According to ABC news, more than 2.3 million American homeowners faced foreclosure proceedings last year, which was an 81 percent increase from 2007. And as of March 2009, about 5 million are currently in default, or at least one month behind, on their mortgage.
So does it have to be all "Doom and Gloom" or are there REAL solutions for homeowners facing this stress? The truth of the matter is there are several solutions to this problem, but it is very common for homeowners to not be aware of all their options. Foreclosure is NOT the only possible outcome. Neither is listing with a Realtor to try to sell fast. Neither is trying to get refinanced.
So if payments are behind on your Austin Texas home, what are your options?
In times like these, most homeowners believe they only have 4 options:
- List with a realtor (But do you have time to wait for it to sell? What if it doesn't sell? No Equity?)
- Refinance (Thousands of homeowners try only to be turned down because they are behind in payments, have less-than-perfect credit, or have little-to-no equity! And it would cost at least $4,000-5,000 to refinance the average Austin Texas home.)
- Reinstate your loan (Do you have the amount of $$$ your lender is asking for?)
- Do nothing and just let the bank foreclose on it (There are many better options, and they can be EASY, too! Plus, if the foreclosure sale is not enough to pay off the mortgage in full, the lender can still come after the borrower for the difference. Yikes!)

So, if your payments are behind, the last thing you'd want to do is NOTHING!...Sadly, when times are tough, many homeowners don't know what to do. Many, many houses have been foreclosed on in recent months because homeowners are not aware of the many alternatives to foreclosure or because:
- they expect some money will be found/earned/won/inherited/borrowed to make up back payments in time (Since this isn't likely, why not at least learn what the other, readily available options are to have a Plan B ready?)
- they're embarrassed by the situation. (PLEASE...Don't let this be the reason you don't do anything. Things happen in life that can make payments late, and RedBuysHouses.com understands that and wants to help!)
- they're afraid and unsure of who to trust (Again, there are trustworthy people out there who want to help...RedBuysHouses.com is an Accredited business with the Better Business Bureau and works with an experienced team of house-buyers who have helped THOUSANDS of homeowners during tough times!)
- their lenders don't return any of their phone calls. If they send in any partial payments, it is very common for the lender to send it back. (Dealing with lenders can be very frustrating and confusing!)
- they didn't think the bank would "really" foreclose on their house. (Remember, if you get behind on payments and do not do anything, your lender WILL foreclose on your house, even if you have a good relationship with them.)
- they were not aware that there was help available. (If you remember anything from this article, know that there is help available for you.)
