Refinance. The truth is lenders will work with you if they see that you are being truthful with them and that you are able to make your payments. This is probably the toughest method and requires that you stay after the bank until they get your loan finished. The obvious requirements are having equity in your home, a job with steady income and of course the ability to pay meaning your bills are less than your income. In some cases payments could be higher but a fresh start is better than the alternative. This is not the best route for most, but it is a route.

Enlist the support of your family and friends. Sometimes bringing in the family is a viable alternative especially on a short term solution. Let’s face it, we don’t like admitting to family that we have fallen behind, but usually they are the most willing to help. Don’t let pride get in your way of asking for help. Here is the best advice when doing business with family, be sure to treat it like you are dealing with the bank and make sure you do all the proper contracts just in case things go sour.

File Bankruptcy. In reality there used to be an awful stigma about going into bankruptcy but being that the US Government went bankrupt in 1933 and just the shear amounts of people who are going bankrupt now makes it a means to an end. Of course it has serious implications for your credit but if you are late on everything and your credit is already destroyed this might be a viable option. Just be sure that your job is not bankruptcy sensitive as some employers might fire the employee over a bankruptcy. This method definitely halts creditors in their tracts but also know that it does not always prevent a foreclosure. Seek an attorney’s advice on this matter.

Wholesale your property. If you have equity and can sell you property to a wholesaler and start over this is probably the best option in a soft market as most everything is selling for 60-75% on the dollar. It is very hard to sell retail when nothing is selling for retail and credit is hard to obtain. It maybe that you can get out of your property and you can pick up a better deal with lower payments.

Hire a consulting service to help you with your “work-out”. Now we are not talking about jumping jacks, we are talking about re-organizing, restructuring or refinancing your debt. There are experts that you can retain but beware of the people who charge an upfront fee and read any agreement you sign very closely. In fact, it would be wise to get legal counsel to review it. Allow your counselor to field the collection calls and make you aware of your rights. Definitely shop around for these services and check references.

The key to avoiding foreclosure is to know your options and take action until you win. Giving up and giving in to the bank simply is not an option. You have right and you have five ways to avoid foreclosure now it is time to take the action.
