Mortgage Help and Foreclosure Assistance from Freddie Mac.
Numerous national and local non-profit organizations have joined with Freddie Mac to open Borrower Help Centers in cities across the nation. Find details below. There are locations in most major cities, including Phoenix, Chicago, Washington, DC and San Bernardino all will have the centers. They are designed to provide free and confidential mortgage counseling to delinquent Freddie Mac borrowers and other struggling homeowners, regardless of who your mortgage servicer is.
In addition, the company is also launching a separate Borrower Help Network which will be offering similar mortgage counseling over the phone to targeted Freddie Mac borrowers, no matter where they live. The amount of free advice, assistance and counseling offered will be extensive. In addition to helping borrowers get back on track with their mortgage payments, the financial counseling that will be offered goes beyond just dealing with mortgage issues. They will review a homeowners overall financial condition.
For example, the counselors will review an assessment of the borrowers overall outstanding debt and credit. The goal is to address any issues or financial obligations could affect a borrower's ability to stay up to date and current on their mortgage payments after a loan modification has been agreed to. Find other resources that can provide debt help, including credit card hardship programs and debt management plans.
Freddie Mac is one of the leading government organizations that is providing aid. They generally help thousands of borrowers avoid foreclosure through forbearance, loan modifications, various repayment plans and other workouts and solutions. This also includes principal reductions and modifications under the federal government programs or local charities.
The services are free. The Borrower Help Centers are currently proactively reaching out to and contacting delinquent borrowers identified by Freddie Mac and they are scheduling appointments with these homeowners. In addition, delinquent borrowers who know Freddie Mac owns or services their mortgage can also schedule free appointments by contacting the Borrower Help Center in their community on their own, so they do not need to wait for a phone call.
Mortgage help from Freddie Mac
There are mortgage counselors who work at each Borrower Help Center. They are all highly trained to review Freddie Mac and Making Home Affordable workout requirements and solutions with their clients. They will do what they can to prevent a foreclosure, and help keep the borrower in their home.
These counselors will also work closely with the homeowner and they will provide one-on-one guidance to help borrowers apply for loan modifications, they will help them supply missing information or documents needed to move an application forward in the process, provide advice on how to stop a foreclosure, and they will work with Home Retention Services, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Stewart Lender Services, Inc. All of these steps are taken to help borrowers effectively connect with their lenders, banks, or mortgage servicers.
One of the main benefits of this program is that the counselor will even work with the borrowers on other outstanding issues, such as credit cards, automobile loans, and other types of debt. So the options offered by Freddie Mac are extensive.
