Second mortgage advice
Second mortgage advice
I have a second mortgage that I have not been able to pay for quite awhile. The loan has gone into collections, the collection agency has offered me to settle for $.50 on the dollar. While that sounds good, I don't have the kind of money needed to settle. What are my options? Is the collection agency able to give me a better deal that I can afford? I live in Florida...

Hi Berto,
I personally feel that the collection agency has given you quite a good option in order to pay off the debt and get rid of it. You should somehow arrange for the money and go for it. You can try once again and check out if they are ready to offer you a lower amount but chances are less. It is solely the discretion of the collection agency as to what the settlement amount will be.
Thanks
