06/20/2024 – Foreclosure bail out!

I have a past client heading to foreclosure who needs money fast to save the house! We generally look at these on a case-by-case basis to see if they are worth the risk and what we can do in the future to save the house.

 

First, we look at the equity, and if a borrower is over 60%of the appraised value, then no lender will bail out a buyer in foreclosure. I say that, but I have seen private parties do it and get burned when they do.

 

Next, we consider the homeowner’s potential short-term and long-term outcomes if we were to provide a bailout. Could they potentially refinance their mortgage in a year or two? Would their financial situation and credit score improve? And importantly, how much would their monthly payment increase if they were to proceed with this bailout?

 

Many times, these buyers come to us 1-2 days before a foreclosure sale, which makes it challenging, but not impossible, for us to save the deal. We have the expertise and resources to provide a solution. Sometimes, it is a quick fix, a small loan just to satisfy the current lender, and then they have time to fix what is broken and then sell the property.

 

We are currently lending a client four mortgage payments to get him caught up, as he was in the hospital for a bit. Then, we will follow up with a private money loan; next year, we should be able to refinance him to a much better payment!

 

Bad things happen to good people, and we try to have options for all of them! Let us know if you have any questions or clients that need help!
