STOP FORECLOSURE NOW
Foreclosure leads to serious credit and legal consequences over the span of 10 years. After being evicted from your home the lender can file a judgement against you for up to the full value of your home, the IRS can garnish your wages, and creditors can attempt to collect (often doing so relentlessly). Even worse you'll likely face significantly greater challenges in qualifying for another home, apartment, car, credit cards, certain bank accounts and even certain jobs. Interest rates in this situation are often highly unfavorable, making monthly payments less affordable. Foreclosure is one of the most stressful situations people can face. It is truly in your best interest to stop foreclosure now.

1. Face The Problem
Contact your lender as soon as you anticipate falling behind on your mortgage payments. Lenders generally want to avoid foreclosure. They therefore offer options such as forbearance, repayment plans, mortgage modification, and others. While these options should be considered carefully, ignoring the problem and your lender's attempts to communicate will only make things worse. Lenders will eventually take legal action against you. It is best to face the problem.
3. Understand Your Equity
A realistic understanding of your home's value is important for determining the equity you have available should you need to use it for moving forward. If selling your home on the market is an option, preparing and listing it for sale with urgency will put you in a better position. However, if time is of the essence, paying closing costs and fees is not feasible, your home needs major repairs, and/or you owe more than what your home is worth, working with a trustworthy investor is the next best option.
2. Use Resources Available To You
When facing foreclosure there are resources available to you. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau offers low to no cost counseling agencies approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) . You can also explore other community based programs which offer homeowner assistance. Seeking legal counsel is another option to explore. In all, be cautious of unscrupulous individuals who look to take advantage of individuals facing hardship.
4. The Bottom Line
Avoiding the problem might be tempting, but putting a stop to foreclosure is crucial for you and your family's longterm wellbeing. As difficult as the experience is, another ten years of added stress can have a devastating impact. The bottom line is you should act now to avoid being foreclosed on.
