Is this property really worth fighting for, or should I sell it?

If you are now in a foreclosure, your choices are limited. However, help is available, and you have several options to stop the foreclosure process.

If you have owned your house, and your name is on the deed, for an extended period, or you have significant equity on your property that you want to save, the following options may apply to you.

A loan modification can decrease the banks approach towards your property in question. If you are able to lower your monthly mortgages payments by half, or a third of what were prior to your current financial crisis, your chances of staying in your home will increase. Not all banks will hand out a loan modification.

A more damaging method in avoiding a foreclosure is filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. This motion will ruin your credit for years to come, and may produce other side effects years later. Chapter 13 bankruptcy will offer the immediate protection on your assets, and it will offer you the unique opportunity to catch up on outstanding payments within a time frame of 3 to 5 years.

Both a loan modification and a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, will provide temporary relief to a long term problem. One other method in dealing with an impending foreclosure is to find an investor to buy your home directly from you. Premier Real Estate NYC is a company that helps homeowners in all three methods: loan modification, Chapter 13 bankruptcy, and selling your home. [Read more...]
