GOVERNMENT&

The procedures of a government foreclosure are basically identical to those of any other foreclosure. The variance is in the loan process, where the U.S. government has offered loan insurance to lenders on mortgages made by qualifying individuals. These loans can be VA, HUD loans, or FHA loans. If a borrower becomes delinquent in the repayment of the mortgage, than the government foreclosure occurs along the same path as any other mortgage. The federal government has chosen to privatize these foreclosures so the borrower will usually be working with a third party. The individual borrower can seek assistance in understanding and responding to the government foreclosure by using the resources offered by ApartmentStores Moving and Relocation.

The one variable in a government foreclosure is that it is the government who moves to reclaim the mortgaged property instead of the mortgage lender. The process follows the same general outline as all other foreclosure. It the homeowner of a government insured loan realizes that there will be difficulty in making the payments as scheduled, a plan must be developed. Time is not your friend in this process and the problem will not simply disappear. Several important decisions will have to be made and the sooner the better. First analyze your financial position. Is the problem a short term or long term one? The answer to this question will determine the course to follow.

Refinance-if the circumstances that led to the default in the mortgage were short term, such as an illness or job change than a refinance may be save the home, however terms will probably not be as good as on the government loan. Consider a 2nd mortgage if your finances have improved and you will be able to make the necessary payments.

Sell-if you have equity in your home, a quick sale may allow you to save at least some of it and will also keep a foreclosure from appearing on your credit bureau history.

Credit Counseling-there are several programs available for assistance in dealing with general foreclosure as well as government foreclosure. This assistance should be sought out early in the process if the homeowner desires to save his home. Remember the sooner a solution is developed to resolve the default mortgage the more likely the home can be saved.

Again, it is important to remember that a government foreclosure will take the same pathway as other real estate foreclosure. Decisions must be made and plans implemented in a short period of time. The usual foreclosure process takes from 45 days to 15 months depending on the state in which the homeowner lives. It is important that each individual determines what the legal requirements are for the state in which they live. ApartmentStores Moving and Relocation can provide assistance to the individual facing a government foreclosure.
