Facing Foreclosure can be very frightening. Not only are you faced with the reality of becoming homeless, but the feeling of helplessness and a blemished future can consume you. A Foreclosure will cost a bank $50,000 to $85,000 and stays on a homeowners permanent record.

My mission is to help the distressed homeowner...and I do this at NO COST to you.
If you want to stay in your home
and cannot afford the payments anymore, my experience helps me negotiate with your mortgage company to reduce your payments and late fees. Banks are more willing today to do a loan modification or forbearance.
If you do not want to stay in the home,
or negotiations are not possible to bring the payments within your means...my experience in Distressed Real Estate marketing and sales will get your home sold before an auction, saving you from having Foreclosure on your permanent record. Again, NO COST. Most homeowners are not aware if you are in this situation, your mortgage company will pay all your closing costs and agent's commission.
- The benefits to trying something, instead of just walking away are numerous.
- When a foreclosure completes the bank will issue a 1099. The amount on your unpaid mortgage may show up as INCOME the next time you do your taxes. Our job is to make this amount as small as possible, and in many cases eliminate it completely.
- A short sale instead of foreclosure will put you in the position of attaining a government backed mortgage in just 2 years.
