Anyone who is behind on their mortgage, is worried about keeping up with mortgage payments, or wants to know more about the foreclosure process should attend the workshops. Anyone worried about foreclosure should seek help immediately, as waiting may limit options. The workshops are open houses; no pre-registration is required. The workshop will include a 45-minute presentation summarizing the foreclosure process. Participants will also have an opportunity to meet one-on-one with a foreclosure prevention counselor. It will help the counselor to respond to any concerns participants have if they bring the following any communication received from a lender or loan servicer, proof of income (e.g. recent pay stub), and a copy of the mortgage statement. Workshops are scheduled for the following dates, times and locations:
"The value in speaking to a county foreclosure prevention counselor is identifying options," said Barbara Dacy, executive director of the HRA. "More than 60 percent of households that have worked with one of the prevention counselors in 2009 have avoided foreclosure." Residents need not wait for the workshops to act. For more information or to speak with a foreclosure prevention counselor immediately, call the Washington County HRA’s foreclosure intake line at (651) 458-0936 ext. 542 or visit www.wchra.com.
