Are you or someone you know grappling with the threat of foreclosure? Life throws challenges that sometimes make it difficult to keep up with mortgage payments.
From health complications and the loss of a loved one to increasing mortgage rates, expanding family needs, market fluctuations, unemployment, divorce, and overwhelming medical expenses, there are numerous reasons why keeping up with payments might become unmanageable.
If your home is dangerously close to being auctioned off, or if you've just received that daunting notice from your lender, it's imperative to understand your rights and the avenues open to you.
Many of the options available might have lasting effects on your credit score. We assist homeowners facing these challenges every month, presenting a range of strategies, including:
If you need to catch up on payments, or know someone in this predicament, we invite you to fill out our brief seller inquiry form. We're ready to share valuable, no-cost insights about your options. Here's a brief overview of some strategies:
Existing Mortgage Reinstatement Plan:Â
This plan covers all missed payments, including principal, interest, late fees, and legal costs. Demonstrating your capability to make a full payment might persuade your lender to reinstate your loan.
Repayment Plan with Your Lender:
Experiencing a temporary setback? Your lender might agree to a repayment plan, allowing you to pay off your overdue mortgage in parts, with some paid upfront and the rest spread out over the next 12-24 months.
Loan Modification:
Sometimes, lenders may modify your loan to stop foreclosure by adding the overdue amounts to your loan's principal, possibly altering your interest rate and extending your loan's duration.
Refinancing Your Property:Â
With adequate home equity and favorable local real estate conditions, refinancing might offer a stable long-term solution. Opt for trustworthy brokers and avoid schemes with pre-payment penalties and variable rates.
Pre-Foreclosure Property Sale:Â
Selling your home before it hits auction allows for a pre-foreclosure sale. A discreet, obligation-free offer from a local property investor could facilitate a swift sale.
Short Sale Negotiations:
If there is not enough equity, a short sale can be negotiated with lenders to accept a sale amount lower than what is owed on the mortgage. Due to its complexity, this process requires expert advice.
Deed-In-Lieu of Foreclosure:Â
In dire situations, handing over your property to the lender may be the final option, contingent on having a single mortgage and meeting specific conditions.
