Dear [first name],
Public records show a foreclosure filing on [property address]. You may still have more choices than it feels like, and selling before the sale date is one of them: it can protect your credit and the equity you have built.
I buy houses as-is and can close quickly if the timing matters. A free HUD-approved housing counselor can also explain every option to you.
