How Mortgage Relief Options Work

Loan Modification - Short Sale - Deed In Lieu - Forbearance

Forbearance -Temporarily suspends all or a portion of your monthly payment, followed by a formal plan using another option listed here to return your account to a current status. Your hardship is expected to be short term in nature, or you know that you will be able to pay a particular amount on a specific future date and continue with your payments from that point forward.

Repayment Plan - Adds a portion of past due amounts to your regular monthly payment until your account is current. Your hardship is expected to be short term in nature, and may even be over, and you have the ability to make an increased payment for a short period of time.


Partial Claim - Returns your account to a current status using funds from your mortgage insurer or guarantor. Your mortgage is insured and your hardship is short term. Subject to mortgage insurer or guarantor approval.

Modification - Makes your payment more affordable by permanently changing one or more of the terms of your original note and mortgage. Delinquent amounts can sometimes be added back into the loan balance. You can afford a reasonable payment that is less than your current payment and/or you don't have enough cash to bring your loan current.

Assumption - Transfers title to a credit-qualified buyer, even if your loan is non-assumable. You can not make any payment but want to avoid foreclosure.

Short Sale - Allows you to sell your home for its current value, even if it is worth less than what you owe when you can not make the payments but want to avoid foreclosure.

Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure - Transfers title to the property back to lender to satisfy the amount you owe. You can not make the payment but want to avoid foreclosure and you have had your home listed for sale for at least 90 days. This option is reserved for the most extreme situations and is subject to investor approval.
