If you are unable to make your mortgage payment:
1. Avoid foreclosure prevention companies.
You don't need to pay fees for foreclosure prevention help-use that money to pay the mortgage instead.
Many for-profit companies will contact you promising to negotiate with your lender. While these may be
legitimate businesses, they will charge you a hefty fee (often two or three month's mortgage payment)
for information and services your lender or a HUD approved housing counselor will provide free if you
contact them.
2. Don't lose your house to foreclosure recovery scams!
If any firm claims they can stop your foreclosure immediately if you sign a document appointing them
to act on your behalf, you may well be signing over the title to your property and becoming a renter in
your own home! Never sign a legal document without reading and understanding all the terms and getting
professional advice from an attorney, a trusted real estate professional, or a
HUD approved housing counselor.
3. Don't ignore the problem.
The further behind you become, the harder it will be to reinstate your loan and the more likely that you will lose your house.
4. Contact your lender as soon as you realize that you have a problem.
Lenders do not want your house. They have options to help borrowers through difficult financial times.
5. Open and respond to all mail from your lender.
The first notices you receive will offer good information about foreclosure prevention options that can help
you weather financial problems. Later mail may include important notice of pending legal action. Your failure
to open the mail will not be an excuse in foreclosure court.
6. Know your mortgage rights.
Find your loan documents and read them so you know what your lender may do if you can't make your payments.
Learn about the foreclosure laws and timeframes in your state (as every state is different) by contacting the
State Government Housing Office.
7. Understand foreclosure prevention options.
Valuable information about foreclosure prevention (also called loss mitigation) options can
be found on the internet at www.fha.gov/foreclosure/index.cfm.
8. Contact a HUD-approved housing counselor.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds free or very low cost housing counseling nationwide.
Housing counselors can help you understand the law and your options, organize your finances and represent you in
negotiations with your lender if you need this assistance. Find a HUD-approved housing
counselor near you or call (800) 569-4287 or TTY (800) 877-8339.
9. Prioritize your spending.
After healthcare, keeping your house should be your first priority. Review your finances and see where you can cut
spending in order to make your mortgage payment. Look for optional expenses-cable TV, memberships, entertainment-that
you can eliminate. Delay payments on credit cards and other "unsecured" debt until you have paid your mortgage.
