Your House Forclosed And You Think You’re Off The Hook- Think Again

Posted April 21, 2010 – 10:17 pm in: Mortgage

I would be skeptical about the idea that people who have taken out mortgages become chummy with their mortgage lenders. Mortgage lenders will raise rates as they please, and then, when they don’t get that payment, they will take away the place where you live. Today, this is an alarming trend that ends up with homeowners either underwater or renting an apartment. And now, banks are attempting to get their money back from the foreclosure sale.

Why Commercial Mortgage Modification Is Being Encouraged

Posted March 2, 2010 – 8:22 am in: Mortgage

Financial analysts have been predicting that the commercial property sector will also undergo a crisis that might even be worse than the collapse experienced in the residential housing market. The increasing number of vacancies in commercial properties and the unchecked increase in the unemployment rate are harbingers of potential serious problems in this particular market. This is a logical prediction because the end result of this kind of situation are problems for the property owners in making the monthly installments. And if they could not make the monthly payments, it naturally follows that they would not also be able to make good with the balloon payment at the end of the loan term. Just like in the housing sector, the large number of defaults and foreclosures could worsen an already ailing economy. It is here where commercial mortgage modification could provide assistance to the ailing property owners, the banks and the economy as a whole.

The Big Question: Pay That Mortgage Or Walk Away?

Posted February 9, 2010 – 5:42 am in: Mortgage

In the midst of the real estate boom, many homebuyers extended their finances to purchase a house that might have been beyond their means. With the market on fire, people were apt to buy with low introductory interest rates and interest-only loans. They believed that their income would increase to meet their payments and predicted that real estate prices would never fall. Unfortunately, adjustable-rate mortgages have adjusted and monthly mortgage payments have gone up. Couple that with the fact that income hasn’t increased, and you will see why more people have fallen behind with their mortgage payments.
