What is Forbearance?

by Don DeHanas, Broker

With the economic chaos brought about by COVID-19 I have had a number of homeowners tell me their banks will allow them to delay payments for 3 months, with some banks requiring payment in full on the 4th month, and others allowing the seller to pay off the 3 months at the end of the loan or when the home is sold.  While this may be the only recourse to save your home, it does come with some negative "side-effects".

Unfortunately, there is a significant amount of misinformation regarding Payment Forbearance related to the CARES Act and the impact on homeowners. Since the CARES Act prohibits Lenders from reporting Late Payments to the Credit Reporting Agencies many people are operating under the assumption they can just skip making payments without any negative repercussions. What started as Mortgage Payment relief has spread to every type of credit. We are seeing prospective Buyers entering Payment Forbearance plans on every type of credit Car Loans, Installment Loans and Credit Cards. Regardless of what the Government intends you cannot stop making payments on Credit Accounts without it hurting you!

Forbearance basically means you cannot pay on your debt. That is exactly how a lender will see it. And that information will be used when considering your next loan. While a creditor is prohibited from reporting the payment to the credit bureau, they will list it as either "Forbearance", "deference", or "modified", which will make it very difficult for you to obtain a new line of credit.

Regardless of what the Government says, going into a forbearance will hurt you. It is best to consult with a financial advisor to determine if this is the best course of action.  

Tips for Real Estate Investors

by Don DeHanas, Broker

If you are a real estate investor, or are considering investing, or maybe you want a bit more info before jumping in, the first place to begin your preparation is with your financial portfolio. Since most homes are in need of renovation, available financing for investors is generally limited to cash, or hard money. Using cash to purchase the home will help you to avoid financing fees, but this is not always an option, especially for first time investors. Those with limited cash on hand might choose to research Hard Money Lenders as a viable source. These loans are not regulated by the Federal Reserve, and loan qualifications will vary from lender to lender, as will the fees associated with the loan. Additionally, the investors experience will also dictate some of the fees. Generally, the more you use the same hard money lender, the lower the fees for using the money are reduced.

Here is a list of Hard Money lenders as included in The Scottsman Guide: Residential Edition:
