Can't afford your home? Letting the bank foreclose is not your best course of action!

I recently wrote about
Live Work Lofts in Silver Lake and those two complexes are relatively new. 36 on Echo is SO new that none of the units are actually completed yet! I did take some time to visit the model unit and see what the finished product will look like.
