Is it possible to reverse a foreclosure sale?

It is possible, but hard. You need to immediately file a reversal of foreclosure sale with the mortgage company. If this doesn't work and the property becomes an REO (Real estate Owned- goes back to investor), then you have other options. If it's a Fannie Mae home, you have options. Options may include having the loan reinstated, you can negotiate a new loan, you can rent from the investor for a period of time and then re-buy the home within a period of time. This is not easy and you should always consult an attorney for legal advice. Foreclosure is not always the end as many people think, it's just sometimes the beginning of a new process.

Short sale or foreclosure?

Short Sale:

Now, for the sake of argument, let’s say the value value on the property is only $80,000. This is what an investor, someone like us, would be willing to pay for it. If we paid any more, with all the repairs we have to do, holding costs, paying utilities, insurance and taxes on it for a few months then selling to someone else, we would never make a profit on the house – and we are a for profit business. A buyer would not be willing to pay more than the $80,000 value of the home.

This means you can’t sell your house, because you know that you’d have to come up with the 20 grand difference there to pay off your mortgage balance. The lender is not going to sell it unless they approve a short sell. In other words the lender can allow you to sell your house for less than what you owe.

Go to the mortgage company, or the person holding your mortgage, like Wells Fargo, Bancorp South, Citibank or whoever it is here locally. You have been paying 600 or 1,000 bucks a month for the past few years, and hopefully you have built a good relationship with them. You can talk to them and see if they would consider selling less than the mortgage value. This is a short sale.

Foreclosure:

When you bought your house, you most likely signed a mortgage. That is an agreement on your part to pay back your loan according to the terms set forth from the beginning. If you stop making payments for any reason you have failed to deliver on your end of the contract. The lender has the right to take back your home and attempt to recover the money they loaned you by selling the property.

Missing a payment by a day or so is usually not much of a problem. Lenders are human too and most of them offer a 15-day grace period. There may be a late fee, but it beats losing your house. However, if you haven’t paid your mortgage for an extended period, the lender will probably start foreclosure proceedings. It can take anywhere from 2 to 12 months to complete, depending on where you live.

It’s a long and involved process for the lender, and this may give you time to take action and hopefully save your home. Here are three things you can do to get the best possible outcome when facing foreclosure.
