Giving up more than just your home
The state of the housing market has not only left homeowners without shelter but their pets as well. The foreclosure crisis across the country has pushed
foreclosed homeowners to desperate measures. Inspectors, neighbors and Realtors have found animals locked in basements, garages and yards of foreclosed properties, left without proper nutrition to survive.
Fortunately, steps are being taken to care for these animals. No Paws Left Behind is a program designed to rescue animals from foreclosed properties, which recently announced that it has reached its 1000th animal rescue from a foreclosed home. No Paws works to rescue these pets and then place them in “no kill” shelters until foster care or adoptions can be arranged.
No Paws Left Behind was founded, and is operated, by Cheryl Lang, the CEO of Integrated Mortgage Solutions, an REO property inspections provider. Please take a moment to review their site here, and spread the word about this great program to anyone you may know either in the real estate industry or families that have recently faced foreclosure.
