Rockwall Lady Continuing to Save Foreclosed Homes
Posted on October 14th, 2009 in Foreclosures | No Comments »

The good act started about one year previously. Today it has become a national movement to help the needy battle foreclosures. In November Marilyn Mock, a resident of Rockwall together with her son attended a foreclosure auction and was touched by a scene. One Tracy Orr was crying piteously because of the impending sale of her home.
Mock operates a rock yard. She borrowed money against her truck for dumping to purchase the house. The sight of Orr moved her very much and she gave the house to Orr following all procedures. It was arranged on a do-able terms that amounted to the house being $50,000 less that the loan Orr owed to her lenders.
The media soon trace Mock and she appeared on a television programme being the special guest of Oprah Winfrey.
Mock opines that she does not want to stop here but is eager to go ahead. She set up Foreclosure Angel Foundation to help the struggling home owners’ right across the nation. The media exposure has brought in dollars running into thousands in the form of donations. Many others like Orr have benefited from it
For Mock at the age of 51 it is something to crow about. She was brought up in an Indiana farm and is engaged in adopting animals. Surrounding her are a possum, a pair of dogs and a pig. Waving her arms she shows her office at Classic Rock situated on Highway 66. She said, “This is me – me and my pig and a possum in the drawer over there.”
Mock has been handling more than 5,000 applications. She has been lucky to save nearly 40 homes across USA. She explained, “We try to find the people that are really in need, not the ones that have just overspent; the ones that really have nowhere to turn. And there are so many of them.”
One such person is Terry Stammer, resident of Goldboro who spends her nights on a recliner and lets out bedrooms on rent to make the dollar run. A car accident left her incapable of work. She got into a fix when one of the tenants cheated her causing her to lag behind on her mortgage payments. She was planning to sell off her electric cart to make up the house payments when Mock located her and rushed in to her rescue. Stammer said, “She made me realize there are people out there who are willing to help. We stay in touch. She lets me know that I’m not alone.”
