As the economy continues to stick in this slow down, people are still struggling to make it day to day, which is leading to an increase in the need for a short refi or short sell. This economy makes it especially challenging for homeowners to keep current on their mortgage and avoid foreclosure. In some cases, despite the best efforts, a homeowner may find themselves facing the possibility of foreclosure. There are things a homeowner can do to help prevent this from happening and protect their investment. Two options are a short refi or a short sell.

In the United States right now, foreclosure rates are higher than they’ve ever been. Homeowners are literally fleeing their homes and letting the banks deal with what they leave behind.

If you’re in a place where you think you’d be better off leaving your home because you can no longer afford your mortgage payment, you should first look into one of the many programs available to you! It IS possible to re-work your mortgage loan to better suit your financial needs.
