Are you eligible? That is the hot topic for many homeowners in default.

Whether you are eligible or not, the key is to be a VOLUNTARY Participant in this process. Be proactive and reach out for help before it is too late. You have options, whether its a short sale, modification or deed in leiu! Too often we find many people are inactive up until there is an Auction date on your property and then its too late. Do not, I repet DO NOT pay someone in advance to do a modfication or refinance. 9 out of 10 times if you have pay before service it is probably a scam. So be careful.
