Foreclosure forces family apart

Foreclosure forces family apart

Elvis Bravo’s American dream is underwater and for sale.

The Mexican-native and his extended family have been living for 2 1/2 years in a house in DeLeon Springs.

But the mortgage holder is foreclosing, and now Bravo is trying to sell the house. It’s the home his 20-month-old son, Bryan, came home to after his birth. Bravo’s brother and his wife also live there with their child, born about two months ago. Bravo’s mother also lives there.

Now a “For Sale” sign has been planted on its lawn on Dundee Avenue. And the hopes and dreams of Elvis and his wife are on hold.
