An elderly Florida man is at risk of losing a home he’s lived in for 20 years after the federal government filed a $190,000 lawsuit over a reverse mortgage he says he never knew existed.
Facing the possible loss of the only home he has known for decades in an auction sometime this month, Bill Tavernier said he is fighting not just for himself but also for his beloved 10-year-old Golden Retriever, Gunner. With few options and nowhere else to go, Tavernier filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy this week to try to stay in his Deltona house.
