Avoiding Foreclosure: The Best Options to Avoid Losing Your Home
For most Americans, buying a home isn’t just the most expensive purchase they’ll ever make – it can also be a financial balancing act, mainly if they have mortgaged themselves to the max, as many first-time buyers often do. Buying a House is one of the biggest decisions most people will make during their lives, that’s for sure.
Many of these homeowners hope to raise their family there, putting down real and substantial roots and making this new house, at least for them – a natural home for years to come.
Nobody in their right mind imagines that one day they will leave the house due to circumstances and events beyond their control.
What are Your Best Options to Avoid Foreclosure?
Here are your best options to avoid foreclosure. Remember, you need to be proactive from the outset.
1. Reinstate Your Loan
If you have enough cash available, you can reinstate your loan by making up all the missed payments, including principal and interest, plus fees and expenses.
If the state law doesn’t grant the right to reinstate, many mortgages and deeds of trust still provide this right as part of the agreement. Speak to your mortgage servicer without delay.
2. Repayment Plan
You may qualify for a repayment plan, where you arrange to make up missed payments over a set period and stay current on your ongoing payments.
3. Forbearance Agreement
A “forbearance agreement” is when the lender permits you to make reduced mortgage payments for a limited time. Forbearance for 3-6 months is typical. You will need to prove that your inability to pay is strictly short-term.
4. Loan Modification
A is an agreement between the borrower and the lender to adjust the loan terms, usually to agree to a lower monthly payment. Typically, a modification involves:
- Reducing the interest rate
- Adding any overdue amounts to the loan balance, and
- Extending the loan term, e.g., from 30 years to 40 years.
5. Refinance
If agreed, you may be able to refinance the remaining loan amount at a better rate and pay off the existing balance. All states allow you to “redeem” your mortgage by refinancing until the foreclosure sale.
However, you still have options even when you feel close to losing your home. But to make them work for you, you have to move fast.

We Buy Homes
- Retirement: After a life of hard work and dedication to the family. Children are adults and live far away from home. The old house has become too big and too quiet. The time has come to sell it and move to a smaller place.
- Second Home – A rental home as an additional income investment has, over time, become a burden. Misuse of the house by tenants and high repair costs could force them to sell.
- An inherited property that requires repair and is causing problems among family members. It is also a factor when deciding to sell.

Regardless of why you are selling your home, keep in mind that the sales process requires expenses and time and is incredibly stressful.

Run Down
No matter what the physical condition of the property is, we buy it. You don’t need to put any money into fixing up your house. Does the carpet or flooring need to be replaced? Water damage? Mold?

It may happen that relatives do not agree on the time, expenses, and taking care of the house. Sometimes it becomes a practical solution to sell the property, but that also is a decision that generates disagreement; it could be that some of the family members approve of investing money in-home repairs, and others may consider it a waste of time and dollars.
