Tayloir Made Realty is here to help you identify and implement the best possible solution and to help you avoid foreclosure. Following a thorough analysis of your situation by our specialists, we will work with you and your lender to come up with the appropriate solution for your particular situation. Tayloir Made Realty will diligently work on your behalf to negotiate and secure a fair agreement with your lender.

Quite understandably, many distressed homeowners simply give up and give in to the foreclosure process, often without being fully aware of the options available to them. Depending on your particular situation, the following options may be available to you:

* Short Sale
* Deed-in-lieu

Also known as a real estate short pay-off or a pre-foreclosure workout, a short sale is an agreement with a lender to accept less than the amount owed by a borrower via a sale of the property to a third party. With this agreement, the lender releases the borrower from the mortgage, thereby preventing foreclosure.
Also known as voluntary conveyance, with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure the borrower voluntarily transfers title back to the lender to avoid foreclosure. The lender then releases the borrower from the mortgage and repossesses the property.
Keep Your Home Options

* Loan Modification
* Reinstatement
* Forebearance
* Repayment Plan

A Loan Modification is a change in one or more of the terms of a borrower's loan, and results in a payment that the borrower can afford.
With a reinstatement, the homeowner brings the mortgage current by making up for all missed payments and paying any late fees and penalties.
Typically, when foreclosure is a result of a temporary loss of income, the lender may agree to a forebearance wherein they will a llow the homeowner to delay payments for a short period or negotiate a payment plan to make up for missed payments over the course of several months. The lender may also agree to some combination between reinstatement and forbearance, enabling the homeowner to delay payment for a short period and then bring payments current by a specific date.
A repayment plan enables the homeowner to submit payment of a portion of the past-due amount and penalties with future payments until the past-due amount and penalties are paid-off.

Also known as a real estate short pay-off or a pre-foreclosure workout, a short sale is an agreement with a lender to accept less than the amount owed by a borrower via a sale of the property to a third party. With this agreement, the lender releases the borrower from the mortgage, thereby preventing foreclosure.

Minimize damaging impact to credit: Foreclosure can remain on your credit for up to seven years while a short sale usually gets reported as a "settled debt" and is significantly less damaging. With a short sale, your FICO score will not be as negatively impacted as it would be with a foreclosure, and you will be able to get into a new home much sooner as well.

Minimize financial exposure/liability: In many foreclosure situations, the lender will ultimately sell the property at a significant discount once they foreclose and repossess the property. The homeowner can then be financially liable to the lender. President Bush passed an Act called Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007, whereby in certain circumstances, a homeowner does not have to pay federal income tax on debt forgiven on a loan secured by a qualified principal residence via a short sale, foreclosure, deed in lieu, loan workout or short refinance where the loan amount was reduced and forgiven in order for the homeowner to keep the property.

In order to be eligible for a short sale, a homeowner must be able to prove to the lender that they are a victim to a "hardship" and are therefore unable to continue making payments on their mortgage.
A hardship situation is one that is the result of some extenuating circumstance that forced the borrower into a position where they can no longer afford their mortgage payments. While every situation is unique, some common examples of hardship include:
• Unemployment or loss of primary income source
• Inability to work due to health crisis
• Mounting medical expenses
• Employment relocation
• Failure of business
• Bankruptcy
• Death of spouse or significant other
• Divorce or separation

In addition to the homeowner proving hardship, lenders require a specific set of supporting financial documents to consider a short sale. Contact Tayloir Made Realty today and one of our specialists will help you get started.

Can the process be expedited if I am imminently facing foreclosure or an auction date
has been set?

Every short sale situation is unique and follows its own timeline. Typically a short sale is completed within one to four months from the time we have a complete short sale package ready to present to the lender. Having said that, we have successfully negotiated a short sale in as little as two weeks. Timing depends on how quickly we can begin negotiating with your lender. If you are imminently facing foreclosure or even if an auction date has already been set, the process can certainly be expedited and we have even had lenders postpone the auction date. Please contact us today for a free consultation with one of our specialists so that we can be of immediate assistance to you.

Foreclosure can remain on your credit for up to seven years while a short sale usually gets reported as a"settled debt" and is significantly less damaging or paid in full" depending on your lender. With a short sale, your FICO score will not be as negatively impacted as it would be with a foreclosure, and you will be able to get into a new home much sooner as well.
Tayloir Made Realty is not a credit counseling agency, but credit experts say that a foreclosure will typically reduce a borrower's FICO score by 250 to 280 points and the borrower would usually need to wait more than 36 months before a lender will offer any kind of interest rate that makes sense. A short sale, on the other hand, will typically only result in an 80 to 100 point hit to the borrower's credit and a significantly shorter waiting period before buying another home, usually about 18 months or less.

As with all foreclosures, there are potential tax and liability considerations when doing a short sale. The main difference depends on your residence in terms of primary residence or secondary residence. With a short sale, however, these potential tax and other liabilities are typically less frequent and less severe.

Tax ramifications: After completing the short sale your lender may decide to issue you a 1099 for the difference between the price your home sold for and what you owed, and you can later be taxed by the IRS on this amount as income. However this form of action is rarely forced. It is important to note that if specific criteria are met, the IRS may release the borrower from this tax liability. Furthermore, Congress has passed legislation that would eliminate this taxation of so-called "income" due to cancellation of debt. The Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 simply states that all short sale participants short saling their PRIMARY residence will not be 1099 or incur any deficiency judgements.

Lender recourse: In some states and with certain types of loans, lenders can pursue a court decision called a "deficiency judgment" making you personally liable for the remaining amount owed to them above the short sale price. In some cases, the lender may ask you to pay a portion of the difference back in the form of an IOU.

The lender has sole discretion whether to pursue a deficiency judgment in those instances when a deficiency judgment is permitted. Unlike other loss mitigation companies that offer "basic" services, at Tayloir Made Realty as a matter of course, we diligently apply ourselves to every short sale case with the goal of negotiating with the lender to eliminate a deficiency judgment, minimize your tax liability, and to consider your debt as settled. The Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 makes this possible..

In most distressed mortgage situations, foreclosure is a last resort for all parties involved. Simply put, both the homeowner and the lender usually want to avoid foreclosure at all costs. That is why lenders have come up with various alternatives to foreclosure, which they are typically very motivated to pursue prior to going to foreclosure.
A short sale gives the lender the ability to cut its losses upfront thereby avoiding the expense and time of a foreclosure and potentially greater losses. Lenders want to make loans, they do not want to be in the business of owning and managing real estate. Whether the lender chooses to go through with a foreclosure or agree to a short sale, they are taking a loss either way, but in many cases they would take less of a loss with a short sale and resolve the matter in a comparatively shorter time frame. In nearly every case, a short sale offers a better return on the lender's investment than a foreclosure does.

Tayloir Made Realty works as independent third-party loss mitigators. It is because of our objectivity and neutrality that homeowners and their lenders can count on us to be an impartial driver of the loss mitigation process. Tayloir Made Realty stands apart from the crowd because we strive to equally serve all parties to the transaction, and affect a win-win outcome for all.

We firmly believe that just as most borrowers use a professional to initially get into a mortgage, it is in their best interest to do so if they are in the unfortunate position that they need to get out of a mortgage. At best, you only get one shot to negotiate your way out of foreclosure, and while it is certainly possible to negotiate with the lender yourself, it is highly unadvisable.

Most lenders' loss mitigation departments are understaffed, and the overworked loss mitigators are usually overloaded with all parties vying for their attention. Unfortunately, the loss mitigator can be very difficult to get a hold of, and when you finally do get through, you have very little time with which to make your case. Furthermore, the added stress of foreclosure in itself makes it difficult for a homeowner to effectively and calmly negotiate their way out of foreclosure.

Because we work with all lenders and represent homeowners from all across the country, and since we specialize in loss mitigation, we understand how to collect, prepare, and effectively present the information that lenders require to seriously consider a loss mitigation solution such as a short sale. We have excellent working relationships with the lenders' loss mitigation departments and we will leverage our network and expertise to help you solve your problem. Please contact us today for a free consultation with one of our specialists so that we can be of immediate assistance to you.

Tayloir Made Realty can still help negotiate a short sale with your lender even if you file for bankruptcy protection. However, in our experience, bankruptcy is usually employed only as a last resort in a foreclosure situation it is deemed as a temporary solution & not permannet. Typically, filing for bankruptcy only temporarily delays the foreclosure process (or in legal terminology, it provides a "stay"). Eventually the property is sold to satisfy debts to creditors. We strongly urge you to seek the advice of a bankruptcy attorney if you are considering this option.
