    Having Trouble Making Your Mortgage Payment?




    9 Ways to Avoid Foreclosure:


    Reinstatement: Bring the loan current
    Forbearance: Temporary repayment plan
    Refinance: New loan with reduction in monthly payments
    Loan Modification: Modify original loan terms
    Sell the Property: Use equity to payoff or pay difference
    Rent the Property: Must make loan current
    Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure: " friendly foreclosure"
    Bankruptcy: Will stall foreclosure but not prevent it
    Short Sale: Negotiate with bank to accept sale under loan amount
