How Xpert Seller is Helping Homeowners Exit Gracefully, Avoid Forec<\/strong>losure, and Retain Equity<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Loss mitigation has traditionally been a complex and labor-intensive process within mortgage servicing, often requiring manual intervention, detailed paperwork, and prolonged communication with distressed homeowners. Unfortunately, these efforts frequently ended in a foreclosure sale. With more than half of these foreclosure sales becoming REO inventory, even more losses are incurred by the servicer and beneficiary as carrying costs, legal fees, property preservation fees, and a host of other expenses continue to mount for the servicer and the investor behind the defaulted mortgage. In the past, this process was the only option for servicers, as the vast majority of homes with defaulted mortgages were deeply underwater. The opposite is true today, giving servicers the option of helping homeowners sell their homes, realize the equity from the sale, and make a graceful exit.<\/p>\n

Early Intervention & Homeowner Options<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

There are numerous ways that servicers can assist homeowners as they start to miss mortgage payments. The best method is to be in contact with the borrower when they miss their first payment to ascertain the likely path they are headed towards. More often than not, the missed payment was just an oversight, but for some, this is the first step towards a long slide into default. Identifying the issue early and helping homeowners learn about their options, especially if the owner has equity, is crucial. An owner with equity can sell their home now, avoid negative impacts to their credit rating, and walk away with cash. The trick is minimizing sale transaction costs and commissions so the homeowner walks away with as much of their equity as possible.<\/p>\n
