My mortgage lender, Green Tree, is really pushing me to NOT let a foreclosure happen. They have convinced me to make one more payment to allow enough time to put my townhome up for sale for 60 days. Then if no bites or short-sale, that they will consider a deed-in-leau of foreclosure. They claim they will not pursue a deficiency and that I will not be getting a 1099 at the end of the year.
I'm unemployed right now, 2+ months behind, in michigan, owe $150,000 on my first, owe $25,000 on my second. Other units similar to mine have been auctioned off for between 25,000 and 50,000. Not sure how many have been sold on a short-sale.......
I meet with a real estate agent tomorrow. Does this sound like a good idea? What are the odds of a good outcome? Is the mortgage company just blowing smoke up my wazoo? I do not want to fork over $1300 chasing this pipe dream, while it just delays the inevitable........
Need some advice, you guys and gals have been invaluable over the last month or two. Thanks in advance.
