Antioch CA – Many people think a hardship is mainly based on financial matters and that is not necessarily the case.

Anything that makes it difficult for you to keep on making a mortgage payment might qualify to be a hardship.

One thing that the bank doesn’t want to see is a homeowner who seems to be looking for a way out simply because the home is not worth the amount the owner paid for it.

Being upside-down is one of the qualifications for a short sale but a bank may not grant a short sale solely on that basis.

If your life looks unchanged since you took the loan, the bank might say you can afford to stay in your home at your present payment level. If your situation has changed, here are some examples that may qualify for a hardship:

1. Unemployment.

2. Reduced income. Furloughs, a new job, a partner’s loss of a job, or a pay cut are examples.

3. Illness or medical emergency.

4. A Job transfer. (voluntary or involuntary)

5. Divorce, separation or marital difficulties.

6. Exotic mortgage terms (an adjustable-rate loan that adjusts and you cannot afford the new payment.)

7. Military service.

8. Death in the family.

9. Incarceration.

10. Increased expenses and excessive debt.

11. Unexpected repairs or home maintenance.

Important Notice

Shonn Thompson, Better Homes Realty, and the Stop Foreclosure Institute are not affiliated in any way, shape, or form with the government. Our services have not been reviewed or endorse by the government or your lender. Most lenders willingly work with agents on short sales. Why?

Because most short sales are beneficial to a lender. If you accept our offer to help you on a short sale, your lender may not agree to a short sale or to modify your loan. We do offer a loan modification kit.

However, the likelihood of negotiating a modification is like everything else in life. It takes work and persistence to convince your lender to modify your loan. No matter what you or we do, your lender may not approve a loan modification.

We do not recommend that you stop paying your mortgage, because this will cause damage to your credit and could cause you to lose your home. Because we know avoiding foreclosure is so important to any homeowner, we recommend that you speak with the appropriate legal or tax advisor before making any decision.

This is not intended as legal, technical, or tax advice. Please speak with a licensed professional before making any decision. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed as of the date of writing.

You have the option to reject a short sale or loan modification from your lender if it does not meet your approval. If you decide not to go thru with the short sale, then you do not have to pay us our fee. We normally make a real estate sales commission for helping you on a short sale.
