Extended Foreclosure Relief for Victims of Los Angeles-Area Wildfires With FHA-Insured Mortgages

Issue Date: March 14, 2025


The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) granted an additional 90-day extension of the foreclosure moratorium for residents with certain Federal Housing Administration (FHA)-insured mortgages impacted by the wildfires in the Presidentially-Declared Major Disaster Areas (PDMDA) around Los Angeles, California. The moratorium prevents mortgage servicers from initiating or completing foreclosure actions on FHA-insured single family forward or Home Equity Conversion mortgages through July 7, 2025. In addition to those affected by the wildfires, a moratorium remains in place for persons with FHA-insured mortgages in areas affected by hurricanes Helene and Milton until April 11, 2025.
