With the piles of vacant properties already crowding many area’s real estate inventory across the nation and a great many home owners are having their credit rates gutted as many homes fall into foreclosure, many banks are turning to alternatives to standard foreclosure proceedings.
In a regular foreclosure, the lender assumes title to the property after a home owner has neglected to pay the mortgage for a length of time. The homeowners are then evicted and a black mark appears on their credit rating. There are some problems with this form of foreclosure if you consider the context that they’re occurring in. There are such great quantities of homes undergoing foreclosure as well as all the homes that have already been foreclosed on that there are thousands upon thousands of homes across the country which are now standing vacant.
Many lenders are allowing borrower, instead of a traditional foreclosure, to undergo a “deed in lieu” procedure which allows the resident to voluntarily turn over the deed to the home with less of a credit rating penalty. One of the biggest benefits to lenders when using this type of option is that home owners are far less likely to vandalize the property when they leave. In many homes across the country, when home owners are evicted by their lenders, they have taken out their frustration on the home and taken appliances, plumbing, electrical wires, and other built in features out of the house to sell it or even just destroyed the home so that it would be worth very little to the bank.
Some “deed in lieu of foreclosure” programs offer borrowers incentives to help them re-establish themselves in other locations. Many include a cash incentive to help residents move, while others actually let residents stay in the home for up to six months.
Due to the long processing time of foreclosures and the high costs to lenders that can add up, there is a lot of incentive for lenders to offer home owners a more dignified way to walk away from a home that is worth less than what they owe on it and often can no longer afford to pay mortgage payments on. With almost a quarter of all home owners with mortgages having an underwater mortgage at this time, it’s good business for lenders to offer their clients a way out of a bad situation without destroying their credit in the process.
