Foreclosure options in Travis County

[Juan Cordero]

Hi,

I have 2 simple questions about foreclosures in Austin.

First, are there any foreclosure laws specific to Travis County I should be aware of before providing options to someone facing foreclosure?

And second, do banks in Austin offer forbearance plan, short sales, or repayment plans?

I'd like to be well informed on what a homeowners options are before actually providing solutions on how to avoid foreclosure. 

Thanks.
