FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. How long does it take for you to
complete the case once we fill out all of the
paperwork?
A. Your case can be completed in as little as
2 days or your case can be stretched out up to a year depending on
your situation and financial capability. The length of time for a
workout approval may also largely be dependant on the reason for
your default. Our goal and your goal is to save your home from
foreclosure. We will spend as much time as necessary to reach that
goal.
Q. How successful and experienced is
your firm at resolving foreclosure?
A. Our success rate is over 95%. The cases
that are not successful are usually the situations in
which a client does not provide accurate information regarding their
current situation (example - bankruptcy, financial data, taxes, or
employment).
Q. Do I have enough time to stop my
foreclosure?
A. Until the auction occurs there is enough
time for a homeowner to stop their foreclosure. TIME IS OF THE
ESSENCE, and action should be taken as soon as possible. For
homeowners with a sale date set for their property, the process
moves much more quickly. We have even stopped foreclosure the
same day we were contacted. Your situation can be resolved up
until the day before the sale, but it is highly recommended to act
as quickly as possible.
Q. What advantages are there in using
Mortgage Solutions Group services instead of other mediation or debt
consolidation firms?
A. We are so confident in our services
we will put it in writing. Other foreclosure prevention
companies may attempt to resolve your situation, but are
unsuccessful due to inexperience and lack of market knowledge.
When this occurs, you lose valuable time and often cannot ultimately
stop your foreclosure in time before auction. Mortgage
Solutions Group is not attempting to buy your house at a discounted
price like many foreclosure companies out there. We are
foreclosure mediators and will carefully analyze your financial
situation while finding the best solution for
you.
Q. What is the cost for you to mediate
and stop my foreclosure?
A. A consultation to analyze your specific
situation is completely FREE. One of our qualified consultants
can evaluate your case and explain your best options to save your
home, often times at no cost. Once a complete evaluation
occurs, a price will be determined. Please call us toll free today
to better understand your current situation and options at
877-275-2423.
Q: My credit is bad, am I
wasting my time?
A: No. Almost everyone who has
fallen behind on house payments have had some credit problems in the
past. We help people regardless of credit.
Q: Why did my mortgage company
send me my payment back?
A: After your mortgage company
accelerates your loan, they no longer accept a payment less than the
full amount due. They are likely to send it back to you,
asking for the whole amount. The reason for this has its
origin in case law.
Q: What do I do if someone stops
by the house?
A: It is possible that investors or bank
representatives will come by and look at your house. This is
their way of evaluating the condition of the collateral on your
mortgage. The bank may be checking that it is not
vacant. It is up to you, the homeowner, whether you want to
let them in or not.
Q: How much time do I
have?
A: In Wisconsin, the average time from
receiving your initial court papers to the foreclosure sale is about
8 months. Time is no friend when you’re behind. Take steps to get
yourself caught up. The longer you wait, the more you pay in court
costs, late charges, and attorney fees.
Q: Can Mortgage Solutions Group help
with my other bills?
A: For your other bills, we recommend you
contact non-profit counselors that can be found in your local phone
book or by contacting the county you live in.
Q: I’ve received papers from the
court. Do I have to attend on the hearing day?
A: You have the right to appear, but are
not required to do so. The purpose of a hearing is for the
mortgage representative to validate the debt. They show the judge
that the loan made to you was a legal one, and request that a
judgment for foreclosure be granted. These hearings are a swift
formality done by rubber stamp. If you feel the mortgage company has
not properly posted your payments, or is wrongfully foreclosing, you
have the right to explain your position. If not, then your time is
probably better spent at work earning a
living.
Q. Can I get
help immediately?
A. Yes. You may apply for assistance right now
online or call us toll-free at 877-275-2423.

credit management organizations in the nation. If you feel that you

sell your home before a foreclosure sale has taken place.
