It is no news that Mortgage Modification Program failed to deliver results it was intended to. Rigorous requirements prevented many homeowners from qualifying and getting help under Obama plan.
Banks and lending institutions were pumped up with millions in form of government help to work with homeowners. Since participation in the program was voluntary, many institutions have decided that it is not worth for them to work with homeowners.
With recent announcements that the reformed Mortgage Modification Program is on the way, modified to help people, featuring less restrictive qualification criteria, it is hard to believe, however, that it would kick in any time soon. It seems like the health care reform is the only thing on the legislative agenda today.
Homeowners Are Left Without Government Help To Defend Their Rights
What it means to many homeowners is that more foreclosures are on the way, and people would continue to lose their homes at an unheard before rate. It looks like the mortgage crisis is far from the end, as foreclosures continue to rise significantly in some states. There are some solutions homeowners may adopt to delay foreclosure and to fight for their homeownership rights.
There Are Proven Strategies In Place
Regardless of your income or employment status there are proven strategies that can be used to delay foreclosure, in many cases for several years. Loopholes in legislative acts allow you to buy yourself more time to stay in your home.
Most commonly used strategies to delay foreclosure include:
Preparing a well-documented Letter of Hardship;
Requesting and adjourning court hearings for years;
Using mistakes in housing papers to your advantage;
Filing a bankruptcy, if no other options are of help anymore.
Courts And Laws Are The Best Help In Delaying Foreclosure
Having your case reviewed by the court is one of the most effective strategies to delay foreclosure for years. Winning the court case is not the major idea; it is keeping the hearing going for as long as legally possible that would help you to stay in your home for years.
Finding errors in the housing contract is another effective way to fight for your rights. Doing such requires some knowledge of laws, and is typically performed with the help of a lawyer. This strategy has proven to be highly effective by many homeowners.
Properly implemented defense strategies outlined above are a great tool aimed to help homeowners to delay foreclosure for many years without the need to make mortgage payments at all. Most of these may be used without using any help of a lawyer and no money out of pocket.
