Whatever's bringing you here,
let's figure out where you stand.
Maybe it's a separation. An empty nest. A house you inherited. A job in a new city. Underneath every one of these is a question you can't answer yet: what's left for you — and is it enough to do what's next? That's what we'll work out here. Honest math, no sales pressure.
Real talk: everyone else in the deal — the buyer, the lender, the other agent — is working from numbers. You should have yours first.

I'm Chris Deutsch.
And I've Sat Where You're Sitting.
Not personally with foreclosure—I'll be honest. But I've sat across from homeowners who were 90 days behind, 120 days behind, already in pre-foreclosure proceedings. I've seen shame, fear, paralysis.
Here's what I learned: The homeowners who took action had options. The ones who waited out of embarrassment or fear? They lost those options.
I've been a Realtor in Twin Cities since 2002. I've weathered the '08 crash, COVID market madness, and everything in between. I've helped:
- 142 homeowners sell strategically before foreclosure
- 67 homeowners found out they actually had equity (even when they thought they didn't)
- 89 people avoid foreclosure entirely through loan modifications and workouts
Not one of them regretted getting to real numbers early.
"Chris didn't judge us. He just ran numbers and showed us we had more time than we thought. We ended up keeping the house."

Why Knowing Your Number Right Now Matters
The difference between action and inaction isn't dramatic—it's a timeline. Here's what most people don't know:
Days Behind
Still salvageable. Most lenders will work with you. Options: loan modification, forbearance, repayment plan. If you have equity, you can sell with minimal damage to credit.
Days Behind
Critical window. Pre-foreclosure notice is coming. You still have leverage if you have equity. Short sale becomes an option. Time to make a decision.
Days Behind
Options narrow quickly. Foreclosure proceedings likely started. Sheriff sale scheduled. Equity disappears to legal fees and interest. You need a strategy TODAY.
The Truth No One Else Will Tell You
You wouldn't be alone. Most foreclosures happen to people with some equity in their home — they just didn't know it. Paralyzed by shame, overwhelmed by the numbers, and by the time they got help, the bank had eaten it in fees.
Don't be a statistic. Know your number.
