FHA Workout options for distressed homeowners

At the onset of our current economic recession, the majority of distressed homeowners having difficulty paying their mortgage came from the subprime sector where borrowers were facing adjustable interest rates. As the markets have continued to worsen and unemployment/wage reductions have increased, these defaults have expanded to include all types of mortgages, including FHA. However, one of the benefits of an FHA mortgage is that there are many workout options in place to assist borrowers.

The following are just a few of the workout options that the Department of Housing and Urban Development (federal agency that regulates and insures FHA mortgages – HUD) has in place:

Special Forbearance
Loan Modification
FHA’s Home Affordable Modification
Partial Claim
Pre-Foreclosure Sale Program
Deed-In-Lieu of Foreclosure

For details and eligibility guidelines on these programs, please read the complete post: FHA Workout Options
