Loan Modification Service

If you want to keep your home, you might want to seek out a loan modification company that specializes in negotiating the interest, balance, and payments of real estate loans. You want to work with a company that contracts with attorneys who do thousands of loan modifications and so they are experts in the process, handling your paperwork fast. You want the companies attorneys to also fully comply with California Law SB94, which means that you will not be charged up front for any service rendered by them.

Sell Your Home Fast with a Short Sale

You might find yourself in a position where you have little or no equity in your home, or worse yet, your equity is upside down, which means that you owe more than your home is worth. A solid company that specializes in helping people that owe more on their home that it is worth will work with your situation through a process known as "short sale" and pay cash for your property. One of the first steps that needs to be taken in the short sale process is to renegotiate the principal balance with your bank. And it doesn't matter what your loan balance is, so don't worry about that.

Loss Mitigation

With these services you will be mitigating your losses. One loss you don't have to incur is the negative effects of having a foreclosure listed on your credit report for seven years. When you stop a foreclosure, the banks reduce their losses because they don't have to take back ownership of your home or go through the hassles of selling it.

You might want to list your property with a real estate agent thinking and hoping that a buyer will make an offer and close escrow fast. But in today's economy and real estate market, receiving an offer that meets your financial needs and then closing the escrow could take several weeks or months. If the buyer cannot qualify or finds another home to buy, they will cancel the deal and you have to list your home all over again, if there's still time to do it.

You will want to work with a team of specialists that will work with you regardless of whether or not your property is listed. It can take up to six months to finalize a short sale, but we work with your bank to try to make sure the process is completed before the foreclosure takes place.

To wrap up this report, just remember that if you are in foreclosure, there is hope for mitigating your losses either through a short sale or a loan modification.
