Being stuck in a foreclosure situation is a real pain in the you know what! Every year thousands of people and homeowners fall into this trap where they hide behind closed doors hoping that the debt collectors would just go away. The truth is you can indeed make them go away- but only if you take decisive action as early as possible.
In fact, it's a major tragedy that many folks ultimately foreclose on their homes which could have prevented if they owned up to the situation and followed through with some basic actions. Many of them simply sit on their hands and hope for a miracle. Although that might work in some cases, you still ought to give it a good ol college try- because at this point you've got nothing to lose for trying.
The very first thing that anyone facing this difficult situation should do is contact their loaning bank or credit union to see what can be done. Here's a big secret for you, your debtors actually want to help you! They have a lot of things swimming on their minds as it is and it's a huge hassle for them if you go into foreclosure- they'd much rather get you out of it. It's simply good business sense.
In many cases, especially if you catch onto the early stages of this process, your lending institution representative will offer help so that you can avoid foreclosure- by a long shot. Until this first step is done, do not work with private individuals claiming to be investors who want to get the property off your hands. Not all of these guys are scam artists, but if you do decide to work on selling off your home or negotiate a deal with a third party, it's advisable to have a knowledgeable real estate attorney with you during discussions.
