Frequently Asked Questions
Our service helps home and property owners that have
fallen behind with their mortgage payments, or have been named in a
foreclosure action. The following are questions commonly asked by
our clients.
Q.
Is it too late to do
anything if a foreclosure lawsuit has been filed against me?
A.
No. If you
take steps now to protect your interests, many alternatives remain
available to you.
Q.
Can I refinance my
current mortgage?
A.
Yes. With
sufficient equity you can refinance your mortgage with a new lender.
Even if you don't have much equity, very often your existing
mortgage can be restructured with your current lender.
Q.
Can I sell my property?
A.
Yes. Your
property remains yours to sell until the title has actually been
transferred out of your name and even if you owe more than your
property is worth, we are highly successful in negotiating full
satisfaction of your mortgage as the property is sold at market
value in a "short sale" transaction.
Q.
Can I avoid bankruptcy?
A.
Yes. In
nearly all cases, workout terms can be negotiated that prevent
foreclosure and the need to file for bankruptcy.
Q.
Can I continue to live
in my home?
A.
Yes. In many
cases your mortgage can be restructured according to your household
income and should you decide to sell, you can remain in your home
during the marketing period.
Q.
Will stopping
foreclosure save me money?
A.
Yes. As a
resolution to the claim is negotiated, which stops foreclosure, you
avoid forfeiting equity you may have in the property and also avoid
a deficiency judgment against you. These savings typically total
thousands of dollars. |
