When Monthly Payments Make You Feel Like Its All Crashing Down

If you are struggling to make your mortgage payments, you are probably feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders. There is nothing worse than feeling like there is no end in sight, or no way out. Not only does this affect your finances, but it affects you mentally and emotionally. This is a lot to take in, so whatever decisions you make at this point are critical to your future. If you are facing a foreclosure, then there are some things that you should be aware of.

If you are behind on your mortgage to the point you feel no recovery is possible, then looking at options can help you avoid foreclosure will help you recover your finances much more quickly. A short sale or a deed-in-lieu, are a few alternatives that can help you avoid the financial impact of a foreclosure.

The most important part of avoiding a foreclosure, is avoiding your credit score taking a huge plummet. Generally, by opting for a short sale, your credit may drop as little as 50 points, but no further than that. With a foreclosure, you are looking at taking a hit of 250 to 300 points. In addition, when your score is affected by a 50 point drop, you are looking at a recovery period of about 18 to 24 months. With a foreclosure, you are looking at a three year repair period, which can feel like an eternity. Time is always of the essence, especially when you are making important decisions and considerations with family in mind.

There is a system called Vantage Score, which encompasses all three major credit bureaus. You could have a perfect credit score, then when a foreclosure hits, your score could drop as much as 15 %. Again, the implications from a mental and emotional standpoint could be huge. It just depends on where you were at the time it happened. There are many who have been struggling for awhile and have just learned to deal with it. It isnt always so easy, and some have been severely shocked by the entire process and everything that has happened. It has been tough seeing people so emotionally distraught, and I cannot relate but I hurt for them. Every time, I wish I could just make it go away, and solve the problem instantly.
