Prevent Foreclosure

If you fall behind in your monthly house payments, the seller or lender may try to take the house back. This is generally called foreclosure. If a house is foreclosed, you may lose not only your house, but also all of the money you’ve invested. A foreclosure or a deficiency judgment could seriously affect your ability to qualify for credit in the future. Avoid this if at all possible.

Ways That You Can Prevent Foreclosure

• Early intervention is the key! If you’re having trouble making your monthly mortgage payments, contact your lender immediately. Don’t wait!
• Don’t ignore letters from your lender.
• Clearly explain your situation. Write down who you spoke to, the date, and what was said.
• Be prepared to provide your lender with your current financial information, such as your monthly income and expenses.
• You can stop the foreclosure by making up any delinquent payments plus any costs related to the foreclosure.
• Remember to use registered or certified mail in all your correspondence on legal matters.
