First, don't worry at all.
Keep a cool head and analyze your options.
You have more options to choose from than you thought. If you have nightmares on foreclosure, you need to know this.
Lenders hate foreclosures.
Yes, because it involves a hefty cost and nobody likes paying through their pockets. All you need to do is talk to your lender before the payment is due and try to negotiate with him.
The lender is human enough and will surely help you out.
First ask yourself a few questions:
If the condition is permanent but you are not bankrupt yet, you can request your lender for a loan modification. This could involve either:
If and only if all other options fail should you hands down on foreclosure. So, play your cards safe, maintain good terms with your lender and work out a plan to get out of the foreclosure. Whatever you do inform the lender. The arms are already in your cache, choose the one which fits the bill.

First ask yourself a few questions:
- Can I afford to pay my mortgage after a few months?
- Can I never pay it back?
- Can I afford to lose my house?
- Is my lender on good terms with me?
If the condition is permanent but you are not bankrupt yet, you can request your lender for a loan modification. This could involve either:
- A reduced interest rate
- A longer term
- A different loan type Or,
- A combination of the above
- Work out an assumable mortgage: You can sell the property with the mortgage to a buyer who is willing to be liable to the deal.
- Short sale: With the lender's permission you can sell the house and repay the loan as full payment from the proceeds of the sale. This amount has to be accepted even if the loan balance exceeds the sale price of the property.
- Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure: You can hand over the title to the lender in full discharge of the mortgage.

hello shekib,
you need to contact someone in the loss mitigation department of your lender. they will have several workout options that you may qualify for to keep your home. some of the options include a loan modification.
be sure to ask for a fixed rate and a lower rate.
be sure that your current monthly expenses do not exceed your current monthly net income.
let us know if you still need help and have more questions. you may visit home-buddies.com and get the free mortgage problem guide that is available there.
good luck. :d

This loan modification is going to be a big problem for small business owners. A lot of people are choosing to default on their home in order to keep the offices running. That may not be the best option, because in the end everyone is hurt.
Small business owners need to be reminded that there are alternatives to financing, not defaulting is one of them.
Try searching for "strong business credit" via google or yahoo. This would be a good start if you are a business owner.

My parents are in the same boat right now, but they just decided to stop paying and move on. Will they be able to come after my parents for the money?
Hi msnover,
Walking away from the property may result into foreclosure. The lender will sell off the property in order to recover the debts. If it results into a deficient amount, then the lender can come after your parents for that deficient amount.
Thanks.

I can not make the mortgage payment and the house insurance is not
included in the loan. Do I still have to continue to pay the homeowners insurance?

Hi dod,
If you want to get rid of your home, then you can list the property in the market. This will help you in getting buyers for your property. If you're already delinquent on your mortgage payments, then you can apply for a deed in lieu of foreclosure. If the lender accepts your request, then you would be able to sell off the property and you won't be liable for paying the balance amount resulting from the property sale.
Thanks,
Jerry
