Don’t Lose Equity to Foreclosure!

In today’s market, more and more people know someone who is struggling with their mortgage payment as a result of a sharp increase in their interest rate or other loan factors.

If you know someone who is facing a possible foreclosure, I have information that can help. And the sooner we act to help someone in this position, the better the outcome. Because once a house starts to go into foreclosure, it can be difficult to stop and the ramifications can be long lasting:

• the owners may face substantial late fees
• the owners may loose all of their equity
• the owners may suffer with a mark on their credit that will take years to erase
  

But, this does not have to happen. There are a number of effective strategies to help the homeowner forestall a foreclosure. Renegotiating the loan is one possibility. Two other options are a short sale (sell for less than the loan amount with bank approval), or a quick sale (sell for more than the loan amount but at a lower, more attractive market price).

Whether it is to help preclude a foreclosure, pull equity out of their home for investment properties, or assist them in either finding a new home or selling their current one, I have the knowledge and the expertise to make the process go smoothly.
