Foreclosure Assistance, help is available
I have published this article before, but I came across MANY new resources that I wanted to add
f you are interested in a short sale, It’s important to utilize a Colorado Springs Real Estate Agent that specializes in Pre-foreclosures, Foreclosures, and Short Sales; and has a successful and ethical track record. Call Kathy Torline – Nordstrom, 719-287-1049.
When many Colorado Springs home owners are in financial trouble and not making their house payments, they go into denial. They are embarrassed, and they hope that the situation will go away. The problems usually won’t solve themselves. The fact is that the sooner a home owner faces up to the situation the better. There are options out there!
One of the first steps I do is to refer Colorado Springs home owners to some of the local and national hot-lines that are now available to help home owners. I want to make sure they are as educated as possible about their options before they decide to list their home as a short-sale. I also encourage them to talk to a lawyer and/or a tax accountant. A short sale may not be the right step for them; I want them to understand all of their options and pick the one that’s best for their situation.
Colorado Foreclosure Resources
One of the best resources around is the Foreclosure Hot-Line at 877-601-HOPE. There is also a local organization called The Pikes Peak Foreclosure Partnership at 719-444-8833.
National Foreclosure Resources
There is another national organization called Hope Now at 888-995-HOPE; and one of the great feature of this web site is links to many mortgage companies web sites. If you have a VA loan, the phone # is (719) or (303) 914-5650. If you have a HUD/FHA loan, the phone # is (303) 672-5216
