Mortgage

Lender





Don't ignore phone calls or mail from your mortgage lender. Contact your mortgage lender to discuss your circumstances as soon as you realize you are unable to make your mortgage payment. Although there's no guarantee that your lender will be able to provide you with a workout option, most are willing to explore every option.

Scams





Scam artists are taking advantage of homeowners who are desperate to save their home by promising, for a fee, to work with their lender and save their home.  Free resources are available through HUD-approved counselors.
