I am trying to avoid foreclosure and can file my taxes electronically all I need is a federal tax id for the company Teletech Holdings Inc. Any help?

I’m looking into buying a foreclosed house or possibly talk with a homeowner in the LA area who has a Notice of Default to take over the title and help them avoid Foreclosure. (Plus this is the only way it seems I can afford a place.) Does anyone know if there is incentive for someone to let their house foreclose? If not, why not make offers way below market value to NOD homes? I’m just trying to understand how the market works. Also, can you make offers on Foreclosed homes that would be considered by banks, or do they usually deal with specific REO banks and auction companies? Thanks.

Yes there is. You may contact the lender that is doing the foreclosure, tell them you have a vested interest in the property, and you need to know the amount that is owed to them to stop their foreclosure.
They might want proof so you might want to get a copy of your lien from a title company. Faxit to them as soon as possible.
Once you have this information, contact a foreclosure service in your locality, give them the information and they will foreclose on your behalf.
Some charge an up front fee and some don’t, so if you are short of funds you might shop around until you find one that take their fees out on the back end of the foreclosure. They will take over the foreclosure from the previous lender.
It does not matter unless you don’t have the funds because who ever pay for it will get it back if the owner bring the foreclosure current or the house is sold at the bid or sale.
If the house do not sale then you will have to come up with the monthly payment to the mortgage company as well as the foreclosure services fee, but the house is now yours.
I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.

My husband left active duty military and went back to the reserves. We took a 3,000 dollar a month paycut and are having trouble making our mortgage payments. We’ve had the house for 2 years and it’s a VA loan. Are there any mortgage payment assistant programs to people like us here in Colorado? We are trying to avoid foreclosure at all costs. If we could get help with the payments until it sells (houses aren’t selling in our neighborhood right now) we could avoid a big headache for us in the future. Anywhere we can turn to?

Yes, but only for the banks. They offer the banks incentives to modify your mortgage to a point. However, if you simply bought more house than you can reasonably afford, these programs are not meant to benefit you. Someone making $50,000 will not be entitled to stay in their $500,000 house that they financed with a “liar loan”. Ask your specific lender for details

Sure. I assume that the foreclosure sale hasn’t taken place yet. The first way to avoid a foreclosure is to talk to the bank. Most banks don’t want to foreclose, and will negotiate a forbearance or a new payment schedule if it is halfway reasonable and if they think you are willing and able to perform. Call the bank and offer to negotiate. Second, some states (e.g., California) have rules that allow you to cancel the foreclosure sale and reinstate the loan if you cure the default and pay the lender’s expenses at some time prior to the scheduled foreclosure sale. You did not say where you live, so I don’t know whether you live in a jurisdiction that has reinstatement rules. Call a lawyer on this one. Third, all states will cancel the foreclosure sale if you pay off the loan before the sale. This option is often unavailable, since you would not have defaulted if you had that kind of credit. I strongly recommend option #1.

My partner and I decided to buy together a home two years ago. He is unable to meet his financial obligations, and is considering to declare himself in bankruptcy. I can continue paying for my share, but definitely cannot pay for his. Is there any way I can escape from this loan without having a bad credit history? Any tips in how to avoid foreclosure or bankruptcy?

Last year my house was on foreclosure list but i talked to the mortgage company and they put me on a six month forebearance agreement and told me I had 6 months to pay them there $3,000.00 so is there any loan i may get and my house is worth $80,000.00 even through I still have this foreclosure on my credit

You should first try to work out something with your current mortgage company. See if they won’t refinance your loan and add the 5 months to the end. Before things get any worse, you could consider selling now. But you’re close now to the foreclosure notice. Best to contact your loan company tomorrow and try to work this out.
