If foreclosure proceedings were initiated, and that is all that is claimed on the credit report, then the bank cannot change the report. If the credit report shows that the foreclosure took place, however, the bank would have to correct that. Similarly, a credit card company won't take back any delinquent payments reporting just because the card was paid off. They are legally obligated to report accurately.

If foreclosure proceedings are started but the loan was reinstated will it show negatively on a credit report?

Yes. Foreclosure proceedings do not begin in most states until you are a number of months behind in payments. That will negatively impact your credit report. I had foreclosure proceedings begin on my home, but I was able to short sell the home before it went to auction. On my credit report it says, "loan was paid for less than amount owed".


What is the meaning of reinstatement of loan?

This means that foreclosure proceedings have started due to a substantial delinquency of the loan. Once these proceedings start, the bank will no longer accept any funds except for the total amount that you owe. If you pay the total outstanding debt then you have "reinstated" the loan, which means you avoid the foreclosure. Even though proceedings may have started, it won't show on your credit report as a foreclosure unless the home was sold at an auction.


If loan was paid in full prior to foreclosure. how do i get it off of my credit report?

If the Foreclosure proceeding had already begun it will remain on the credit and should show a zero balance. But it will continue to show the Foreclosure was in effect at that time. If it is still showing a balance contact the credit bureau to have the information updated. You must have proof in hand.


How far behind in your mortgage can you get before your mortgage company starts foreclosure proceedings?

It usually depends on a Mortgage Bank and also on the individuals previous credit ratings.


If the lender starts the foreclosure process but isn't completed should it show on your credit report?

It wouldn't show up as a completed foreclosure, but it would show up. It would say "foreclosure started" or "foreclosure initiated" or something to that effect.

On my credit report it says paid closed foreclosure proceedings started but it didn't foreclose house sold. Signed the papers to the new owners and that was it Is it saying foreclosed or almost?

It seems like it's saying that the loan was in foreclosure but it was closed due to being paid before it could go through. That's how that statement on your credit report should be read. Without seeing it right in front of me, though, I can't be 100% sure, but that's what it sounds like.


Could a pending foreclosure cause a bank loan to be declined?

Yes, if one got the loan after foreclosure proceedings began. When banks make credit decisions, they want to consider as much up-to-date information as possible. If a foreclosure is coming up but is not on the credit report, the bank may grant the loan. Once the foreclosure shows up on the report, the bank will conduct due diligence and see if they would have granted the loan knowing about the foreclosure. Most banks would not and will call the loan, making you responsible for paying immediately.
