1. Don't ignore the phone calls and letters from your lender. This is the best way to wake up to a knock from the Sheriff telling you to vacate the home. Take this matter very seriously and work to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. Keep track of all correspondence you receive for later reference.
2. Stay in your home. You may not qualify for foreclosure help if the house is vacant. Your home, if proved vacant, can be seized. Stay in your home!
3.Contact us in person, by telephone (877) 922-2639, or by e-mail to discuss what the best foreclosure solutions are for you. We will negotiate on your behalf with the Mortgage Company to get your loan back in good standing. We understand the system, the foreclosure laws and the chain of events necessary to help you keep your home out of foreclosure. We will gladly walk you through them in a non-threatening way. You have to know what to say and what not to say. We are here to help.
Foreclosure Timeline– Once you become 90 days past due the Mortgage Company will typically issue a NOD (notice of Default). After you receive this notice they will hire an attorney and begin the Foreclosure with the Court system. The Foreclosure must follow a strict procedure laid out by your State laws. Eventually the house will be sold at auction if nothing is done to stop the Foreclosure. The Time line will show the time frames between the NOD and the actual sale date for the property. These time frames are typical and may vary depending on your actual situation. Even if your home has been scheduled for auction we can help.
What are my options?
1. Reinstatement- Pay the Mortgage Company all of the back payments to bring your mortgage current. This option is rarely attainable. The Mortgage Company will add late fees and Attorney fees on top of your back payments making this amount much more than people are able to come up with.
2. Workout- We can negotiate with your Mortgage Company to bring your loan back in good standing. There are many options available to us to get a work out approved. Some examples are as follows:
a. Forbearance- We will be able to arrange a payment plan based on your financial situation. This is mostly used in the instance of a tragedy or temporary loss of employment.
b. Loan Modification- We may be able to adjust the terms of the loan to meet your financial situation.
c. Partial Claim- You may qualify to have the repayment amount applied to the end of the current loan and resume normal payments.
3. Refinance- We have established partnerships with A-1 Capital Funding, Inc. who can give loans on mortgages that are in foreclosure if there is enough equity available. Or, we can help you in your situation and structure your credit so you may refinance for a better program down the road. Time heals everything.
4. Sell Your Home- You may simply sell your home before the Foreclosure Sale Date. Sometimes the home owner is unable to sell the home outright at the desired sale price and this is not an option. We may be able to negotiate a Short Sale on your behalf with your Mortgage Company. In this instance the Mortgage Company may take less than what you owe on the loan to avoid a lengthy and costly foreclosure process. We have realtors we work with that can help you sell your home for a much lower commission than any other realtor. We DO NOT want your home. We do not buy homes. We prefer you to stay in your home and live your life as you had originally planned. This is what you deserve. If you wish to sell your home that is fine. We can help you do that and still KEEP YOU IN THE HOME until it sells.
5. Deed-in-lieu of Foreclosure - We can arrange for you to simply give the home back to the Mortgage Company and walk away with a clean slate if this is what you wish.
6. Bankruptcy - This is a last resort. This will only save your home temporarily. If you miss one payment during this process the lender will put you right back into foreclosure. This is like putting a band aid on a bullet wound... we will still need to come up with a permanent repayment solution to get your house payments back on track. We can put you in touch with an Attorney to file the necessary paperwork.
7. Foreclosure - You may elect to allow the home to be entered into mortgage foreclosure. This is the most damaging to you. The Mortgage Company will take your home and all of your equity. If there is no equity they may come after you to pay the shortage or “deficiency”. This is also the most damaging to your credit and your ability to acquire another home loan. It is important to note that the Workout Options available to you may be limited dependent on the following factors: 1. the type of loan that you have 2. which investor holds your note, and 3. which mortgage insurance company insures your loan (if you carry mortgage insurance on your loan)
Why use us?
Unlike other foreclosure solution firms, we are not trying to buy your home when you are vulnerable and in need of help. We will analyze your situation and offer proven foreclosure help to save your home. We will negotiate with your Mortgage Company to stop foreclosure, save your home and resolve your case. We call ourselves “Specialists” because we SPECIALIZE in helping people get out of foreclosure. Our Name, Mortgage Negotiator Group, is the name that you can trust.
In Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure, we can negotiate with your lender to voluntarily give your property back to your Mortgage Company and your debt or deficiency is often forgiven. This won’t save your home, but it will help you with your chances of getting another mortgage loan in the future and it will help you avoid the lengthy legal process of foreclosure. Although it is a negative strike on your credit rating, it is less harmful than a mortgage foreclosure.
What does a Foreclosure Forbearance mean?
In Forbearance, we are allowed to delay or reduce payments for a short period, with the understanding that another option will be used at the close of that time to bring your account to a current status. Your lender, if in agreement, will then temporarily cease legal actions. Lenders may agree to combine your Forbearance with Reinstatement or a Repayment Plan if you know you can provide the needed funds to bring your account current by a specific date. This plan works for people who have just experienced a sudden living expense increase or income loss. We will negotiate with your lender to explain this hardship and hopefully get you the time you need to readjust your spending and recover financially.
What are the right foreclosure solutions for me?
Our consultants look at every case individually based on your financial situation, past and present. We want to stop your foreclosure, keep you in your home and establish a financial plan that will keep your credit in best standing and also at a level that is comfortable for you. We don’t want to give you a band-aid but a permanent foreclosure solution. Although many options exist, the only one that is right for you is the one that best fits your financial situation.
What is a Foreclosure Loan Modification plan?
The term “loan modification” refers to a readjusting of your current mortgage. If you can currently make your regular payment, but you can’t catch up with the past-due amount, we will negotiate with your lender to fold any past-due amounts, including interest and escrow, into the unpaid principal balance. This new amount will be re-amortized over a new period of time. Or, if you are unable to make payments at this rate, we will negotiate with your lender to extend your loan for a longer period of time, modifying the loan amount to a more affordable level. A Loan Modification or Loan Restructuring will change your existing mortgage note and give you a fresh new start in managing your home. Your account will be brought up to date immediately.
What is a Refinance Mortgage Foreclosure?
Depending on your income, credit report, value of your home and the amount of your equity, we can negotiate with a new lender to refinance your existing mortgage. Although this might be difficult to secure new financing with a default on your existing mortgage, if you have enough equity in your home, this option might be attractive to a new lender. A-1 Capital Funding, Inc. has several lenders that could help you in your situation. If the new lenders can not help...we will.
Although this option may likely create a loan with higher interest rates, a sizable upfront fee and a longer time for pay-off, it may be the best option for you. With your home refinanced, you will become immediately current, the foreclosure will cease and you will be able to enjoy your home.
