How Can I Stop Bank Foreclosure?
mageester asked:
This is a letter I wrote to my bank after hearing about a possible pending foreclosure. My loan is for $50,000 and I have an appraisal for $220,000. My credit has recently fallen to only fair and I do not think I can get another loan. Please let me know about anything I can do to stop the foreclosure:
Carl, I am a little worried. Todd Noel of Mortgage Modifiers, Inc called me today to set up a three way with Kelly at your bank so I could see about lowering my interest and monthly payments. During the conversation Kelly said my rate was lowered from 9 % to 5.2 % in January which adjusted my payments from $413.00 to $287.00 per month, but my home loan had been turned over to the bank’s attorney for foreclosure. I told Kelly that “I did not understand this because I have an email from Carl stating that as long as I keep my home loan within 90 days your bank would take no action to foreclose” (and you are “the chief loan officer”). I then asked Kelly how many days late my loan was and she said “72”. I thanked her for my loan adjustment rate and told her that I was going to make a home loan payment of $415.00 tomorrow (Friday) and completely catch up (January & February) by mid or the end of the February. She said “she was not my bank officer but thought my actions would stop foreclosure”. Additionally, I talk with Gerald on Monday and nothing was said about any foreclosure. He asked me for boat information, which I am in the process of getting for him.
I am trusting you are a man of your word and since I have a written agreement from you stating if I am not over 90 days late no home foreclosure action will be taken, I do not have to worry about foreclosure or litigation. I really appreciate your help and remain your friend, Rick Magee

Actually, if you have been over 30 days for a long period of time then you are in trouble with them as if you went over the 90 days. If you do get caught up they will postpone the foreclosure paper work but if you are really this bad off, I would really think about filing for bankruptcy protection to get rid of the additional debt that you have.
Your nice letter will do nothing to stop the foreclosure. And you are correct to be worried. They can start the foreclosure when you are one day late (no one does this but they can). So you don’t have an automatic 90 day grace period. And they can start adding attorney’s fees as soon as the foreclosure letter goes out. You don’t want that.
