sent a right to cure default by greentree and I contacted the company to see what we could do to make payment arrangements. I called in June and was verbally abused on the phone for over an hour. I tried to be nice and work out something I set up 3 payment arrangements and now have only August 5 payment due. Before we hung up he told me to call in and arrange for the August payment later. I called to see if I could move the 3rd payment (set up through checking) from 8-31-09 because we had unforseen child's medical bill to move to 9-3-09. This guy I have only talked to one time, goes off and screams and yells and says "what u shoiuld have done is leave me alone so now you can pay me 2 payments 600.00 today!!!!!" he says I remamber you now, do I need to call your husband at work? Then I told him I already told you he cannot have personal calls at work he has no diorect extension or line. He says you have one hour make it happen. That was on 8-28-09. I don't want to lose my home we are caught up except for August payment. Cannot borrow the money to pay off and no family to help. Someone help me with abusive credit laws and how long does it take before they can come take our home? He said I will have the sheriff come with me and you all will leave. We haven't been served anything from courts yet. Is he being a bully? Can they come throw you out without notice or 30 days? I told my husband we could probably have it paid for before anything could happen through court because its such a small amount. But would like to know for sure I have kids and no family to live with. He left abusive nasty message on hubbys work phone about me and to call him. How do I get help? The office he calls from greentree is in Lexington. Surely this home isn't worth it to come and move on landthats not mine for this small amount we owe them. Anyway, I figure we can probably have it paid off in payments before they try to get it but this company, after doing lost of research has a nasty reputation for threats and literally anything possible. Does anyone have any advice? Contract is "installment contract and security agreement" says I will have right to cure default during notice period. If I do not,can use acceleration (pay entire balance) or repossession. Can they throw us out before being served anything legally?
How long does this process usually take?
