Foreclosure is one of the worst dangers Denver homeowners can face. If you are missing mortgage payments, avoiding foreclosure with careful planning and negotiation is possible. Here are some tips to help you keep your home:
Don’t Ignore Your Lender
If you’re behind on payments, keep in touch with your lender. Though it may be stressful to confront the problem, ignoring it will only worsen it. Be sure to read all communications from your lender and contact them when you realize there’s a problem. Sometimes, lenders will have options to help you if you cannot make payments.
Understand Your Rights
Revisit the fine print of your mortgage agreement. Understand when and how your lender can take action if you are behind on payments.

Reevaluate Your Budget
Examine your spending and cut unnecessary expenses, like cable TV and other entertainment. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recommends that you prioritize mortgage debt over “unsecured” debt like credit cards.
Use Trusted Resources
Some companies offer help negotiating with your lender to prevent foreclosure, but these services, while sometimes legitimate, can be costly. There are many HUD-approved foreclosure prevention counselors in Colorado that will help you avoid foreclosure for free or at a low cost.
