If you or someone you know is 30 days or more delinquent on their home loan, there are several option that are available to help you on them in this time of great need. Please call me as there are several solution that I may be able to recommend to you that would lessen your mortgage burden and get you on path of recovery. Some of the solutions include:

Rate Reduction and Loan Modification: If you have a reset on your loaned and your mortgage payment is going up significantly and/or you have a variable rate mortgage, some lenders allow for a note modification and rate reduction thus lowering your payment and making your payment more affordable. You could also ask for a note modification to make your loan fixed thus avoiding the surprises of your mortgage payment rising.

Forbearance: In case you have a short term crisis, such as job loss or medial illness, the lender ma allow a Forbearance thus thus suspending your payments for a period of time until you get through your crisis. At the end of forbearance, the lender may look at way to modify your payment and adjust your loan to account for the missed payments.

Short Pay or Short Sale: In the case when you simply can not afford to stay in the home and you are behind on your payments, lender may allow what is called a Short Pay or Short Sale. That is when you find a willing buyer to purchase your home for less than what is owed on the property and the lender takes a loss on the loan. Many lenders prefer this option over a foreclosure as it reduces their losses over that of a foreclosure and also gets the delinquent loan off their books sooner reducing the risk of the loan to their institution.

Finally, is you are totally satisfied with your current loan and financial situation and want to take advantage of investing in foreclosures and/or significantly reduced prices of real estate, call me to see if there will be opportunities for you to take advantage of over the next 12 months.
Investing in real estate in a down market can help you secure your retirement and financial future.

I am not speaking of flipping properties. I am speaking of investing in a rental property on a fixed rate loan to help you have an investment that will stand the rest of time and allow you many financial rewards over the long haul!

Arguably, real estate is one of the safest, most effective forms of investing for your future and build your wealth if it is done wisely and with the help of a real estate and lending professional.
Lets strategize ways to help you understand and increase the effectiveness of these investment.

Subprime Mortgages

If you have a mortgage loan that is going to reset this year, or on either 2008 or 2009, now is the best time to refinance since the interest rate is below 6%. You can either refinance for 30, 20 or 15 years fixed and you'll live with a peace of mind.

At least for this year and probably up to the spring of 2008, the rates are going to be the same. Refinancing from two loans into one when you have equity will be of a financial benefit to you by lowering the mortgage payment.

I hope you take advantage of the low interest rate.

Countrywide

The Calabasas California home based mortgage lender is bailing out a lot of their clients out of the subprime loans that are reseting this year. They are doing loan modifications, refinancing their loans to a fixed rate, in order to prevent future foreclosures.

If you have a mortgage loan with them, and you are late on your payments or unable to make them, do not put aside the letters they sent you, and don't procastinate because help is availabe, the are willing to help you in whatever way possible.

The same happens almost with every mortgage lender, they prefer to help you than ended up with a foreclosures, which cost them more money and having a repossessed property that will take months to sell.
