AceShowbiz - Nate Dogg's home was foreclosed on March 11 just two days after his death because he allegedly failed to keep up with his mortgage payments while he was sick. The 41-year-old passed away on March 15 after a long battle with ill health, which included two debilitating strokes.
Dogg, real name Nathaniel Hale, hadn't made any mortgage payments on his Pomona, California property since December 2010, racking up a debt of $5,924, according to TMZ.com. Papers filed on March 17 suggest the house was seized just two days after the star's death.
