Struggling with Rising
Mortgage Payments?

If you're saddled with a difficult mortgage and rising payments, Endura Financial Mortgage Services may be able to help.

During the height of the real estate boom, low-interest adjustable-rate mortgages were an enticing option. But the low initial rates of ARMs that were written a few years ago are beginning to reset, often outside of the affordability of borrowers. This has led to an increase in foreclosures across the country – up 55% from last year in the first half
of 2007.*

Avoid Foreclosure
If you have an adjustable-rate mortgage, you might have seen your mortgage payment begin to adjust upward recently. Perhaps you cut some luxuries from your budget at first, and made the higher payment without a problem. But then the car broke down and your hours were cut at work, and little by little, you're getting in over your head.

If unexpected expenses, job loss or rising payments are causing you to fall behind, it's best to head things off before they get worse. Contact the lender that handles your mortgage as soon as you realize you might miss a payment. Mortgage issuers are often willing to work with you to come up with a payment plan, or allow you to temporarily reduce or suspend your payments. Don't ignore the letters or calls from your lender. Once the foreclosure process begins, it can be difficult to stop.
