This doesn't have to be you.
If you live in the Chicago area and worry you're in danger of losing your home, there's a series of local events coming up you should check out.
The city is holding a "Fix Your Mortgage" event May 2 to help get you on track. It will be held at the Police and Firefighter Training Academy, 1300 W. Jackson.
The Fix Your Mortgage seminar is designed to help homeowners learn how to take advantage of the federal foreclosure assistance plan.
The city is also holding five more "Borrower Outreach Days" through the rest of the year. These ongoing events help current homeowners navigate the Obama Homeowner Affordability and Stability Plan. It's only open to borrowers who live in their homes, not to people with second or third homes.
