Foreclosure Prevention for Stroudsburg Homeowners

As the county seat of Monroe County, Stroudsburg sits at the center of the Poconos foreclosure landscape. Many homeowners in the borough purchased older homes in the downtown corridor and surrounding neighborhoods during the mid-2000s housing boom, when property values were climbing rapidly. When the market corrected, these families found themselves owing far more than their homes were worth. Today, even as the Poconos real estate market has stabilized, many Stroudsburg residents still carry underwater mortgages or have fallen behind on payments due to job loss, medical expenses, or rising costs of living.

Because the Monroe County Courthouse is located right here in Stroudsburg, the foreclosure process hits especially close to home. Sheriff sales are posted at the Monroe County Sheriff's office on Main Street, and if you've received notice that your property is on the list, you know the urgency is real. The Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program offered through Monroe County Court gives homeowners facing foreclosure an opportunity to meet with their lender in a supervised setting, but many people don't know it exists or don't realize they need to act quickly to qualify.

PA Property Rescue has been working directly with Stroudsburg families since 2019. We understand the unique challenges of this area — the mix of historic properties that need costly repairs, the commuter families who moved here from New York and New Jersey seeking affordable housing, and the seasonal economic pressures that come with living in the Poconos. Whether you're a longtime Stroudsburg resident or someone who relocated here for a fresh start, we're here to help you find a way out of foreclosure that protects your future.

Local Context

Foreclosure in Monroe County

Rising Foreclosure Filings

Monroe County has seen a significant increase in foreclosure filings in recent years. As a commuter region for the New York metro area, Stroudsburg felt the housing bubble acutely — and many homeowners are still dealing with the aftermath.

Underwater Mortgages

Many Stroudsburg homeowners are underwater on mortgages taken during the Poconos boom. Properties that were purchased at peak prices have not fully recovered in value, leaving owners trapped between unaffordable payments and an inability to sell.

Diversion Program

The Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program at Monroe County Court can help buy time. This program facilitates mediation between homeowners and lenders, giving Stroudsburg residents the chance to explore alternatives before losing their home at sheriff sale.

Act 91 Notice

Under Pennsylvania law, your lender must send an Act 91 Notice before filing foreclosure. This gives you 30 days to seek help through a housing counseling agency and apply for the HEMAP program. If you've received this notice, time is critical — call us today.

"We bought our home near downtown Stroudsburg thinking we'd be close to everything — the shops, the courthouse area, the schools. When we fell behind on our mortgage, we didn't know where to turn. PA Property Rescue walked us through every option and negotiated a short sale that eliminated over $35,000 in debt. We're renting a few blocks away now and rebuilding. They truly care about this community."
