161,997 Opportunities To Save a Home

Help Current Clients, Attract New Ones

Foreclosure actions will be brought against more than a half-million homeowners in the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut areas where FA readers live over the next four years. But an estimated 161,997 can be saved with a properly-done mortgage modification.

This year alone, 175,765 foreclosure actions will be brought, but 66,741 can be saved.

All this comes from the Center for Responsible Lending, which projected the number of foreclosures for each of the nation’s congressional districts, and David Green, a nationally-known real estate attorney, who estimated the number that could be avoided by a mortgage modification. This is a new loan structured to be more affordable than the homeowner’s current one.

Financial advisors are the key to the successful completion of these “mods” and are compensated by Green’s firm for their referrals and time counseling their clients and working with a Green representative.

With tens of thousands of homeowners affected, this is fertile ground for advisors to increase their incomes, enrich their reputations and generate referrals,” Green said.

These pages show the opportunities in FALand’s congressional districts. Interested advisors should email their names and phone numbers to mods@bankattorney.us

Besides mortgage modifications, there are other loss mitigation techniques on which advisors can counsel their clients. These will be discussed in the September FA.
