Have you ever heard the word Forbearance?Forbearance is when your mortgage servicer or lender allows you to temporarily pay your mortgage at a lower payment or pause paying your mortgage.  You are not off the hook for the payment you will have to repay any missed payments, the payment reduction or the paused payments back later. Mortgage forbearance can last one month, a few months or even up to 12 months, depending on your situation, your mortgage and what your lender allows.Can having a Forbearance hurt your credit?Here is the short answer.  A lender can report a forbearance to the credit companies, but typically it will agree not to report any missed payments as long as you follow the terms you agreed to with the lender. The forbearance shouldn't affect your credit score and would ce... 04/15/2020

You've probably heard that phrase more than once.  A contingency is like having a "what if scenario": What if I made an offer and my other house doesn't sell, I can't afford 2 mortgage payments?  What if the house doesn't appraise for the contract price? What if I find out there is a leak in the foundation after I've already signed the contract?  What if the interest rate goes higher than I can afford Don't panic...That's what a contingency is for.  It is a clause in the contract that says if for example You find out the house is really a money pit during your home inspection, you can walk away from that contract and not lose any earnest money you may have put down on that contract.  The contingency is an insurance policy of sorts that protects you for the just in case you are most conc... 03/14/2019

This Elliotts Point home at 118 Ferry Rd., NE, Fort Walton Beach, Florida was approved as a VA Compromise Short Sale. This was not an easy property to sell, even though the short sale approval was easy! The home had multiple active roof leaks and and the roof was covered with tarp and sand bags. The roof design was itself defective. There was aluminum and cloth-covered wiring.  The costs to repair the roof and electrical system were about $16,000.  The home needed other repairs. The only straightforward way to ensure a buyer could close after short sale approval, was to get a cash buyer.  Sure, there are mortgages available for homes that need repair, such as FHA 203K, but they are complex and closing is not guaranteed, especially with a fast time line and closing requirement after shor... 02/19/2019
