Before you consider a short sale, and before you let your house foreclose… have you exhausted all attempts to save your home? First, have you called your lender? Many lenders have programs to help homeowners. Sometimes a simple interest rate adjustment may help, sometimes a “short refinance” can be the solution. But whatever may help you, do you know there are FREE HUD approved housing counseling agenies to help?
