Vegas Foreclosure
what are the repercussions of foreclosure?
How bad would it be on my credit and life to just let the house foreclose. How long can I stay before the bank throws me out? I’m spending every dime I make trying to keep up with an a.r.m. I cant refi cuz the market is dead and my house in las vegas is worth less than what i paid for it new only 2 years ago! My credit is shot now cuz I’m spending so much on the house. It jumped from $2,200 to $3,500 overnight. I also have other expences to keep up with such as 2 small children, food. power bill, insurance etc. I’ve already given up my car and every other luxury I could think of. The house is beautiful inside and out however it seems the nieghborhood is turning GHETTO! I want out, badly. Nothing is working and I’m just getting further behind. Beleave me, I work everyday, no vacations, no life. How bad will it be if I just gave up? I’ve paid alot into this house and won’t get anything back but it’ll stop the hemoraging of money Option One Mortgage is taking. Please HELP!
We are in the SAME BOAT! House is worth LESS now than our last re-fi, which of course was a 2 year arm, and now in les than a year WE have to re-fi again, with CRAPPY credit! whew. Anyway, this what I have learned so far:
Your lender does NOT want to foreclose on you, it takes alot of time, money, manpower to foreclose – on their end. So, talk to your lender. They are just people – maybe even in the same situation as you – tell them your situation, and they will work with you someway. Ours just asked us if we could make the current late payment over 3 months – we of couse said yes, but I don’t know if we can.
the other option is the Short Sale thing. Contact a realtor, see if they will work on a flat fee – say 10,000 total for buying and selling agent. Say you want to do a Quick sale, or Short Sale. They will put it on the market, for a “cheap” price, sell it quick, and your lender is acutally the seller. They will have to OK the price. They should accept a lower price than what you owe, so they don’t have to go into foreclosure procedures.
I’ve heard we should avoid forclosure as much as possible. It basically guarantees you will not get another mortgage any time.
We are basically just staying in contact with our lender, and leaning on that short sale thing soon!!! Good luck my friend!!
