| Re: Investment property in IL, live in WI Good morning. A key word search on Illinois foreclosure call resulted in finding the information provided below. While Illinois does provide lenders with the capability of obtaining a deficiency judgment, the fact that lenders do not have a non-judicial foreclosure path and must resort to judicial foreclosure with its lengthy processing time, suggests that the "deed-in-lieu" or "consent to foreclosure" alternatives are utilized. Noting that, I would suggest contacting your lender and suggesting that alternative because if the lender accepts, they cannot chase you later for the deficiency shortfall.
