NAMAR is Helping Homeowners Stay in Their Homes

Every day millions of American families struggle to make their mortgage payments and hold onto their homes, unsure of where they can turn for help. Fortunately for these homeowners, the Northeast Atlanta Metro Association of REALTORS® (NAMAR) is there to answer their foreclosure questions.

NAMAR launched Unnecessary Foreclosure, a website designed to provide answers for homeowners who are in danger of loosing their homes. The website is a wealth of information with links, videos and tools, all designed to educate and provide awareness, including information about mortgages that could cause future trouble, a list of nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping consumers avoid foreclosure, the warning signs of predatory lenders and detailed information on short sales.

The most useful information on the site is a list of common solutions that can be reached with a lender. Forbearance, repayment and loan modification are just some examples of the topics that can be discussed with lenders.

The best part about the NAMAR site is that everything is written in easy-to-understand language. You don’t have to be a loan expert to navigate through the tips or advice, just an average American with a home and a mortgage.

The thought of loosing a house is both scary and stressful for any homeowner. The best way to protect yourself from foreclosure is to be knowledgeable. Do your research, know your options and make sure to check out the NAMAR site. It is the perfect place to learn what resources are available to you.
