What They Don’t
Tell You is during that 5 year “repayment” plan, a good
portion of your weekly BK
payments
are going to the trustees and YOUR attorneys fees. Imagine that!!! Also,
while you are paying thousands a month to the plan, remember, your are
behind in payments, so some of that money is going to pay back what
you owe in back payments on your mortgage. Well what about the interest
being charged in the current payments? What happens to that? I can tell
you. It keeps going higher and higher and higher to point that you will
be upside down on your home. The interest will accrue (means go up)
at an alarming rate. That means if your balance on the home is $110,000
and your payments a month are $900 a month. The majority of that payment
is interest. After 2 years in the “repayment plan” your
payoff on your home could be as high as $131,600.
IN 2 YEARS!!! Doesn’t sound like much of a “long term option”
does it?
There
is NO magic solution for getting out of debt. Don’t believe
anyone who tells you otherwise. Keep in mind that even though we all
love our houses, a house is nothing but “bricks and sticks”
and we have seen unfortunately many good marriages go south and many
a good people’s health suffer from the self inflicted stress that
we put on ourselves and the financial jeopardy that we place on our
families and loved ones for a pile of “bricks and sticks”.
In almost
ALL cases, the best thing for a home owner to do when facing a foreclosure
is to SELL THE PROPERTY!
We can bring
your payments current, and in many cases even give you cash back out
of the equity of your home. *Every situation is different* We can even
help if there is no equity in your home. There are some situations where
we will agree to allow you to stay in your home and either rent the
property or lease/repurchase the property back. Our professionals will
advise you if that is an option that we will offer on your situation.
Many factors will be taken into consideration as equity in property
, time in home, and ability to pay the note.
If there is
sufficient equity in your home and/or you may be in an early stage where
your bank/lender has not begun proceedings or perhaps you are only 30-60
days behind and they have not reported to the credit bureaus your delinquency.
We can assist in refinancing your home and allowing you to keep your
home and move on without a major problem.
I’m
sure that you have been contacted by every wannabe Donald Trump, Carlton
Sheet graduate or aggressive investor, especially if the foreclosure
has been advertised in the local paper which is what happens for 3 weeks
before the sale date. Unlike other investors, we WILL NOT try
to take advantage of your unfortunate situation. We simply
figure out a mutually beneficial solution so you can move on with your
life! We will never charge you any out of pocket expenses or have you
pressured to sign anything. YOU will always have the final say.
TIME IS YOUR
ENEMY!!! Every day you wait is interest, penalties, and legal fees that
can be added, The longer you wait, the closer it gets, and the harder
it is to help you. Remember,” No matter how bad your past is,
your future is spotless”
