Most Common Loan Modification Scams Out There


Four Common Signs of a Loan Modification Scam

Choosing a loan modification service provider can be very difficult; especially when you have the added pressure of a possible home foreclosure. Unfortunately, you still have to keep your eyes open to scam artists trying to make money on false promisses and misinformation. Principal Mitigation Corp wants to make it easier on you by giving you a heads up when scouting for a company you can trust. PMC is that company, and you will not see us saying or doing any of the following...

1 :. "Simply sign the enclosed contract and send it back immediately. Your
counselor can go over the details later once we stop your foreclosure."

Know what you are signing. Read and understand every document you sign. If a document is too complex, seek advice from a lawyer or trusted financial counselor. Never sign documents with blank spaces that can be filled in later. Never sign a document that contains errors or false statements, even someone promises to correct them later.

2 :. "Now that ABC Company is involved, please remit all future mortgage
payments directly to us. We will forward these payments to your lender
on your behalf."

Make your mortgage payments directly to your lender. Never give a mortgage payment to a third party who promises to make the payment for you.

3 :. "We guarantee to stop foreclosure immediately and save your home."

Keep an eye out for a company "guaranteeing" to stop foreclosure, allowing you to remain in your home. Illegitimate or unrealistic promises can be a sign the person making them is not obligated to assist you and your financial situation. This person is unlikely to provide services that will actually help you.

4 :. "Stop paying your mortgage; your lender will only grant you a
modification if you're three months behind on payments."

Never trust anyone who advises you to stop making payments on your mortgage. This inevitably digs you deeper into past due payments, worsening your situation.
