Bernhardt regains home, cash settlement

According to a KHOU-11 report, Pam Bernhardt, the woman who lost her home in a suspicious "foreclosure" involving a homeowner's association, has gotten her property back:

About a month ago, Pam Bernhardt said she learned that her home, which she had rented to someone else, had been sold during a foreclosure auction. She found out when someone slipped a notice under the door of the house where she lives.

The Briar-Hills Homeowner's Association had foreclosed on the property back in September, saying Bernhardt had not paid $425 in association dues. She says she was never told her dues were late.

Her attorney says the agreement will allow her to keep the $275,000 house on Forest Home at Swallowfield in southwest Houston.

In an interview with KTRH-740's Chris Baker earlier, Bernhardt stated that she had obtained her home and a cash settlement, as apparently the parties who took her home from her wanted to avoid court proceedings. That's a pretty good sign they didn't have a legal leg to stand on, and knew it.
