Forbearance

Do you qualify for a mortgage forbearance agreement? Did you miss a few payments but your financial situations is now improving?

Every lender and personal situation is unique, but you may be allowed to make-up missed payments and avoid foreclosure of your Tampa Bay home.

A forbearance or repayment plan may be negotiated with the lender to allow repayment of back-payments over an extended period of time.

A repayment plan, called a “Special Mortgage Forbearance Agreement” may be available through your lender’s Loss Mitigation department.

Forbearance agreements allow a borrower to temporarily pay less than the full amount of the mortgage payment during the forbearance period.

The outstanding mortgage payments are added at the back of the mortgage. These written agreements allow you to delay payments and reinstate a loan that is a minimum of three payments overdue. Contact your lender to learn about potential terms and availability.

For an overview of the options, contact the Bohannons at Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate in Tampa, Florida.
