A Message From Bob . . . .
.
Over the years I have had the opportunity to personally counsel
many homeowners in distress. The first question I am always asked is, "I
have been talking to my bank, and I'm getting nowhere. Where do I start?"
For more than 30 years my answer has been the same. If you
attempt to resolve your delinquency problems with the first person you talk
to at the bank you will be in serious trouble. You must know
who to speak with, and what to say. For those who do not take this
advice the consequences are likely to be devastating. The "Guide
To Delinquency Prevention And Foreclosure Workout" will guide you to the
person they won't let you talk to. But, most important, it will shepard
you through the foreclosure bureaucracy with the correct plan of action.
If you are not talking with the right person you will waste many
frustrating hours uselessly pleading your case as you get closer to the court
house steps. And, if this has not yet happened to you . .
. it will. One last piece of advice.
Never pay anyone to speak for you. Good
luck.

"The Guide To Delinquency Prevention And Foreclosure
Workout"
A recent MSN Money news story commented on the foreclosure
process by saying,"The borrower is often stymied by the lender's bureaucracy
because they do not understand the state and federal laws which protect them",
and further warned, "Most people are never talking with the right
person, and they do not understand that foreclosure is a negotiating process.
The better you understand the workout rules, the better your chances
of obtaining foreclosure relief." Jack Pitmann
of Sentinel Watch said this. "Even though the lender is
guided by specific rules for loan mitigation your success is directly related
to how you present and negotiate your case." Pitmann concluded by saying.
"Use an attorney only if necessary, and never use a third party
consultant."
The Property Preservation Forum has provided
real estate mortgage and foreclosure assistance since 1952. The "Guide
to Delinquency Prevention and Foreclosure Workout" was first published
on the Internet in 1998. While the Guide outlines the loan mitigation
and foreclosure workout policies for all conventional loans originated in
the United States, the reader will find that it also covers the mitigation
policies of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the Veterans
Administration (VA).
This "Guide to Delinquency Prevention and
Foreclosure Workout" has been prepared in a manner following the Federal
National Mortgage Association's policies and procedures, and includes the
forms and checklist that places you in control of presenting and negotiating
an approved workout solution. Do not delay. Failure to initiate
an early response can result in more costly relief alternatives, and will
ultimately accelerate the foreclosure process. We wish to acknowledge
the loan mitigation administrators representing some of the largest mortgage
lenders in the country for their assistance.
A PLAN OF
ACTION
"The Guide To Delinquency Prevention And Foreclosure
Workout" has been drafted in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Federal National Mortgage Association's (FNMA,"Fannie
Mae"). FNMA policies are recognized and implemented by virtually every
mortgage lender in the United States, and has operated under Congressional
Charter since 1947. The "The Guide To Delinquency Prevention
And Foreclosure Workout" puts you inside the mortgage bureaucracy providing
you with a decisive plan to resolve delinquency and foreclosure pursuant
to Federal law and the rules which govern
loss mitigation (foreclosure) procedures in your state.
The "Guide To Delinquency Prevention And Foreclosure
Workout" is not a general information publication, but a strategically
prepared plan of action to stop the foreclosure process that
may be easily and quickly implemented by anyone.
You will be informed of
your rights under the law, the relief to which you are entitled and
the means to act aggressively in defense of your property rights. Do
not delay. Relief is available for up to two years in properly qualifying
cases. You will be advised of the rules and procedures by which the
loan administrator will assist you in making a determination for your case,
and you will be prepared with the critical steps in negotiating a workout
plan. The Guide also includes the phone number and locations of government
agencies prepared to offer foreclosure assistance. Most
important, you will be told how to reach the person that will actually
make the final decision in your case. You can begin the process
of avoiding foreclosure in less than 30 minutes by following the simple
step-by-step plan outlined in this Guide.
Caution!
YOU COULD
BE FACED WITH SERIOUS STATE AND FEDERAL TAX LIABILITIES IF YOU SELL YOUR
HOME, OR AGREE TO AN IMPROPERLY PREPARED MODIFICATION AGREEMENT. REAL
ESTATE AGENTS, LOAN BROKERS AND LENDERS ARE NOT LIKELY TO DISCLOSE THE COMPELLING
FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCES FOR SOME OF THE WORKOUT SOLUTIONS THEY PROPOSE.
PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS WHEN

MORTGAGE OFFERS AND INVESTORS SEEKING TO EXPLOIT THE MISFORTUNE OF OTHERS.
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR RIGHTS, OBLIGATIONS AND
THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY WORKOUT AGREEMENT. CONTRARY TO ANYTHING YOU HAVE
BEEN TOLD, YOUR LENDER WANTS TO WORK DIRECTLY WITH
YOU. AVOID ANY COMPANY THAT DISCOURAGES YOU FROM TAKING THE
INITIATIVE ON YOUR OWN BEHALF. THEREFORE, PLAN CAREFULLY BEFORE ELECTING
TO USE THE SERVICES OF A FORECLOSURE WORKOUT CONSULTANT, REFINANCE, OR SELL
YOUR HOME.
