Created by The Douglin Group, a Maryland-based firm dedicated to helping homeowners avoid foreclosure, the DVD guides homeowners through a proven, easy-to-apply system for saving their home and/or their credit. The new 45-min. educational video is a companion piece to The Douglin Groups recently released publication, The Foreclosure Workbook. The DVD and Workbook will be displayed in the Wealth Pavilion at this weeks Congressional Black Caucus in Washington, D.C. "It is important to get this essential information directly to the people," said CEO Carla Douglin. "The Congressional Black Caucus is a terrific forum for both the government and consumers to see the power of this simple tool." Together, the DVD and Workbook instruct and encourage distressed homeowners to understand their finances, and then navigate them step by step through the foreclosure avoidance process. Homeowners will also gain critical information such as the most common foreclosure scams to watch out for, and what most people dont know about using bankruptcy to fight foreclosure. "With the knowledge they get from The Foreclosure DVD and The Foreclosure Workbook, homeowners are able to face foreclosure issues confidently and without embarrassment," said Douglin, who was recently named spokesperson for the American Homeowners Association, a national homeowner advocacy group. "They'll have the tools they need to effectively communicate with lending partners, explore their options, and then take informed, strategic action toward a beneficial outcome."
