Out of Money and Facing Foreclosure? Help to Prevent Foreclosure in IL

out of money?

One of the most important things I learned in the Certified Distressed Property Expert course I took last week (CDPE) were ways to help troubled homeowners stay in their homes and to try to help get the word out that there ARE options for many people. 

A very shocking statistic I learned was that 7 out of 10 homeowners whose homes actually get foreclosed upon get to that point without any visible help.  There are so many good people that are experiencing financial difficulties at this time in our present economy, but many of the people who need help the most feel too ashamed or embarrassed to reach out for help.  As a CDPE, I am now trained to help do what I can to help people prevent foreclosure. For some people that qualify, a short sale may be the answer but I would advise not only talking to your tax and legal professionals, but also looking over the resources listed below.  If you would like to talk to me, I would welcome that opportunity to see if I can help you personally.

Here are some very useful and some NEW links to check out:

*US Treasury-Loans as low as 2%

*Obama administration's MHA, visit Making Home Affordable

*Find out if you are eligable for a re-finance or loan modification here

*Find a HUD counselor (for FHA loans) or talk directly to your mortgage company

*Find out if you have a Fannie Mae mortgage here

*Find out if you have a Freddie Mac mortgage here

*Freddie Mac- more help to avoid foreclosure

*Freddie Mac-tips on working with YOUR lender to avaoid foreclosure

*Foreclosure prevention workshops

*Mortgage Bankers Association Home Loan Learning Center and Foreclosure Prevention Resource Center

Please keep in mind that the information available is changing constantly with new programs and updates.  And don't be too embarrassed to reach out for help.  You are not alone and you owe it to yourself and your family and your credit rating to do all you can to see if you are qualified for any of the available options before letting a foreclosure happen to you.

Five Ways to Wow Buyers

  These days, tax credits and high housing inventory make it a buyers' market. If you're a seller, don't despair. There are a variety of renovations that can help make your home stand out. Many buyers look at numerous homes when shopping for a house; so enhancing your home to make it more memorable is vital and increases the chances of a successful sale.
      Clearing clutter, taking down personal photos, applying a fresh coat of paint, making minor repairs, and keeping a pleasant aroma are all basic techniques to make your home more appealing. But there are a few other

Mortgage Rates
U.S. averages as of March 26, 2009:

30 yr. fixed:   4.85%
15 yr. fixed:   4.58%
1 yr. adj:        4.85%
<!-- <B>30 yr. jumbo:  6.98%</B>-->

creative enhancements that you can do to wow buyers without emptying your wallet. The results not only attract more attention, but also paint a picture of a well-cared-for home.

Thinking of Making a Move?

Let me help you to be successful in the current market....





Where Housing is Headed

     We received an important indicator of where housing is headed last month, when new mortgage applications for home purchases and refinances suddenly surged as they hadn't in months.
      Applications for FHA loans to buy houses were up by 10.4 percent. And overall home purchase applications jumped by 7.1 percent.
      Meanwhile mortgage interest rates dropped to their second lowest level in nearly two decades, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Thirty year fixed rates averaged 4.96 percent and fifteen year rated dropped to just 4.5 percent.
      Why's this important? New financing applications to buy homes obviously point to rising purchase contracts and closed sales in the months ahead. They also suggest that prices have hit a level in many markets that is attracting once-hesitant buyers off the sidelines.
      There's still another factor that's likely at work here as well: Congress's CONTINUED >>>




What You Need to Know
to Buy a Home Today


     Don't let a sluggish economy get you down. There are reasons to shop for personal items-including a new home. I recently saw an advertisement for a new car that said you could return the car in the first year if you lose your job. While there may not be that incentive for homes yet, some other perks might give you reason to start your housing search.
      If you can afford to buy, consider making homeownership a goal this year, especially if you haven't owned a principal residence in three years prior to buying. The new stimulus package sweetens the deal for homebuyers who purchase a residence on or after January 1, 2009, and before December 1, 2009. The incentive is for first-time homebuyers who remain in their home for at least three years. It provides a credit for 10 percent of the home purchase price, up to an $8,000 limit. The credit can be taken on your 2008 or 2009 tax return.
      If you close on a home after the April 15 tax deadline, you can apply for an extension provided that you close on your home before the extension deadline of October 15. If you're extra speedy and have already filed your 2008 return, don't worry - you can file an amendment to claim the credit. You have three years to CONTINUED >>>

RE/MAX Times Article

 

Earth Hour Chicago Debra Kukulski

I just wanted to post this article since it will not be on the Re/Max International site any longer after today and I posted a link here to the Earth Hour atrticle the other day. Re/Max is re-vamping the entire Re/Max site this weekend and I was told the link I posted earlier will not longer be working.

So, here goes, with gratitude and express written permission from the author, Deborah Ball, RE/MAX Times Associate Editor, of course:-)

Affiliates Looking Forward to Earth Hour on March 28

By Deborah Ball, RE/MAX Times Associate Editor

 
 
It's only one hour, but it's also a worldwide show of unity.

On March 28, many RE/MAX Affiliates will join millions of people around the world for Earth Hour. Everyone involved will turn off their lights at 8:30 p.m. in the local time zone.

Learn about Earth Hour and participate.

To date, 1,760 cities, towns and municipalities in 80 countries have pledged participation.

RE/MAX of Southern Africa, a corporate supporter of the initiative in South Africa, launched a public relations campaign on its Web site to educate Associates and consumers about Earth Hour.

"It's part of our corporate duty to promote something like this and educate our agents about it," says Assistant Regional Director Adrian Goslett. "In South Africa, we have numerous athletes, celebrities and politicians involved in the awareness campaign. It helps draw attention to the global climate."

Goslett adds that the average monthly utility bill in South Africa equates to more than $350 (U.S.).

Organizers of the event hope to get 1 billion people involved and are asking participants to mark their involvement by registering online with a "Vote Earth." Those tallies will then be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen later this year. The meeting determines official government policies for combating global warming.

Individual RE/MAX Associates are also participating and spreading the word to clients and colleagues. Debra Kukulski, a Sales Associate with RE/MAX Unlimited Northwest in Crystal Lake, Ill., wrote about Earth Hour on her ActiveRain blog and encouraged others to take part.

"Last year, I received a positive response to the e-mails and blogs," Kukulski says. "It's an easy way to make an impact, even if it's a small one.

"Something is better than nothing. People are becoming more eco-conscious, and they're attracted to agents and businesses that share their views."

Comments

I was very excited to see this article on Mainstreet. Most New Zealanders are huge supporters of helping to make our world a safer place for future generations and Earth Hour is being widely publicised through the media here. Good on you RE/MAX for taking up such an important message - just another example of the quality of the RE/MAX brand/family. I shall be thinking of my international colleagues as I sit in the dark sipping a glass of local pinot noir at 8:30 p.m. Saturday night.
