Washtenaw Eviction and Foreclosure Defense (WEFD)

Washtenaw Eviction and Foreclosure Defense (WEFD) Washtenaw Eviction/Foreclosure Defense: Banks Out, Neighbors In! Detroit, for instance, topped the nation for highest number of foreclosures in 2007.

Inspired by the victories of Moratorium Now and Occupy Detroit as well as the foreclosure defense work across the nation, members of the Washtenaw Community Action Team, Occupy Ann Arbor and Occupy Ypsilanti have come together to form Washtenaw Foreclosure Defense (WFD). Southeastern Michigan communities have been afflicted by high rates of foreclosures for the last decade. Even so, the rate of fo

reclosures reached epidemic proportions in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, a crisis precipitated by the collapse of the housing bubble fueled in part by subprime loans and predatory lending practices that disproportionately targeted communities of color. At the close of 2008, Washtenaw County had historic levels of foreclosures – 42% of which were accounted for by the City and Township of Ypsilanti.
