Can a debt collector physically show up to your home to collect on a home equity mortgage?

William R asked:


I was a collector of unsecured debt for years ( I was the guy that hounds you on the phone :( ). I know the FTC regulates debt collection through the Federal Debt Collectors Practices Act. I remember my boss telling me about the Good Ol’ Days when he would go to peoples homes and actually reclaim furniture, pianos etc. I am looking for specifics. Thanks in advance!
