Distressed Mortgage Solutions

Save or Sell that property today!

The definition of a 'Distressed Mortgage' is a loan that is anywhere from thirty days late to the days before the Sheriff's sale on the your county courthouse steps. In 2010 that even means any Adjustable Rate Mortgage or Interest Only Loan that is about to reset interest rates. You do not need to be late on mortgage payments to seek help from your mortgage lender and prove distress or 'imminent default'.

My personal mission is to make the banks acknowlege their part in creating this mortgage mess. My purpose is to put you back in control of your mortgage in whatever strategy benefits you the most.

I have nine different possible solutions to avert your mortgage distress. I cannot emphasize strongly enough that the sooner you call or email me, the more choices you'll have. You wouldn't stall cancer treatment; don't stall getting professional information. Information is king here.

I imagine you’re here because something went wrong, or may go wrong with your mortgage.

It could be for any number of reasons. Currently, it’s most commonly the downturn in the economy. One way or the other, it happens to more people than we know. It’s so tempting to feel like we’re the only ones in this predicament. It boils down to the economy, employment changes, lifestyle changes, personal income, or even business vagaries. You just must understand; Bad Things Happen To Good People. Your situation might be:

  • Wrong Mortgage, Wrong Terms (ARMs, Interest Only I/Os)
  • Dropping property values
  • Divorce
  • Deceased Homeowner
  • Significant change in family size
  • Bad Property Re-sale market
  • Big change in personal income
  • Loss of employment
  • Medical Expenses
  • Social Life Change
  • Job Relocation
  • Strung Out - multiple properties and not enough cash flow

Foreclose on me? - I Don't Think So!


Here are brief descriptions of each of the possible solutions I can help you with:

Mortgage Loan Modification

The mortgage modification industry has changed significantly in the last half of 2010. Banks have learned that they are not accountable to negotiate a distressd mortgage with anyone. Paying a third party to negotiate your mortgage is futile. Also, the MARS rule from the Federal Trade Commission effectively negates any profitability for any third party negtiator.

I have an entire separate page that explains how to qualify for and ensure good faith negotiations for a mortgage modification with your mortgage lender. If that's your first choice, please follow Do-it-yourself Mortgage Modification and read all about it. We are experiencing spectacular results with this method.

Short Sale

Generally, this is the best option if a Mortgage Loan Modification fails. A Short Sale is getting the bank to accept less than what is owed as payment in full for the current mortgage(s). The owner walks away with as little damage to their credit reputation as possible. My investor makes a cash offer for your property which your mortgage lender must consider. While we negotiate a purchase price, we engage a realtor to market your property. Since we have a vested interest in closing, we are very accomplished at negating the mortgage deficiency so that you can walk away with no future financial responsibility.

Note:
Please do not list your property with a Real Estate Agent. For a variety of reasons, this makes it almost impossible to negotiate an effective short sale price. We'll do everything that a listing agent will do - faster, more efficiently, and for less money. Call me for details.


Short sale is easily the least damaging to your credit rating. I advise lease/optioning another house for two years, use that to repair your credit, and you'll be in the perfect position to purchase that or another new home. Mortgage deficiencies cannot be taxed as income for 2010 or 2011. Now is the time to take control.

I strongly advise not committing to the Home Affordable Foreclosure Assistance (HAFA) provision of the Home Affordable Mortgage Plan (HAMP). Not one realtor or homeowner who has used HAFA is satisfied with the process. An experienced short sale negotiator will get much better results for you.

Mortgage Principal Reduction Refinance

Mortgage Principal Reduction Refinance means refinancing your distressed mortgage at it's new, reduced property value. It is also referred to as a "Short Refinance."

For conventional mortgages, we negotiate your
reduced property value and resulting mortgage deficiency with your current lender. For government insured mortgages, the REST Report uses the 'waterfall test' to qualify a home for the Principle Reduction Assistance' portion of the Home Affordable Mortgage Plan, or HAMP.

No FICO credit scores are needed. For conventional mortgage financing, your home is refinanced on the basis of the new, reduced property value. Your new interest rate will be higher, but for the right mortgage holder, the resulting lower monthly payment, combined with the opportunity to become current on monthly mortgage payments and repair your credit, will be a significant benefit. The target property for this program is the 'underwater' or 'upside down' mortgage.  You never relinquish the deed to your house.

The value is to refinance again in two or more years after your property values and credit scores are restored.
Meanwhile, you keep your home and lower your monthly mortgage payment. See more info here

Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure

Because of the severe damage to one's credit rating, I advise attempting a short sale instead. The REST Report assures a good faith negotiation of a short sale with your lender, so the benefit od a short sale is much better. Follow the link to short sale above and we can discuss that.

Owner Financing

If you've had your property for sale for awhile and have some equity, you might easily consider this option. You act as the lender, you qualify the prospective buyer and carry the note, in full or as a second mortgage. I'd be happy to help with this. Complete and submit my form here. I'll call you back today.

Lease Option

This option is for the property owner that wants to keep their property and is willing to re-locate to do it. Also referred to as "Rent-to-Own, your property is leased to a soon-to-be-qualified buyer - generally for a year.  But in the current mortgage climate, two years may be a preferable term. (See Short Sale above.) No one gets the Lease Option done better than we do.

'Subject to' Financing

This means an informal assumption of your existing mortgage financing. This option is for the owner who's top priority is to stay in their home and catch-up. I pay all back payments now and hold your Deed in escrow. You keep your home and bring your mortgage current; you pay me back on a pre-arranged schedule. Lower closing costs and a much faster assumption schedule are benefits. You, the owner and me as the investor, enables us to facilitate financing without the whims of your current lender. Build back your good credit as you go. Click here, complete and submit my form; I'll get back to you today.

Inverse Purchase

This little known and copyrighted option is a patented procedure to liquidate a HUD mortgage property. Your property can be sold to another buyer in one day, eliminating the 90-day seasoning requirement imposed by HUD in 1999. This spectacular option is unique; has been used since 2002 and never superceded. Click here, complete and submit my form; I'll get back to you today.

Round Robin Auction

When done well, the distressed homeowner and/or listing agent has been known to sell their property very efficiently with this option. Briefly, a single home auction is advertised by the 'owner' and averages 95% of Fair Market Value. Best accomplished with a current mortgage, it is quick and as painless as any method available today. Click here, complete and submit my form; I'll get back to you today.

One way or another, your property has become a liability instead of the original asset it started out to be. Life threw a curveball. Or a spitball!

Please believe me. I see it every day. Foreclosure is absolutely the worst path you can take. Foreclosure is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Some families never ever recover from it. Foreclosure will do more damage to your financial potential than anything else you could do. Or not do. The solution is to be pro-active. Pro-active comes from education in this process. I’ll help you with that. The REST Report ensures that your foreclosure court will not let your lender foreclose on you.

Another process distressed homeowners consider is declaring bankruptcy to stall the foreclosure. Unfortunately, 80% of properties that come out of bankruptcy go to foreclosure anyway. This just makes a horrible situation even worse. I implore you to research (and eliminate if necessary) the above options first.
