Don't Subject Yourself To Foreclosure - Call Your Lender Right Now!
By Martin Schwartz
The biggest fears of most of us as homeowners is that we'll fall on tough times and lose our homes because of it. This fear of foreclosure isn't very well grounded though. That's because most foreclosures in are the result of how homeowners handle tough economic times rather than the economic troubles themselves. In other words, foreclosures in don't have to happen.

The first step to prevent home foreclosure is to contact your lender and tell about your economic problems as soon as possible. If you're lucky enough to be reading this before you've missed any of your payments, that means calling your lender right now- before you even finish reading this article! If you've already missed payments, you still need to call as soon as possible.

Companies like Home Assure who deal with home foreclosure prevention can talk to you leander and learn all of the options available to you. Talking to the lender may seem a little strange when you consider the fact that your lender is also the institution that would be responsible for foreclosing on your house if it came down to that, but what you have to understand is that lenders only foreclose on homes when they have no other alternative. All too often lenders' hands are tied simply because the homeowners are uncooperative and don't inform the lenders of their problems.

Once you've talked to a representative, you'll be able to consider your options for avoiding foreclosure. Generally, your options will include forebearance, mortgage modification, and refinancing your mortgage. Forebearance is the solution of choice for situations where homeowners have temporary economic troubles such as an injury or illness that gets in the way of working for a while, but the homeowner will ultimately recover from. With forebearance, the lender allows the homeowner to postpone payments for a set number of months and then the homeowner will make larger payments for a certain amount of time in order to catch up after the lull in the payments is over.

Mortgage modification and refinancing are longer term solutions that are best suited for situations like the loss of one's job, divorce, or long term disability. Basically any of these options are good for any situation where the homeowner's ability to make money will be compromised for a long time. Mortgage modification is exactly what it sounds like- changing the terms of the mortgage in order to reduce the monthly payment. Refinancing is getting a new mortgage that will pay off the old one. In both of these cases, the homeowner should be left with a lower interest rate, a longer time to pay off the loan, less principle to pay off, or any combination of the three.

There is another option that hasn't been mentioned yet and that's selling the home. Many people would balk at the idea of selling their homes in for the same reason that they'd balk at the idea of having their homes be foreclosed on. There are actually a significant number of differences between the two. Basically, a foreclosure is something that the lender does after you've failed to make payments for a significant period of time. After the foreclosure, the lender still probably won't have all of its money back and may be able to come after you for the difference. Plus, your credit will be in shambles, which will make renting or buying a new home or even finding a job much more difficult. If you sell your home though, you'll be able to put it on the market, hopefully get a price that's close to what you paid for it, get some relief from mortgage payments while your home is on the market, and preserve your credit all at the same time.

With these options, foreclosure is clearly that last thing that you should be subjected to.
