Rhode Island does not currently have a foreclosure ban in effect. A local housing agency may be able to offer advice or assistance.

Unless an individual judge is willing to hear a foreclosure matter remotely, Rhode Island's ban on in-person hearings limits lenders' ability to foreclose on a mortgage. At the same time, most mortgages in the state will qualify for deferment or forbearance through the CARES Act or the loan servicer, itself. Contact your lender to see how they can help you.
