Foreclosure Help

By
Real Estate Agent with American Dream Colorado

I think that we as real estate licensee would need to help people to understand that there are more options available other than Foreclosure and Bankruptcy. I think that giving them the Foreclosure Hotline 1-877-601-HOPE (in Colorado)  is a good start. We are not consultants, we are just a resource for the information. And because there are still so many "predators" there who pray on people in this situation, we need to steer them away from them by giving the legit source. I am sure that all the states have their Foreclosure Hotlines, so use it.

I am a Home Retention Consultant.  If there is a way out, I try to make the client aware of options.  I do not provide legal advice nor do I advise them in any way.  However, I do leave information for them to make decisions.  If, after deciding that they do not have alternatives, then they can "take the bull by the horns" and make an informed decision.  It lets me sleep at night.  (Plus I volunteer at Habitat for Humanity, and that makes me feel a little better, too.)

Irina, you are right, people should be provided the information and resources they need to make an informed decision.
