| Tips For Avoiding Foreclosure By Jeff Lakie |
Foreclosure can be a devastating change in your life. If you miss your mortgage payments, you could be in danger
of foreclosure: you'll have to move out of the home you have worked so hard to own.
Here are some ways of avoiding foreclosure.
>> Set up your mortgage payment on direct deposit from your bank account and arrange an overdraft, just in
case you have a tight month.
>> An emergency account is a good idea, but not very practical for most people. The money they save in that
account is often better spent on the necessities of life. Set up an emergency account but without any of your own
money; do this by arranging a personal line of credit or borrowing account which will cost you very little if you don't
use it, but if you need it it's there and can be substantial.
>> Maintain a good credit rating. If you miss a payment or two and someone is considering bringing a
foreclosure judgment against you, they may be less likely to do so if you have shown that this is a singular incident
and quite uncommon to your typical prompt payment. On the other hand, if you miss your bill payments on a regular
basis, they may not give you the second chance you want.
>> If an emergency strikes, instead of paying your mortgage with your credit card or going to those high-priced
loan places, try asking a trusted friend or family member to provide you with a low interest rate bridge loan to help
you through your tough spot. Be sure to a pay them back promptly.

>> If you find that
foreclosure is imminent,
your best hope is for a
foreclosure sale, the
proceeds of which will wipe
out your judgment. Spend
some money to beautify
your home with a paint job
and a thorough cleaning,
which will increase what
you get for your home and
could minimize or eliminate
the difference that you'll
have to pay.
