Today a record number of Americans are battling foreclosures but a new DVD has made its entry to help them win the war. It is The Foreclosure DVD: The Homeowners Guide to Understanding Foreclosure and Saving Their Home. A firm based in Maryland, The Douglin Group has created it. Step by step, it guides the home owner through a system that is easy to apply. It will help them save their houses and or their credit.
The educational video runs for 45 minutes. The latest is a companion to the group’s recently released publication – The Foreclosure Workbook. The entire set is available for $49.99 online – foreclosuredvd.com.
The two – the Foreclosure DVD and the Workbook gives instructions to distressed borrowers facing foreclosures and encourages them to come to terms with their financial position and steer forward, one step at a time, through the process that will help them to avoid foreclosure. The house owners also get to know vital information about the common forms of foreclosure scams and to be alert for such traps. They also get to know about how bankruptcy can be used as a weapon against foreclosures.
Carlin Douglin, CEO of the firm said, “With the knowledge they get from The Foreclosure DVD and The Foreclosure Workshop, homeowners are able to face foreclosure issues confidently and without embarrassment.” She was recently appointed spokesperson for the American Homeowners Association. The knowledge and guidance gained will be tools in the hands of the foreclosure victims with which they can find out the various options and then step forward to make a strategic move for a “beneficial outcome”.
The Douglin Group was founded by Carla Douglin to help foreclosure victims who were about to lose their houses. Observing her clients she found gaps in the knowledge pattern about finances and mortgages. This mixed with mental stress compounded the problem making the victims prone to inaction. Carla had had a corporate training background. Initially she chalked out a simple questionnaire to feel the pulse of her clients and guide them accordingly. This soon became a foreclosure manual, which developed into The Foreclosure Workbook and The Foreclosure DVD.Both promise timely assistance in battling the foreclosure crisis.
